Article Text: Millersburg, O., July 19.--The hovel occupied by one Mary AMMONS, a woman of doubtful character, located in the suburbs of this town, was the scene of a disgraceful row last night. A tramp had been stopping with Mrs. AMMONS for a few days, and a couple of young bloods took a notion they would bounce him. So about midnight they loaded up with lightning, and went out and made an attack on the tramp, who, on being driven to the wall, seized an ax and dealt one of the besiegers a blow, which laid open his shoulder in a horrid manner. The tramp was tolerably well used up by being kicked and beaten. The gashed shoulder was sewed up.
