Murderous Assault-Arrests.

On Saturday afternoon last . eowaFdlY
and unproyoked assault was made upon 4
young man named r Hyer, and a son
of Ephraim Hcnkle. by party of five
drunken rowdieS, from strlngtown, whom
they overlook near Tie residence,of J. W.
Garlinger, on the Wilmington pike. HyeF
and Henklo were in wagon, and wished
to turn from the road into lane, across
the entrance ofwhich the Stridgtown party
were stationed--two Of them in wagon
and the others on horseback. Hyer re-
qulsted the party to move up and let him
drive into the lane, which they did, after
some hesitation and good deal Of swear
ing. After he had started up the lane two
of the party followed him. cnrSiug and
throwing stones, one Of which struck Hyer
and knocked him from the wagon. They
then set upon him and beat him until he
was notwithstanding his head and face
in a brutal manner,-and would probably
have beaten / i'm to death, but for the in.
reference of Mr. GSrlinger and Mr.. Bush
who happened to be near by and came to
his rescue. Hyer did not return TO cons.
ciousness until the afternoon Of the next
day, and is still, we learn, unable to leaYe
his bed. The party passed on few miles
up the road, still "spoiling for fight, "
and being unable to find any one to ac-
commodate them, stirred up a breeze
amongst themselves, and punched each
others heads while, On Monday a war
rant was issued for the arrest Of the men,
and constable Cole, Of Concord township,
arrested and brought before 2. W. HcOg-
ler, Esq :, of this place, Daniel Williams,
Isaac Post, Jesse Spuilock and James
Adams, charged as being the parties who
committed the assault On examination,
Adams and Spurlock were discharged,
and the others bound over to Court in the
sum of 5000 each. Failing to give bail,
they were committed.

Mr.. W. s. Furay, the "Y. S. +" cores
pondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, in a
letter to that paper, dated at this place, has
to say about Washington ani Fayette
County:
Theinhabitants Of the village of Wash
ington @. Il. are rather jublant, just now,
over the fact that the census shows their
town to contain somewhat larger popui
lation than Wilmington. They congratu-
late themselves, too, upon their recently
completed system of turnpikes, which ih-
sures uninterrupted communication be-
tween the vlllagea and the rest Of the county
at all seasons Of the year. In former days
Washington could only be approached at
certain seasons, through oceans Of slush
and mud, and at some. periods could
scarcely be reached at all. There are ira
ditions of how men used in winter to ride
on horseback through the fields until they
came within mile or so Of town. when
they would tie their animals to a fence or
tree and makethe rest Of the way on foot.
not daring to attempt the roads at all All
this is brayely changed now. The people
have been heavily taxed for these pixies ;
but they all see the money they cost has
been well invested. As soon as they have
recovered somewhat from their taxation,
they say they intend TO build a new Court
House, which they sadly need.

The Moral Amusement oftheAge.

=
There are but two menagcries proper
now travelling, all other exhibitions so
entitled being but q combination, possess
ing few inferior animals, employed as a
sop to the morality which objects to the
improprieties and indecencies of the cir
Gus ring, and generally concealing a gross
fraud in both geological and arenic mat
ters. OF the simon pure menageries in
fact as we'll as in name 'Brien's, which
exhibits here on Wednesday of next week
is uuquestionably the best, and under its
enormous six centre pole tent oncircles the
largest collection of large, ferocous, beau
tiful and rare beasts ever exhibited in this
vicinity. The advertisement furnishes a
catalogue of the leading representatives of
earth's multifarious quadrupeds and the
blue ether's winged denizens, and special
editorial re ference to them would be super
fuous, but we feel that the tribute of a
passing notice is due to his iron-clad
and sportiye Highness, the gigantic Rhi-
noceros, who has been enticed by liberal
use of Mr.. O'Brien's gold to leave his
haunts on the far distant upper Nile and
display himself, for the first time, to the
wondering natives" Of the New World.
He is a whole show-and by no means q
small one-by himself, and as an ugly and
impcnetrable marvel will doubtless hold a
crowded lepee. The lilllputinn ponies
with their monkey riders will afford a
world of the jolliest sport for the young
folks, who are also promised the uncom-
mon Eastern treat of ride in a royal hOu
dah, on the docle elephant Little Dollie,
There is evidently enough and to spare In
this unexceptionable and interesting exhi
bition to attract both old and young, and
on the eventful day designated the stay
at.homes will prove the exception.
