ANOTHER ASSAULT ON A POLICEMAN.—ShortIy
after 2 o'clock yesterday morning a cabman was driving
his vehicle into Gower-mews, Gower-streot, when ho ob-
served something bulky in the roadway. On getting
down and examining the object he found it to be the body
of the constable on the boat, Police-constable Moore, 113,
E Division, who was lying in a state of insensibility.
With the aid of some men ho at once had the policeman
removed to the station, where mcdical assistance was
immediately procured. It was then ascertained that the
officer had been ferociously assaulted by three m )n, who,
after knocking him down, struck him with their fists,
kicked him, and finished up the outrage by taking his
truncheon and beating him most severely about the head
and other parts of the body. The fellows made off, and
have not as yet been heard of. The truncheon of the
officer was found in one of the adjoining areas in Gower-
street. The place where the assault was committed is in
the immediate neighbourhood of the locality where
M'Donnell was shot. The wounded man was lying in a
very weak state.

on the roads near the town, and was returning to the

ho lot go one so that ho might bettor manage the other

the horse he was thrown to the ground head downwards.
