THE County Seat Again.

The citizens of Georgetown are moving for di-
vision, because the present county seat is so dis
tasteful to them, nconvenient and adverse to their
interests; so much so that they would rather see
the county cut up into nfntesmal fractions, than
be compelled longer to submit to so great an incon-
venience as the continuance of the county seat at
its present locality y.-PlaceruMe Am.
AS to convenience, we are not aware of any par
tcular advantage that Pacerville has over Coloma,
in the way of accommodating the Georgetown peo-
pie. And the insinuation that there is any such
sentiment as distate cherished for the other by
citizens either of Georgetown or Cooma is simply
absurd. better feeling does not exist between
the people of any two towns in the State But,
speaking of things distasteful,' allow the pre-
diction that placerville will never be the county
seat of any thing. The distaste she has begot for
herself in the minds of the intelligent voters of
the county, would make certain her defeat in any
attempt to remove the county scat into her corpo-
rate limits, Placcrville has, by her agitation of
this subject, cost the people of the county probably
twenty thousand dollars, in cash and the sum
would be slightly increased if her accounts for
horse hire, printing, and canvassing incurred a
year ago, were Cancelled. No, Mr.. American those
extravagant quartz leads you tell of will be worked
out, your arsenical springs will dry those wal
nut groves will be worked up that centenaran
equaw will have been gathered to her fathers and
yet Placerville will be no county seat. But the
para graph quoted is best answered by our cotem-
porary of the News, who is supposed to understand
the feeling of our Georgetown neighbors on the
subject in hand lie says:
After the decisive aud determined action taken
by the citizens Of Georgetown and vicinity in op
position to removal of county seat--expressed in
terms not to be MISUNDERSTANDING are surprised
at cotemporary for giving currency to the fore
going.
:" Were the inhabitants of Georgetown, Bottle
Fill, Greenwood Valley, Pilot Hill, Salmon Falls,
Negro Hill, Volcanovie and the entire population
on the extreme northern boundary of the county
from the head of Mormon Island to the junction
of FL Dorado Canyon with the Middle Fork of the
American, a distance of fifty miles, compelled to
go to Pacerve instead of Coloma, to do their bu-
siness with the county, are of the opinion that
it would be thousand times more diSt0steful and
anconuenien to their of justice. Notification
worse by half than that manifested towards the
general government seventeen years ago by South
Carolina, would be the inevitable result. Instead
of quietly submitting to removal, a deafening, tu-
multuous, and never-ceasing cry would be raised
for DIVISION which would never be abandoned until
it was attained The present feeling on that sub
.ect has been called forth by the unpropitous re-
agitation of removal

MURDER AT BENIcIA. A murder was committed
about o'clock Sunday evening on the wharf at
Benicia under the following circumstances: James
Dunn, the Sd assistant engineer of the steamer
Golden Gate, and another person, name unknown
had been riding out in buggy with Beverly Wells
a ship-earpenter at the p M. s. s. Co.'S works, and
drove on to the dock about dusk, Wells holding the
reins. Dunn got out of the buggy, and Wells star
ted the horse, when Dunn seized the reins and at
tempted to arrest the horses progress Words
ensued the parties being in liquor and acting as if
they were skylarking, and Dunn applied some
harsh epithets to Wells who drove off, remarking
that when he had put up the horse he would return
and settle the matter with him. On his return
further words ensued, and the parties walked up
the plank road towards the town. What actually
occurred then is not known, but Wells shortly re-
turned to the wharf and asked if Mr. Shirley, the
Sheriff, or Mr.. Estelle his deputy, were present
On being informed they were not, he asked if there
was constable. Finding no one in authority
present, he exclaimed, 81 surrender myself to all
present have had a difficulty with Dunn; he
called me hard names and assaulted me, and have
stabbed him, and | expect have killed him" Par
ties went in search of Dunn, and found him horri
bly, mutilated; he had received a cut across his
abdomen. exposing his intestines, and when the
boat left he was in the agonies of death. Wells is
in custody.--S f. NeuS
