Every one of our readers have
ere this, read all about the melee which
took place in the Seventh Ward in
New Orleans, on Friday, and in which
three men were and seven wounded
among the slain being the gallant
and now lamented Capt. Fortier. In
discussing various points concerning it.
the Times Democrat has this to saw
editorially: every impartial reader
must conclude, from careful reading
of the testimony as given in the press
that the man Buckley was the direct
cause of the tragedy. He it was who
struck a prisoner in the hands of the
police with a loaded cane; he it was
who drew the first weapon and fired
the first shot. Upon his head rests
the immediate responsibility for the
whole dreadful ARRAY.
