The murderous assault on Mr.. Alvan Roun-
dy, mentioned briefly in yesterdays paper,
was one Of the boldest outrages that has oc-
cured in this city for years, land the result of
the attack was very serious, but we hope it
will not prove fatal. The affair happened not
tar from ten o'clock, on Neal street, near Con-
gress, under some large trees, which made the
darkness Of rainy night very intense, and
prevented him from recognizing his assailants,
even if momentary struggle had occurred
before he was rendered senseless Circum-
stances indicate that he was struck on the back
of the neck by heavy weight, perhaps sand
bag. He was also stabbed in the lett breast,
just below the heart, with double edged
knife, which glanced downward, just avoiding
the heart and passed into the cavity of the
chest between the seventh and eighth ribs, but
did not enter the lungs. The cut is about an
inch and a quarter in length, and was probed
by DR.. Tewksbury yesterday morning to the
depth of two and half inches MI. Roundy
suffered much yesterday, the pain being in.
tense in the region of the wound. He was al.
30 confused from the effects of the blow upon
the spine, He gave his account of the affair
as follows: He says that before closing his
store he took his money from his drawer,
counted it (about $lO0) on the showcase and
put it in his pocket-book. After closing his
store he called at the stores of TWO or three Of
his friends and wicked up Congress street with
his umbrella spread, as it was raining hard a
the time. Turning into Neal street he crossed
diagonally to the trees on the opposite aide
but can remember nothing after REACHING them
xYvtt hn a.
tho sidewalk. With great difficulty he made
his way home, weak and faint from his wound
and the. loss of blood-now holding ON to tn,
fence, and sometimes almost creeping on all
fours. When he rang the door bell at hi
house, No. 131 Bracket street, he was yer,
bloody and almost exhausted, his clothes we
q and muddy. DR.. Burr was called in, VIII
dressed the wound, and after daylight Dr
Tewksbury was sent for. Mr.. Roundy wa
robbed of his overcoat, money, a gold watc
and chain valued at $780, and gold ring wa
taken from his finger.
A letter carrier boarding at No. 10 Nes
street states that he walked up Congress stree
few rods behind Mr. Roundy, and recognize
him as he passed street-light. Mr. Round
turned up Neal street, crossing to the wester
side of the street which is not lighted and
shaded by the large trees referred to. Th
carrier passed up on the eastern side of tn
s'rees 70 his lodgings, and went immediatel

WARRINGTON
Gen. Sherman ON Indian Aairs-NO Gen.
eral War Amtictuaeed.s

WASHINGTON, June N.-Gen. Sherman has
returned from an extended tour through the
West and Southwest, and is again in his Office
in the War Department to-day attending to
business. The General expressed himself much
gratified with the result of his inspection. He
has has given particular attention to Indian
affairs in the Southwest, and considers the ap-
prebension of a wide spread and devastating
Indian war along the Mexican frontier in a
great measure unfOunded. Iu regard to the
attitude of tide Indians on the Tatum reserva-
tioD, Gen. Sherman says it is true that they
recently manifested FESTIVE and hostile dispo-
sitiOn, and in case they do not observe their
treaty obligations, the first one of which is to
keep peace, he will recommend that the civil
authorities cease furnishing them with sup
plies and then see that vigorous measures are
employed promptly to repress and punish all
raids and other outiages. Although the In
dams number 1000, they cannot bring into the
field more than 700 or 800 warriors, and the
troops under Gen. Reynolds will prove ade-
quate to the service required The apprepria.
ton available will DO used to the fullest ex-
tent. The Secretary OF War has to-day given
orders for an immediate supply of 600 horses
to remount the cavalry in Gen. Reynolds de-
partment. Gen. Shermans views Of the stu
alton on the whole are much more hopeful
than many persons heretofore supposed. "

AN ERROR CoRREcTED-Ald. King in his
remarks in the Board yesterday in favor of hir-
ing Boston detectives to come here and try to
untangle the mysteryof the Roundy, assault,
cast an imputation upon the fidelity and abili-
ty of our police department.. We wonld like to
have him explain how an imported officer could
have better success than our own, where there
is absolutely nothing discovered as a starting
point for the work of detection. Immediately
after the assault was reported at the police Of
flee on Tuesday night, the Marshal and his Of
fcers took every possible precaution to prevent
the escape OF the rogues from the city by the
public cOnveyances, and in some instances sus-
peious looking strangers were temporarily de-
tanned and examined. Officers were dispatch
ed to the most noted thieves resorts in the
city. and when rumors were raised that certain
wel-known rogues who have been concerned
in such little tricks as this before now, were in
the city, the rumor was followed to its termipa-
ton. We have faith in the ability of our po-
lice. Some of the incest schemes of accom-
plished rascals have been unravelled Iby our
police in years past, and the rogues brought to
justice; and we ask Aid. King to direct us to a
robbery, burglary or crime of any magnitude
in the city during the present administration
that has not been followed by the arrest and
conviction of the perpetrators; while in minor
offences the success Of Marshal Clark and his
officers in bringing the parties to justice has
been very gratifying as the records of the Office
will show. If Aid. King knew the history Of
some of the delicate and difficult cases that
have been brought to proper conclusion, or
would acquaint himself with the duties of po-
lice officer, he would not have deprecated the
detective talent of our CITY,
