ASSAULT.--On Thursday last CHRISTOPHER LOCKE, a stucco man, a resident of Dungannon, left Loughgall for Kilmore.--
On the way he was overtaken by a man who asked his name ; while they were speaking, they were overtaken by two others, when the ruffianly trio beat Lock [sic] barbarously, and left him for dead. In this state he was found by two men, who conveyed him to Loughgall, where he now lies dangerously ill. No trace of the parties has yet been discovered.
