OTTRAGES IN CALIPoRNIA.-We are going
through an entirely new set of horrors. Rail-
road collisions have been succeeded by curious
and mysterious deaths and wholesale murders.
The San Joaquin tragedy is the most extraOrdi-
nary that has ever occurred in a State laying
claim to any kind of civilzation-fve men
marched out and were shot to pieces without
any trace of the muTderers. There is only one
that the deed could only have been committed
ty strong party. The victims must have been
carried of by force to the rayine, where their
bodies were subsequently discovered. What
other horrors are still in store for us is beyond
human ken, but we presume that in accordance
with the usual law governing such matters, the
fun round will have to be eXperienced.-Sdn
