We notice by the Titusville Courier that
Mr. W. C. riummer, tbe editor of that pa
per, waa tbe subject of a brutal and mur
derous assault, oo Friday evening last, at
tbe basds of a brute by tbe name or With
erup. Whatever the cause for tbe affair I
no reason tbat a man should be maimed for
life by a bully. Everybody acquainted
with Plnmmer knows ibat a snore peaceable
man never lived. Had this cowardly affair
happened here, witberup would have been
wnnereu up ai aoon notice, as It Is we
hope bo may be puulshed.
We notice our friends J as. Mclllwilne

to the Infinite disgust of tbe females and
tbe amusement of the other ex. I greatly

to look out. Ofaourse be wasn't going to
let her fall out and be left, to be got a good

and "obtwlng" like puppies do your fingers

The lousing was tbe best part of the per
formance. She know ahe bad done wrong
in tbe auricular matter, and ought to be

so too, and If she hadn't submitted they

Several of them stood up now and then, t0

Tbe most important steel mine In tbe

A new town has been laid out on tbe Wot.
