From the Sydney Morning Herald.

From the Sydney Morning Herald
Our Noumea correspondent gives the
following particulars of the murder of II
men in New Caledonia -" The place thrills
with the news that in the beginning of this
week (November 21l II more were added
to the list of victims. Again has over
confidence in the black demons been the
snare. Three small coasters were engaged
to carry provisions and ammunition to the
military force under the command of Col.
Vending, operating against the rebels in
the North at Poya, ,Adie. &c. Among the
II men com nposing the three crews was a
man named Marianne. whose son was killed
in the massacre at M. Houdaille's. This
man, SO far as perfect acquaintance with
their language, manners and customs, was
native himself He had served for years
as interpreter on any required occasion
through an extensive district and among
many tribes He seemed, in spite of the
loss of his son,to have seorned the idea
that the blacks would do anything against
him. I5 is stated that he was warned not
to 60 on shore, and that he should keep q
strict watch. Both cautions seem to have
been neglected. The lamentable fact re-
mains to be told that the expected proyi-
sions not arriving, search was made, and at
the month Of the Poya river one pillaged
boat was found, as also were traces of a
sanguinary fight, evidenced by broken oars,
with natives haia adhering. Onthe borders
Of the river, hidden away in the scrub, were
found provisions, munitions and six native
baskets filed with freshly cooked human
flesh, from which the bones were extracted; !;
also the heads on poles. Two thousand
rounds of Chassepot rifle cartridges fell in
to the rebels hands, and these they en-
ployed against the boats of the war steamer
Lamothe Piquet, as they were searching
the river on the 10th. A great many shots
were fired by the Kanaks hiding in the
mangroyes which fringe the rivers in New
Caledonia The boats were struck by Ave
balls, but no one was injured. The sailors
could only reply by blind shots, as it were !;
for it is impossible for any but the bare
footed, agile savage to move through these
mangroye swamps, misstep among the
snakeIike roots Of which involves sinking
to the neck or deeper in mud.

IT IS the impression of persons late. ly from Sonora that the murderers of Adams and Finley will never be given up to the United States, but that on the contrary. they will be put through a trial at Guaymas, and, if not found guilty they will then be set free. It is, of course, just possible that they might be found guilty, upon common fame,' and be executed accordingly; because we do not believe the authorities of Sonora will connive at the escape of these men. The trouble is at Mexico RumOr says that the Mexican Govern mcnt demands of the United States, that in return for the surrender of the Dayidson's Canyon murderers, our Government shall agree to deliver to Mexico the persons whom il may here. after name. This is construed by our State Department, into an attempt to get possessson of some of our army officers who have been engaged in the Texas border movements against Mex ican bandits, including raids across the Rio Grande; and it cannot be al Iowed. If this is true comment is un- necessary.

WE are glad to be able to state thai our distrus: of the dispatch concern. ing "General Sherman" and wife which was published in Saturdays CIT HEN was well founded The General of the Army is neither dead nor sick, and it is believed that his good lady is in like healthful condition. The General Sherman whose wife died, and who was reported hopelessly ill, is Brevet Major Thomas W. Sherman, on the retired list of the Army, as we are informed. In the present unsettled condition of our little force of warriors, it would have been a calamity, indeed, if il had lost it's eminent head It was the little joke of some smart telegraph operator down east, to take in the innocent Pacific Coast editor.

By the recent heavy importations ol
 goods into Tucson, there is a very
 noticeable increase in the stocks of
 agricultural implements, and especial
 ly of the first and most essential to
 good farming of all, well made blows
 We are glad to see these improvements
 in facilities for doing the work of the
 country. It is well known that under
 a very shiflless system of farming the scattered fields of Arizona and Sonora
 have answered bountifully to the de
 mand for cereal and other crops, year in and year out, for generations; and now that population Is growing, and the number of men and animals to be sustained will soon be many times greater than ever, the land must be resorted to for far greater supplies. h. crease of acreage will have its effect but unless better methods are adopted in every valley, and the annual yield made greater by giving the soil more farmer-like treatment, the supply will run short, and prices will be cores pondingly high. This alone might not embarrass cur farmers, but there is beyond to be looked to. The iron way is approaching us from east and west, from regions where millions of bushels ot grain are pro duced every year iu excess of the con and whence, with railway transportation, full supplies can be sent here, at far below the present rates. Kansas would rejoice to furnish us all the wheat we could use at a cent and a half, delivered, with other grains in proportion; and California would meet her half way IL Is easy 10 see what effect Ihe arrival of these foreign products would have upon Arizona farming al the present stageI of its development We therefore wei come every appearance of improve nent in machinery and methods which may assist the Territory to hold its own in this important particular.

THERE IS a law now in force under which every person butchering cattle for public use is required to file a bond in 5000 with the county com mIssioners, conditioned that he will keep the hide and ears of every animal killed for the space of twenty days, for public inspection, and that he will keep a record of all cattle purchased by him, and of all brands and marks upon the same. A fine of from fifty to a hundred dollars is imposed for every day on which a butcher carries on business without having filed such a bond.
