blows on the head, one cutting
the scalp for two and hall
inches. and another which bruised the

to alarm the neighbors.
In a short time, Messrs. Nolan, SHAW

wounded man, arrived at the house and
found that Mr.. Armstrong had revived,

them any assistance in the pursuit.
The parties, after arming themselves
started of in pursuit and traced the
ruffian to the house of Jake Ingleberg,

Duchaune had stopped for short time
but had left at Zen o'clock. They then
went on about two miles further to

he had been there or not, and was in
formed they had not seen him. They
then took the back track and took up .

The Susquehanna Floeds-.Tho Situa
ton Last Night.

Evening dispatches Of the 18th state
that the ice jams have turned the current
of the North Susouehanna through the
beautiful cemetery Of Kingston and
through the main streets of that place.
Fears we're felt that another rise of the
river would add to the great damage al
ready suffered in and near Kingston. The
Lehigh Valley railroad is so INSTRUCTED
by ice that it will take ten days to clear
it. From lWilkesbarre to Plsinville the
ice is damned into solid mass resting
upon the bottom Of the channel. just
below Wilkesbarre are the Pittston bridges
which are to be burned to save the bridges
below from being carried away by them.
Ice and water from the Susquehanna
have done considerable damage to the
PENNSYLVANIA railroad west Of Columbia
At Marietta canal boats were foated up
and lodged on the railroad track. and the
Columbia bridge was SO injured that trains
could not pass it.
The losses at Pittston are estimated at
half million and the place is again en-
dangered by the ice gorge above, which IS
| twenty feet thick for five miles.
