TERRIBLE Work IN CALIEoRNIA.-We are
informed by gentleman who arrived night be.
tore last from Grass Valley, that terrible ira
gedy was enacted at Deer Creek, near that
place, on the I'd ult. A Dr. McMurtha and his
brother owned quartz vein there, which was
Jumped by twelve men. On the I'd ult. the
Jumpers entered q tunnel on the vein, barri-
caded the mouth of it with pine logs, and de-
clared that they would kill the first man who
should throw any dirt into the mouth of the
tunnel. DR.. McMurtha threw shovel full OF
dirt into the tunnel, and forthwith one of the
jumpers shot him dead with rife. Thereupon
tbs surviving brother drew his revolver and
hred all the charges, then took the revolver
from the body of his dead brother and fred all
its charges among the twelve. The result was
that four were killed and seven wounded. Mr..
McMurtha then gave himself up TO the officers
Of the law, and after an examination he was
held to have acted justi6ably, and he was dis
charged.
The people in the southern counties of the
State are still busted with hunting out and hang
ing the members of band of banditti that has
long infested that region, and committed num-
berless murders and robberies. These mis-
creants are principally Mexicans, headed by a
famous American desperate called Jack Pow
ers. Seven have been already captured and
hung, and others have been driven away.
Two Austrians residing on Elder Creek,
Shasta County, were murdered, while asleep, by
band OF six Mexican assassins, on the 23d of
'une.-Alta California, July 9Th.

the son OF German widow, residing on bod
worth street. near Broadway, suddenly disap-
peared on Friday last, and was missing until
Yesterday morning, when his dead body was
found in large trunk or chest in the house of
bis mother. It appears that on Friday, while
the mother was absent, the deceased was at
play with companion, and evidently got into
the trunk to conceal himself, when self adjust
ing lock closed the lid upon him and he was
smothcred. During Saturday and Sunday the
friends and neighbors looked in every direction
to find the boy, but without success. Yesterday
morning the mother was induced to open the

ate from il, expecting to find the body of rat,
