a short time they began sparting with one
another and otherwise behaving them.
selves In a very disorderly manner, Gaud-
ing requested them 10 behave themselves,
whereupon they began 10 call him harsh
names, and ordered him TO go to much
warmer region than ours. This be did
not relish and told them to leave his
house, and came around from behind the
bar to put them out, when three
Of them jumped upon him and
began pulling his hair and beard
and beating him in an unmercitul
manner, the fourth (Gox) standing by
watching the proceedings Of the other
three. Mrs. Gauding, hearing the scutile,
ran into the bar from room adjoining,
for the purpose Of helping her husband,
when one Of the roughs (Newlin) left
Gauding and grabbed his wife, pushed
her against the wall and there held her,
in the meantime handling her pretty
roughly. At last freed from the roughS,
Gauding ran behind the counter, got a
revolver, and ordered them once more to
leave, and seeing that they would not go
be fred at Cook, the ball taking effect as
above stated. After the shot the scamps
yamoosed rather quickly. The officials
Of Martins Ferry arrested the parties.
Mr.. Gaudipg is quiet and peaceable
man, and Is much respected by his &C:
quaintances in this city, where he resided
for twenty-five years or more.

THE EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEPH DISTURBED.
The Paris correspondent OF The Times learns from

Joseph is much affected by the resistance offered to

The resistance does not come from the Mussumans
alone. Revolutionary Panslayism is behind them :
not with any hope Of defeating the occupation, but
to keep alive dissafection which will attract Bos-
mans and Herzegoyneso to Servla, the great focus
of Panslavio agitation. The Seryian Government
earnestly declares that il is Loyalty adhering TO s
conventions with Austria but this declaration IL
not implicitly believed at Vienna where the feeling
of irritation against serya is ON the increase hence
