The latest announcement con-
corning the movements of General
Sherman and party is that they
will arrive In this city on Thurs.
day morning, but the telegraph is
provokingly reticent regarding the
presence of General Hancock with
his brother officers. While to many
of us the absence Of General Han.
cook would be great cause of re.
gret, 1t is to be hoped that fitting
steps will be taken for the public
reception OF General Sherman.
We direct the attention of farm
ers and orcbardists to the adver-
tisement of the Bowler pump
which appears elsewhere. This
pump, patented Nov. Is, 1881, from
it's simplicity of cons truction and
great power, Is one of the most
useful inventions of the age, and
when its merits become generally
known it will, we have no doubt,
supersede those now in use. Mr.
G. Deleval, agent, corner Of Also
and Alameda streets, will take
great pleasure in exhibiting its
merits to epquirers.

Couch, who has been on trial in

Sentence has been set for Monday
next. 1t will be remembered by
readers OF the HERALD that Crab.
tree was shot by Couch in q dispute
over some timber land, during
which Couch claimed that Crab
tree struck Mrs. Ellis, mother of
Couch, knocking her down, hence
the shooting.

was 80 severely burned by the sx.
plosion of can of coal oil on
Tuesday, the 4th instant, died at
the residence OF A. w. Thaxter last
Saturday night from her injuries.
DR.. Gale, the attending ply sician,
informs US that the poer woman
suffered excruciaiing agony, about
One-third OF the upper portion OF
her body having been charred al
most to a cinder. Uoder such cir.
cumstances death, We should think,
must have been a relief not only to
the sufferer, but to those who
loved her, AZ well.
