As to bow tbe a£ fray originated, no one can tell; when the parties were first •discovered, they were fighting with their fists, but la a very «hort time afterwords Johnston drew from his pocket adlrk lknife,«nd stabbed Cook twice; in the breast and abdomen. Immediately on committing Ibo deed, Johnston ran off. Cook walked,in a fainting condition, to Alderman Hmftley’S aßtoft, where his wounds wpre dressed by Dr. M’Candless, assisted by Dr. MGook, Jr. The wound in the abdomen is very «erlen% and, it Is feared, will prove fatal.
