have before me the Montreal Gazette of the
oIst instant by which it appears that foul ard


nbuman murder was committed on a man by the
nsms of Leonard, at the race-eourse near that city
Sg some infuriaIed ruians, on the 18th inst. They
oSrsued him with clubs through a crowd, and in
sctsd such wounds on his head as to cause death


oon afterwards. From all that can be gathered, II
