FEGnrFuL TRAGEDY IN SAN JosE.-The
San Jose Reporter has the following:
On Sunday evening last, while party of
Caliionians were celebrating a marriage at
the residence Of Mr.. Henry Bee, an English
man, who has been in San Jose for many
years, an alteration arose among some Of
the guests in relation to the ownership of a
guitar. During the melee a Spanard named
.Philip uernandez fired a pistol at Mr.. Bees
son John, youth of about twenty -one years
OF age. The ball tool, effect in his head and
Killed him almost instantly. Mr.. Bee then
rushed into the room but another desperate
named Jesus Flores fired pistol at him also
The bullet entered the thigh of Bee and
shattered the bone so dreadfully that the sur
geons found it necessary to amputate the
limb yesterday.
Mr. Bee is very old man and it is ex-
tremely doubtful whether he can recover
from the injury. Flores was arrested yester-
day and lodged in Jail. Hernandez fled and
has not since been heard from The officers
are now in pursuit of him and it is to be
hoped that he may be caught.

The King and his Ministers are very anX-

idea that constitutional reforms are now to

Garbadi instead Of ceasing hostiities be-

to greater energy, considering them as the
results of fear alone, and indications OF
weakness, most encouraging to the friends Of

GEN JAMES SHIELDS Without the parade
OF announcement that usually attends the
movements Of individuals of much less dis.
tlnctlon. General Shields arrived in this city
this morning, by the Overland stare from
Los Angeles. His visit to California is a pro-
Iongation Of tour originally designed for
the benefit Of IA constitution that was begin
ming to feel the effects of the arduous trials
to which it has been subjected within the
past twelve years. During the war with
Mexico, the General held the commission ola
Brigadier, and served with distinction to the
close of that contest At Cerro Gordo he
was most seriously wounded, beyond all
hopes of recovery, it was thought at the
time, and indeed his escape with life was all
most miraculous. His political services have
been of no less prominent and distinguished
character; and after twelve years of public
life, serving one term as L. S. Senator from
illinois and another from Minnesota he seeks
a temporary retirement from positions which
he has filled with distinguished credit and
unblemished honor.-Bulistin, Wednesday,

TIE FoRcEs.-ln paper lately read before
the French Society of Engineers, NJ Love
contends that sound, heat and light arc pro-
dueed by the same agency and that in the
case Of sound, the air or solid bodies only act
as Intermediates by which electric fluid is
set in motion. Sound, heat and light are,
according to this view, only different aceel-
Grated vibrations of the same fluid. The
Press Scientiique, which records these spec
ulations, does not supply the arguments ON
which they are founded but in every direc
tion ocular intimations are arising that give
US assurance that the speculative intellect of
the age will not let the question rest until it
has established, by experimental research,
the fact that light heat, electricity, magnet
ism, chemical affinity and mechanical powers
are but deriyative aud convertible forms OF
one force.-N T. Times.

Mr.. SPURGEoN "IMpRovEs THE OccAsIoN. -
You will have heard that for the purpose of
recruiting his health, this celebrated preacher
Is making two months tour in Germany
and Switzerland, 1t so happened that he
was in Baden Baden, on the occasion of the
meeting Of the nine crowned heads, and he
has sent home to the British Banner a short
notice of his views on the memorable subject
Of course, as minister Of the Gospel, he was
bound to notice the desecraton of the Sab
bath, Of which "the Lords annointed' were
guilty-lhe sacred day being unscrupulouslv
chosen for the grand conference. Without
going deeply into politics, Mr.. Spurgeon lets
it be plainly seen that he shares the common
belief Of Napoeon's having had some sinister
object in view in going to Baden. He gives
the best reasons too for this belief being so
common, as it arises out Of the previous tor
tuous policy and dark reserve of the French
ruler, which have been such that he could
hardly now get the credit of meaning hon
estiy even when lie really had the best Object
in view. Mr.. Spurgeon witnessed Napoleon's
departure from Baden, and remarks that the
silence Of the crowd assembled 20 see him off
was one of the most remarkable circumstan-
ces he ever noted-so deep and profound was
the ominous absence of the Eintest demon
stration. The preacher commends this method
of marking disapproLation as far more ex-
pressiye and diguied than any other that
could have been pted-London cor
INTENDING INVASION OF NAPLES A letter

has been carried on of both the civil aud
military resources of the command From

GUS part in aiding the transport Of men who
are hocking to the patriot standard. 1t is n
disputable that great disaffecton prevails

in his favor Garbalbi counts upon with the
utmost confidence Depend upon it you will
hear stirring news soon, if diplomacy don't
put its mschievous foot in the affair and OF
that there is no prospect for the present.
