Yesterday afternoon the through train from the east had on board Pere Hya- cinthe and his family, consisting of his wife and bright eyed, sprighily boy of nme years. The reve -end gentleman made himself familiar with everything on the depot platform, and through the curiosity of himself, wife and child, made himself an object of interest to the bystanders, even before they ascer- tained that he was a celebrity known throughout the world. who had sepa- rated from the prescribed doctrines of Catholicism, and began a reform move ment, he primary doctrine being Co take wife. This lady, who IS American born. Is highly cultivated and con versed with the reporter III English, while her husband was only able to speak m French, Italian or Spanish. With the latter language, however, he was not thoroughly familiar. In conver- sation with Pere Hyacinthe, a CITIzES reporter found that his desuEation was ] California, where he would remain few months and then return to France. lie was highly pleased with the winter | climate of ArzOna, and said that if cer- ] tain engagements Tn California could be postponed be would have gladly so- | jnurned here for a short time. His visit | to the coast is mainly one of pleasure although there are certain religious interests that require his attention | there
 Pere Hyacinthe has face somewhat similar to that of Henry Ward Beecher | He is, however. a little shorter m stature. Dressed in sombre clerical gar ments, cut according to the fashion oi | the order, wearing an ordinary soft felt ] hat, and smoothly shaven, no one could mistake his profession. His wife is a tall. intellectual looking woman, and has n sweet voice. Though not handsome | her presence Is commanding, and ID any as-emblage she would be distinguished l She was attirred m black, and during hel appearance on the depot platform sh, | wore no hat Her black hair was fast ened in a roll at the back by large comb, and from this fell long crap' vail.

Speaking of the murder of George Phelps by nightvat,hman Shadriek, the Phenix Gazette says:
 This is the first violent crime that has been enacted in Phenlx for several years past, aud is all the more reprehenslble through the fact that 1t was committed by a man, who as an officer, had sworn to mainNln and conserve the peace The victim George Phelps had been 8 resident of this Territory for five or sl1 wears. most of winch time he has been driving stage. and was known as a ouiet and inUflensive man, faithful to hls duties. courteous in his treatment to all and universally respected. But little is known of Shadrick here. For about three rnnntbs he has been acting as pightwatchman. and while he had tht reputation of being fearless, he was also known to have c. most violent temper Of the woman, Mrs. Davis, who Is the principal cause of this blot upon Phenlx | fair fame, the less said the better.
