    Life in CaifierniL
A co rrgspondent of the Wheeling Gazette, wri
ung from .11citerey of the disorganization of some.
tv at that place, mentions the following facts. Some
,;( them have never been so fully given. ,
A day or two since, a notorious rAital, s u s pe cte d
o f several murders, and known to be guilty of re
, ated horse and cattle stealing's, was caught, and
and sentenced to be bung. all in a very allot t
..,ace of time, and without waiting for much proof.
a lawyer, called a meeting, which was
composed principally of disbanded volunteers, to
I 'event the execution of so unjust a sentence by
means or foul. In the course of the erening,
, ca b o dy said there were not men enough in Mon
ter to hang the man. While they were gassing
t,:id.tussing about it, a file of soldiers took the pris
oncr from the prison to the guard house in the tort,
ant day Captain Burton went down with
.ome twelve or fifteen men as a guard. Some six
rowdies, it is said, had armeij themselves with
tom i vers. &c., to rescue the criminal, but on seeing
:tat baiOtit.l4, they dispersed. The maa was hung,
„h et , as they always bungle the matter bete,
the
~n e broke. and according to the custom of the
o on r , (the ililftalde being a Californian,) he was
tent kirk to Rtisbit until it could be decided wheth
er to kii,h the Business or not..
tome three months ago, a horrid murder was
committed about one hundred and twenty miles
stynth ot this. A month previons, - several men had
,i es oned from the U. S. ship Warren, at night, in
a t,. ;;t. They were fired upon, and one man se
ii,telv wounded.. The rest escaped.
Three of them. with a disbanded volunteer and
nmchrirry d o ,.(the last two-had been concerned in
.eme murder in the gold mines.) went to the house
of an Ettgli-liman named Read. at the Mission of
San Miguel. and rourderel the whole family, iii
ek,htig babies, servants and a midwife whoke ser

These executions have had a good effect.

On the 7th ult., after a short and severe illness,
Puss MANIA, daughter of Chimney Frisbie.Esq.
Aid wilt. of Elisha B. Harvey, Esq, of i lkr
The deceased: was born in Orwell, Bradfcird Co.
Pa., holy. 16th, 1821, and since the age of ten years
she has made a public profession which was unob
trusively and consistently exemplified in all the
walks and relations of domestic and social life.—
She was a member of the Presbyterian Church in
Orwell. A residence.of a little more than a year
in this Community, had served to impress all who
knew her with a high estimate of the worth of her
character, the amiableness of her temper. at d the
strict consistency of her piety. To many who
knew her but to lore, her death is a - deeply pain•
ful berervemeut, and it would be' utterly unscruta
ble were it not for faith in that wise and gracious
Providence, who smiles bgt to heal the more com
pletely, who chastens but to!;ender his people par
takers of his holiness, and who proinises to com
pensate with "a far more exceeding and -eternal
weight of glory" the light and momentary affliction.
Unwavering. faith in God, lent its power to bless and
irradiate the otherwise gloomy ehamber of sickness
and-death, while the triumphant confidence with
which :Ws. H. committed her Husband and child, a
son of some three years of age, to the divtne pro
tection, and her spirit into the, hands of her creator,
affords a solace to thebereaved and sorrowing.

In Rome of consumption, on the morning of the
17th Mr. Divin Warm's, aged 31 years.
Thus the sun of this man's earthly existence, in
the prime of manhood, after long and patient suf
fering, has set forever, leaving his family to mourn
a dutiful husband, son and brother and our village
a good citiien, an honest man, and the wide circle
of his 'friends an esteemed acquaintance.
To his widow, parents, brothers and sisters, sev
eral or all of whom reside in Rome, the blow if un
doubtedly painful and trying to their feelings. But
such we believe are the religions views of most of
them, that we trust they do not sorrow as those
without hope. They have a confidence in their
Heavenly Father, both for time and . eternity, and
however painful this parting may be to the feelings
of humanity, they will feel assured that their depart
ed friend is in the hands of Him who doeth all
things well, and who does not afflict willingly nor
grieve the children of men.
May they be abundantly sustained by the conso
lation of that gospel in which they joy and rejoice,
and which alone of all others can give in seasons
of trial like this. A large concourse of friends at
tended the funeral discourse in the Baptist church,
konday 18th inst. sermon by the pastor, Elder
Stone; text Psalms, chap. 46, God is our refuge, &c.
Much credi t is due the venerable Elder fur the
ords of consolfftion and instruction given the
, urners on the solemn occasion.
