The Sheriff and Magistrate had both opposed the course pursued in taking the men from their custodv, and declared that they would no longer act officially. The jury, after consulting together nearly an hour, announced as their judgment that the prisoners should be safely kept to await the result of Kerrs wound, and in case of his 'death, that they should be executed promptly in case' Kerr survives, tho prisoners to bedoliveredtoihe civil authorities. A committee was appointed wh6' forthwith took possession of them and removed them to a place of safe keeping. The Coroners jury presented El-lcrbee as an accessory.

HR elicited durina judicial The facts, as elicited during th.e judic: proceedings, were in substance It seems that on Saturday, about i twelve oclock qtnah named Andrew J. Kerij, a native of Pennsylvania, aged. 22 "years, residing pn section 8, of the 'Ilalf; Breed Raw lands, came into town, and shortly afterwards rode his horse up to the back door of the drinking saloon, known ai the WigWam, kept by a man named EUorbee, to, gijt Some liquor, i The door wdgclo6ed and 'he was about riding off, when two men'kppj-oached, named Edward Adams and Charles Ollara, who requested himo dismount and go in. He did so, tried the dOor and then mounted his yhen, according to Kerrs testimony, Adams at- tempted tq.takc hold of bridle.

Kei spurred his horse, and Adams threw- stones at him. (kip struck' his horse. Kerr, then went to Dolmans iBtore, stated what had occurred an loaded his pi'qtof there. Soon after, Ellerbee cable in. 'lie and Iverr wont over to the.

Wigwam. Soon after, Adams nd OHara entered, Ellerbee unlocking the door to admit them. Adams had a musket in his hahd. An altercation took place be-tweei) Kerr and After some time the parties made friends and drank together, and Kerr wont away with his bottles. Soon aftet, he returned to tho1 "VVigwam to invite all hands over to see him on Sunday, gfime of cards was propost Kerr and Ellerbee playing against Adams and a young mail named IlenTy Ti Wilton.

While Kerr was engaged in the game, OHara, who had become considerably advanced without any notice or special provocation, and struck Kerr on the head Kerr says with a stone, ftnd OHara says only with his fist. The blo' somewhat stunned Kqijrj bjit be arose and leaned against the counter and c6mmenced feeling for his pistol, when he saw Adams snapping a pistol 'at- him, and after snapping two or three times, Adams pistol Went off, tho ball taking effect in the Tight side of his abdomen. The hall was extracted by Dr. Iluson, who found it near tho surface about thrio inches from the backbone. Kerrs dying declaration was fie avers that he did not fire at Ad-nuis tlyit his pistol hud.

hut one load in that an old charge that had been in' some time. testimony confirmed Kerrs statement generally, except that he heard four shots fired that Kerr fired at Adams, hut as he was anxious to protect himself from the bullets, his recollection was not positive. Wilton swore that Kerr fired at Adams first. He hoard three shots fired. Heard tho blow struck, but could not tell who did Messrs.

Samuel and J. L. Dolman testified to Iyer lopding'his pistol' at' their house. It was proven that after the first difficulty, when Adamsi and Qll.irasaw Kerr enter the grocery with Fllorbee, Adams handed OHara a small knife and Adams vpnt into the Court Haase anil procured the musket. The apparent settlement of the difficulty' took pliteo after that.

'James Uanay testified that ho heftrd'El-. lerbee offer Wilton $5 if he would swear that Ker; fired first at Adams. Wilton had previously told witness that Kerr did not fireat And, W. Pftrdee testified that he saw Kerrs Eistol before he was removed, find it then ad but one charge in. Ho thought it looked as though it had not been recently fired.

Several physicians gave thoir opinion that the wound was dangerous, find probably, but not certainly, fatal.

This triumph was accomplished by a party greatly distracted on the subject of voting under a constitution that they hate, loathe and abhor to the centre of their hearts, with a short and imperfect notice, that failed to reach many of the more distant districts. These causes, together, it is safe to say, reduced the free state vote to the extent of 5,000 votes.
