In Justice to Mr. Broderck, i: shOula be remembered
tbst he gave bis main vote the policy of the Ma
tiopsl Administration in regard to the sdn scion OF
Kap,ss before the resolutions Of instruction from the
last Leei.lsture reached Washington. Again, II
sbouh be remembered that or the last four years the
Democracy Of Cal fornis have consisted oftwo bitterly
hostile fsctors-the TsmmsOy snd ChivarY mat the
TauInsny faction has sympathlzed with the S0.s
Of New York, and perhaps have been even more nos
tile to the Pro Slavery feeling aud party mat MI
frederick has been the leader Of the Tammapy men;
ard that in the changing fortunes of the two factions
M b. was CT occasion, legally elected to the United
States Senate The Democracy Of the State has
charged position far more than Mr. b. has.

Padre Santian. the Mexican priest, who was stationed
at the Mission Dolores in 1885, and Sanlllan, now
living in MaZstlan has made deposition before the
IT, s. Conful there saying that the deed was made 10
him in 1850, and antedated, and he adds tnat ne wiz
tell ell the particulars in Mazatlsn before oDlied
States Commissioner, on cCn5ltlOn that the American
Courts will give the land TO the Catholic Churon anu
to the far for public instruction. 1t is queer thing
that this testimony could not be obtained durlng the
seven years that elapsed from the time the claim was
known ND TO the time when IT was decided IN 1871.
The case will doubt occupy An important place III
tue m gatian Of the country, and may lead to serious
trouble. Ii has long history-too long 10 be gwen
IN this letter. 90
Some weeks ago q Mr.. Charles Rose, wealthy
merchant of lreka, was murdered in s store aud the
building then eel on fire to conceal the murder:
The store was burned down, but the coFEe was found
I'm \ 70 III.
killed by blows with hatchet before the fire began.
There wss no clue 20 identity the murderer q 'hrst
but sfterward suspicion fixed itselt upon DR. Chares
I'ndeThiil who has since been arrested. lhe tesu
mopy against him is said to be conclusive is sup
posed to he by the people of Ireks who became SO
much excited that the Snerif had TO summon armed
to protect the jail and the prisoner from mop NO
lence. The testimony against Underhll, as elected
on the Coroners inquest has not been published but
two of the main facts said to be that the day be-
fore the murder Underhil bought Ratchet just like
the one with which Rose killed, and that on the
nigh, the crime was committed Underhi was seen TO
come from the vicinity of the store and soon after
ward TO wssh his hands. About eight months ago
French courtessn of Ireks was murdered 10 manner
similar 70 the murder of Rose, ard yarious clrcum
stances 20 to show that the murderer was the same
person in both cases; 60 Dr. tEderhill has double
load Of suspicion 10 bear.
Another case in which popular excitement and
indignation have risen almost TO the pitch OF Lynch
execution occurred in Marysville on the I'd inst.
David Highland killed his step son, two years OF age,
after long OF oruees. Ii seems that High
apd hated the child because it born to his wife
only four months sfter his marriage, and he treated it
with Increasing violence and brutality. de beat II
