nLSTARDLY ASSAnLT

Last night. about 10 o'clock, one Of the most
dastsrdly assaults that has been made for some
time past was perpstrated upon Mr.. ]. Hammer,
. shoemaker. Having job Of mending on hand
which he was anxious to finish, Mr.. Hammer con-
cluded to work q little during last night, and
while so engaged some unknown person threw q
brick through the window into the room where he
was working, on Four-and-a-half street and Mis-
souri, avenue. The missile struck him on the head,
inflicting an ugly and dangerous wound, which
caused the blood TO oW freely. After receiving the
injury nc repaired to the once DR.. Boyle en- Four
Hnd-a-half street, where the wound was dressed
and his condition made easier. The duty OF ferret
ing out the person who committed the deed was
entrusted to Detective Sargent, who set about his
task at once, and ths prospect is that the guilty
party will soon be arrested.

DEATH OF JOSEPH Il. BRADLEY, JR.
The citizens Of Washington will regret the an
nouncemsnt OF the demise of Mr.. Joseph H. Brad.
ley, IT,, who died yesterday, at II a. m, OF his
late residence on Congress street, near Road,
Georgetown, after brief illness. Dir. Bradley
was the second son Of Mr.. J. H. Brs ley ST., and
q promising young member Of tho Washington
bar. On the 18th instant Mr.. Bradley was taken
I'll with the pneumonia. Dr. Busey was his at
tending physician, but the disease had taken
such deep root that the efforts to save his life
were futile. Drs. Busey, Hall, Maeksll and
Peters, who Hers called TO his siek-bed, were IN.
firing in their efforts 10 restore him, but he con-
tinued to grow worse, and fer several days. past
life was barely perceptiole, but he retained con-
seriousness until about two hours before he died,
and seemed to realize fully his hopeless oondi-
tion.
Mr.. Bradley was born in this city, and attended
the HalloWell school in Alexandria. Intending
to adopt the profession Of the law, he attended
lectures at the University Of Virginia and at the
Yale Law School, and studied In his fathers
Office. His health, however, became shattered,
and his friends, believing that outdoor exercise
would be mere conducive to his health, he took
up engineering, and Joined the United States e1-
plOring expedition of the Istkmus Of Tehauntepec,
with which he was about year, and returned
with his health much improved. He was ad.
mtted to tho bar Of the late Circuit Court Of the
District on the 1Tlh q October, 1854 and has since
been in active practice. .- ~ "a
He gained high rank Is lawyer, and for one
Of his age had but few equals. He was known for
his Eealous adherence to the cause Of his clients.
Probably no gentleman Of the bar more readily
espoused the cause Of those unable 10 pay legal
fees, and he conducted many cases without cost to
the parties, not only giving his time and atten-
tion, but paying for the necessary Erits, sc. He
was the attorney Of the Washington and George
town Railroad Company for 6 number Of years,
up to the change in the directory last spring, and
as such successfully mapaged the cases Of that
corporation against the Board Of Public Works.
He formerly enjoyed large share Of criminal
practice, and will be remembered IS the Junior
counsel in the case Of John H. Surratt. or late
years he has devoted most Of his time TO civil and
equity business.
Mr.. Brady was forty-thTee years Of age and
for many years o member Of Trinity (Episcopal)
church and superintendent Of the Sunday school.
He was also one Of the founders Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, and its first presi-
dent. He had been married twice, his first wife
being Miss Henderson, by whom he has one
child living, and his second wife, Miss Duncan,
survives him with four children.
At IL o'clock to-day preliminary meeting Of
the Bar Association Of the District will be held to
take action on his death, and 81 II N. q general
meeting will be held.
The funeral will take place Sunday afternoon
at O'Clock.
