FATAL AFFRAY.-The Mount Vernon
Advocate gives an account ola fatal af-.
ray that occurred on Thursday the 81
inst, in Poin. Township, in Posey codn-
ty. in which five men were engaged.
1t appears that Andrew Mackey, at the
solicitation OF John Sutherland. went TO the
house of the latter. accompanied by David
Hines. Sutherland was at home, in COM
pany with his father. and the deceased, Stew.
art. After performing the service required
of him by Sutherland, Mackey set out on his
return home, accompanied By all the other
parties mentioned. On their route, and ut a
short distance from the house was IA slough
which the parties crossed in canoes. After
getting upon the opposite side dispute arose
between Stewart and Hines, which soon re-
suited in fight. Mackey being the friend OF
Hines, and the Suthcriands OF Stewart, they
eventually took sides in the fray, and the me-
| lee became general. Clubs, and gun be-
| longing to Mackey, were freely used, result
ing for time IN petty equal damage 20
both sides. Stewart was finally felled TO thC
earth BY blow from the gun, which fractur
ed his skull in a shocking manner, from tn,
effects of which he died on Saturday night
Another blow from the gun broke the arm o
the elder Sutherland who was subsequently
knocked down and badly beaten. Managing
| to get loose from his assailants, he plunged
into the slough, followed by his son, both o.
whom succeeded in reaching the opposite side
without further damage. Vile in the water
a shot was fred at ono of them, but without
taking effect. ...Ht
Mackey and Hines, since the death of Stew.
| art, nave both left for parts unknown. TIL,
civil officers are severely eensured for per.
hitting the perpetrators to escape.
