SHOOTING ARRAY.


PORTLAND. February6. Charles r, Moal-
ton Of Portland. Thursday night, in an alter
cation, shot his hcstler, Thomas Raymond,
twice in the face. Raymond is seriously. but
not dangerously wounded. Moulton reported
to the police and is nov under arrest.
He states that he had a quarrel with Ray
mond, who drew q pistol on him; that he
wrested it from him, discharged all the bar
rels in the snow, and gave it back: that Ray
mond then attacked him with the empty pis-
toll. He drew his own in self-defence. He
declines giving the reason for the alteration,
but the rumor is that the hostler had insulted
\ lady, and he reprimanded him for it.
Moulton was arraigned in the Municipal
court at 5 o'clock Friday afternoon, and
waived examination, and bail fixed in ten
thousand dollars. He was bound over to the
May term and bail was given. The wounded
man also refuses to make any statement.

POLITICAL.
THE THIRD TERN BOON NOT A
SUCCESS.
Senator Blaine Wins a Substantial Vic
tory at Harrisburg.

NEW YORK, February 6. The Herald's
Washington despatch says the sentiment of
republicans in Congress is that the third term
boom is dead, and that the Harrisburg con-
vention was not a triumph for Cameron and
was defeat for Grant.
The staff correspondent of the Tribune at
Harrisburg, says nine-tenths Of the cesfven-
ton were opposed to the third term.
The Tribune's Washington correspondent
states that it is considered there that Blaine
had more Of triumph at Harrisburg than
any one else.
BosroN, February 6. A special to the
Journal from Washington says that NJ. Frye
of Maine, speaking Of the result of the Har-
risburg convention, said that he was surprised
at the strength developed by Blaine's friends
at-the convention. He had not expected il in
view of the great efforts made by Cameron, and
the fact that Blaine's friends had not sought
to bind delegates by instructions in his favor.
Congressman Fisher of Pennsylvania said
81 do not think Blaine's friends have any
reason to feel disappointed at the result or
to look upon it as defeat. Every county that
is for Blaine will be represented at Chicago
by Blaine men. All the Grant men in the
State are for Blaine as second choice"
