and walk on to the south track of the Boston
& Worcester Railroad, near the Western Rail-
road car house, where he was struc> by the
cowcatcher of the engine Express" coming

feet before he came to the track. The engine
was going east, and proceeding very slowly,
less than five miles an hour. His body was
found lying across the north rail of the south
track, and was cut nearly in two across the
chest, leaving the head and shoulders north of
the rail, and the remainder Of the body within
the rails. The heart was lying upon the
ground near the body.

Row IN PALMER.-,A correspondent gives
an account of a serious afffay, which occurred
a few days since at social gathering in Duck
vile, Palmer, between Thomas Granny, "a
kind-hearted, mild, and quietly disposed man, y
and Thomas Sullivan, whose character was
equally as good, both being in the employ of
the Boston Duck company. After the first
brush of battle Sullivan went home, but about
II o'clock was called to his door, was imme-
diately struck with heavy club across the
face, teled to the ground so severely as to con-
fine him for many days to the house. The
mystery is, how "two men of so guarded NOR
ais" came to fall out at that social gathering,
and why The company which employed them
took no notice of the assault

MURDERoUs ASSAULT IN OxFoRD-Last
Saturday evening drunken row occurred in
oxford, at the house of an Irishman named
John Pope. 1t appears that Timothy Moran,
who had received his wages that evening,
went to Pope's GROCERY, spent all his money,
got very quarrelsome, and on being refused
more liquor, commenced an assault on the
premises. Pope and companion, named
Ryan, then beat him in a shocking manner,
and left him senseless, in which condition he
was found by his wife and conveyed home
His body was badly bruised, and his skull
broken so that his brain protruded His ply
slclans have faint hopes Of his recovery. Pope
and Ryan at first fled, but returning at late
hour of the night, were arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Chaffee, and will be held till the result
of Moran's injuries are known.

extensive for single artist, but Mr.. Dexter's

The bust of Gov. Chase is the sixth in the

best criterion of excellence in the work

by promising more than they could perform
Last Friday night, they promised that the call
for the meeting, signed by Edward Everett, J.
W. Page, Franklin Skinner, and others, would
appear in the Courier, next morning. 1t did
not appear in the Courier, next morning; and,
when it did appear, il was not signed by these
gentlemen. They intimated that Ex-Governor
Lincoln would preside; but in the call, as
printed, this ntimation is omitted They have
fourished the names of several gentlemen as
speakers at the meeting, some of whom will
not speak there, and from most of whom they
can get no promises. Regard for the union is
generally cherished in Massachusetts, but our
people are likely to differ from Mr.. Geo. Lunt
as to the times and circumstances which call
for public demonstrations of this sentiment.
