The "Second Christ" Killed.
London, Aug. 24.-The Roman cor
respondent of the Times gives an ac-
count of the Groseto fanatic and the
circumstances of his death.
Lazzaretti declared himself to be
Christ, come again and had chosen
twelve apostles. On the morning of
the 18th inst, the prophet, at the head
of about $500 followers, started for the
village of Arcidosso. His purpose, it
is said, was not peaceful. A hundred
believers, dressed in white tunics like
ancient Jewish priests, led the column.
At their head walked David, the saint,
attired in half regal and half pontifical
costume, with q diadem on his head
and an iron studded club in his hand.
The procession sang the hymn with the
refrain ''Long live God and the Chris
tian Republic, praise be to Christ come
q second time on earth.'' The mob was
met half way by q delegation Of the po-
lice, accompanied by nine Carabineers,
who invited them to disperse. Upon
this David cried 81 am King" and or
dered his followers to disarm the SOL
diers. As he spoke. the police were fired
upon, and shower of stones followed.
Again the delegation gave the warning
to disperse, which was followed by the
prophet aiminga blow at them with the
club. The police then finding them
selves surrounded, opened FIRE, and
among the first to fall was the prophet,
shot going full in the forehead. His
followers seeing their leader down,
gave way.

their time pretty well occupied in caring
for the sick and destitute.

Aroostook Democratic Convention.

Aroostook Democratic Convention.
HoULToN, Aug. 23-At the Democratic con-
vention for Aroostook county. Hon. j. G.
Madigan presided and J. B. Hutchinson of
Houlton was chairman of the committee on
resolutions. The resolutions affirm that the
creation of species of property known as
government bonds, which bonds comprise
large part of the wealth of the money lords of
this country. and the relieving of such i'm
mense wealth from all taxation, allowing it to
escape the burdens of supporting the govern
ment expenses. is gross disregard of Amer
lean principles, and in plain violation of
natural justice. This base system destroys all
equality before the law of the State; 1t creates
and fosters privileged and select class among
our people; it builds up the moneyed power; 1t
makes the rich man richer and the poor man
poorer, year by year; and must end in establish
ing in this country, if continued, Of the most
contemplate of all classes-a moneyed
aristocracY.
The convention nominated tbs Greenback
ticket, except for commissioner; for this office
John A. Nadeau of Fort Kent, was designated

with eager listeners, including large number
of ladies. E. A. Wilson, Esq. presided. and
% vice presidents, including the most prom-
nent citizens, occupied seats on the stage. MI.
Burrows was received with applause and spoke
with much force an hour, discussing the aims
and doctrines of the Greenback party. and
making logical argument to show the newt
able tendency and result of such policy to be
population and communism. The speaker
held the close attention of the audience which
frequently interrupted him with applause, and
his closing appeal to Maine stand firm for
| national integrity was greeted with much en-
thusiasm.
Senator Blaine's appearance was greeted
with cheers and long continued applause. He
held the large audience till nearly IL o'clock
with calm, candid discussion of the financial
question, covering the principal points raised
in the canvass, and at the close was warmly
congratulated by large number of citizens.

across the principal street, bearing the names
of the candidates for Governor and Congress.
