Homicide.

On Tuesday last Mexican miner was
killed on ShafFer's Gulch, branch of Middle
Creek, about mile and a half east of this
place, under the following circumstances, as
near as we have been able to learn:
1t appears that the Mexican was living
with a squaw at that place, and that she
owned several dogs, which had been commit
ting depredatons on some poultry belonging
to John Hoy, who resides in the same
neighborhood Hoy, in order to protect his
poultry from future depredations, went to
where the dogs were and commenced shoot
ing them, whereupon the squaw, and several
more of her tribe who were present, set up
great outcry, which soon broughtthe Mexican
to the scene. Hoy, who was the only white
man present, states that the Mexican ad-
vanced upon him with knife in his hand land
that be several times warned him to approach
no closer. The Mexican continued to ad-
vance until within a few feet of Hoy, who
fired his gun at him, when the man instantly
fell forward, dead. Hoy then came into
town and gave himself up to the authorities,
and had an examination before Justice Knox
which resulted in his acquittal.
Coroner Lynch, on being notified of the
occurrence. empannelled jury and repaired
to the scene Examination showed that
deceased was about thirty years of age, and
that his death resulted from gun shot
wound, the ball having entered the right side
of the breast, below the collar bone, and
ranging downward, passed out below the
fifth rib, making hole an inch and half in
diameter. The jury rendered a verdict that
deceased came to his death from the effects of
gunshot wound, inflicted by John Hoy, on
the 1st day of October, 1867.

Osr of the humanitarian movements of

ONE of the humanitarian movements of
our times, although little known as such.
can hardly be over estimated i'll its impor-
tance upon the well being of our widely
scattered communities. The population of
the American States is in many sections
so sparse, that skillful physicians are hardly
available to them. Vast numbers of our
people are obliged to employ in sickness such
medical relief as they can hear of from each
other, or indeed any they can get from any
quarter. Hence arises the great consumption
of patent medicines among us, greater by
far than in any of the old countries, where
skliful physicians are accessible to all
classes. Unprincipled men have long ayailed
themselves Of this necessity, to palm off their
worthless nostrums, until the word has
become synonymous with imposition and
cheat One of our leading Chemists in the
East, Dr. AVER is pursuing a course which
defeats this iniquity. He brings not only
bear, for the produ ton of the best remedies
which can be made. These are supplied to
the world. in a convenient form, at low
prices, and the people will no more buy
poor medicines instead of good, at the same
cost, than they will bran instead of -four
The inevitable consequence of this is, that the
vile compounds that flood our country are
discarded for those which honestly accom-
plish the end in view which cure. Do we
over estimate its Importance, in believing
that this prospect of supplanting the by
word medicines, with those of actual worth
and virtue, is fraught with immense conse-
quence for good to the masses of our people.

Sheridan.

While at Leavenworth, on bis way to the
Indian country, General Sheridan received a
summons to report at Washington to testify
before the Congressional Investigating Com
mittee. He promptly obeyed the summons,
and the loyal people of the East have en-
braced the occasion to testify their apprecia
ton of the hero of the Shenandoah, and to
express their opposition to the evil policy Of
the corrupt man who removed him from
command at New Orleans.
At St. Louis he was received by large
concourse of admiring citizens, and was
escorted through the city at the head of a
procession over two miles in length. A
similar ovation awaited him at Philadelphia,
where he was welcomed by the Governor and
most distinguished men Of Pennsylvania. =
At New York be was welcomed by a turn
out of ten thousand veterans. and the dis
matches state that his reception was s. one of
the orandest ever given public man in that
city." From New York and Brook yn he
will 90 to Boston, where the loyal people of
New England propose to welcome and greet
him as favorte champion of Congressional
Reconstruction, and stauch defender of
radical Union principles.
Truly Sheridan is the idol of the Nation,
and to day he welds greater power and
influence over the minds and hearts Of the
people than does Andrew JohLson and his
satellites who sit in high places and labor to
thwart the loyal will of the Republic.

SUGGEsTIvE.-AS San Francisco correspond
ent of an interior Democratic paper states
that Judge Hagar, Democratic Senator from
San Francisco, Zach. Montgomery, and Rev.
0. p. Fitzgerald, are engaged in drafting a
new School Bill. which will be presented to
the next Legislature for passage. 1t is
understood that the new bill is designed to
change the present School Law in every
particular with the exception of the section
which provides for the maintenance of
separate schools for colored children. We
do not believe the Legislature will repeal the
present School Law but the drafting of a
new bill clearly illustrates the hostility of its
authors to the admirable system of free
schools which is to day the crowning glory
of the State.

thing substantial might have been accom-
plished before the rainy season set in, to
compell the stopping of shaft sinking aud
