A Local. KNOCKED Down. About
8 o'clock last night, while walking up
Broad Water street, we were set upon
by two ruffians jumping suddenly out
Of Loyal's lane. One struck Us and
we measured our length in the high
way. Fortunately we fell upon n pile
of shells aud impulsively grasped one
in each hand. Regaining our feet we.
turned upon our assailnnts and pursued
them up the lane toward Union street,
where we lost sight of them. The To-
AGILITY was dark and dismal, there
being no street lamp nearer than Market
square. Had anything serious resulted
from the assault and the local becoming
defunct, we most certainly would have
haunted the Committee OH Gas shd
Lamps for such al outrageous and
pslpabe neglect of duty, in permitting
such an important highway to remain
in total darkness. II they cannot at
tend totheir duties let them resign, and
others can be appointed who will take
more interest i'm the lives and property
of their fellow citizens. 1t is the last
desire of Local to make himself the
subject of an item--we do not like any
such facts.
