Tug MURDER AT PORTLAND, ME.-The
Argus has the following details OF the
murder which took place in Portland on
Thursday afternoon, some account Of
which has been given by Geographic
dispatch
"a young man of Irish birth, about
twenty-four years Of age named Charles
II. Keenan,, who belongs to the barque
Mary Il. Libby, Of Portland, commanded
by Capt. Thos. L. Libby, also Of Port
land now lying at East Boston, came
down from Boston ia the train of Wednes-
day night, and applied at the sailor
boarding house of Mrs. Robert Douglass,
in the rear of Commercial street, back
of Messrs. Rumery & Burnhsm's pack
ing house, but, as we understand, was
refused. He returned TO the house yes
terday afternoon about two o'clock,
when an alteration occurred between
him and One Charles Johnson, known as
Dutch Charley, runner for the board
ing house. A fight ensued, and Keenan,
was thrown, aud being underneath, he
drew his pocket, knife and stabbed John
son twice in the left breast or side, the
Johnson rnu out Of the house, exclaim-
ing, 4 am killed, and soon dropped dead.
Keenan, attempted to escape, but was
pursued and arrested on Washington
street by Deputy Marshal Irish. Keenan,
was badly In liquor at the time, and
when brought to the police station was
quite rum ugly We saw Keenan, there
in the evening and he had recovered
somewhat from his excitement, and con-
versed Very calmly about the fatal ARRAY.
There is a rumOr on the street that
woman is connected with the affair, aud
that Keenan, came down from Boston
with the express purpose OF committing
the murder, but we can trace this to no
reliable foundation.
Keenan, seems like pesceable fellow,
yet one who INDUCES in liquor very
strongly. He has led a rowing, Sea-far-
ing life, sailing principally between the
United States and England. He spent
two or three years in the Indian Ocean.
He came over to this country when quite
q young boy"
