Local Matters.

SERIOUS RrNCoNrRE.-John T. Power was yes
terday brought before Justice Morsell, charged
with having committed murderous assault upon
Washington o. Berry.
II appeared in evidence that, at about eight
O'Clock on Tuesday evening, Berry, armed with a
pistol, rope, and cowhide whip, had taken friend
with him, and called at the lodgings of Power
that, upon learning that he was not at home, they
had left word that gentleman wished 70 see him
at Bcnter's cellar, on Pennsylvania avenue; that,
after leaving the house, they met Power; that
berry accosted him with severe and threatening
words, and that fight Immediately ensued, in
which Powers cloak was cut az with knife, as il
afterward appeared, and Berry received two stabs,
one in the shoulder and the other in the side. The
latter is a serious if not q dangerous wound.
Power was bound over for his appearance before
the criminal court in the sum Of eight hundred
| dollars.
II IL proper here to remark that the alleged rea
son of Berry's seeking Power. and approaching
him in mcnacing Language was that he had acted
with rudcncss OF disrcspect toward lady in whom
Berry Is interested. Berry carries on the Timing
business on 7th street, and is highly esteemed ~
an upright and worthy young man, and good
citiscn; and il is much to be regretted that any
provocation could induce him to expose himself in
90 discredtablc an afiray He was considered very
i'll yesterday afternoon, but could not learn the
opinion OF his medical attendants respecting the
probable Issue Of his case.
