peace and got warrant for George F., his
son, charging him with assault and battery,
with the intent to commit murder. In due

THE Hon. ID. D. Pratt, Senator elect from
Indiana, will be a noticeable man in the
Federal Capitol if the following description
of him is correct: In person he is very re-
markable, being the taIlest man in the State
lie is, withal, splendidly pruportioned, and
in the Senate chamber will loom up head and
shoulders above other men. He NAV be fifty
years of age, but so exemplary has been his
life that he may be said TO have only reached
his prime. No n. would s,le him hand
some, at the same time he could not be term-
ed plain. There is peculiar roughness to
bis skin, almost like sandstone, which is
soften-d and relieved by the heavy brown
hair, that is generally in disorder. His eye
browS are thick and regular. and orerhang-
ing eyes OF singular depth of color and bril-
lianev. The peculiarly of his face is the
prominent forehead, which seems to run
down into the nose, making that member
rziher a continuation Of the forehead than an
independent feature. Crossing the gorge of
his mouth the chin also seems part and
parcel of the forehead. Taken as a whole,
these strong features are in admirable keep
ing, and give an expression Of dominant
energy to his face"
