SHooTING.-Last week a shooting affray
took place at Draper's ranch, near Millylle.
between a father and son named Manakin. It
appears that the parties got into dispute
about their stock q few days before the
shooting referred to, and the son expressed
himself as being very much dissatisfied. The
day after the dispute the elder Manakip
rode out into the woods to look after some
stock, and while riding near thicket a shot
was hred at him by some unseen person. the
ball whzzing close to his person. A dav or
two after this occurrence he and Mr.. Dranor
went out to drive up band of horses. and
when passing along the road, near the house
OF the latter, young Manakin stepped out
from the brush and ordered his father to halt
The order not being obeyed he raised his
riile and fired at his father, but the shot
iaiief to take effect. He then drew single
barrel pistol and discharged that also, but
the shot missed its mark The old man,
thinking the shooting had been on one side
long enough, proceeded to try his hand at
the business. Leveling a shot gun at his
dutiful son, he let drive, and succeeded in
lodging several small shot in Hopefuls car
case. lie then drew six-shooter, but the
son, entertaining wholesome fear of that
weapon, retreated behind large oak tree
The old man rode around and around this
tree. firing an occasional shot whenever he
could catch a glimpse of his son, until his
revolver was empty. Seeing that the old
mans pistol was empty, tie son retreated
some distance and began to reload. at the
same time swearing vengeance for the way
he had been treated. The old man then
concluded to change his base and mode of
operations, and retreated to MillyIle, where
he entered a complaint against his noble boy
for attempting to kill him. The warrant was
placed in the hands of Sheriff Greene on
Tuesday, when he repaired to the scene of
the conflict. On Wednesday he arrested
young Manakin and took him before Justice
Pierce, but before the case could he called
the father and son, through the interposition
OF citizens of Millville. compromised their diff
cultieS, the old man giving the young one the
yaller mar" and colt and each promising
not to shoot again at the other. The old
man then refusing to prosecute, the case was
dismissed. 1t is some consolation to know
that this worthy parent and dutiful offspring
are not permanent residents of our county.

A CHANCE TO INvEsT.-Any Seymourite
who believes that the Democratic candidate
for President is really as popular as his ad-
mirers represent him, is invited to call at
Wells. Fargo & Co.'s Express Office, and
close with the following offer, to wit: 500
that Shasta county goes for Grant and Col.
California 800 that they carry New York
500 that they carry Pennsylvania; 800
that they carry Ohio, and 800 that they re-
ceiye a majority of votes in the Electoral
College. These bets are to be taken to
gether, and according to Democratic state
ments, there is no danger of losing more
than one of them. Walk up, gentlemen, and
back your opinions or stop blowing.

A CASE OF DEsERTIoN.-Some time since.
an item was published in this paper relativa
to a merchant being deserted when his fan.
lily became aware that he had the smallpox.
Yesterday, another case of similar nature
was brought to light. Early in the morn
ing. woman was discovered in house IN
Pacific street, who had fallen victim to the
dreadful epidemical disease. One of the
neighbors, having failed to notice the WON
an around as usual, suspected that there was
something wrong, so went over to the house
and learned what had happened. The inva-
lid, on being questioned stated that for over
thlrty.hours she had lain'o the sick bed and
that no one had been near, not even to give
her cooling drink to quench her burning
thirst; and further she said that when her
husband became acquainted.with the nature
OF the malady, he left, the house, and up to
that time, had not returned. The proper
authorities, on being informed of the facts
of the case, had the patient removed to a
suitable locality, where she will receive the
treatment her case requires. IS. f. Call.

lifetime if left to their own observations and
experience. Every man who owns, or ever
expects to own horse, should acquire this

Mr.. EDITOR i have had the pleasure OF
examining the first and second numbers of
the California Medical Gazette, published by
A. Roman & Co., San Francisco, which you
had the kindness to lay lefore me. / am
gratified to find it first class medical jour

SHASTA CouRIER.-Ths journal is disap-
pointed at the nomination of Harrison over
Westmoreland, and protests against it. 1t
must recollect that it is party and not an
independent paper, and therefore it must not
kick out of the traces. We have no fears that
the Union people of Shasta county will be
found wanting on the day of election. The
Courier will think better of it on reflection.
Harrison is popular throughout the district
Sacramento Union.
The Union is mistaken. The COURIER is
and has been Union paper from choice. 1t
is an Independent and not party paper.

JEWS ARE AMERIcANs.-The Democratic
party are trying to pIej, ce tboseI of tt
hebrew faith against the Republican party,
supposing they are not thinkers for them
selves. They are constantly subjected to the
charge that they do not consider themselves
permanent citizens of the country where they
reside, but that they are awaiting the coming
OF temporal Messiah, who will establish
the nation in Palestine. This charge was
denied by Rabbi Lilienthal at the recent
laying OF the cornerstone of house of wor.
ship for lsraelites at Cincinnati DR.. Lilien-
thai said: . America is our Palestine here
IS Zion and Jerusalem Washington and sign
ers of the glorious Declaration of Independ-
ence, universal human rights, liberty and hap
piness, are our Messiah and the time when
their doctrines will be recognized and carried
into effect all over the world is the time so
hopefully foretold by our great prophets.
When men will live together united in
brotherly love, peace, justice and mutual be-
nevolence, then the Messiah has come indeed,
aud the Spirit of the Lord will have been re-
vealed to all his creatures y

SoLUTIoN OF THE MORMON PROBLEM. The
Salt Lake Telegraph of July 3lst offers the
following unique proposition as solution of
the Mormon problem
If our fellow-citizens want to abolish poly
gamy, why dom they act like men and every
one marry a women and honor her and her
children, and leave no extra woman to be
taken care OF and made happy by other men ?
1t polygamy will ever be abolished. that's
the way to do it, and no honorable polygamist
would complain of or offer any obstacle to
such solution of the Mormon question:
But so long as some men will fail in their
obvious duties to the women, other men have
sufficient generosity and right feeling to do
all they can to honorably supply the defcien-
cy. Nor can they be righteously blamed for
so doing. On the contrary, honors ought to
be heaped upon them, and they. will.

FELL DowN.-On Monday afternoon the

and arranged the halliards, and the wonder
is that it did not fall then.

any other covering for his head but that
