still alive. She had lain all night
until eight O'Clock in the morning,
with nothing on but her night clothes.
They had been in bed, and run out
without dressing, except his boots
and her shoes. Her skull was badly
fractured, and the physicians say she
cannot live. though they have opera

children, the oldest ten years, :he
Youngest still at the breast, nearly
two years old.
Februarr 27.-Mrs. Brewer died last
night. She has relatives somewhere
about GaIlipolis o, the adjoining coun'

actly. How small an oversight will
lead TO detection.

Editors Tribune and Clipper:
On Thursday night. the eth instant,
a most atrocious murder was commit
ted about five miles from this place, on
the persons of Justus Brewer and wife
Mr.. Brewer. believe, was originally
from New York or Vermont, but for
several years a resident of Ohio, in
Scioto and Lawrence counties. For
some time past there had been a qu1r-
rel between John Collins and his friends
and Brewer. Some law suits between
them we're not settled, which is no doubt
the cause of the murder.
The murderers are all in jail-John
Collins, who instigated the act; his SON
in-law, Reuben Clarke; and his brother
in.law. John Clark; his brother-in-law.
VIM. Hood; and Turner Clark, who
lived with Collins. though not related TO
the others. They have all confessed
except John Collins; and he owns that
he was present when they backed
themselves at the sugar camp-that he
took their hats to safe place until their
return-and that they returned 10 the
house the same night, and told him that
they had killed Brewer and his vile
that he (Collins) got water for them to
wash, and that he was afraid to give the
alarm, as he might oe Suspected
he thought they were only going TO
steal Brewers chickens when they
were bIacking themselves. The
boys say they were persuaded by
CoIlins--he offered one a horse,
another a yoke ol oxen; to his SON.
in.law he said that Brewers law
suits would break him up if he was
not killed. VIM. Hood and John
Clark are eighteen years old, Turner
Clark, nineteen; Collins is over mid
die age, probably fifty; his son-in-
law, Reuben Clara, twenty seven.
Brewer and Collins belonged to
the same church and both to the
same Division oi the Sons OF Tenn
perance; and some Of The others
belonged to the same church. There
was no whisky used in the transac-
ton, and none Of them appeared TO
be crazy.
Hood made disturbance among
the chickens to bring their victims
out. They came out together TO

struck Mrs. Brewer to the ground,
and then struck Mr.. Brewer and
hit him several times. He never

Mr.. Webster, in his New York
speech, referred TO a distinguished
American who was engaged in wri-
ting a history of Greece. There
have heen much inquiry and many
conjectures, as to who is The distin-
gukhed American re'erred to-but
no revelation has yet been made
The probabilities are said TO point TO
Rufus Choate, of Boston. A history
from his pen will be sure TO attrac,
the attention of the world, and will as
surely repay it.

The Sacramento Union states that
the miners in the diggings about Dia-
mond Springs are not only engaged
in working their claims during the
day, but that the sound Of the rocker
and pick is heard at night. and that
the most strenuous exertions are
being made to liquidate as much
earth as possible ere the rapidly fall
ing waters shall have become ex-
hausted.
The Stockton Journal saws that
until recently an able bodied man
could obtain employment anywhere
in the southern mines al. SlOO per
month and board-but within the
last two or three weeks new comers
from the northern mines and the
east, have been working Tor less. -
Wages, in the mines. BY the day, are
now from three TO five dollars per
day, according to the diggings. We
hear that some new comers have
been working for two dollars per
Gay. However, it is expected that
business will revive in the mines as
soon as the various water companies
have completed their works. There
lis now 100 much water in the rivers
and moi enough in the dry diggings.
A DR.. Soieker has discovered q
solvent, which will prove great ben

at San Diego, having been 81 days
from Panama. When she started
she had 200 passengers; about thirty
had died at San Diego. The Captain
turned the whole party ashore. refu-

The Golden Gate left Panama on

ing vessels had also left Panama with
passengers, from the lst to the 18th
