An open way to quiet bay,
And port where ell are bound
Let the waters roar on the ice bound shore,

That can hold the human soul.
Murder 1t Mendoza, Lasalls County.
N We are informed BY Mr.. Gilman, Of Men.
dota, that . man BY the name Of Charles
Schnak, . German was murdered at that
place on Saturday night last, under the fol-
lowing circumstances There appears to
have been feeling of luminosity on the part
Of the Irish Catholics of Mendoza against the
German Catholics Of that place. The murder
cd man held the title to the Church lot
which was formerly owned by Catholic cit
izens Of both nationalities The Germans
and Irish had separated, the latter retaining
/, possession Of the Church lot, to which Schnak
! held the title, refusing to make q deed until
the Irish paid up the sum of money contrib
ueed by the Germans for ito original purchase
This circumstance had stirred up considera-
BILE hard feeling on the part Of the Irish to-
ward Schnak, and probably was the remote
cause of the murder. On Saturday right,
0Cnno3, Ool0& IN SAIGON IN the village, WAS
encountered BY an Irishman named Law
rsAos O Brian, with whom he had a scufae,
IN which Sehnak came ont victorious
O'Brian Left threatening vengeance. At mid
night when Sohnak, in company with two
other Germans, was proceeding homeward,
OBrian, with man named Maurice Roche,
and several other Irishmen, met him and
instantly knocked him down, and beat him
= death.
OBrian and Roche are arrested, and the
officers are upon the track Of two others ofthe
murderer The murdered man was very |
much respected in Mendota. Chicago
