MURDER AT TIE SANCHEZ RANoHo.-Yesterday
morning dispute arose between two men named
Thomas Tranield and James Carlisle at the San
chez Rancho in which the latter was shot dead. 1t
appears that difficulty had formerly occurred be-
tween the parties relative to the title Of piece of
property somewhere in that vicinity and on yester-
day morning Carlisle came to the house Of Tranfeld,
who was suffering from chills and fever, with the
ayowed object Of getting up fight. Tranfeld hay
ing taken notice of pistol in his hand, seized his
gun and ordered him to lower his pistol or he would
fire. Carlisle pointed the pistol to the ground, and
then Tranfeld asked him to take cup OF tea and
be friends, or leave the house. Carlisle said he
would do neither-sad he came there for the pur-
pose of getting up fight, and raised his pistol
again, when Tranfeld fired and shot him somewhere
in the region of the heart, causing almost instant
death. Tranfeld, after the commission Of the act,
came into town and delivered himself up to the po-
lice. The Coroner was also notified Of the occur
renee and proceeded last night to the place for the
purpose ofholding an inquest. Francisco He

PACKER SHOT BY AN INDIAN.-The Shasta
Courier Of Saturday says:-We regret to learn that
Mr.. Miron Scribner was shot on Monday on the road
from Readings creek to the south fork of Trinity
river. He was struck under the left shoulder blade.
The force of the ball, however, was considerably
spent before striking, and did not therefore, 1t is
hoped, infict mortal wound. In consequence OF
this affair all the Indians Of that vicinity have broke
for the mountains.

SHALL CoLoRED MEN GO TO CANADA

"IIo was not in favor of fugitive SLAVES going to
Canada even, because he wanted it kept constantly
and plsinly before the world that they had a right
to stay in this land. If they must flee, let them
flee from one State to another, until they should
stir up humanity enough to defend them on their
own soil (chcers). Another reason was, that he
believed the day was not far distant when that

more respected there than here, and they would
occupy less advantageous ground than if they had
remained here. Nolongcr than last summer, he
went to Toronto, and found prejudice as rife there

before he found one at which he could be admitted.
There were colored churches, ministers and schools,
and it seemed to him that the colored people were
themselves carrying that damnable prejudice to

A BLusTER.-A correspondent Of the Charleston
Mercury relieves himself as follows:
"MEssRs. EpIroRs: | was gratifed with your
notice of the infamous conduct of Horace Greeley
respecting the murder at the St. Nicholas Hotel.
His course in this matter is Of a piece with his
whole career. lie seems to have devoted himself,
body and soul, to stirring'up the bad passions OF
the northern people against the South. and pursucs
his aim with an intensencss Of venom, II reckless
ness of honor, truth and decency, more character
istic of tho demon than the man. Under such
circumstances, is it not surprising that any north
ern merchant should have the audacity to send a
vessel bearing the name of this fend incarnate to
a southern port9 And yet, gentlemen, the papers
OF the day announce the arrival in the port Of
Charleston Of the brig iIorace Greeley, Smith, from
Philadelphia, with a load Of coal. What will be
her return cargo? What would be her most ac
ceptaLle freight to her Infamous namesake, the
arch-patron Of the Underground Railroad? We
are sure no southern man, who has any respect for
himself and his section, will give her business, nor
no northern man who deserves to be respected by
them. Let her return with the live freight she
brought here, and let her give Charleston a wide
berth hereafter.

There is much truth in what odr correspondent

Nevertheless there is often great ~propriety in stat

referred to. The facts would often lose their full

of course tho statement should be made in such a
way as not to minister to the absurd and wicked

A CoNTENTED SLAvE.-A gentleman from Missis-
sippi, who formerly resided at Erie, Pa, lately re-
turned to that town to visit his relatives, bringing
with him Il female slave. The relatives being all
anti-slavery people, the fact excited considerable
talk, and finally a habeas corpus was taken out by
some colored people, who had the woman taken
before the local Court. The Judge decided her to
be free, and told her that she might leave her mas
ter or return with him to Mississippi, just as she
thohght proper whereupon she unhesitatingly de-
clared in favor of the latter course.
The above item has been going the rounds
long enough, without an explanation. If true, it
would only prove the depth of degradation to which
slavery reduces its victims-but when we add to il
the remark that the woman alluded to remained
with her master because her husband and children
were also his slaves in the far South, and she re,
fused freedom because they were detained as hos.
tages for her return to slavery, it will be seen how
far her slavery is voluntary.

publishes IL letter from Missouri, which gives FL
lington's version Of his failure to kidnap Freeman ::
"The report is this, as brought back I suppose
by himself. The Abolitichists, alias the citizens of
indianapolis, privately managed to steal away this
negro out of Jail and send him away to Canada by
the hands of men who returned and .sworc that they
had seen Ellington's negro in Canada. In this
place in the Jail they substituted Freeman, a free
negro, and sent to Georgia for testimony to prove
his freedom. By this adroit but rather costly
mancuvcr he had been tricked out Of his negro.
Tho report gains about as much currency here
as it would in your own city, Ellington is held in
about the same stimation here as there. The
people in this town rejoiccd in his defeat. Filing
ton, it is said, to avoid the Freeman judgment has
disposed of his property and left for parts unknown
When in the Wyandot nation ! learned that n lot
of his negroes had been brought there for safety
and left under the sacred care of the e"
