THE HoMcIDE AT FNcAsTLE, VA
We see it stated that on Thursday last
James Mcdowell, president of the Far
mcrs' Bank of Hncaste, was shot in his
Office by Henry w. Bowyer, a highly
respectable aud wealthy farmer of that
county. A letter to the Richmond En-
quirer, written on Friday, says:
An examining court was held to-day,
which committed Mr.. b. for trial before
the circuit court. The testimony before
the examining court went to show that
Mr.. Mcdowell had seduced weak mind
cd daughter of Mr.. Bowyer's from her
home, and furnished her with way-bill
and money to 90 North, where he would
meet and provide for her comfort; that
he had urged her to this course on the
ground that he had learned that some one
intended to write an anonymous letter to
her father, acquainting him with their
intimacy, &c. and that if her father
found it out he would probably kill
her; that five of Mr.. Bowyer's servants
had frequently carried notes from Mr..
M. to Miss b.; that Mr. NJ had been
frequently seen prowliug about the pre-
misses of Mr.. b, late of evenings, and
that Miss b. had been seen on the same
evenings sauntering in the same direc-
tons; that Miss b, did leave home and
was found by her brother, who went in
pursuit, in the city of Baltimore, in a
suspicious house Mr., Mcdowell also
left home few days after Miss b. left,
and was absent some time. Mr.. Bowycr
brought his daughter from Baltimore and
placed her in charge of DR.. Stribbling,
of the Western Lunatic Asylum, after
which the shooting occurred, which re-
suited in the death of Mr. Mcdowell.
Mr.. Bowyer is, in all respects, one of
our very best citizens remarkably gen
tie and courteous in his intercourse with
his neighbors, and peaceful in all his
counsels.

LIKES THE SUPREME CouRT.--The San Francisco
Titcgram says: "We have Supreme Court in
whom the people have confidence lisa tribunal
that will be apt to do justice by making the long
desired distinction between the honest settler,
who goes upon unclaimed land in good faith, for
the purpose Of cultvating it and causing it to
bloom into lifetime home, and the thieving
wretch whose only object is to jump harass,
annoy, and derive whatever pecuniary benefit he
may, without planting a seed or making a blade
Of grass to grow. We believe that the vexed
question to which we allude will be settled by
our present Supreme Court pretty nearly to the
satisfaction Of every reasonable, welldisposed,

BATTLE wITu THE INDIANS OK MAD RIVER
We received letter from Capt. Messec, of the
Indian fighters, on Saturday evening, bringing
the intelligence that an engagement had taken
place. On the arrival Of the company at Par
dee's ranch, they found the buildings burned, and
that most Of the stock had been driven off. AS
certaining the route which the Indians had taken,
as soon a preparation could be made, Messec
started with small party, in pursuit, and came
upon their camp about eight miles above, on Mad
river The Indians were fired upon-eight killed,
several wounded, and five taken prsoners-two
of which had since died from their wounds. One
man belonging to company was wounded by a
rife shot. His name is John lIarpts, from Cana
dian Bar. Trinity river. The ball entered below
the collar bone, and came out near the spinc--
The wound is not believed fatal.

We have received from Fowler a. Wells, New
York, work by Thomas Gregg. entitled Fruit
Culture or, Guide to the Cultivation and Man
ogement of Fruit Trees with descriptions of
Fruits, fully illustrated. Price, so cents.
Fruit culture, in this county, has just begun to
receive the attention it deserves, and we gladly
welcome this work. as the matter it contains is
well calculated to aid and Instruct, and conse-
quently benefit, the fruit-growcr. Every person
who has tree, or ground enough to grow one
on, should read it. There is no doubt but what
in this county any fruit can be made profitable if
judiciously cultivated.

TOWNSEND q MCKINNEY VS. J. D. SMITH, Ann
OTHEEs.-This suit occupied the entire term OF
the late District Court in Shasta Co. The case
was tried by jury, who gave verdict of Sl0,0 900
for plaintiffs. Garter & Hinckley, and Judge
Pitzer, of :hs place, for plaintiffs SprOgue and
eX-Gov Johnson for defendants. The circum-
stances under which the suit was brought as near
as we can learn, are these
The plaintiffs and those under whom they de-
rived title, constructed dam across Clear creek
in the latter part of November, or first of Decem
Der. 1853 three hundred yards below Brggsvillc,
and constructed ditch therclrom, 10 feet wide
at the top, feet at bottom, and feet deep
Water was turned through the ditch in Novcm-
Der, 1854.
Defendants constructed dam and ditch from
the same Greek, commencing at the Tower House,
some 25 miles higher Zip, conducting the water
to mining grounds Just above plaintiffs dana
portion of the water being then turned into the
plaintiffs dam and ditch, in very muddy state,
and portion turned into Clear creek below plain
tills' dam.
Suit was brought to recover damages for di-
verting the water of Clear creek, and adultera-
ting the same during the months OF June, July,
August and September, 1856, at time when
plaintiffs ditch was capable of carrying all the
waters Of the Creek.
A jury was empaneled in the case on the 4th
day of October and rendered a verdict on the
29th, for plaintiffs, in the sum of 81 500 for di-
verting the waters, and $2,5OO for adutcration.
SINGING SCHooI.-The season for singing school
is at hand and we are glad to know that Mr.. Nor
cross has commenced a school which promises to
be well attended. 1t should be. There is not n
more instructive and pleasant way of passing the
long winter evenings before us. We give below
an extract from the pen of Pnor I. +. WOODBURY.,
editor Of the New York Musical Pioneer, and au-
thor of The " Dulcimer,' Ouscd by by Mr.. Nor
cross class,) and other valuable musical works
1t is his opinion of the singing school, and its
moralzing tendencies
And, as the evenings grew longer, with what
bright anticipatiOns did we look forward TO the
singing school !-anticipations, too, so fully re-
allied, for there each hour was fraught with true
happiness. Even now, as we recall the scene,
each familiar face seems to wear smile, as
though nought Of sorrow or of sadness could en-
ter the singing SCHOOL, Though a nearer view
reveals some grimaccs which were indeed far
from smiling, yet, these partaking more Of the
ludicrous than the sad, serve but to enhance the
ioyousness of the picture From our own cxpe-
riencc, and the testimony of thousands of others,
we confidently affirm our belief that the sing
ing classes" of our land are among the best
schools of morals, refinement and entertainment
of which our country can boast. Success, we
would ever say, TO the singing school !"
And if any of our young people wish work
which will aid them TO advancement in the art
of music, let them subscribe for the Pioneer. 1t
is published monthly, is well filed with choice
literary matter and new music, and costs only
ffig cents gear.

THE Shasta papers announce the organization,
in that place, of Library Association. With
the number of intelligent people located in and
about Weaveryille, it is surprising that some or
ganization Of the kind has not been thought of
here. There are many persons living within an
inconsidcrabe distance of town, who, we have
not the least doubt, would readily favor such a
movement In nearly every cabin may be found
many Of the best works now published, while the
shelves Of our book stores contain piles of dusty
yellowcovcred literature The cost of the best
books is but little, and yet many persons cannot
afford TO purchase as often as they would, and
the books they have are read and rc-rcad until
they are worn out. A good library would not
cost very great amount.

Mr. VAREY, formerly a ranchman on Trinity

THE RArN.-At all the different points through

us, the late storm has been unusually severe for

more than usual at this season. The roads
