SENTENCED BY JUDGE RosBoRoUGH.-
Yreka Friday, Feb. 24th-Ghe People VS..
VIM. Williams. Williams Motion for
new trial over ruled, to which defendants
counsel except, and enter motion for ar
rest of Judgment on the verdict, on the
ground that it does not substantially con-
form to requirements of sections 237 and
238 of the criminal practice act of Califor-
MIA, in this: The indictment does not
contain statement of the acts constitu-
ting the offence, or the particular circum-
stances of the act charged. The motion
was overruled, and defendant duly excepts.
The defendant was then addressed by
the Court, as follows:
VIM. Williams-stand up. An indict-
ment was found against you, VIM. Will
liams, by the Grand Jury of Siskiyou
County, on the 18th day of May, 1870,
charging you with the crime of murder in
killing John Todhunter on or about the 9Th
day of May, 1870, at Cottonwood, in this
county. Upon your being arraigned on
said indictment you plead not guilty. Up
on this plea you was tried by jury Of
your countrymen, who rendered verdict
of guilty of murder in the first degree
against you. Have you any legal cause to
show why Judgment shorld not now be
pronounced against you?
No legal cause being shown, the Court
rendered the following judgment:
1t is ordered, adjudged and decreed BY
the Court, that you, VIM. Williams, suffer
the punishment of death, and that the
Sheriff of this county retain you in custody
until such time as shall be specified in a
wnrraut signed by the Judge Of this
Court, and attested by the Clerk, under
the seal Of this Court.
1t is further ordered, adjudged and de-
creed, that the Sheriff of this (Siskiyou)
county cause this judgment to be executed
at the time specified in said warrant, and
that the said punishment of death be in
aicted upon you by hanging you, Wm.
Williams, the defendant, by the neck, un-
til you be dead Such is the judgment Of
the Court Yreka Journal

NV Adventure at Niagara.

One day last spring l found myself
at the Cataract House, Niagara, be-
fore "the season" had fairly commenc-
ed, and searched the register in vain
for the name of any one / knew. So
l passed the day rather stupidity in
solitary wandering about the falls, and
it was considerably after dark when l
returned to the hotel.
After bath 1 entered the dining
room, where there was good fire, and
I was soon seated before substantial
meal. One young man beside myself
was discussing his supper farther down
on the opposite side of the table, and
two others were seated near the fire.
At last I broke the silence by adi
dressing some trivial remark to my
neighbor, and after little converse
ton l asked him if he would join me in
walk to the tower, where We could
obtain fine moonlight view of the
cataract. The moon would rise about
nine o'clock, and, full of the glamour
of the place, 1 could not rest out OF
sight of the falls. He assented, and
presently one of the inen BY the fire,
who had not previously spoken either
to us or his companion, remarked that
he should like to join us; that he had
been thinking of going but disliked to
venture alone. Glancing at my oppo-
site neighbor, and, seeing acquiescence
in his face, 1 replied, "the more the
merrier"
After supper we stepped on to the
verander to take observations of the
night, but, though long past the time
for the moon to rise, its face was OBJ
scured by heavy clouds. My COM
panions appeared to think the night
would be too dark for our expedition,
but I vigorously opposed giving it up,
urging that the moon would probably
desperse the clouds; which was, in
fact, the case in less than an hour la
ter, though scudding masses of vapor
occasionally made vivid contrast to
the brilliant light that was at times
shed over the landscape, giving weird
and ever-changing expression to the
face of Nature.
IL was late when we started on our
walk, and all three seemed disposed to
silence.
Sometimes the roar of the water
made it useless to attempt to be heard
and, for my part, 1 soon became sc
engrossed in thought that l had httle
inclination for conversation. To tel
the truth, my thoughts were hardly
agreeable. The situation was not &
pleasant one. 1t was eleven O'Clock
on a rather wild night, for the wine
had risen pretty high. Three men
total strangers to each other, startin,
out on a midnight expedition through
a lonely wood, was imprudent, if no
rash. I had considerable money
with me, and a valuable watch ant
chain. l began to blame the cnthu
siasm which made me choose unknown
