 fl Boy Murdered in the Streets of Baltimore - The city was much excited yesterday by report getting about that boy had been murdered in the public streets. The report spread through the city, and attracted large crowds to the scene of the murder. It appears that man named David An- drews. Ca butcher, in the employ of H. Kimberly,) was intoxicated, and was reelng along through Bath street, near the Falls when he attracted the attention of several boys, who commenced to tease him, by pulling his coat and hallooing at him. Those who were near by, say that there was only tri1ing among the boys, when Andrews pulled out long butcher knife, and seiZng one of the boys named Johu Brannan, plunged the knife into his forehead up to the hit! The poor boy immediate ly fell, and with few convulsive throes, died- Andrews fell with him, and in his rage seized the expiring boy by the hair and pulled it savagely- The thought appears now to have occurred to him that he had committed murder, and he rose and ran off, He was immediately pursued by those who saw the outrage. and was knocked down by some one and secured. The excitement among the crowd was so great, that it was with difficulty he was saved from instant death. A post-mortem ex- animation was made, and the wound of the knife found to be several inches deep. The affair occur- red about five o'clock yesterday afternoon. Am drews is about g years of age, and the boy killed about 17. The murderer was taken to the police office, and fully committed for trial.
