A FIGHTING JUDGE.
Desperate RencOURIer Between an Tx
Tribunal and a Bank Cashier.

y n
Tribunal and Bank Cashier.
Rather an exciting affair, and one which
came near terminating fatally, took place
yesterday afternoon in the law Office of
Child & Smith, No. Cedar street, be-
tween Manson NJ. Brien, ST., late Judge of
the Circuit Court of Davidson county,
and o. F. Noel, Cashier of the Bank of
Commerce, College street
The case OF o. F. Noel as. NJ. NJ. Brien.
ST., a suit in the Circuit Court to recover
rent claimed TO be due upon a storehouse
owned by plaintiff, on the corner of Church
and College streets, which had been taken
possession of in 1864 by Brien Il Thaxton
Immediately subsequent to its abandon
ment by the Federal troops, was the cause
of the difficulty. The litigation had
commenced in the Circuit Court. and a
deposition had been read and one witness
heard when the court adjourned, Noel then
repairing the Office of Guild & Smith, who
were his attorneys.
He had been there but a short time
when Judge Brien came in and in a me-
nacing way threatened Noel with chastise-
ment if he should insist upon recovering
the rent of his storehouse. Noel replied
that the threat might be carried ont there
and then if the Judge should see TT,
whereupOn, Judge Brien raised cane and
struck at him, but the blow being parted,
il was renewed and fell upon the head of
Noel with all the vim the strong right arm
of powerful man like the Judge could
give il. They then closed, and a struggle
ensued, but by the interference of Colonel
Baxter Smith and several other gentlemen,
the belligerents were separated. Not sat
isfied, however, they again came together
and were again separated by the whole
party of fighters and Peace-makers falling
in heap together.
After they had regained their feet, Noel
drew a revolver, but Col. Smith hastily
stepping between him and Brien, prevented
fatal shot, Noel having to reach around
as he fired, aud thereby missing his aim.
The ball passed harmlessly into the wall,
and the combatants were then efiectually
separated.
A little later, Mr.. Noel was arrested, and
taken before the Police Commissioner, and
a policeman was sent in search Of Judge
Brien, but found he had gone home. As
the Judges residence is some distance from
the city, Commissioner Davis continued
the case until this morning, releasing Noel
on his recognizance. In the warrants
Judge Brien is charged with assault and
battery, and Mr.. Noel with malicious
shooting.

KIDNAPPING,

Arrest OF Veteran SawbOnes, i'm
CahOOt with Members Of the Legis-
Iature, for Running off Orphan
Negroes.
There were some rather startling devel-
opments, all things considered, in Justice
Wilkinson's court yesterday. An aged
negro woman named Maria Yeatman swore
out warrant against DIR. l.. ID. Hogle,
charging him with kidnapping and run
ming of TO Fast Tennessee, as a servant OF
one Of the members Of the General Assem-
bly,, her nephew, a colored orphan boy
only twelve years of age. The warrant was
placed in the hands of the colored Consta-
BILE, w. A. Sumner, who soon returned
with the Doctor in tow, and an investiga-
ton was proceeded with, which developed
the fact that three other negro boys had
been kidnapped in similar manner, and
taken away by several members Of the
Legislature, one OF whom was Senator
Keith.
Justice Wilkinson reserved his decision
until to-day, when the defendant will
doubtless be required to pay costs and
bring back the missing boy.

N. yesterday until g p NJ the rise was only
four inches at the wharf which il very

feet seven inches water in the canal, aud

The present prevailing weather will have
the happy tendency Of checking the rising
waters, and from the present indication,
we feel convinced that no apprehension
need be entertained Of a food ~ the Ohio.
The present channel depth is forty-three
