I1mcS tnls morning ls an cNupReru
ton. Messrs. Armstrong and j. II
Thompson, correspondents of Cleve
land paper, were assaulted night
before last, at 8 o'clock, by two
drunken men. Both were arrested
before midnight by the chief of po
lice, who is brother of one of the as
sailants. The citizens, without ex
ception, denounce the assault. II
was the result Of liquor, and entire
ly unprecedented.
Armstrong is acting as magnani-
mously in the matter as he behaved
bravely in tho brief fight. But
Thompson desires to be considered
a martyr, and is sending out sensa.
ton dispatches. General Burton
may try the assailants by military
commission, but the citizens are
anxious to show that the laws will
be vindicated. Whatever attempts
are made to show generalization, or
facts different from those above
stated are false.

WASHINGTON, July 3l.-Picrpont
opened his argument as follows
The real question of this case is
whether the prisoner was engaged
in aiding and abetting conspiracy,
which resulted in the killing of
Abraham Lincoln. If he was so
engaged he is guilty under this in
dictment, If he was not engaged
in the conspiracy which led to the
killing then he is not guilty of con-
spiracy. Being established it is the
we'll settled law-frst, That each
Confederate in conspiracy is liable
for the acts of every conspirator,
and the declarations of each may be
given in evidence against every
other, and though conspiracy may
have been formed years before the
prisoner ever heard Of it, yet having
subsequently joined in conspiracy,
he is in all respects guilty, as an
original conspirator.
Second, That when several per
sons are finally confederated in a
conspiracy, they are like one body,
and the act of each hand, and the
utterance of each tongue, and the
conception and purpose Of each
head touching the common plan, is
the act of each and all, and every
one Of the several persons forming
the confederate body is responsible
for the acts, sayings and dOings OF
each and all Of the Others.
Third, That tbeeOnspiracy 70 kid
nan. abduet or murder the President
Of the United States in time Of re
belIion or other great national peril,
