a CELEBRATED CASE.

Denial of the Rumored Transfer of the
Sharon Case to Washington.
lCoppIgf, 1855, by ae aloy,ia associated Pyess.J
WASHINGTON, March 22d.-Fraucis G.
Newlands left Washington this afternoon
for New York, whence it is understood he
Will sail Tor Europe to bring back to this
country his children that he left there last
summer.
Last night Mr.. Newlands had an inter
view with Senator Stewart his counsel in
the Hlll-Sharon case. This interview gave
rise TO report that the object of Newland's
visit here was to consult counsel as to the
best means OF reopening the famous suit of
Sarah A. Hill against the Sharon estate.
Senator Stewart says there is no doubt that
Sharons heirs will oppose to the last ex-
tremity any recognition of Mrs. Hill-Terrv's
claim to be the legal wife of Sharon, but he
says that Newland's visit to Washington
was simply with references to the manage
ment OF property in this city belonging to
the Sharon estate. That there will be a
bitter controversy in the United States Cir
cult Court over Mrs. Terry's claim to a
share in the estate, as Sharon's legal wife.
he does not denv. but that the case will be
transferred to Washington he saws is alb
surd.
There IS a rumor afioat, however, that
some OF the owners of property in this city
bought from. Senator Sharon will bring
suit in the United States Court against Mrs.
Terry TO quiet title to their holdings. 1t is
assumed-whether rightly or not-that the
answer 10 such suit would be the produc-
ton Of Judge Terrys part of the contract
OF marriage between Sarah Althea and
Sharon. This contract the United States
Circuit Court declared fraudulent, but
could not say that there was in law no
marriage.
Should such an action be brought, and
should Judge Terry simply offer the decis-
ion OF the Superior Court of San Francisco
affirming the validity of the marriage, rein
forced by the decision of the Supreme
Court OF the State, it is a question as to
what view OF the case the United States
tribunal here would take.

The Placerville Observer says: Curti.
Johnson, who purchased the Carpenter
place, this side of the wire bridge OF the
Mosquito road, one year ago, was in town
last Thursday. Mr.. johnson is practical
orchardist and nurseryman, aud is the
owner of fine ranch on the Riverside,
Sacramento county. For the propagation
of trees and shrubbery he prefers The foot
hills to the valley lands, and so infatuated
is he with the foothills of Ell Dorado
county that he is determined upon dispos-
ing OF his valley ranch, and making this
his permanent home. While in town he
received an invoice of fruit trees from
Bloomington, Illinois. and also procured a
large number from Beach & Co, which
be will set out at once. By this time next
year he expects to have 100 acres in or
chard, twenty acres of which will be nur-
sery. MIR Johnson intends to beautify his
place by surrounding it with hedge fence,
and for this purpose he received from be-
low several hundred sprigs of the Monterey
cypress. When we see such men settle
among us, and note the improvement in
one short year, we cannot help meditating
what wonderful change must take place
in the next twenty years.

tary Affairs was organized to- day to begin

ton of unofficial lists in the rebellion rec
ords.
Cutcheon submitted memorandum of
the facts in the case, as revealed by the rec
ords. They relate entirely to the conduct
of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania Cavalry at
the battle of Murfreesboro.
1t is stated that in the appendix of Vol
ume 20, Series l. Part .. prepared by Col.
Lazelle, is a list of 453 members of this
cavalry organization who are represented
as having gone to the front and having
been engaged in the battle of Murfreesboro,
when the body of the same volume shows
list of but about 200 there engaged.
1t is stated that, while the list given in
the appendix purports to have formed a
part OF an official report to General Rose
Grams, IT is merely an article which ap-
peared in several Philadelphia newspapers.
The official reports in the body of the work
show total of GA names of members of
the regiment who took part in the battle
which do not appear in the appendix.
The committee decided to subpoena Col.

ton, General Grosvenor, the mover of the

pear before it and give their testimony.

A Tragic Affair in the Foothills of TuIare
County


copyright. 1855. by fie California associated Iress
VIsALIA, March Odd - This morning
Sheriff Parker left town to investigate the
killing OF man on Dry creek, in the foot
hills, thirty-five miles from Visalia. who
was supposed to be one of the prisoners
who escaped from Jail on Friday night
The facts, as learned, are as follows
Yesterday Gus. Anderson, John Fox and
one Dickinson were out hunting on Dry
creek, and observing some object crawling
along behind the rocks, thought it was a
California lion, and Anderson fired. What
was supposed to be another animal close
behind the object fired at was seen to move,
and Anderson fired again. The man then
held his hands up and cried: :" sur
render !"
Going to the place, they found boy,
who answers to the description of John
Arnold, and a man, who is thought to be
Frank Bolinger, another of the prisoners.
Bolinger was shot in the head and died in
few minutes.
Anderson knew nothing about the pris-
oners escaping, but the two men evidently
thought the hunters were after them.
Anderson came into town at once with the
information, and returned with the Sheriff.
