says the Red Bluff Independent, Mexican
by the name of Jesus Maria was stabbed in
the pit of the stomach by another Mexican
named Jesus Berassa, while talking near
the door Of bis house, and fell upon the
floor insensible. Physicians were called in,
but could render no assistance. He recov-
cred sufficient to describe the murderer, but
died Friday afternoon. Berassa escaped,
but was pursued by Deputy Sheriff Stafford,
who found him at Cottonwood, and on at
tempting to arrest him, the Mexican drew
his knife, aud showed fight, but George
"coerCed" him by sticking the muzzle Of
six-shooter in his face, and he capitulated,
was ironed, and brought to this place. The
prisoner freely confessed TO Deputy Sheriff
Stafford that he intended to kill deceased,
that 1t was an old grudge of long standing,
that Jesus Maria had stabbed him some nine
years before, and that be had sworn to kill
him at sight

tula. 1t is about half as large as the honey

A GREAT SHAKsPEARIAN FEsTIvAL.-A

Air--"Benny Ravens, OIL"
When all OF us were youngsters,
It was our lot TO know
A very kind old gentleman,
Called Uncle Sammy, OH
For us he did provide a school,
And paid our bills also,
That we might learn to fight by rule
For Uncle sammy OBJ
Uncle sammy, OIL
gnole Sammy, OIL
That we might learn to fight by rule
For Uncle Sammy, OH
And when we are all ready
Forth TO the world to ge,
A place of pay and honor too,
On each he will bestow.
Heonly asks us In return
To shield him from the foe
That e'er should dare insult or harm
Our Uncle Sammy, OIL &c.
Our good old Uncle Samuel
Is now in great distress,
And enemies come thick and fast,
And sorely round him press;
Now Is the time, If ever,
Our gratitude to show,
And boldly strike, with swerd In hand,
For URcle Sammy, oh &C.
What harm the good old man has done
Nobody seems to know;
Nor why so many hostile hands
Now aim at him the blow,
Save that the old republican
Has scorned to kiss the toe
His cotton Majesty presents
To Uncle Sammy obi &c.
Well do We all remember
When we were young cadets,
And eager for the time to wear
The sword and epaulettes;
A soldiers sword has each one now,
And Uncle Sam foe;
Then strike for days of "Auld lang syne,"
And Uncle Sammy, OIL &c.
Now, by each star upon our Gag
And every stripe we swear,
To Uncle Sam alone belongs
The swords we proudly wear;
And when his bugle summons us,
We're ready all to go,
And fight beneath the Stars and Stripes
For Uncle Sammy, OIL &c.

GALLIPoLIs, Aug. 28.-The battle at

ultaneou,ly Our men immedia.el,
formed for battle and fought brayely
while they saw but lttle chance for sue
cess, the enemy being too powerful. Col
Tyler sent forward 10 til" baggage trs,R
which was coming up three miles dis
iant, and had il turned back toward Gau-
ley, which Point it reached in safety.
Companies B. c and suffered most
severe Y. They particularly were in the
hottest OF the fight and stood up TO II
bravely, and finally fought their way
through fearful odds, making dreadful
slaughter IN the enemy's rauks. The
rebel forces consisted OF 5000 infantry.
400 cavalry and 10 guns. The Federal
forces scattered after they had cut their
way through but soon formed again and
fired, but received no reply or pursuit
from the enemy. Our loss cannot be
definitely ascertaiued. though not over
600 are missing out OF the 900 engaged.
The rebel loss is fearful. Lieut.. Col.
Creighton captured the enemy's colors
and two prisoners.

if not given, is charged to the injustice
of the Sheriff; and if given, creates the
ill-wil Of creditor and attorney. In SO
far as most men could, We think our
present Sheriff has given satisfaction.
But the Convention has seen fit to take n
new man, and put Mr. GILLErr in nomi-
nation. Our sincere opinion is that the
LETT has alway: proven himself popu-
lar officer in several positions which he
has bad in this township, and has always
run far ahead of his ticket. He is an in
telligent man, of good business qualifca-
lions, temperate and correct in his habits,
and Of sufficient decision and energy.
We don't believe there is man in the
county who would make better or more
popular Sheriff than Mr.. GrLLETr. We
think he cannot but secure the election
which he so well deserves.
we could say many words OF praise
for the other candidates, but our article
is already too long. They are all men
of good character, temperate and intelli-
gent, abundantly fitted for the duties Of
the respective Offices for which they are
named. Indeed, to man onl y regard
ful of character and capacity, there pre-.
sents not a word of objection to the tick
ct. The farce of Union ticket will be
played by the Democrats and disappont-
ed Office seekers TO defeat it. probably,
but we don't believe it can succeed.
