Personal Assault.

Marshall Herald of yesterday.

We

learn as we go to press of an unwarrantable assault made by Wes. Campbell, of tbe City Hotel, ou the person of James Hamilton, of the Terre Haute GAZETTE, in retaliation for a report of the ejection of the young .man who was frozen on last Tuesday night.

The Mr. Hamilton referred to is the traveling agent for this paper, and has been engaged for some days in^ Marshall working on our subscription list

at,

that place. The account published in this paper, of bow Wes Campbell, landlord, inhumanly kicked a man out of his hotel, causing him to be so badly frozen that he will die, was the cause of tbe attack. In a business letter Mr. H. says: "He (Campbell) is still trying to beat me, but it is too thin. He swore he would kill me but I still live."

The following acccount of tbe affair i3 taken from the Marshall Herald: Mr. McCarty, a couple of days after tbe fatal night, gave the following account ol his wanderings, as near as he can recollect, to one of our reporters. He says: "I went to the City Hotel and got my supper, and the landlord took my hat for it I then went into Denzsr's and Albert gave me a quarter to pay for iny lodging, and paid for my supper, but tbe landlord would not let me have a bed, and put m© out of the house. I don't recollect anything more until I awoke and found myself in the court house yard, on the walk (it was about 3:30 A. M.) I managed to get up, and went to the Krerman House,but was ordered away I then went across the street, where I saw a light, but could not get in went to the Madison House, and wa9 kindly taken care of.

BROWN'S YALISE,

Rabbi Brown Tells tho Story of That Myfchtical Valise to Indianapolis Reporters,

BOS. CARSOJf PBONOVWES £5E?eU S A FRAUD AN& A All BEAT.

A Tide ol' at Ciaeck.

The Following is from the Indianapolis Sentinel of this morning. Terre Haute is torn from center to circumference over tho whereabouts of and manner of disappearance of Rabbi Brown's valise and tho town is likoly to get a notoriety in consequence as unenviable as that of Indianapolis in connection with the theft of Eli Perkins' wardrobe. The Terre Haute papers principally give the St. Clair Houso version of the affair, and the Sentinel presents tbe Rabbi's view of the case. Dr. Brown says that on the morning of the lu:h of November, while on his way from Decatur uo Evansviile ho reached Terre Haute at 'i o'clock. As there was no train out ou tho E. & C. road, ho went to the St. Clair House, in company with others, and he supposed that in getting their baggage checked 'rriR CHECKS GOT MIXED, and he did not get the number corresponding to his valise. Leaving orders to be called at 7 o'clock so as to give him ample time to get to tho depot at S, ho retired. Tho call boy did not reach him for some reason or other, and awakening himself at 7:30,he hastily dressed and went to the depot without waiting for the street cars or 'bus. His valise was too heavy to carry. and retaining his check, he left his baggage. From Evansviile he wrote for his valise to be sent by express.

The proprietors of the St. Clair neglected to answer him until he wrote two or three times, and finally wrote through his attorney that unless the valise was sent to him he would sue them for damages. They then wrote, explain ing that the checks had been in son way exchanged, Mr. Kins getting Dr. Brown's check, and Dr. Brown getting Mr. King's. The valise cannot now be found, but Mr. King's bundle was delivered to him without a check. The valise contained, besides a few articles of wearing apparel and some books,ti following lectures:

THE LOST LECTURES.

I. Tho Talmud, (the ancient literature of the Hebrews) its ethics and litor ry beauties. 2.. The Religion of Temperance, or bow tbe chosen people keep sober. 3. God from a Jewish standpoint. 4. The Genesis of Christianity. 5. The Talmud on diseases of tie mind, or the devil as viewed by the ancient Hebrews.

C. The Talmud on Jesus. 7. The Jewish pulpit, its shame and its glory how it compares with tho Christian pulpit. 8. The modern problem of tho Southern people social, not political. !. The young men of the South and their present duties. 10. The American crown.

II. Women's religious and social, not political, emancipation. 12. Types of manhood. 13. The education of mankind. 14. Moses handling electricity, or the science of the Bible and Taluiud. 15. The works of man and the works of nature.

THE SUIT TO RECOVER DAMAGES. Dr. Brown is getting well along ii

years,

and expresses the belief that it would be impossible for him to replace the lectures. He has brought suit in tbe United States Circuit Coui at Evansviile for §15,000, W. Fre.l Smith, of Evansviile, being his attorney. The case will come on trial the April term. Dr. Brown is at a los to know how the fact that the suit had been brought has leaked out, as he has maintained profound silence on th subject, not desiring to injure the good name of the St. Clair House any sooner than was absolutely necessary.

The Journal of that city also publish es an enterview with the doctor ii which the latter makes about tho

same

statement as that given above. Mr. Carson, the proprietor of the St.

Clair

House, declares that no kind notice has been served on him of tho commencement*, of a suit, and it is nol likely that he would be kept in igao rancoofthe proceedings, had a suit been commenced. He ridicules the idea of a suit for $15,000 when Rabi Brown offered to settle the matter for twenty-five dollars. As stated in the GAZETTE of Tuesday last, Mr, Carson can prove by the bell boy, the night clerk, Mr. P. M. King, and two policemen, that Dr. Brown did not bring a valise into the hotel. That ho picked up the check which was intended for Mr. King. He now holds this check and declares that it representsa Aralice containing manuscripts of great value.

The bell boy says he met Dr. Brown and Mr. King at the street car and that neither of them had a valise. Mr. King carried a bundle wrapped in paper which the boy took charge of and carried behind tbe offico counter,where he checked it and laid the check on the counter. Dr. Brown picked up the check and watked ever toward the stove with it. As they had arrived together the boy supposed them to be friends, and said nothing about it.

Mr. Carson says he received a letter from Dr. Brown, dated at Evansviile, directing him to send a valise, which the writer claimed to have left at the St. Clair to Evansviile. On enquiry, Mr. C. discovered that there was no such valise in tho house. In a few days he received a second letter, which was answered by Mr. Brokaw, the chief clerk of the establishment, who informed the Doctor that he haa brought no valise to the house. A few days afterward, Brown arrived and had an interview with Mr. Carson. He represented that he had brought the valise to the office, checked it, and being in a hurry on the following morning had forgotten all about it. He finished by offering to give up the check aud settle the whole matter for twenty-five dolla.rs Mr. Carson told him he would not pay him twenty-five cents. Dr. B. lelt the house neglecting to pay his bill, and' Mr. Carson heard no more of him until the item appeared in the GAZETTE on Monday last. Mr. Carson is firmly convinced that Rabi Brown is a fraud and a dead beat, who picked up a brass check and thought to coin it into gold. As stated above Mr. King, the bible agent, is in this vicinity and is ready to testify that Brown had no valise when they came to the hotel together.

How a Clinton Mob Didn't Wollop Ed. Yiindever. When Crossley refused to testify yesterday,the persons whom Officer Vaudever has worked so hard to catch were of course released, there being no evidence against them. They and a crowd of their friends were on board the train on which Ed returned to the city, last night, and he came very near having a colision with them. The men had all been drinking and were noisy and quarrelsome,and as they have no kindlv feelings for Ed, the began to apply all sorts of epithets to him, as soon as the train started from Newport. Officer Vandever was accompanied by W. H. Cleland, who had visited Newport yesterday on business. Both were standing at the end of the car, and when the mob began to crowd toward them, Mr. Cleland quietly took off his overcoat and hat, placed them in the wood box, and faced the enemy. Ed placed his hand threateningly on his revolveV, and told the nearest ruffian ho would land him on the other side of Jordon if he made any attempt at violence. The rowdys surveyed their men, and not liking tho appearance of things in general, they concluded to retire gracefully and lot the mat ter drop.

BALDWIN WINS.

A Five Hauilrctl Dollar Wager. Wednesday evening, while Professor Baldwin was performing at Brownsville, a young man named Scott, who is quite skillful in legerdemain, offered to bet Baldwin that he (Scott) could tie him with a rope so that he could not disengage himself. Baldwin instantly accepted the challenge, and proposed to wager one thousand dollars against the proposition oi Scott. The latter gentleman did not feel like betting so much, but put up a wager of five hundred dollars. The affair caused a great excitement in Brownsville, and not a lew persons supposed that Scott would win. Yesterday afternoon by a special telegram sent to the Democrat by W. W. Vaughn, of Brownsville, we learn that Scott called on Baldwin, and was tied with six feet of rope. Scott after several vain efforts to disengage himself, acknowledged thrt he could not loose himself from the rope. Then after explanations from Mr. Baldwin, Scott also acknowledged that h^ could not tie Baldwin so that he (the professor) could not get loose. And thus did Mr. Soott loose the wager,and Baldwin, as might have been anticipated by all, was doubly triumphant.

After performing two nights at Brownsville, he went to Lexington, where he opens this evening, as a matter of course,to a crowded house.

Castle Carico.

Two men, Wm. Gamon, sentencsd for four years, for stealing a wbtch, and Charles Scott, in for two years for abducting railroad tools from the Vandalia road, were taKen to the prison, south this morning at 7 o'clock. This makes nearly seventy that Carico has .'transported."

Just as he had finished his supper at his boarding house, he became involved in a quarrel with George .Smith, who handled bim quite roughly. Lang started toward Wall street where he intended to have the matter settled as he was pufliug along Fourth steet, about half way between Main and Ohio, his umbrella, which wae thrown across his shoulder,happened to knock oil the hat of a passer by. The owner of the hat, Alexander Greininger, imagining himself in® suited, dealt Lang terrillic blow between tho eyes and landed him in the gutter. Lang gave utterance to one agonized cpy of "Police!" as he fell. The cry was heard for several squares in every direction, and in less than a minute a largo crowd was assembled pn the spot.

SPEYNX-IXEE CROSSLEY.

A ftusall Steal Saw Is Fonud In His Possession.

Yectorday's issue containod an account of the expected trial of Brewer and Shorter at Clinton in which Nelson Crossly, the convicted scoundrel, who, among his other crimes, is Bui|ty ol'having attacked Rev.

Plucky Parson—was expected to testify, having been brought all the way from Jeffersonville for that purpose. He was brought here under custody of Deputy Warden Page, a thorough official and a great favorite among the police and taken to Newport. Shortly after reaching there a telegram was received from the warden at Jeffersonville, stating that it had been discovered that Crossley had gone off with a small steel lile. He was searched and the little instrument found on his person. In private conversation with station house keeper Nott last night, he stated that if he could have Kept that filo two hours longer, he would have "GIVE 'EM THE si.ti'."

It seems that hi* consent to testify was only a ruse to ^ot a chance to come back hoping that an opportunity might be afforded lor escape. He is confined in the iron ceil at the station honse which he says is a groat harder to escape from than tbe jail at Newport. He will be taken bdek to [prison as soon as possible.

Tbe demuraage question is exciting considerable talk in railroad circles. The Superintendent of one of the roads has consulted some of our legal talent, and they are of tbe opinion that, should such a regulation be adopted, it should not be enforced. It is their opinion that a railroad company has a right to place freight in a storehouse or grain in elevater subject to the call of the consignee, who can get his freight after paying for the money advanced to the railroad company and the bill tor the storeage in the house of the party holding it. But a railroad com pany cannot charge a demurrage should the freight remain in the cars until doomsday.
