Bloody Tragedy---Three Men Killed.

Bloody yTragedy---Three Men Killed.
The Stockton .4rgsts of the 25th, contains
an account of q most terrible affray which
took place atSnellings Ranch, on the Mer.
ced river, on the Sd inst. The particulars
are in brief as follows:
Three men, named Charles F. Bloodworth,
DR.. j. W. Goodwin, and Benjamin White,
friends of Smelling who was lately murdered,
armed themselves and went in quest of three
men, friends of Edwards, the murderer Of
Smelling. Not meeting them, they returned
to Snelling's, and on the next day meeting
the men they sought, whose names were L
G. Barclay, VIM Stevens and James Wilcox,
they attacked them with pistols. Some
thirty shots we're fred in the melee, and
Barclay and Stevens were almost instantly
killed. After Barclay had fallen, and
was dying, he shot Goodwin through the
head and killed him on the spot. Bloodworth
and White were uninjured. Wilcox made
his escape. Goodwin was formerly q prac.
tisng physician in Stockton. Further dis
turbances arefeared at Snelling's.

ing out of building whittier he had gone
on business. The villain attempteSto hit
him q second time, but failed. Folger's
head was badly cut by the blow which 'he
received and bled very ,profusely. but no
essential injury was inflicted Folger made
some severe but proper comments on some
fighting fremen in Mondays Union, and it
is supposed that one of the party is the per.
son who attacked him. He should go pre-.
pared for such scoundrels.

TALKING IN HIS SLEEP.--The profound
sleeper who presides over the scissors OF a
paper which is printed on Huntoon street,
Oroville, was disturbed in his slumbers yes
terday, by puff which his bantling received
at our hands, and being partially walked, he
actually "made scratch" and perpetrated
a right peert reply. The report Of his de-
cease is untrue; "he is not dead, but sleep
eth" We expect to be "laughed to scorn'
for veuturng this last assertion out IL Is
true, and neither We nor be care who knows
it.

San francisco Argus says that the inventor
of that frightful instrument of torture, the
ACCORDION, was German malefactor, who
was sentenced to imprisonment for life, and
that he was granted his liberty as a reward
for his ingenuity. The wretch should have
been hanged, and his invention should have
been aunihilated with him.

ConsIItationaI Convention.


to have Constitutional Conventional
least portion Of them A committee of
ten was appointed upon this subject. and a
majority Of them seven in number, made
report on the 27th to the effect that the people
had declared in favor of the measure. and
reported bill providing for the calling of
constitutional Convention. We are mott
among those who believe that the people
decided, under the law, in favor of calling
Convention, nor DO we admit its necessity or
policy,
1T will be remembered that'the constitu-
ton provides that--''if at any time two
thirds of tie Senate and Assembly shall
think it necessary to revise and change this
entire constitution, they shall recommend
to the electors, at the next election for men,
bers of the Legislature, to vote for or against
Convention; and if it shall appear that
majority of the electors voting at such elec-
tion have voted in favor of calling O conven-
tion," etc, etc.
The language of this provision, it appears
to us, is plain enough to admit of no differ
ence of opinion concerning its intent and
meaning, and the question is capable of be-
ing easily determined by a reference to the
when the recommendation to change the
entire constitution was submitted to the
people there were 93,G43 votes cast for
Members of Assembly; of this number 30,-
226 were cast in favor of calling a conven-
ton. and IL $50 against the recommends
ton. The $4,000 voters who remained ST.
lent upon the question, undoubtedly did so
with the understanding that their silence
would be recorded in the negative, in ac-
cordance with the plain provision of the ex-
isting constitution. This is the way the
question appears tous, and we verify be.
lieve if the Recommendation was again sub
mittcd to the people, with the understand.
ing that plurality would determine the
result, the 5000 votes would be added to
the II 900 in the negative.
1t is only the restless spirits Of scheming
politicians, who now insist that the recon-
mendation has been carried They see
plethoric State Treasury. and must originate
schemes for its depletion.
Governor johnson, although favoring the
calling ofa convention, was forced to the con-
cluson that the recommendation had been
negatived. The Attorney General arrives
at the same conclusion, and we do not doubt
but that the good sense of the Legislature
will do.the same thing, and let well enough
alone. All necessary amendments can be-
accomplished without the expense and
trouble Of changing the entire constitution.
Let the Legislature 60 to work in that man.
ner, and provide for bieanial sessions of the
Legislature, and they will accomplish
much good.
