Thes San Diego Union says: "a
thousand diamond-flashes athwart q
blood-red sky, repeated constantly;
great lines of fire, darting from east

Mr.. A. J. Davidson informs us that
the best report from sales of honey in
San Francisco, received yesterday,
was twelve cents per pound for eX-
tracted-sale made by Messrs. Drake
& Emerson. The fact that great
many small lots have been sent into
the market for immediate sale, to a
great many different traders, has ma
terially injured the market. If a
thorough combination could have
been made in the Spring, among the
producers three cents per pound more
could have been realized readily.

A gentleman from Anaheim called
at the office of La Crontcd
yesterday and gave a report
of the late shooting affair at
that place, which is quite different
from that heretofore given. The in
formant stated that he saw the shoot
ing and that in his opinion it was en-
tirely uncalled for. During the day
upon which the shooting occurred,

dispose of his pistol, and parties who
examined it attest to the fact it was
not loaded. Moreno did not discharge
it when Consta BILE Davis shot him.
After receiving the two severe wounds,
Moreno was taken to an out-of-the-
way place, and left without medical
treatment or any care whatever, his
own c0untrymen fearing to minister
to his wants on account Of the excite
ment which existed among the peo-
Pile. On Tuesday, a Greek, whose
