The peace commissioners have met with no
success in their mission, as the Indians say

upon the war-path, although no overt acts
have as yet been committed.

PIPIFAX.

This remarkable curative herbal
preparation is entirely unlike and greatly
superior to any other recuperant ever dis
covered.
1t strengthens the living vital nervauric
principle, and gives energy to the muscles,
nerves, flaments, membranes, and all tissues
of the internal organs.
PIPIFAX-Keeps the skin in a supple
condition; the cuticle plant; the pores open;
and brings the blood to the surface; thereby
enabling the system to counterfeit these bane-
full atmospheric influences.
PIPIFAX-Passes through the blood, ear
rles off by Precipitation and other excretions
the efIete and injurious materials Of the body.
1t is soothing, Alternative and decorative. Used
methodically and nationally, aided by suta-
BILE diet, it produces most important changes
in the system, contributing I, the reconstruc-
ton OF tissues, and removes vitiated matter
which has become not only useless but inju-
rious. No other article has ever been intro
duced which combines in such an extraordi-
nary degree the principles of an efficient anti
bilious agent and tonic. Try 1t and be con.

Fatal Shooting.
From lie Tulare Times of May Both.


A shooting affray between two
men occurred at Porterville last Mon
day, which terminated in one of the
parties being fatally wounded. The
circumstances are as follows. The
parties, who are by name Tom Muir
ply and w. Brannan, better known
as Bill Brannan, had some difficulty
at White River several months ago
at which time Brannan chased MUIR
ply out of town. At their recent
meeting in Porterville the old diff
Guilty was renewed. We were present
at the examination and acquittal of
Murphy, and the particulars of the
affray, as given by witnesses, are as
follows:
Murphy and DR.. Henrihan were
engaged in talking, when Brannan
walked up and spoke to the doctor
and to Murphy, and told the latter
that he had intended to whip him for
some time, and he presumed that that
time was as good as any, so saying, he
walked up to Murphy and slapped
him in the face. Murphy then stepped
back into the street. Both men then
drew their pistols (derringers) and
fired, Murphy shooting first, the ball
taking effect in Brannan's body, be-
tween the eighth and ninth ribs on
the left side, and taking downward
course. Brannan's shot missed Muir
ply. The shooting occurred in front
of the hotel. Brannan was conveyed
to comfortable room, and medical
aid was procured, but the wound was
too severe to be remedied. He lin
gered in, suffering till Wednesday
evening, when he died about nine
O'clock. The unfortunate man leaves
a wife and several children; but he
had been separated from them several
months, since which time he is said
to have lived reckless life.

of the season. A lady five feet ten or

the presence of a medium, we thought
we would invest three dollars to find

slightly startled even for newspaper

dead friends called out and descrip-

combed a week ago stood up and has

power in enhancing beautiful young
lady whom she called Agnes and then
we were told much more than we
wanted to know. In fact, we had to
swallow so many real truths, and the
dose being SO unusual, we have been
quite ill ever since. EAquiring what
might be the subject the lady intend
ed to lecture on, and leading her to
think we were ardent enquirers into

Editing the London Times.

The consultation is over, says letter
writer describing how tho london
Times is edited. Anew short notes has
been taken OF its results, and a sort Of
programme been made for every leader.
Documents, letters from correspond.
ents, and other papersare added 10 each
programme, which is put into an envel.
ope, and sent by, messenger to o GER
tain leading article writer, who, o few
hours Afterwards, sends in his article
ready written. These leading article
writers Of the Times arc altogether in
an exceptional position. AT the Ger
man newspapers, Underwriting is gem
orally done by the editor; now ut the
Iimcs, the principle is generally acted
upon, that che editor should rather edit
the paper, than write II. The arrange
ment is thoroughly reasonablein theory,
as well as in practice. Every one Is
nnturallyparhalto his own productions.
We would quarrel with an editor II he
prefers his own article 10 other essays,
when he has the selection among yari-
Gus papers on the samesubiect. 10 save
the editors from this temptation, and TO
give them full leisure TO edit attentive
" and impartially, they have been most
II relieved from writing. There are,
however, exceptions to this salutary
rule. .t
The Heading article writer's have the
programme OF their articles sent to
their respective domiciles. None but
the editors know who these gentlemen
are, and what their position in life is.
They never, except on extraordinary oc-
casions, come TO the Times office. They
have pledged THEFT words TO lay no
claim to the authorship Of their own
articles, or 10 reveal their connection
with the Times office. They have re-
nounced all hopes Of literary fame I;
whatever credit is due to their produc.
tions belongs to the Times, which mo-
nopolizes all the honor and bears all the
responsibility. Such m author has
nothing but his pay /; he has sold his
work to the journal, and with IL he has
sold the right to change it, to alter ex-
pressions, TO remodel parts Of II, or 10
condemn the article altogether. The
article isa piece d merchandise with
which the purchaser may do what
heilikes. II the writer ceases 10 agree
with the tendencies Of the Times, he Is
always at liberty TO break off the CON
nection but so long as that connection
continues he is compelled 10 submit
tile form Of his articles To the critical
verdict Of the editors. "
