MURDER

The word sounds harsh and ye, We have

About o'clock, a fight occurred atihe latter

Judge common occurrence at these esiae-
hshments Shortly afterwards he left in
company with German woman for Rock

Of the country, even his name being I'M
known, further than that he was called
Henry. She testiaes that two men follow

one Of them dropped behind and the ether
came M and struck her companion with
something in handkerchief The blow
was repeated, though she could not tell
with wha, i, was gwen. Al the second
blow he shrieked and fell dead: the man
then seized her to prevent her giving the
alarm, but she escaped and ran Il the near

This murder is enc Of the direct effects
Of the existence among " IF such vile and

TIE article in our la, issue on bridging
the Mississippi, fairly meets and answers
our worthy cotemporary Of the Burlington
Tsls3~agt. We never supposed that the
opposition Of Burlington arose from any hos
tiity to Davenport, but from the mistaken
idea that the bridge would prove an OBJ
s,rue,on 10 navigation As for this bridge
being eventually the means Of "gattng"
Davenport, Of that, as the editorremarks, the
citizens Of this place are most competentto
Judge, and ii they are willing 10 risk il, why
others surely need not complain.
