his seat for a few moments and at Bulls
Island Station man named Patrick McCor-
mick entered, somewhat intoxicated, and
claimed the seat. He was told that it was en-
gagged. He replied that they had no right to
four seats. and was apparently about to sit
down on one of the children when Mr. Gull
lou, came to his seat aud noticing the move
ment, put out his hand to prevent him from
doing So when he was struck a severe blow
in the face by Mccormick, cutting and bruis-
ing him considerably. Upon the train reach
ing Lambertville, an officer was called and
the man was arrested. A hearing was had
before Esquire Hayhurst this morning, and
Mccormick was ordered by the Justice TO be
committed to the County Jail to await his
trial. Mccormick was allowed to go down
the street with his attorney, and when he got
to Bridge street he decided that Pennsylva-

bridge, where he is basking in the sunshine
of fancied security.
