Dastardly outrage at Portland.

--We learn that about midnight on Tuesday a gang of cowardly fellows attempted to assassinate the priest of the Catholic church, in the Ninth ward, Portland, by firing four shots into the window of his bed-room. Luckily they missed their aim, and only succeeded in the breaking of the window glass. The perpetrators of this outrage, or their object, are unknown. --Louisville Courier, 23d.
