An'ccedents Of HrbeJt.-The True
Californian gives the particulars OIL a muir.
der in Texas, in which Herbert was en-.
gagged. The victim was a man by the
name Of Cooke. He had received one
ball from man named Waters, while he
was held by Herbert and another man.
The Californian says:
In the agonios Of death he exclaimed,
give me some water" when his murder.
er drew revolver and deliberately shot
four balls in his dead body. These are
facts, and are vouched for by a gentle
man now in San Francisco, who heard
the testimony in the case. Such was the
prelude to the late tragedy at Washing

can send such another Representative to

maintained by the Wings Of Virginia, than
those Of any other candidate; and because,
as the Convention was pleased to say, Of
their confidence in my late administration
Of the government.

is paramount to all others. allude to
the preservation Of the Union of these
