The news from California (" not of and gen
rnl importance.
'J'he mines woreyieldinirlnrgely. Business
was not much improved, and there was but
little change in prices. Tho money maket is
tanier, and stocks quiet.
Frequent showers througbont the Stuta
huvu been of immenso benefit to the growing
i rons, and although the yield this year will
bo Lr below tho average, still they are by no
means ruined, as was feared thry would be
n few weeks ago. Fruits and vegetables

little frem the dronglil. uor
markets are supplied with an abundance of I
strawberries, raspberries nnd cherries, nil of
which may now be obtained ut reasonable I
prices. I
Still another indictment has boen round
against Dr. Hates, tho defaulting State Tree-
surer, now under arrest in Sacramento. It
1.4 nl'ieged that he has ombozzlud $41,000 of
tho Stato moneys, which is over and above
the misfling 8124,000. In default of bail in
the sum of 850,000, ho was ordered into cus
tody. He is said to bo very ill so much so,
as to be unable to leave his bud. An officer
constantly guards his room.

jute. Crabbe and his party, finding they
ould not sustain themselves, uncondi'iouully
aid down their arms. On the following day,
he entire party, with tho exception of their
.eunral, was taken out m squads and shot.
. more huiniliutiug and ignominious douth
waited Gonerul Crabbe. Jle was allowed to
rrite a Intte'to his wife, and hold an iuter
iew with one of his original company, who
ir.d left him bcfuro they crossed into Mexi
an territory,- ufter which he was led out to
xecuti'in. "lie was tied to a post in front of
he building he hod occupied, his fuco to the
est nnd his back to his executioners. A
.nmire I bails were thou shot into his body,
fter which ho was decapitated and his bend
xhibited in a conspicuous place for the mul
;tude to gaze upon. Among tho killed are
number of the most distinguished political
sroonugos who have ever resided iu this

Soma days after tho massacre, a detach
lent. of twenty-live Mexicans, from San Juan
roasud the lino, and on American soil seized
jur of (Jrabliu's party, who wero sirk in bed

umiously. W'o learn, however, that brutal murders
avo been committed within thirty miles of
all Lake City, which commit the startling
.'velopements made by Drummond in his
tier of declination of the judgeship. The
irties had a difliculty with the Mormon ou

A man named J. Gallagher was living here
t somu two months, boarding ut ono of the
it'iiout taverns winch still luteal our levee.
.o is represented to be a hard-working
cic-ablu man. Some time ago he sent fur
s wife, whom ho left in your city, and it
ipeurs that on her trip down she mado the
MA!iit:i!ice of the watchman of the steam-
, und consented to run away with him to
t. Louis, when ho should get ready to luko
tr. Yesterday morning Gallagher heard
' tli i 3 and at first could not believe it, as he
id never suspected the fidelity of his wife,
e was soon convinced of tbo truth, however,
id immediately applied to Judge Cochrum,
r advice.
The J udgo told him he had butter take his
old. and lot tho unworthy womou go, with
it making a fuss about it. This, Gallagher
included to do. II is wife heard of it and
ie called a man named Enoch McTherson,
ho is from Covington, Kentucky, nnd wl.o
ivimr a rafl of lumber beside llie Heating
.irding house had made the acquaintance,
assist her in retaining the child.
linlliiL'her t ink away his baeiriiee. and re
rned last evening to get his child, lie had
eked the little one up, and wns leaving
ith it, when McTherson said, "U d u n
iu. lot that child bo or Til cut you ell to
:..-ces." Gallagher paid no attention to him,
id was still moving off, when McTherson
lunged a knife into him, but a abort distance
Hive his heart. Mcl hersoo having coi
litted this bloody deed, ran. Gallagher
,i!led out a revolver and fired, lie shot
le.l'lierson three times, once iu the arm and
vice in tho back. McTherson, findiug it
i possible to escape, wheeled, and approach
ir ll.illjuher. cave him a blow which knock
1 him in the river. Gallagher swam to the
ft. a distanco of twonty feet, come out, and
ith parties drawing thoir knives, went at
ieh other. Ther fought full teu minutes,
eernling each other dreadfully. A number
' bystanders looked on, and were so terrified
ii. nnim' dare interfere. Among the ob-
over was Mis. Gallacbcr, who looked
ioIIv upon the whole transaction without
iucing the least emotion. The bloody cou
Gallagher succeeded

Uhout even uttorinff a srroan.
. Gallagher was taken into custody. lie Is
it and hacked dreadfully, and this looming
.a recovery is considered doubtful Tho
oroner held an iuquest last night, over the
3iiy of McTherson, und the jury returned a
erdicl implicating Gallagher iu the charge
f murder. This proceeding is said to have
een a complete burlesque, tlallughor has
Dnsconontlv been removed to the Jail. As

A FANATICAL WOMAN. ,
M rs. M cLean, In regard to the shooting
of the Mormon Kldor Trait lias brought
to light circumstances which famish am
ple evidence if any were needed, of the
rightful consequences of this modern fa
naticism. Our leaders have already pursued
the thrilling narrative of the seduction of
Mrs. II. II. McLean, by the preacher Trait,
and fie subsequent revenge which the Injure J
husbar.d executed, when the gnilty couple en
deavored to carry his children away to the
land of iniquity. Mrs. McLonn, who now
signs her maiden name, McComb, instead of
that of her husband she deserted, lias seen Gt
to publish a reply to the story whirh has been
so generally circulated. This remarkable
episilo we find in an Arkansas payer, aod in
sert in another portion ot the Journal of to
day. The most that can be said of this un
happy woman, after giving her a full hearing,
is ''more sinned against than sinning." She
appears to have boen completely blinded by
in ott degrading fanaticism, and to have
been one of the most compliant of the victims
the artful Trull brought to tho Mormon fold.
She accuses her husband, McLean, of having
oen uor Dniuy. ) 01 Dcing a dissipated brute,
with whom most of her relatives were not
npsn good terms. Hut she admits the at
tempt to carry her children away to the
Great Halt Lake, which, she must have knovn
if she could clearly understand anything, no
father not a Mormon, could allow,
The love
she profosos. for the slaughtered "Saint,"
amounts to adoration. Mie savs she washed
his feet, und wiped them with her hair, after
the example or Mary washing end wiping
the feet of Jesus. Sho toiled along the road
on foot, while Tratt rode by her side. In
In brief, the Elder seems to have bad tho un
fortunate woman more completely in subjec
tion to his will tnan irslie hud boen Ins slave.
Yet Mrs. McLean was this scoundrel's niulh
wife 1
And this is the kind of havoc that Mor-
nionLsm is muking, even in the midst of some
or our Atluntic communities. The are or
ganizations ol there Lattor luy Saints in
most of our principal cities, and leaders ore
laboring quielly bnt surely in their villninons
work of breaking up peaceful families, tearing
mothers from thoir children, and wives from
husbands who have hitherto doted upon them
l'.ven women wna nave been tlin ornament or
their peculiar sphere of society are lured from
tho path of duty and virtue, and induced to
iiinrnev U'ith thn IniABinnnn'wc nf nvil fur atrav
l0 Utah, wni.rPi if their eyes are opened, they
ure compelled to reuiuin in dreadful captivity.
Hut llie delusion is not made to operate
merely upon this continent. Almost every
week, a vessel lands upon our shores numer
ous bands i f of converted Mormons from Eu
ropean countries, where among the ignorant
peusnntry, the minsionaries of Brightim Young
lind an ampin lield for diffusing their poison.
How many of the womeu who accompany
theso expeditions huvo been induced to leave
a husbuud und children to follow the saints,
we cannot precise detormine, but aro quite
certain, from facts that huvo been published
to the world, that the proportion is not very
small.
It is not strango that under such a tnrriblo
provocation, the injured husband and father
should seek to administer a summary punish
ment upon the violutors of hid peace. In
deed, it is rather a matter for wonder, that
wo hear of no mere Tiatl's being hunted and
shot down like dogs. And, though mussacre
has no advocate in us, can wo condemn the
man, who, like McLean, performs what tho
law prolesses itself insiiilicteni to accomplish!
Better that a thousand surh knaves as Young
Tratt and Kimball, should be slaughtered.
I nan that una awlul fanaticism should be suf
fered to porsue its invasions of our domelic
happiness. No jury could be found in this
country to convict a McLean for such a deed;
fur juries seem to supply the equity that is
o'toii wanting in rigid admiuistratioii of the
law. i be unrorttnate woman to whose epis
tle wo have alluded, may rave, but popular
sympathy, and something more, will tie with
her nurbaml.
A 1'kwitciikp M iksissippi Girl. We find
in the Gronudu Uepublicun the following, sin
gular superstitious nnrativo :
e are credingly luronneu that there is
now in this county a girl ten years old, who is
yera singularly Billeted. It uppeurs that the
labors under the impression that elio is be-
witched, tier case is certainly a remarkable
one. bho wears a piece ol gold around ner
neck, and if the gold is not wutched, tho string
will twitst to stillocntion. bliu thinks if the
gold was removed sho would dio instantly;
on one nccusion it was removed while she
was asleep, und immediately there - wero
signs of strangulation. Another remarkable
teuture connected witu ner case is this ; cut
olTa piece, of hur hair and throw it into the

i-OKitiesB nr Bvreuiiiiuif. Jier nair iiua ueeu
burnt half a mile distant, and at tho very iu-
stanl, of buruig she manifested the same sign
of pair. Another strange feature in this case
is, if the picture of the individual whom she
believes to be the cause of her sufferings, is
drawn upon paper, and shot ut with leud, it
makes no impression upon her, but pre
sent a gun Jluuded with silver, and she is
ill row n into eposnis firo and is culm ogaiu.
Sxxtk Akxa slilf indulges the pleasing de
Insion that he will bo called again to the head
of affairs in Mexico, after having been driven
out so often. He is it hopeful tyrant and ap-
pareutlybuilds big trust upon what other
men would regard as damning proofs of in
capacity and inoligiblity repeated defeats
nnd a thorough, popular dutestutioo of bis
acts. He bus recently'i.-sued an address to
the Mexican people denouncing tho present
government ol Linnonlort, the new (Joiistilu.
tion, tho laws allict nz the property and
privileges of the clergy, &c, and announcing
that there must be another saneuinury revo
lution, even though half of the territory of
the republic t bould nave to be sold to supply
the sinews of war. Tho people of Mex;co
appear to bo of a ditfort ut opinion. They
are now in the midst of a popular revolution,
Mica as llie lonsiuuliuu provides lor by
means or the uallut-box, und so lur they
manifest a confiding trust in the ability of
their intell gout President, Comoufort wl o
has received a mail rity i f the votes if the

TWEKTY GOOD REASONS WHY
KETCIIUM'S Combined Itcapor and
Mower
I'or I R."7 is the most complete machine in use,
and the one best adapted to the wants of the
Farmer
First. Being wholly nindo of Iuon it is more
durable than any other.
Second. It h so simple that any person can
readily manage it.
3 bird. It 1.4 so strongly and well built, that
it cannot easily get out of repuir.
Fourth. It is neat nnd compact, occupying
less space than tiny oilier.
Fifth. The frame is so cosily balanced that
ihere is no weight on tho horses' necks.
Sixth. 1 here is little or no sitlu draft.
Seventh. It will cut heavy and light grass
equally well.
l.iglith. It cuts wet grass as well as urv.
Ninth. The new cutler bar wheel lessens tho
dr.ill nt least one fourth in mowing.
Tenth. Imrse will work it with case
in any kind of praxs or grain.
Eleventh. It is the only machine with the
t utti r bur directly opposite the slniftof tho driving
wheel.
Twelfth. The open cutting bludo elTectutilly
prevents clogging ill any kind of grass.
1 hirt.-cnlli. It is changed in a Its minutes
fn in a mow er t i a Helper.
Fourteenth. It is the only machin with a
reir and tide delivery for (jrnin.
I litfinth. It I ir.e only machine which gives
the linker control of the grain, both bcl'ute and
after it leaches the platform.
Sixteenth. The ailjtistuhlo si ring seat, and
new rcsipcr frhoo are cupilal iinp'OveuientH.
Seventeenth, r. t ven eura ol sex-cre practical
trial with more than l-.UOO machines have provci
its iVchlcd aupeiiuritv. Like xxnie it improve
with ago.
Knrhtecnth. All tho improvements for 1857
huve bten practically and thoroughly tested.
Nineteenth, l.vcry part ol the machine is
made bv master workmen and in the most sub
stantial manner.
Twentieth. Ketchnin's Reaper and Mower
is warranted to cut grass and grain us well as it
can be done with a scvlhe or cradle.
Iu a word it is just the machine which a farmer
can bov without anv rii-k, becaure ample eipe
r icn ce baa proven that it is reliable in all its parts
FAK.MLIliS, send in your orders early, a the
sales for the season have thus lur been more than
doub'.o that of last year.
