ear. The man charged with the cut
tino testified that lie saw the two men
clinched and ran up and parted them;

ASSAULTED THE SEER.-Samuel VIII
liams was before the Mayor this morn
ing charged with assaulting Lewis
Boswell on Sunday last. Itseemed from
the evidence that two colored women
from Washington who wanted their
fortunes told, went to Boswell's house
Sunday night. Boswell takes pay in
kind, and whisky is taken as readily
as cash for drawing horoscopes. The
two women had the precious liquid
one quart, the other a pint. The
party, among whom was the defendant,
drank copiouslv and row followed,
during which Boswell was knocked
down and injured. His outcries aroused
the neighborhood and when Officer
Smith entered the house he found him
stretched upon the floor exclalmlng
Let me die " His assailant had fed.
This morning there was an evident at
tempt on Boswell's part to hush the
matter up, and in his testimony he
stated that Williams merely showed
him down and that it was through no
illwill that the act was committed
The accused, however, was fined 81.
