MIR. EDIToR:-Perhaps the news has
reached you before this time of the great
fight in the city of Blakesburg, in wapel-
10 Co., Iowa.
On the 30th OF May, about four o'clock,
p. NJ, riot occurred near Lewis head
quarters, i'm the east part of the city2 X ing
Alcohol being commander-in-chief.T There
was fighting along the skirmish lines un-
TIL six, p. NJ. The entire force was then
concentrated in front of the Adams House.
in the west part of the city, where GEN.
eral engagement took place. The fight
lasted thirty minutes. The crowd then
began to move up Main Street, towards
trltz,S corner, skirmishing all along.
using spades, clubs, &c. The fighting
ceased about seven. since which time all
has remained quiet. We were informed
that a little skirmish occurred at the Bonner
Hotel, but no serious consequences en-
sued.
This was terrible scene. The result
was SIX wounded and one "missinr. -
we walked up Main Street after the fight
ing ceased, but could see no signs of Flood
and very little hair, and perhaps that was
where Dr.. Hamlin shot Shiclts' old dog.
General Lewis said it started from Lager
Beer, but we think there was little beer
mixed with sod'corn whiskcv.
. Mr.. Editor, please give this room in
your columns. and oblige a citizen of
