A severs cut, extending from the mouth to within about an inch of the ear, was received by a negro boy, slave of Mr. Howard, on Tuesday evening, while engaged in the diversion of a rock battle with one of his color, named Jones, slave of Mr. R. J. Mitchell. --The incision penetrated through the check, and, if the boy don't die of lock-jaw beforehand, he will appear to give an account of the matter before the Mayor to-morrow.
