MURDER AT DUTCH FLAT-The Auburn Press,
gives the following particulars of the murder
of Mr.. Wilson, at Dutch Flat, which occurred
on the 9Th instant:
Some few weeks ago, a Swede, by the name
of Moier called on Mr.. Wilson, who keeps a
boarding house in Dutch Flat, aad asked for
work. Wilson told him he did not wish to hire
Moer then asked for work sufficient to pay for
his board. which Wilson granted. Soon after
this MIR. Wilson, the deceased, was taken sick
and remained confined to his bed, Moier wait
ing upon him. Things remained in this way
until Tuesday last, when Moier presented bill
to Wilson of 81 per day for labor and attend
ance. Mr.. Wilson reminded Moer of the un-
derstandng they had when he came there, and
frankly told him he could not pay it. Moier
then retired from the bed where Wilson lay,
and prepared himself for the butchery of his
victim. Waiting until Wilson had gone to
sleep, he fell upon him with knife, and literally
dissected his borels. The deceased fingered until
the next day, when he died. When the butch
cry became known through the town, it caused
the greatest excitement. Preparations were
Immediately made to lynch Moer, and but for
the expeditions manner the prisoner was run
out of town, undoubtedly justice would have
been summarily administered. The officers aud
prisoner were pursued some distance out OF
town by the excited people, but were not over
taken. Moier was safely lodged in Jail on
Wednesday.

CHINESE GAxBLrNG.-We are informed that
John Alb Yot, we'll known in this place as wash

gaming, one evening last week. The money
Was won by strange Chinaman, who came to
town about week ago, and borrowed a dollar
and a half for a ''stake" ofa Chinese doctor
with this he commenced "bucking" against All
Yops bank, and "raked in" all the money that
the latter and his trends could raise. The lucky

which created great sensation in Chinadom,

A DEFAULTER.-.Chas. NJ. Pine, editor of the
Chicago Herald, and Marshal of Northern Illi-
nois, has largely over1rawn his accounts, and
rendered himself amenable to the Sub Treasury
law. The charges were preferred by Mr.. Mar
tin, his book-keeper. He had drawn $1,000 in
four months, his salary being only $4,000 a
year. Martin offers TO prove every charge with
other testimony than his own. 1t is reported
that when these charges we're made known to
the President, he replied that he could not re-
move him, as it would confess the truth of what
Douglas said in regard to the Illinois appoint
ments, but that the Chicago Herald would be
