A Erucns OF HouDdsWiie.

The Wheeling Intelligencer gives
the following account of an ARRAY, OF
of which Mr.. Clinton NJ. Miller,
formerly of Shepherdstown, was the
victim:
Captain Johnston, captain of the
guards at the penitentiary, was be-
fore Mayor Purdy, of Moundsville,
last night charged with assaulting
Guard Miller on Tuesday evening.
1t seems that Johnston has not had a
warm feeling for Miller since the late
municipal election, because Miller
did not vote to suit him, and last
Tuesday evening as the guards were
going off duty an opportunity oc-
Cured for him to make his dislike
known in forcible manner. 1t has
been the habit of some of the guards
to carry home with them small bundles
of kindling wood, and on Tuesday
evening when Captain johnson saw
Miller with bundle he called his at
tention TO the fact that it was against
the rules. Miller replied that they all
did it, not suspecting that Johnston
had any objections. But it appears
he was objecting more to something
else. A quarrel ensued, and finally
Johnston, who is a powerful man,
struck Miller five hard licks on the ear
Mr.. Miller is a quiet, harmless fellow,
and an active and consistent member
