The Survivors of the Crabb Expedition.
We copy the following article from the San
Jose Tribune, It throws some additional light
upon the object of the expedition. The name
of the boy who was spared at Cavorca, it will
be seen, is Charles,Evans:
Maj. R.-C. Wood and Maj. Tozer, who, with
the exception of the boy Charles Evans—detained by the Mexicans in Bonors, are the only survivors of the ill-fated expedition under Gen.
Crabb, arrived in San Jose from Los Angeles
on Wednesday evening, and proceeded to San
Francisco yesterday. We had the pleasure of
a long conversation with these gentlemen, and
leaan from them that the last accounts received
concerning the fate of that expedition were
nearly correct.
When Gen. Crabb ascertained the probability
that he would not be received and supported by
the perty who had invited him into the country,
he sent Majors Wood and Tozer round through
the Gadsden Purchase, to collect reinforcements
and rejoin him at Cavorca, Instead of the large
arty they expected to muster, they succeeded
n getting together only twenty-six men, all
told. th this small party they proceeded to
Cavorca, and, being attacked on the road by a
body of four or five hundred Mexicans, fought
their way through to within half a mile of the
town, but being unable to effect a junction with
Crabb, made good their retreat, on foot, a distance of one hundred and twenty-five miles
through a desert, to the Gadsden Purchase,
witbout any refreshment save the fruit of the
cactus, constantly waylaid and harrassed by
the a to the number of five hundred; having lost in the whole trip but four men killed
and three wounded. They must have killed
between sixty and a hundred of the enemy.
They were atone time separated into small
squads. While in this condition, a A ress of
three were attacked by forty-eight Mexicans,
whom they eucceeded in keeping at bay, and
escaping at last into the Purchase.
Gen. Crabb, after leaving Senoita, was overtaken by Capt. Kinney and his party, (who had
remained behind with the sick and wounded,)
and entered Cayorea with 110 men. At the
time of their capture this number was reduced
to fifty-nine, who were all shot immediately,
and not kept until next day as heretofore reported. Gen. Crabb was allowed a respite of
two hours to write letters, which, being of
course in the hands of the Mexicans, will never
be forwarded, unless unexceptionable to them
in their tenor, The Mexicans were about two
thousand strong.
Gen. Crabb might have made a sally from
the town under cover of night, and many of
the men have effected their cscape; but he was
momentarily in expectation of being joined by
Mr. Wood, (whose rifles must have been heard
in the fort,) with a large reinforcement from
the Purchase. He was also looking daily for a
strong body of recruits who were expected from
San Francisco by water, and of whose arrival
in Sonora he had received rumors. Among the
officers who condemned the Americans to death,
and ordered them to execution, were more than
one whose signatures were attached to the letters inviting them to come to the country, and
promising them a peaceable and hospitable reception.
The character of this expedition, as is now
very generally conceded, differed widely and
honorably from an ordinary filibustering campaign; and this fact, coupled with the foul treachery and cowardly cruelty exhibited by the
Mexicans throughout the whole affair, has kindled in the American mind, a feeling of indignation towards the Jatter, and sympathy with
their victims, which requires but very little
fanning to manifest itself in a shape somewhat
more objectionable in its features, and in its
results boding no good to the Hernandez's and
Pesquieras of Sonora,
Axorurr new State.—It is proposed by the
opponents of the liquor law passed at the last
session of the New York Legislature, to call a
convention to take into consideration the pro.
priety of forming a new State out of the counties lying below the Highlands, and including
Manhattan Island, Long Island, and Staten Island. It is urged by the friends of this scheme,
that the advocates of prohibitory laws, most of
whom reside in the northern and western portions of the State, are so numerous, and bave
such power in the legislative bodies, that those
residing in the great cities are compelled to pay
obedience to laws not of their own creating,
and which they contend are much to their disadvantage. The only remedy for this state of
affairs, and one which is openly advocated by
several of the most able and influential papers
of the city of New York, is the formation of a
new State.
Speaking of the proposed new State, the New
York Atlas says, Manhattan Island is seventeen
miles long, and is capable of sustaining three
millions of people. Long Island is about one
hundred and twenty miles Jong, and its average
breadth is about ten miles, capable of cultivation and settlement, toan extent far greater
than has been supposed, with fertile soil enough
to sustain a population of several millions more,
and a climate which is mild and healthful. Staten Island is the most beautiful in the world, is
eighteen miles long and seven wide. The small
Islands in the Harbor and the East river furnish
unrivaled advantages for defense, and the maintenance of charitable and reformatory institutions. The population of these Islands estimated by the ratio of the increase furnished by the
ratio of 1855, may be set down at 1,200,000 inhabitants, and these own one-third of the whole
tonnage of the United States.
FasntonaB_e Dancine.—An Ohio Editor gives
his views of several dances which he witnessed
at the Inauguration Ball at Washington, thus;
“The want of variety in this Metropolitan
dancing, was, however, fully made up by the
fancy things, such as the waltz and polka,
These were absolutely barbarous. The old fashionable waltz, the morality of which even Byron
called in question, is here ignored as altogether
too cool and distant. The lady here lays her
head on the gentleman’s bosom, puts one hand
in his coat tail pocket, then resigns herself to
his embraces, and goes to sleep, all but her feet,
which, when not carried by him clear off the
floor, goes patting around on her toes. The
gentleman thus entwined throws his head buck,
and his cycs up, like a dying calf; his body bent
in the shape of a figure 4, he whirls, backs up,
swings around, swoons to all appearances, pushes
forward, and leaves the ring, to the delight of
all decent people.”
Native American Camets.—We have some
camels in Texas to whom the naturalization
laws would not apply—three having been born
under the stars and stripes. The Washington
Star says they are thriving, and five or six
more births are expected. From the reports of
the condition of the animals at present, and
through the eleven months that the first importation have been on the continent, we may regard all doubts as to their acclimation dissipated, and that so much of the experiment isa
fixed fact. The only remaining intermediate
points is the character of the stock that may
be produced. For this, time will be required,

‘Tue caPrive or Cavorca.—The boy who alone
was spared at the bloody massacre of Crabb and
his bold band of adventurers—who. is there in
all this land that is not interested in his fate?
There must be some, too, with whom that interest is intense. No one seems to know the poor
fellow’s name, or anything about him, save
that he is friendless and powerless in the hands
of a people who have, time and again committed
such deeds of coward cruelty as have scarcely
been paralleled elsewhere upon the face of the
earth. Is there not some old widowed
mother, somewhere in the world, whose withered and desolate heart is now aching in silence,
and her prayers ascending to that Heaven which
toall else than the eye of faith looks cold and
unanswering, for her absent boy—her brave but
mistaken boy whose wil venturons spirit
has so often led him away from the home which
he should feel and realize no smile but his could
illumine? Perhaps she knows of his capture—
knows the bloody-minded, cold and pitiless natures of the demi-civilized human brutes who
have his young life at their mercy—and in an
agony of suspense that none but a mother,s
heart can feel, awaits the next news that may
come from “the dark and bloody ground’ of
Mexico. Perhaps he has a sister whose cheek
is paling, day by day, with the anguish of her
young and innocent bosom—the overflowing
treasury of all generous affections and tender
maiden feelings! With that torturing liveliness
of imagination which belongs to her age and
sex, she sees her poor brother stretched at the
feet of his ruthless enemies, a pale and bloody
corse; and weeps, how bitterly, over the picture
she has too vividly conjured np from her fears.
It may be that he has no relatives; that he
was a poor and friendless boy buffetted by’ the
rude hand of fortune, from place to place and
drifted hy circumstances over which he had no
control inte the death-devoted circle in which
his capturers found him. If so, then should the
great heart of the American people be his
friend—his stary-bannered country be his mother;
not weak and desolate and weeping, but strong
to save or to revenge. There is no law of
nations or humanity that can justify that poor
boy’s deavh, and if a hair of his head is touched
by the savage brutes who hold him, there should
be a retribution swift and merciless,-—Sac. Bee.
Horsr Tarer Snot.—A letter to the San Jose
Tribune, dated Watsonville, June 3d, says:
On Monday morning, about 9 o'clock, two
Chilenos came riding up to the old homestead
of the Colorado ranch, about four miles from
town, occupied by a gentleman named Tarpy,
and after riding round the house, and viewing
everything ina suspicions manner, retired to
a deep guich a few yards distant, and there
alighted. An Indian vaquero of Mr. Tarpy,
who was milking at the time, seeing that all was
not right, ran to the house and informed Mrs,
T. of the fact. As the house had been attacked
and robbed by a similar gang some two months
ago, Mrs. T. being alarmed, sent the vaquero
for her husband, who was mowing at no great
distance. He came to the house, Joaded his
revolver, and arming his Indian with a rifle,
they proceeded on foot to the place where the
Chilenos lay concealed. When within about
twenty yards of them, one of the party jumped
up and fired at them both, The vaquero instantly returned the fire, putting a rifle ball
through his antagonist, who fellas if dead. At
the same moment Mr. Tarpy fired two or three
shots, and started in pursuit of the other, who
took to the thick cbapparal, and finally sueccveded in making his escape.
In the meantime, the vaquero had taken possession of tivo fine horses which the Chilenos
had, aud while he was thus occupied, the woundcd man escaped also. On Mr. Tarpy’s return,
they mounted the horses and galloped to town
for assistance. Returning with ten or twelve
men, they searched the chapparal. and
found the Chileno whom the Indian had shot,
lying dead in the bushes, within a few rods of
the place of combat. The other one could not
be found; he is well known, however, in the
valley, Late in the afternoon, two men of the
same valley came in and claimed the horses,
which had been stolen from them the night before.
Tue Grmsonvitte Homicipe.—The following
particulars in relation to the late homicide at
Gibsonville, are furnished to the Marysyille
Express :
A few days previous to Sunday, two men,
named Gibson and Murphy, had a difficulty
about some trifling matter, after which Murphy
threatened to whip Gibson, and on Sunday went
to town, accompanied by a brother, for the purpose, as was supposed, of executing said threat.
Gibson, who is an old, lame man, armed himself
with pistol and knife, and when attacked b
the brothers, shot one of them through the nec
and stabbed him through the heart, producing
instant death, and so wounded the other that
little hopes are entertained of his recovery.
Gibson was arrested, tried before the proper
officer, and acquitted, it being proven that he
acted in self defense. As soon as the result of
the trial was known, a large body of Murphy’s
countrymen from a neighboring mining locality
formed themselves into a mob and raised the
ery of “hang him!’ In the meantime, Gibson
had been advised by the citizens to leave town,
or conceal himself, till the angry passions of
the mob had subsided. He left, but was hotly
ursued by the crowd for several miles, but it
is supposed he eluded their vigilance, as they
all returned with clean hands. Gibson was formerly from Memphis, Tennessee.
Nep McGowan’s Triat.—The Napa Reporter
has the following article upon the subject:
“This famous trial closed at 12 o‘clock on
Monday night last. The prosecution scarcely
made out a case against the defendant, Indeed
there was notevidence enough against him to
hang a cat—and so thought the jury, for in just
10 minutes from the time of their leaving the
court room, they returneda verdict of not
guilty. There was nothing whatever even tending to show any complicity in the death of Mr.
King, or any connection, direct orindirect, with
Casey, in the transaction. And yet, had this
man, now triumphantly acquitted after an imrtial trial, fallen into the hands of the Vigiance Committee, he would have been hung toa
dead certainty. This case should teach the people of California the gross injustice, tyranny
and cruelty of which masses of men may become guilty, when acting under excitement.
A citizen, whom the laws of his country
now declare innocent, has been hunted for
months like a wild beast, driv@n from one hiding place to another—an exile even in his own
country—and exposed toall the perils and sufferings ofa life of outlawry. The law gives
him no redress. It merely declares that there
is no stain of blood on his hands. We are not
the endorsers of McGowan nor do we know
whether he is a good ora bad man—but this
we do know: that if extreme and long continued
suffering under 9 false accusation can entitle a
man to popular sympathy, Ned should receive
it. Communities should acknowledge and atone
for their errors, no less than individuals,

been arrested for drunkenness, and being ve
abusive and violent, was placed in a-dark cell.
He first tried to beat his brains out against the

Fatat Accipent.— The North Californian
learns from a Chinaman just down from Montgomery Bar, a short distance above Bidwell,
that on Saturday the 6th inst., as two men were
prospecting, one of them was killed under the
following circumstances. The man who was
killed was picking a pan of dirt, when he heedlessly inserted his pick behind a stone atthe

a dreadful accident occurred at the Bue
claim, on Feather river, about three miles above
Oroville. It appears that a man named Frederick Smith was in the act of putting the priming
to a blast for the purpose of dislodging some
very large rocks, when by some unaccountable
means the powder was ignited, causing a terrific explosion, and mangling the person of Mr.
Smith in a frightful manner. An express was
immediately sent to Oroville for a doctor, but
he died the next day.
Mrs. Wurtsey Inpicrep.—We learn from the
Mariposa Gazette that Mrs, Whitney has been
indicted by the grand jury for murder, in the
killing of the man Askins some wecks since.
It may be remembered that Askins was shot
and killed while in the act of entering Mrs.
Witney’s room through a window in the night,
and that she was twice or three times discharged
on preliminary examinations, once by the County Judge himself. On the finding of the grand
jury she is held to answer in the sum of $2,000.
