TIE testimony elected yesterday be-
fore the coroner's jury in regard to the
death of Tim Sullivan showsthat the COM
initial of the murder was evidently pre-
meditated, as after the deed was con-
summated Donnelly made his brags That
he had fixed the son Of b-h, (mean-
ing Sull:van) The testimony, except
by his own words, although it points to
him, we think is not clear in as far as
the evidence goes of anyone seeing the
cutting done. We do not see why Sui
livan's dying statement was not taken by
the proper authorities. 1t surely should
have been. If it had been taken the
facts in the case would have been fully
established.
LAST evening the Lexington Guard
hsla their annual election for officers for
The ensuing year. the result of which

Captain Thomas Gallagher was the pre-

General Rocker, Third Brigade. The
election held on the 10Th it would seem
was premature, the presiding officer on
that occasion not having been appointed
legally. Gen. Rocker fulfilled his duty
III that respect, but the mail not coming
through on time the appointment made
by him was not known until after the
election of the 10Th. Members conceding
the election to be illegal held another
election last evening.
