ENGLAND.
The butcher Haynau, as he is called, received
quite cool reception in London. AS a slight
indication of the regard in which he is held in
that metropolis, give you the following ac-
count of his cool treatment. He arrived at
London on Monday morning, and to satisfy his
curiosity paid a visit to the extensive brewery
of Messrs. Barclay, Perkins e. Co. On inspect
ing the visiters book, the clerk discovered that
one Of the yisiters was Marshal Haynau, com
mander Of the Austrian forces. This fact be-
came known all over tho brewery in a very few
moments, and before the General and his com
panions had crossed the yard nearly all the
aborcrs and draymen ran out with brooms, dirt
and other such like weapons, shouting at the
top of their voices, down with the Austrian
butcher" together with other equally unwel.
come epithets. Haynau thought prudence tn:
better part of vaor and began beating retreat
An attack on him was commenced by dropping
trnsses of straw on his head, after which grain
and other articles of almost every kind were
freely thrown upon him. The men next struck
his hat in SLOUGH fashion over his face and
eyes, and jostled and husseled him very undig
nifiedly in all directions, and in all manner of
ways. His clothes were literally torn from off
his back
Himself and party finally succeeded in reach
ing the entrance gate, but no sooner had they
made their exit than crowd of coal beavers
seized upon him. He was pelted and struck in
every shape with every available missiles and
even dragged along on the ground, being pulled,
not very comfortably, by his ample mustache,
which afforded good facilities as Il means of
pulling, from its excessive length and strength.
AT this juncture the once stern and proud
Marshal OF the Austrians was compelled to re-
treat into public house hard by, where he con
eeacd himself in closet. The furious mob
rushed in after him, threatening loudly, but for
tunately for his highness they did not succeed
in discovering his retreat. Here the affair
ended. This assault has been the subject Of
much comment in all the English and Provin-
cial papers.
The effect which the death of Louis Philippe
will have upon European politics, is much dis
cusscd in the English journals It is generally
thought that the event will have the effect Of
arousing the latent energies of Prince de Join
ville--that the dispute now pending in the
Bourbon family will be healed, and an effort
made to place him at the head of the French
Republic.
The proceedings in Congress, at Washington,
arc also attracting much attention. The en-
grossment by the Senate Of the Fugitive Slave
BILL has been strongly commented upon.
The firm of Farris e. Co., cotton merchants
of Manchester, have failed.
The news Of the steamer Pacific was pub
lisled in London at 2 o'clock on the day of her
arrival. Her actual running time from New
