The 1ynshInrton RIot-Ac,s of Herolsm.

The Washington Riot--Acts of Hcroism.
The Washington Star, of Tuesday evening
gives the following account of the capture o.
the cannon in the possession of the rioters or
Monday, by the marines. The rioters sent
word that unless the marines, whom they had
followed with insults and threats, were instant
ly withdrawn, the pieces would be discharged
into their ranks:
"Captain Tyler on receiving this threaten.
ing message, Immediately gave the orders to
move towards the gun, and when the right Of
the line was nearly opposite it, General Hen
derson deliberately went up to the piece and
placed his body to the muzzle, thereby pre-
venting it from being aimed at the marines,
Just at the moment when it was about to be
discharged. The General was dressed in citi
zen's dress, and armed with nothing more dead
ly than cotton umbrella. He addressed the
rioters saying, Men, you had better think
twice before you fire this piece at the marines
He informed the crowd that the guns were
loaded with ball cartridge, and warned them
repeatedly to desst. All the officers repeated
ly warned the citizens to go away from the
spot.
"The General, finding that the piece would
be fired unless captured, instantly crossed over
to Capt. Taylor, and gave the order for ten or
fifteen of the marines to take it. During this
time number of pistol shots were fired at
General Henderson, some Of the parties stand
ing within few feet of him when firing One
platoon Of the marines brought their arms to
the trail, without cooking, and charged the
piece on run. Those in charge of the piece
instantly retreated, and dozen or more revol-
vers were discharged at the platoon, who laid
hold of the gun and were taking it away. A
sortie was made by the mob to recover the
piece, when Lieut.. Henderson ran up and haul
ed it across the street to the rear of the ma
rines.
A man ran up to the General within two
feet of his person, and was about to discharge
his revolver, when marine with his musket
struck his arm, causing his weapon to fall, at
the same time the General seized the villain
and marched him off to the Mayor, in whose
hands he placed him. The pistol shots now
ratified round like hailstones, and the officers
had great difficulty in restraining their men
from returning their fire. Gen. Henderson
and all the officers were constantly admonish-
ing the men not to fire until the command
was given but shot coming from the crowd
struck marine in the cheek, nflicting dread
ful wound, and several more being hit with
balls and brickbats, the soldiers could stand it
no longer; they poured in an answering fire,
which was stopped as soon as possible by the
officers"
The "Plug Uglies" shortly after left the
city for Baltimore, making a most precipitous
rush for the cars, after getting on board which
they behaved in remarkably docc manner,
presenting a marked contrast with their brava-

R5- A CARD.--l, the undersigned, having been un
der the treatment Of Dr. L. j. Czapkay although unso
cited feel called upon to give publicity 10 the efficacy
Of his treatment hoping that by doing so may be in
strumental in preventing others from experiencing the
fearful suffering and misery which experienced, and
which often result from the penicous practices of
pretenders. My disease has been that Of physical and
mental debility which is the result Of indiscretions in
youth. The agonies which ! endured are perhaps,
unnecessary for me to detail they are known those
who have experienced them. Suffice It to say, that
having called the services Of Dr. l.. j. Czapkay in
quiston, all the expectations which had formed of
him were more than realized | would therefore. re-
commend DR.. Czapkay TO all who may find themselves
afflicted with that dreadful maady-my object in so
doing being sympathy for suffering humanity, and a
heartfelt desire for its relief.
