On Sunday last, our town was Tue iieato VI
what.was, to all appearance, the most coiu olooa-
ed and deliberate murder we remember ever W
have read of in the annals OF crime. ne lac.s' as
they have been related to us, are as follows:


About 8 o'clock, P. M, on Saturday, in the
Grocery of Mr.. Brown, some dozen or more per-
sons being present, A. Guykosky and Nelson
Rail were staining at the counter apparently
drinking together in friendship. Suddenly the
former drew pistol, cooked it, and, presenting
it al RAIL- shot him through the right breast, the
ball passing downwards in the direction OF the
heart. The unfortunate man reeled round, placed
his hand on the wound, fixed his glazed eye on
the murderer, fell, and almost instantly expired


Guykosky was Immediately arrested by our ac-
tive officers, and having undergone legal examl-
nation, was committed, aud is now in custody,
awaiting his trial. As his name denotes, Guy
kosky is Polander by BIRTH and is among those
exies to whom the liberality of our Government
was extended at the time they sought refuge
among us from the power of RUSSIA He lived
about a mile and a half from this place, on the
Kaskaskia bluff.


Mr.. Rial was a highly respectable, worthy,
and industrious citizen of this county. A more
peaceable and inohensve man did not exist
among us. He was in the prime Of life, and has
left widow and four children, besides many re-
latives, to deplore his untmely fate.


Benevolence ill-jGdged and misplaced. This
is another specimen Of our folly. VIII the
act bestowing undeserved benefits on these
Poles, or any Of its results, make amends for the
ferocious and diabolcal outrage thus committed Oh
our fellow counuyman, by which he was brought
to an untimely end and so much woe has been
inflicted on his helpless perhaps sufiering) fam
lily! No. The whole clan ought to be exiled
back again to Poland, and given up TO their task
masters.-ED. N. Am.
