A SHOOTING AFFAIR.-Mr. George Sanford
was arrested yesterday afternoon by Sheriff
Lewis for shooting at his brother, Mr.. Nelson
Sanford, with intent to kill. George was
brought before Justice Benham and gave
50, 500 bail for his appearance at 2 o'clock
this afternoon for examination. There has
been difficulty between the two brothers
since the death of their father, nearly three
years ago, growing out Of the division of the
property which their father left. Yesterday
afternoon about o'clock George went to the
Office Of his brother on Merwin street, (the
latter is engaged in the lumber business, and
sought an interview with him. They had
an interview together in the back Office, by
themselves. While they we're together
workmen in the lumber yard heard three
pistol shets fred, one Immediately after the
other. They rushed into the Office and found
the two brothers elutched together and pis-
tol in the hand of George. They were sep
arated and George retained while his brother
Nelson came up town to procure his arrest.
There was no one to witness the transaction.
George says hard words passed between them,
and his brother, exasperated by the epithets
applied to him, grabbed him by the throat
as he reclined upon a sofa. He (George) put
up his right hand to keep him of and his
thanh got between Nelson's teeth. George
says that he was partially upon his face at
this time, and with his disengagsd hand he
tooka revolver from his pocket and fred
twice ct Nelson, without being able to see
him so as to take any aim. He says he
thinks Nelson fred once at him and that
the ball cut away a portion of his left
thumb. An examination Of Nelson's revOl-
YER, however, showed that none of the charges
had been fred, while there were three charges
gone from Georges revolver.
Nelson says his brother assured him that
he was unarmed, and that he desired an en-.
tireIy peaceful interview. After they had
conversed a few moments, George said
20 Nelson, you and must die, and drew q
revolver and fred at him. He ran to him
caught hold Of the revolver, and George fred
it twice more, without doing any harm
Men came into the Office at that moment and
secured George. It is claimed by George
Sanford that his brother has defrauded hin
out of property left by his father, which
rightfulIy belongs to him. Nelson has heard
that his brother has made frequent threats
Of shooting him.
The affair is a most unfortunate one, ant
greatly deplOred by the numerous friends o
the psrties. The examination this afternoon
may establish the correct facts in the case
There was no party to witness the affray, 81
We have given the story as told by both thu
parties engaged. Neither Of them sustained
apy serisus Injury.

A "REMINISCENCES E.-The Esmeraida Star re-
wives the following reminiscenee in relation to
how Governor Downey got his money. 1t is not
complimentary to that eXpounder OF Constitu-
tons
BY penurious, miserly, Shylock system he
managed to get possession of one of the finest
ranches in the Southern portion of the State
Au American. by the name Of Carpenter who
came to California in very early day, long be.
fore it fell into the hands of the Americans, had
married into Spanish family, and came into
possession of one OF the finest ranches ON the San
Gabriel river, near Los Angeles. Becoming ac-
Quainted with Downey, aud needinga little money
to carry on his business or his rancho, he applied
TO him for a small sum, Offering the then usual
rate of interest, which was five per cent. per
month, BY some means or other the word com
pound was written in the nctc that was given,
and Carpenter who had all his life been upon the
frontiers, aud deprived OF the advantages Of
education, was ignorant OF the meaning of the
term. aud snnnnsod chat it was all right, SO long
as he regularly paid the Interest. But after a
while he was unable TO come to timc owing to
the depreciation Of the price of cattle, they being
the staple product of that section of the State
Carpenter woad frequently go to Downey and
explain his situation OF affairs, and was always
met in the most bland and easy manner possible.
" Never mind says be " it is all right" know
ing full well that in the rancho he had secured
10y mortgage that he had good security to the
amount OF ten times the value of the note ire
spectiyc of the live stock, The compound in
terest, however, rolled up so fast, and the time
having arrived when Downey could grab The
whole estate he brings suit, and a necessary
sequence, the whole passes into his hands Car
penter, broken.hearted and ruined, seeing the ad-
vantage that had been taken of bis want OF edu-
cation and the lrcachery practised upon him by
the man whom he supposed to be his friend dis
gusted with The world, and without place to
lay his head, proudly arrays himself in his best
attire, and taking his seat upon the side Of his
bed deliberately blows out his brains. Carpen-
ter the honest. conGding pioneer, becomes q
