A Sedueer Killed.

Tho California Express of yesterday con-
taius full account of the killing at San
Juan. Nevada county, of William Reynolds.
formerly driver of the California Stage
Company's Bidwell coach, by man named
Northrop, with whose wife Reynolds had
been improperly intimate. The story of the
killing is in brief as follows:
About 6 o'clock on Saturday evening, Rey-
nolds drove his coach up to the door of the
Union Ho,el in San Juan, and after holding
q short conversation with some gentlemen in
the second story Of the hotel, he went down
stairs and meeting Northrop. shook hands
with him. after which he engaged in CONVEX
sation with q relative of Mrs. Northrop,
named Moore. While talking with Moore a
pistol was fired. the conclusion from which
extinguished the only light in the room. and
directly thereafter six more shots were
fired. Moore then exclaimed "the black
hearted son Of bitch is dead, and would
like to know if there are any more of the
same sort" Reynolds was probably killed
by the first shot. A Mr.. Elrod, while lay.
ing out the body, discovered that the de.
ceased had received six shots ; two in the
back and four in the breast. Northrop i'm
mediately gave himself up to Moore who is
constable. A coroncr's jury returned
verdict to the effect that Reynolds was killed
by pistol in the hands Of Northrop.
We formerly knew Reynolds we'll, and
can bear testimony to his universal popular.
ity among those who know him in Butte
county, and can but regret his death and
the circumstances which induced it.

THEATRE LAST NIeHr Tho largo audi
ence which greeted the Adams Company
last evening was gratifying testimonial to
the popularity of the actors. The truth is
Adams is universally funny and "tickles''
an audience "nearly to DEATH" and accom-
panied by such pleasing artists as Miss
Hudson and Miss Granice, Mr.. Myers and
the others who compose the company, make
altogether the most successful company OF
actors who are at present travelling through
the interior towns. Sam Patch, Cousin Joe,
the songs and recitations were most favora-
bly, received, as was the whole performance.
We are glad Adams & Co., have came here
and hope they may have an overwhelming
house tonight.

COMPLIMENTARY BENEFIr.-A publish.
ed correspondence in another column will
apprise our readers that a complimentary
benefit has been extended to Mr.. w. II,
Brown, the manager Of the Theatrical Com.
pany now occupying the Theatre. Mr.. Brown
will be remembered by our theatre gosrs as
an old favorite among US. and the announce
ment of his benefit will doubtless call out q
decided expression Of popular sentiment in
his favor. The bill presented--a most ex-
cellent one-is the last attraction. The
benefit should insure full house; and so it
doubtless will.

The "PAcIFIc" BOTTLE SToRY.-Some
time since, an account, taken from the Paris
papers, was extensively circulated here, of
the discovery of bottle that had been wash
ed ashore on the coast of France, containing
q paper purportng to have been written by
a passenger on board tho Inflated Pacific,
just as she was going down. The story, like
all others of its kind, was supposed to be a
hoax, but the editor of the Norwolk (Con-
nectcutO Gazette, believing that the paper
was written by Legrand Smith. of Norwalk,
VITO was lost on the steamer Pacific, COM
municated with his friend in Paris on the
subject, and made especial inquiries about
the handwriting The friend answers prompt
ly, gives particulars, and the Gazette anti
cipates that further investigation will dem
onstrate that this curious waif is really the
only remnant in existence of the lost steam
ship. The editor has written to Paris tor a
fac simile of the writing, in order to test its
Commences Journal.

ATTEMPTED SUIcIpE.-A man named VIM
Dolan was discovered yesterday morning
hanging by n rope around his neck from a
beam in the stable of his house on Stockton
street near Union. He was immediately cut
down. 1t is said that intemperance and pc
cuniary embarrassment conspired to produce
the partial insanity which led him to make
this attempt against his own life. He was
taken to the Station House, where he will
be locked up few days for safe keeping,
when doubtless he will repent Of his evil in
