The Custom UOCM Wnr-Lel ?a have | Mr. P.lnrlr omi *i-* IPeace." At half-past 9 o'clock, yesterday morning, Mr. Geo. W. Clark, the newly appointed and oona missioned Collector of the Fort, called at the onatoin house Opon the 'hito Collector, Dr.; A. G. Mackey, in company with Messrs. Thoa. H. Bazin and H. Judge Moore. At the time of calling, Mr. Clark had with him his commission from the department at Washington, and upon on tori ag, demand? ed possession of the o iii co, stating that he had borne on to perform the functions t of,his office, and stating that the > pro? perty and his accounts could he trans i f erred and settled as soon as .convenient. ' Dr. Mackey ruf used the demand in abti sivo and -violent' language, while Mr. Clark remained smiling and perfectly un j moved. At the requat of Mr. Clark at ' this time, Mr. Bazin"went to the office of Mr. Groves, the Deputy Collector, and requested his presence. Upon which Mr. T. J. Mackey, who was present, exclaim? ed very indignantly that the Doctor should not allow "this man to order ?cur Deputy. Bay the word, and he shall be kicked out of the office" To which, Dr. Mackey replied with an injunction some? what akin to the Republican maxim "Let ns havo poaco"- "Bo quiet, Thomas, I'll attend to ii" And Thomas, being thus abjured, subsided. Mr. Groves, the Deputy Collector, now came in, and upon being told by Mr. Clark that he (Mr. C.) wttB Collector of the Port, replied that he (Mr. G.) was Depu? ty .Collector under Mr. Maokey, and would go out of office with him. At this time the situation was pictur? esque. Mr. T. J. Mackey was scated at his doak engaged ia taking notes on a scrap of paper, while the other partici? pants were variously occupied. A pause of a ?ow moments was broken by Mr. Clark, who again informed Dr. M. quiet? ly and with utter nonchalance, that he could have ample and sufficient time to arrange his inventory and receipts of the publio property in his possession, but that he (Dr. M.) was removed, and that he (Mr. Clark) was now the Collector of the Port, and, as such, the business of the office must bo transaoted|solely under his supervision and control. Dr. Maokey then asked if he understood Mr, Clark to say, that he. Mr. Clark, sat there as Collector of the Fort? To which Mr. Clark replied affirmatively. The Doctor then arose in great rage, and advancing towards' Mr. Clark in a menacing way, said, "You infamous scoundrel, you Massachusetts carpet-bagger, say that again, and I will kick you out of the office, you and the whole of your friends, Senator Sawyer who is a miserable dirty foul Massachusetts carpet-bag school? master, and C. C. Bowen, who is a ros cally scoundrel, and no better than Saw? yer. The whole set of Massachusetts men deserve to be driven out of thc country." The dramatic situation was then inte resting. Messrs. Arthur and T. J. Maokey were holding back the Doctor, who was almost livid with rage, anc ready to strike; while Mr. Clark, coolly sitting in bis chair, in a smiling manne; reiterated the assertion that he (Clark was the Collector of the Port. Dr Mackey was peculiarly bitter in his de nunoiations of the administration, stat ing that he was willing to give up hil office, with pleasure at the proper time as he did not wish to serve any longei under au administration and porty tba would, be guilty of saoh treachery meaning ? thereby the recent cou} d'etat by whioh his successor was ap pointed. He, Dr. M., was a South Ca rolina gentleman, and would not be die tated to by a Massachusetts carpet bagger, Dr. Monkey then rang a bell, in re spense to whiqh o colored man appeared who was directed by Dr. M. to call th boat bonds, for the purpose of ejeotin Mr. Clark. He then asked Mr. Clark i he refused to retire. Mr. C. replied, i a provokingly cool manner, still koepin his seat, "I do." At this .juncture Messrs. Arthur and T. J. Mackey prc ceeded to the window, and bur ried a the boat hands. They soon came in, t the number of some dozen or mon white and colored. After their arriva Dr. M. nguiu asked Mr. Clark if he woul retire without force, to which Mr. Ciar still smilingly refused. Upon this, Di M. informed him that ho had three m notes in whioh to make np his minc During the interval of three minute; the Doctor asked the boat hands, wb vero standing in the room, "Whose <> dors do you obey; mine or Mr. Clark's? They replied, individually, "Wo obe ?ou." The Doctor, T. J. and Arthi lackey then took out their watches, an announced the passing of the time. Bi this had no effect on the new Collecto who still retained his seat. Dr. M. i last announced that but thirty seconc of the time remained. Mr. Clark sti refused to stir, stating that he require no time, as he was the Collector, ac would maintain bis position os sue Still retaining his seat, Mr. Clark calle for a gloss of water. At lost the ord was given, and two of the boatmen seiz< ... -i II i vjvvjvtu uiiu iiuui HIV ui fice; without, however, using violence. Daring the interview. Dr. M. Btated his willingness to retire, provided Mr. Clark 1 outd sign receipts in blank, so that he wonld have the privilege of fill? ing them ont in oaso anything came short, remarking that he did not suppose that Mr. C. would be such an ass as to do it. "Yes," quoth the irrepressible Tv J., '-he'll sign anything." To which Mr. Clark replied "that ho did not sup? pose the Doctor was such an ass os to make so ridiculous a proposition." Dr. Mackey also asserted that he should, before giving up his office, re? quire a receipt of every piece of brick and marble nb out the building. He seem? ed to think that be could not be required to give np the office withont receipts for the property, remarking, that he did not know bnt that five pipes of brandy wonld bein Mr. Clark's cellar before night. Mr. Clark took this coolly, remarking that he did not know the full cuso of his (Dr. M.'s) removal, but that it might possibly be that the five pipes of brandy spoken of, are now in his (Dr. M.'s) collar. The interview thus terminated, as oar informant, an eye witness, tells us. What will be the upshot of the affair it is impos? sible to say; it is probable, however, that Mr. Clark will await instructions f om the department before taking any further steps. We can only shoot with all the vehemence of whioh we are capable, "Let us have peace." It may be added that the Dootor must have been in a torrent of indigna? tion for at least forty-eight hours, since wo have it on record that when Mr. Clark called upon him on Wednesday, the late Collector uttered the most abominable and abdominal damns he conld command in the category of impolite epithet. He denounced the President in unmeasured berms and bitterly, saying he had neither the right nor power to removo or suspend him. He gave Secretary Bo ut well a blow between the eyes, by shouting in ?ignantly, atfthe top of his voice: "As for the Secretary of the Treasury, ho is no gentleman, and has none of tho attri? butes of a gentleman;" and finally wound ap with the venerable Mr. Sargent, the Commissioner of Customs, by pronounc? ing him "An old fool, worn oat in the service, who didn't know the duties of bis office" The Dootor may be said on this occasion to have proved himself a veritable elocutionary breech-loader, but lie may find ont, before he gets through, that (however load he may explode ho carries a gun that kicks both ways.

July 23 2mo SUMMER PERILS-HOW TO BSOAl THEM.-It will not do to trifle with the hoa in hot weather. Vigor oozes through the a at every pore, and it is by physical vigor o that unhealthy influences can be baffled i repelled. The vital elements aro evapora in perspiration. Intense heat convert? a c into a self-acting pump, and the moisture t is pumped out of him is derived from tho ? springs of hfe within him. There is a gi need, therefore, that these sources of phys strength should be in a condition to b without danger or inconvenience, the extn dinary drain. If they are not in auch a co tion, the individual becomes languid and 1 spirited. The main thing is to keep the digestive paratas in good working trim; for if the mach, the purveyor of the system, doei duty thoroughly, the liver, tho bowelB, brain, and the nervous system, being i nurtured, will be likely to do theirs. In of these facts, it is manifest that a pow? and wholesome vegetable tonic like HOS'l TE It'H STOMACH BITTERS is especial!; quired at this enfeebling season. It is the i admirable of all correctives and invigori and for this reason-it does not over-stum the system. The proportions of aperient, t and stimulating components are so judicic graduated, that tho processes of invigori and purification go on simultaneously, an nndne excitement is created in the circuh or tho brain. AU unm?dioated stimuli I however pore, excite the pulse and the uer I system. Their exhilarating effect is tempo and when it panses off, the physical and tal depression they were employed to rei returns in an aggravated form. But thiel the case when HOSTETTER'S BITTERS tafean as a stomachic and nervine. The i cinat herbs, roots and gums with which are impregnated neutralizo tho exciting ciple of the rye spirit, which forms their I and which is, in itself, tho most wholosoi all the variotios of alcohol.
