Opposite Prairie du Chen, on Monday the
10th inst. While Mr.. DuEand was settling with
his clerk, whose name is not given, some dis
pute arose about balance Of S. which the
clerk claimed was due him. The clerk de.
handed the money, and Mr. Durand answered
that nothing was due to him, whereupon the
former left the store.
In short time he returned again and de-
manded payment Of the So. Durand answer
ed as before, There is nothing due to youa
where upon the clerk Immediately drew d
knife and thrust it seren times into Durand's
back, piercing his body nearly through. Du-
ran ran up stairs to his dwelling. and his wife,
who was near the period of her CONTINENT.
seeing. the blood aow from her husbands
wounds, was thrown into commissions, from
which i was not expected she would recover.
Al the time of sending the despatch, it was
thought impossible that either; Mr.. or Mrs.
Dufand could survive. Durand was peace
able, quiet man, aud was much respected by
the people Of McGregor and all who knew

has thrown the community there into q state
OF great excitement.
