He was too much for them, and four others
appeared. He was bound, a rope was placed
around his neck, and he was dragged
through the woods. The rope was then
thrown over limb and he was pulled up.
When he recovered his senses he was lying
on log. He was taken thence to grave
yard, where he was stripped. Tar was rub
bed over his body, and he was commanded
to roll ia several bushels of feathers. He
was then pulled with the rope around his
neck over stones and brush, and then march
ed to the village of Rome. There bonfire
was built, around which the men forced
him to march to music. The inhabitants of
the village turned out to see the sight, but no
effort was made to rescue the tortured man.
He was punched with sticks and terribly
treated. He appealed to the justice of peace
and constable for help, but they said they
could do nothing. Ten men marched him
around town, and each giving him parting
kick started him home, where he arrived
several hours afterward, nearly dead Be-
fore releasing him the captain OF the gang
ordered him to leave town within ten days or
they would kill him and his family and burn
his premises. The neighbors charge Dolph
with talking scandalously about all the
women in his neighborhood, which he indig-
nantly denies. Warnings had been given
him to leave the county in three days before
the outrage.

MackereI for Portland.

A Gloucester. Mass, despatch says that
Captain Solomon Jacobs of the Mollie
Adams, with the largest trip of mackerel of
the season, has received an offer of $50 per
barrel for No. is, and $12 for No. 2s, from
Portland, and will probably sail for this
port at once. His trip will net handsome
sum. 1t is probable that the trip Of the
Belle A. Naus will also be sold in Portland
The mackerel men at Gloucester do not make
any fair offers. The highest the fishermen
can get there is $12 cut of pickle. This
manner of selling out Of pickle is detri-
mental to the Gloucester fishermen, as the
ring is formed there, and Western buyers do
not buy direct In Portland better prices
are offered and the mackerel repacked, SO
that the mackerel catchers get fair price
for their fish, which are graded.
Captain Jacobs says that his experience
on Tuesday last was a most singular one.
He did not expect his vessel would ever
come out of the gale. He thinks the cause
must have been from an eruption UNDER
meath the waters.
