We notice by the Titusville Courier that
Mr.. W. g. Plummer, the cd itor OF that pa
per, was the subject Of brutal and mur-
derous assault, on Friday evening last, at
the hands Of brute by the name OF With-
erup. Whatever the cause for the affair ia
no reason that man should be MANNED for
life bys bully. Everybody acquainted
with Plnmmer knows ihs. more peacaable
man never lived. Had this cowardly affair
happened here, Witherup would have been
withersd mp at short notice. As it is we
hope he may be punished.

The Cincinnati Commercial FOR 1872,
1t is our purpose that the reputation
which this journal has as a newspaper
shall not suffer detriment this year: and it
is our ambition that its character for indie
pendence, intelligence and impartiality in
the discussion of all questions of public
interest, shall have constant illustration
and increase.
The year will be one fextraordinarv de-
mands upon the daily press. Itis the year
OF the Presidential election of the long
session of Congress, and of the Constitu-
tonal Convention in Ohio; and the daily
newspaper will be in an unusual degree
important for the information of the peopIe.
We propose that this journal shall con-
tain all the news, irrespective of its influ-
ence upon politicians and their organiza-
tons, the rule and object beng the pubIi-
cation of facts that may be useful about
public men and measures, that the people,
knowing the truth, may be true to them
selves.
No expense or exertion will be spared
to make the record in the columns of the
Commercial complete as history of the
year. Abroad, we have the best CORE

or Paris. AT home, our Special Core
