There was one in the head, one in the back of the neck, one on the left side of the face, one in the loft shoulder, one behind the right shoulder, two in the right side, seven in the back, and one in the right side of the neck, cutting downward, and fully two inches in width. The Farmers’ Movement. SPIRIT OF THE NORTHERN AND WESTEBN PRESS IN THE NEW PARTY. The farmers of Lexington county, Illinois, have held a convention. They adopted a platform which is a model of perspicuity and conciseness. The declaration sets forth, in one brief stn- men were in rather an advanced stage of in-tence, the “opposition to railroad steals, sal- t^xication, superinduced by frequent pots ^tionsfrom Fernandez’s handy bar, the deceased, who vai as full probably as any struck an o!d man who happened to be present and who was physically unable to resent the insult. A voung man, Auguste Macarty, who is some way related to the old man, interposed, and took the latter’s part. Thereupon Demas- nailer and Macarty had high words, during which the latter was struck by Demassallier; the blow not being returned because of the interference of two policemen. Macarty had a friend present in the person of Nelson Sev- erin, the barkeeper, who went to Demassallier and remonstrated or abused (it is impossible to ascertain which) him for striking Macarty, whom he rated only as a boy, much too young and physically unable to stand before him. This brought in the fourth party to the in significant dispute, which was then suppressed as it was thought, by the interposition of the two policemen stationed at the hall for the purpose of maintaining order. This was not the case, however, for when the ball broke up, just before daybreak, a disposition was evinced on the part of Macarty and Severin lo renew the difficulty, and Demassallier was heard to say, as he left the hall, “You know where to find me when you want me.” At an early hour yesterday morning the two friends, Severin and Auguste Macarty, met and went together as far as the corner or Bienville and Homan streets, where the latter stopped, while Severin proceeded on to the hou-e cf Demassallier, as is alleged, the bearer of a challenge. At the honse he found the door closed, and all his rapping was not sufficient to arouse the profound slumberer inside, who, after a night of dissipation, was wrapped in stupor and sleep. Not to be deterred from fulfilling lus mission, and made persistent by being half drunk, Severin took advantage of a win dow which opened on the street as a means of ingress, and climbing through found De massallier occupying a bed alone, in the iront room. The latter was aroused by a vigorous shake or two, and jumping up de manded why he was molested and what was meant by such intrusion. Severin stated why he had come, whereupon he was ordered peremptorily by Demassallier to leave. This he refused to do, whereupon a scuffle en sued. Demassallier being the aggressor, and getting the best of it, in as much as Severin was thrown upon the bed and severely beaten about the face. The latter only attempted to defend him self in this rough-and-tumble fight, and so far succeeded as to snatch a chair from the hands of Demassallier, with a demonstration being made against his (Severin’s) head. Arriving at the conclusion prfsently that this room was a fe\v degrees hotter than he had calcu lated on, Severin made for the door, and as he did so Demassallier snatched a heavy pitcher from the washstand, and delivered a iVemendoas blow on the intiusionist’s head, shattering the crockery into a hundred pieces. This was followed by another with the frag ment that remained on the handle, whereby the now, thoroughly demoralized Severin was cut very badly in the hand as he attempted to ward eff the blow. Getting clear of the house eventually, he found himself in a most unen viable condition, for the blood was streaming from his head, his nose, his wonnded hand, and his left eye showed signs of having col lided with a heavy fist. He walked demurely to the corner of St. Louis and Roman streets, but turned, as if actuated by some sudden impulse, and re tracing his steps, took np a position in front of the honse from which he had been driven, and there remained for some minutes. He leaned against a tree in an attitude indica tive of a resolve to bide his time, for very soon Demasallier looked from the window and told him to leave. Severin replied sul lenly, “I want satisfaction.” It was then that Demasallier threatened to use his pistol, which he produced, with these words, “I told yon to keep away from me, and if you don’t go, 111 shoot you.” Undeterred by this threat, Severin merely repeated that he would not leave, whereupon the former, true to his word, leveled his weapon and fired di re ctly at Severin, as be stood only the width i t the banquette from him. Whether it was because the latter was drunk, and was, there- ! >re, in a condition whereby he was unable to apprehend his great danger, or whether he is i.atumMy brave, it is Certainly trne that he acted very courageously at the moment, fer when the pistol was leveled at his head he faced his man, without moving a muscle, only raising his left shoulder slightly as the ball grazed his neck, but not changing his posi tion. After firing the shot, Demassallier left the window, and m a moment passed out of the door onto the banquette, pistol in hand, and dressed only in his underclothes. Stepping quickly np to Severin? who still leaned against the tree, he took hold of the latter’s shoulder, and with his pistol dealt Severin a blow on the right side of the head. With that the two clinched, and in a second, almost, Severin was seen to raise a large and glittering knife, which he used with great dexterity and fearful effect. Demassallier en deavored to use his pistol, but he could do nothing, for the man with the knife, appreci ating the advantage in favor of his weapon at close qnarters, clutched his adversary with the left hand, and pressing him backward gave him blew after blow, many of which were warded off, as Demassallier, now at great disadvantage, threw his arms wildly about him. His merciless loeman, os relent less as a savage, pressed forward with a hand upon the throat of the now feeble Demassal lier, and eventually got him jammed against the facing of the alley gate, where he dropped and attempted to crawl away on his hands and knees. It was at this stage of the fearful butchery that the few who had nerve to be spectators were horrified, for the maD, now far gone, made an effort, with the little strength that remained to him, to escape the cold and re lentless steel, his fiendish adversary walked deliberately by him, and, bending over the crouching form, delivered seven more stabs, four of which were derp and gaping incisions. When Demassallier, his strength nearly ex pended, crawled off the banquette, Severin left him and went off towards the comer of St. Louis and Homan streets, bis long knife recking with warm blood and his clothes red dened with gore from his own wounds and the gashes he had made on the body of the unfor tunate Demassallier. The latter, appearing to revive for a mo ment, regained his f b steals, and every other form of thiev- Thtfc are just five planks in the plat- * they are broad enough to cover the whole si Slion ju. consecutively (1) .<* favor of f <5!° ’kI denunciation of all taxation lor the penenUf special classes as unjust and oppressive ; (3> n f avor D f f ree banking uu- aer the propw* ^ j n opposition to all land grants; anj (5) j n favor of civil ser vice reform, making\ one8 ty an( j capacity the only valid claim8 foi public employment, to the end that “the offib, ahould seek the man, and not the man the o$ C e.” buch a declaration \nd such a platform must commend themself to all honest men, whether they be farmers or denizens of lhe city. These are principles hat will suit every body but the representative politician of the day. The men who thrive \t the expense of the people on salary grabs, G»edit Mobiliers, protective tariffs, railroad extortion, and offi cial corruption, will have no sympathy with them. All otheis will belieTe in them. — Chi cago Tribune. The Des Moines Register (organ) begins to look upon the Farmers’ Movement in Iowa as something that requires “every Republican to consider well the situation and come for ward to the help of his party.” The party is now in danger. Perhaps this sentiment, from the Buffalo (N. Y.) Express, also an organ, better expresses the situation: When a party becomes so obnexious that it can do nothing but die, it ought to be buried out of sight. After it has become thoroughly decomposed, perhaps a new political tree will grow up, absorbing some of the material of the corps. But it takes time. The San Francisco Chronicle declares that the Granges in California “already control a sufficient number of votes—votes that are not for sale, and cannot be bought—to decide the election” in September. Dwight, III, July 11, 1873. To the Editor of the Chicago Tribune: Sir: I inclose you for publication a few of the letters I have received during the past week in acknowledgment of the receipt of the Livingston County Platform. The letters speak for themselves. We are following up the platform by circulating in our own county 2,000 copies of S. M. Smith's thorough go ing, sensible, and well-conceived speech, de livered before the farmers of our county at Pontiac July 4, 1873. His speech fully sus tains our position “in declaring ourselves ab solutely free and independent of all past political connections.’' Truly yours, S. T. K. Prime, Sec’y Farmers’ and People’s Anti-Monopoly Party of Livingston county, 111. From D. W. Dame, Chairman Executive Committee Patrons of Husbandry of the State of Illinois: Lanark, III., July 3, 1873. I have to acknowledge the receipt of your postal card with Livingston County’s Decla ration and Platform. It is sound. It has the ring of pure metal, and will stand the test of the people’s fire. Lead on. Carrell county sends down the line of the army her greeting and invites Livingston county to the front. The world mover. Yours truly, D. W.

GOMPHY United States of America, Wasliixigtoii, D. o. on me previoc K " statio^j^Rnse, m deredwflfcself feet, staggered, and rais ing the piRtol, to which he had clang all along, fired an ineffectual shot at the retreat ing form of Severin. With this he entered the door of his honse, and casting himself on the bed was found there dead by those who followed him after the lapse of a few min ntes. When the difficulty commenced in Demos sellier’s room ia the morning, there was only one person in the house besides the two men, who gave her name as Laura Foster. From her the whole transaction, as it occurred in the house, was obtained, and she further al leges that the two men were drunk at the ball on the previous night. Severin, who is now in the Trerne whither he went and surren- after the encounter, is a young man twenty-four years old, and nearly white. When interviewed yeaterday morning by a Times reporter, he showed signs of very rough treatment, beiDg blood stained and bruised, wearing his arm in a sling, having one of his hands bandaged. He does not deny having done the entting, but alleges that be had no intention of nsiDg his knife until he was shot at (three times be says), and struck over the head with a pistol. Thinking then that his life was in danger, be used the knife; with what effect let it be seen by the foregoing ac count. Macarty, the accesaory, ij also in tbeTreme station, but professes to know nothing about the fight, but admits that he accompanied Severin a part of the way, as he went in the direction of Demasaallier's house; and, far ther, that the mission of Severin was to ar range the preliminaries of a fight between himself and the deceased, as the latter bad agreed to fight in any manner that might be decided upon. At the post mortem made by Dr. Cooper it was ascertained that there had been fifteen wounds inflicted, twelve of which are describe I N THE ABOVE SCHEME, FORMED BY THE ternary combination of 78 numbers, making 76,076 tickets and the drawing of la ballots, there will be 220 prizes, ,-ach having three of the drawn num bers on it; 4,356, each having two of them on; 25,740, each having one only ol them on; and also 45,760 tickets, with neither of tbo drawn numbers on them, being blanks.
