Quite a number of was the attack and murder that the paralyzed crowd made no effort to stop or arrest them. After finishing their victim, one of the murderers deliberately cut a belt and pistol from the body, and both slowly left the ground, The Sheriff, upon hearing of the affair went in pursuit of the assassins, but did not succeed in getting on their trail. A Chileno was killed at Todd’s Valley on the night of the 13th, while attempting to rob sluice boxes. The members of the company having a suspicion that their boxes were robbed, set one of their number to watch them. Ina short time i he discovered three persous at work with pans, &c , cleaning up the siuices. Not desisting from their rascality when warned off, the watchman fired, and one of the men dropped dead, The other two rushed upon the guard, but another shot wounding one of them, they took to their heels, and mad¢ their escape, which is regarded as the unforttinate part of the affair, From the Iowa Hill News, we learn that a fatal affray occurred at King’s Hill, on Tuesday, the 16th between a mulatto and a Spaniard. The difficulty commenced over a game of cards; . the Spaniard used his knife with trifling effect and the mulatto a shot gun, the charge from which took effect in the Spaniard’s breast and arm. He died immediately. No arrest has been made. Tux Burvev, Tracepy.--We announced last week in our telegraphic dispatch, that the jury in the case of Mrs. Cunningham, accused of the murder of Dr Burdell,. had found a verdict of not guilty. From the evidence before them no other verdict could have been found. The theory set up by Coroner Connery at the inquest, seemed to superficial observers to be sufficient ~ LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Suicipe.—A man named Ensign Church, who . and told him he had been bit by a dog, that he . Cayoteville. He bad evidently been drinking . considerably, and told Mr. Liddel he wanted . some landanum to pathim to sleep. Mr, Liddel told him there was no laudanum in the house, and Church left and said he would go and get some. About daylight, the next morning he . got back to the house, awaked Liddel up, and . told bim he had come there to dic. Liddel . knowing he had been drinking, took little no. tice of what he said, and he went in and Jaid . down. About noon Mr. Liddel noticed that he . was breathing very hard, and on going to him, . found in one of his pockets three empty vials . labelled “Jaudanum,”’ two of them ounce, and . the other a half ounce vial. Physicians were . immediately sent for, but they arrived too late . to do any thing for him, and he died in a short . time. It appears he had bought the vials of . laudanum at three different drug stores in towa, . and must have taken it after getting back to the house. He had seventeen dollars in his pocket, . which was appropriated towards his funeral expenses. Mr, Church was about thirty-two years old, . Ohio, where his relatives now reside. He was . a printer by trade, and formerly editor and . propritor of the Canfield Sentinel. Several . . Feraps of paper were found in the room, on . waich he bad been writing. The following is all that was legible: “Henry—God don’t lie. I told you if he did) I would be back before the sun went down. .

Quite a number of was the attack and murder that the paralyzed crowd made no effort to stop or arrest them. After finishing their victim, one of the murderers deliberately cut a belt and pistol from the body, and both slowly left the ground, The Sheriff, upon hearing of the affair went in pursuit of the assassins, but did not succeed in getting on their trail. A Chileno was killed at Todd’s Valley on the night of the 13th, while attempting to rob sluice boxes. The members of the company having a suspicion that their boxes were robbed, set one of their number to watch them. Ina short time i he discovered three persous at work with pans, &c , cleaning up the siuices. Not desisting from their rascality when warned off, the watchman fired, and one of the men dropped dead, The other two rushed upon the guard, but another shot wounding one of them, they took to their heels, and mad¢ their escape, which is regarded as the unforttinate part of the affair, From the Iowa Hill News, we learn that a fatal affray occurred at King’s Hill, on Tuesday, the 16th between a mulatto and a Spaniard. The difficulty commenced over a game of cards; . the Spaniard used his knife with trifling effect and the mulatto a shot gun, the charge from which took effect in the Spaniard’s breast and arm. He died immediately. No arrest has been made. Tux Burvev, Tracepy.--We announced last week in our telegraphic dispatch, that the jury in the case of Mrs. Cunningham, accused of the murder of Dr Burdell,. had found a verdict of not guilty. From the evidence before them no other verdict could have been found. The theory set up by Coroner Connery at the inquest, seemed to superficial observers to be sufficient ~ LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Suicipe.—A man named Ensign Church, who . and told him he had been bit by a dog, that he . Cayoteville. He bad evidently been drinking . considerably, and told Mr. Liddel he wanted . some landanum to pathim to sleep. Mr, Liddel told him there was no laudanum in the house, and Church left and said he would go and get some. About daylight, the next morning he . got back to the house, awaked Liddel up, and . told bim he had come there to dic. Liddel . knowing he had been drinking, took little no. tice of what he said, and he went in and Jaid . down. About noon Mr. Liddel noticed that he . was breathing very hard, and on going to him, . found in one of his pockets three empty vials . labelled “Jaudanum,”’ two of them ounce, and . the other a half ounce vial. Physicians were . immediately sent for, but they arrived too late . to do any thing for him, and he died in a short . time. It appears he had bought the vials of . laudanum at three different drug stores in towa, . and must have taken it after getting back to the house. He had seventeen dollars in his pocket, . which was appropriated towards his funeral expenses. Mr, Church was about thirty-two years old, . Ohio, where his relatives now reside. He was . a printer by trade, and formerly editor and . propritor of the Canfield Sentinel. Several . . Feraps of paper were found in the room, on . waich he bad been writing. The following is all that was legible: “Henry—God don’t lie. I told you if he did) I would be back before the sun went down. . For the last five years I have known the day of my decease; but iny God, I never thought it} would come this way. “I have not been down to see about that d—d . dog, for I knew when he bit me I was a goner. .
