Another Murder.

a man by the name Of Daniel Geraugbty
was killed in this town on Sunday night, the
18th inst. The particulars Of this sad affair,
as near as we can ascertain them, are as fol.
lows--About twelve O'Clock on Sunday
night party of persons, among whom was
the deceased, entered the Saloon, known As
the Orleans Bar, and commenced an attack
upon the inmatcs--a melee cnsucd and the
attacking party were driven from the house.
a few moments afterwards, the deceased
was found lying on the platform in front Of
the adjoining building, apparently severely
injured. lie was carried into the Union llo-
tel and medical aid Immediately sent for, bat
before the physician arrived life was extinct
On examination it was discovered that he had
been stabbed in two places, one wound being
in the chest, the other in the abdomen
either Of which would have been fatal
On Monday a Coroner's Inquest was held
and some twenty 1--we witnesses were exam
ined, but nothing was elected which cosld
tend to fix the commission Of the deed on
any individual. No person was seen to have
knife or any other weapon by which the
wounds could have been inflicted The
probabilities are that the deed was done after
the party was driven out Of the house One
witness testified that he saw the CLEAN o
knife, while the party were outside, before
they dispersed, but he was too Gar of to iden-
tify any parties.
No suspicion, as far as we can ascertain
rests upon an particular individual; and, in al
probability no clue will ever be found b,
which the perpetrator of the act can be dis
covered.
We understand that the deceased leaves
wife and child residing in San Francisco.
The Trinity times., 1855-03-24

dollar, and also to Palmer, Cook & Co. Mr..
Claughiey gave witness aticket to vote, which
witness believes if he had not voted would
have resulted in lis discharge. This ticket
had Claughlev's name on. it and was called
the --- ticket. The same was put in
to the hands Of all the inmates who were able
to leave, and they were ordered to vote it.
John Thyson-Lived at the Hospital from
May !, '53 to Feb. %, lSjj-sometimes act
ed as nurse and did general work around
the house-Dr. Mills always kept his private
servant whom be paid So out Of the Ilospi-
tai money-none Of the other physicians had
private servants-have never known any per-
son to be discharged for refusing TO vote a
certain ticket Witness then stated the fail
ure Of the Treasurer to pay him and others,
the manner of settling accounts, etc.
A. H. uagan-N Urked at the Hospital
Cor two yems-have seen the steward bring
in tickets and distribute them among the in
mates on election dav-it was the general
impression in the Hospital at The time that
Hubbard was discharged because he refused
to vote a certain ticket.
The Trinity times., 1855-03-24
Fees of Office.

We again refer 10 this subject, understand
ing that bill, which provides for the reduc-
ton Of the fees Of Office throughout the State,
but excepts from its provisions the county Of
Trinity, has already passed one branch Of
the Legislature.
The interests Of the community impera-
lively demand a reduction Of the fees at pre-
cent allowed in this county. They are exor-
btant in the extreme, and unless a proper
reduction is made in them, legislation and
ruin will henceforth be, as they now are,
synonymous terms in this community. We
most earnestly call upon the members Of the
Legislature TO examine into this matter, and
compare the rates Of fees allowed in this
county, with those established in other por-
tons Of the State We are satisfied that they
will Immediately perceive the injustice done
to the citizens Of Trinity county, in requiring
them TO pay one hundred, and in some in
stances, two hundred per cent. higher rates,
than are exacted for the same services in the
neghboring counties.
We suppose that it would be useless to ask
for any assistance from our Senator, az we
understand that he is pledged to use hisinnu-
ence to have the present exorbitant rates
maintained. But we trust that our member
Of the Assembly will give his immediate at
tention to this matter, and endeavor TO secure
to his constituents the privilege Of being ben
Gifted by the laws Of the State, on tho same
terms as their neighbors

On the 18th, Don Raymon Unto, an ntl-

The Kinney expedition is now pretty wei
ascertaned to be intended for Cuba.
Great excitement still prevailed. New
militia companies were being formed.
The whole island has been declared in a
state Of blockade.
A proclamation has been issued, ordering
the enlistment of all volunteers between the
