MURDER IN TEHANA CoUNrY.-A difficulty had
existed. for some time past, at Red Bluffs. Te-
hama county, between two Mexicans, named
Alijo Baldenelro and Anastacio Lopez. which
grew out of the tender affection which the par
ties bore to SehOrita JOsefa Salas. From the
testimony of that damsel, says the Red Bluffs
Beacon, it appears that quarrel took place
between the rivals on the evening OF 30th Nov.
Alijo then went away. and she saw him stand.
ing behind small house alongside of the road.
where Anastacio had to pass. When he came
along. Aljo jumped out with knife, and in
ficted deep and fatal wound. entering near
the shouder-blade, and passing down into the
lungs Anastacio only lived a few minutes.
Under-SherifI Hall. who happened to be in the
neighborhood at the time, pursued the pcrpe-
TRAITOR of the foul deed and arrested him, with
the bloody knife still in his hand. He was con-
veyed to the Jail, and confined in cell. Two
others arrested as accomplices, we're also lodged
in Jail. The two last were afterwards relea, ed,
there being no proof against them.

A PRINTER IN LrCK.-One of the pccniaritics
of printers is that they seldom live long enough
for Luck to catch them. To see printer old

be particularly under the influence of that dc
tum which says whom the gods love, die

Lately there was young English printer.
named Henry Floyd, engaged OH the Savannah
Georgian. and yesterday he sailed from this
port for Liverpool on the ship Georgia, having
received the welcome news that he was heir to
an estate of G60000. about 100000 a sum
much to be desired these 'hard times"
Floyd is calculated to make sensation with
his fortune, so in anticipation of 1.-The good time
coming" he did certainly "cut his stick" Yes

Della of the latest date received, says:
There has been much speculation during the
past fortnight in relation to the movements Of
Gen. Walker. The contemplated expedition to
Central America. was expected TO have sailed
before this We are not fully advised OF the
cause of the delay, but presume that the tight
ness of the money market, and the fact that
the United States war steamer Fulton whose
officers are Instructed to keep sharp look out
for the flibusterers, and is now lying below the
city, has had something to do with it. We are
assured by those who ought to know, that the
expedition will embark during the present week
under auspices highly favorable to the sue
cess Of the perilous enterprise. The operations
of the present expedition have been carried on
with more discretion and caution than have
characterized their predecessors.

The FORT CoLvnLE MIxEs.-The Olympia
(W. IT, Pioneer and Democrat says: .I1...
We are continually receiving various and
contradictory reports concerning the produc-
tyencss of the gold fields in the neighborhood
OF Fort C0lville, Thomson s river, etc, and We
at all times feel pleasure in giving publicly
10 all truthful representations relative thereto
We are permitted to make the following extract
from private letter written from the Dalles
and dated October 2Sth. The writer il gen.
teman of the most rigid veracty. We hope he
has not been deceived in the matter Of which he
diScourscs. He says:
From all accounts think there can be no
doubt but what they Uhe Colville mine4,) are
rich and extensive. Mr.. McCarther who is well
known here as truthful man, las just arrived
from the Suswap and COlvillc mines lie says
that those who have venturrd 10 go to the Sus-
wap are making. on an average, $50 per day,
and some have made as high as $40 Those
at COlville arc making from 81 to Sl0'
If We rrcolcct Alright, the Suswap river is
beiwccn Fort Cuville and Thompson's river
near the torty-ninth parallel. Should there be
gold in the country northward. in paying guam
titles, it were utter folly to suppose that that
region would not he prespcctcd.

TIE DIFFERENCE-Many people say that the
present stringency in the money market IL verse
than it was ia the great panic Of 1887. We
think not. Then we were Importing grain from
Europe to supply our own wants--ths "grsnsry
Of the world, T" as America had been considered
having given out. Now We have an abundance,
and large surplus to spare. Then all the
banks In the country with here and there an
exception had failed to pay specie-tbe bank
OF the United States leading the way in he
general reputation. Now the banks Of New
York, the money centre Of North Ameri-
ca, owing to the wise policy adopted by the
Democrats, stand as q breakwater upon the
rushing tide. and the New England banks gen.
orally also are drm upon the specie baiss Then
there was hardly any such thing known as me-
talic money. Now there is more of il dstribut-
ed in moderate sums aud in private hands than
ever was known before.
Then. il was a curiosity to see "mint drop;"
but now the number Of gold pieces laid up by
the prudent, frugal people, is more than twenty
times greater than it has been in the last TWEEN
ty years Then, when James G. King of the
house Of Prime, Ward j. King, went to Europe
to negotiate with the Barlngs to ship to the Uni
ted States one million Of metallic money to re-
lieve our necessities, the whole country shouted
with joy. Now we have steady current Of
nearly feur millions of dollars month, the pro-
duct of our own, since acquired soil California;
and we hardly give it thought. View the
subject, therefore, in whatever light you WILL
the present money troubles are not by any
means so great as they were in 1887. and they
will wear off in q much shorter time.-Nec Ha

KLAMATH RESERVATION, Nov. 23ds 1851.
For the past month, the Agent in charge has
been aware Of an attempt being made to unite
the different tribes upon the river and Hoopa
Valley, with the Indians who had been removed
from the vicinity Of Smith river. for the pur-
pose Of grand outbreak, at the head of which
was an Indian commonly known a. "Requa
Nike"
On the 10th inst. Mike came to the Agent
and Lieut.. Geo. Crook, and told them that the
Tolaws Gas the klamaths call them.) had laid
q plan to murder the Agent and Lieutenant |:
that they said if they killed them, all the pro-
perty would belong to them and they could
then &c TO the mountains; that they were to
eone up and ask the Agent for talk. when he
weuld take them into the house. they spring up
on him, and the white men with him, with their
knives, aud cut their thrOats At the same time
another party was to cross the river. and way
lay the Lieutenant, when, as they supposed. his
men would he easily whipped, as they would
run to the brush. On Saturday, 18th inst, they
attacked small party of Klsmaths, and wound
ed several, aud on Sunday the Agent went to the
village for the purpose of having them make
peace with the Klamaths, when he was immedi-
ately surrounded by some forty Of the TOlaws
in war rig, and to eXtrcate themselves were
forced to send for the guard. when, after talk
ing to them, he compelled them to go to their
homes and the Klamaths to Wakell station, at
the same time telling them that if they attempt
ed to fight, he would let the soldiers fire on both
parties; that there must be no lighting amongst
them; that he would protect one as much as the
other: II klamaths attacked the Tulaws, he
would fire upon the Klamaths, and he would do
the same to the Tolaws, if they attacked the
kamaths.
On Monday, 10th. the Agent succeeded in
getting them to make peace aud exchange d-la-
Que-ehcek
On Tuesday morning, 18th inst, an old squaw
came to the station and told the Agent that the
ION tak-et moW-e-na was very sick and wanted
to see him. In company with Mr.. Goodspccd,
he started for the village, distant about half
mile from the station, and had scarcely entered
the house of the supposed sick man, when Re
qua Mike stepped Into the door, remarking:
"How do you, Major" and presented a wager
TO the breast Of the Agent and fired, the muzzle
being within few inches of his breast The
quckness of the Agent in turning it aside ss
Mike pulled the trigger. was all that saved his
life The Agent and Mr.. GoOdspeed imnedi-
ntely seized Mike, when the Tolaws rushed up
on then and commenced to throw their arrows
A fight ensucd. which the Agent and Mr.. Good
speed sustained for at least fifteen minutes, un-
I'll relief arrived from the station, when the In-
dians were completely routed. with loss of
ten of their number killed. Since the fight.
about one hundred and forty have returned,
and are now living in their houses.

RAPID GROWTH or THE WEsT-The unparal-
lclcd growth of the West is strikingly shown by
the following figures: In 1910, the present
States of Wisconsin, and Iowa contained but
$4,000 people. In 1855, Wisconsin alone had a
population Of 552, l09; and in 1856 Iowa con-
tanned 509, Ala. These two States with Mineso-
Ia, now have a population Of million and a
half. AS the next Presidential election takes
place before another apportionment will be
made, these States. with then population of
two millions, will have fourteen electoral votes.
while South Carolina with less than 100000
white inhabitants, will have eight or more than
half as many
