The srABBfSG OF JEREMIAH MURPHY.--We yes
terday mentioned that Oscar Blasco stabbed Jere-
miah Murphy On Wednesday night, but had not
time or room to give the particulars
1t seems that, at about nine O'Clock, as the
Breckenridge procession was passing down Royal
street. at Orleans street, Oscar Basco passed and
repassed between the ranks several times, waving
small flag and shouting for other candidates, but
this conduct not needed. As the end of the
procession passed on, young man named Jere-
miah Murphy, native of Halifax, about rs years
of age, who is shoemaker, living on Crossman
street, either left the procession or was crossing
the street when he got into the middle Of crowd
among whom was Blas9o and who were hurrahing
for Bell and Everett. Murphy shouted for Breck-
inridge, and scufie ensued, which resulted in his
being dangerously stabbed by Blasco. Several
witnesses agree that when Murphy shouted for
Breckenridge he was between Biasco and young
man named LaeaTrere, who struck him, showing
him against Blasco. Oscar Basco then struck him
over the left eye, cutting the skin, and Murphy
caught him by the coat and shook him. Blasco
then struck him the shoulder, when he let 60 OF
him with one hand and struck him on the head. At
this Blasco drew a dirk-knife from behind and
thrust it twice into Murphy's left side, under the
arm. Murphy let go Of him and TELL, crying out,

they heard some one cry out, Run, Baseo, run 7,
| and saw him running down the street. The Chief
! soon caught him, at which moment he threw his
dirk away on the sidewalk and it was picked up
by Mr.. R. Kane. The Chief let 60 of Blasco to get
| the dirk from Mr.. Kane, when Blasco ran across
the street into Franks oyster saloon and tried to
| hide himself against the wall in the room where
customers wash their hands, but was Immediately
arrested by Lieutenant Greyon, VINO brought nun
to the lookup, where Murphy was also carried

ply. who was then sent to the Charity Hospital,
and Blasco locked up in CELL
Bell when Murphy struck him, and that after

! within the breast of his coat as ii to draw Wea-
pom, Immediately after which he was struck on the
