Cutting affair.

--Edward Burke was sent to jail yesterday by the Mayor to await an examination for cutting and wounding John C. Harper. The latter mode of getting redress for supposed grievances is becoming too common in this city. If an example were made, it would deter many an offender, because of a wholesome dread of the punishment to ensue.
