in the upper part of the country, made a most
brutal attempt upon the life of his wife this
morning, about o'clock. He commenced
beating her, when. to evade his fury, she at
tempted to escape by jumping from the second
story window, when he grappled her, and in.
ficted several violent blows upon the back OF her
head with his hammer, and stabbed her with
knife. Her screams brought assistance to rescue
her from his violence; but her injuries are of
SO serious nature that very little hopes are en-.
tertained OF her recovery. The brute was ar
rested, and has been committed to prison to
await the result of his assault upon his unhappy
wife.
