A belligerent individual.
--That all of the men inclined to the commission of warlike feats are not in the army is to be regretted; but that all are not is as true as preaching. Yesterday, Bryant Riley was carried before the Police Court, charged with perpetrating an assault on Wm. Trexier, son of Mrs. Nancy Liggou, without cause, and also for calling the mother of the boy sundry hard names, and threatening to maul the life enter her for interposing to put step in his unsocialy proceeding. The offence committed by Mrs. Liggon towards Riley was one which any mother would have been guilty of under similar circumstances. The lady expressed her entire willingness that Mr. Riley should exercise himself in feats of arms, but did not like the idea of its being done at her expense. The case was sent on to the grand jury, and defendant committed to jail for want of security for his appearance.
