Charge or Murder —Our rtad en wfll recolli ct
t <at we announced, wow month* ago. the death of
Wm Newton, In Pittsylvania county, and that cir
cumstance* tended to the belief that he was poison,
ed A woman named Elisabeth Gross was strongly
suspected of having had a part io the murder, and
she suddenly left the county In Jauuaty last. A
reward was offered by the Governor for her ap
prehension, but without avail. We learn from the
Danville Register that she voluntarily returned to
the county last week, for the purpose as she stated,
of standing her trial for the alleged offence, of
which she said she heard in the West, whither sh
had gone. She was very soon arrested, and cn
Tuesday last, had ber examination before a special
t-rm of the county court, and was sent on for fur
ther trial at the circuit court in October.
The Danville Republican says :
It will be remembered she ran off with Pritcbetr
|her accomplice] soon after the death of Newton,
mtd the newspapers have recently reported the
d<*atb ol Pritcbett, at Uoion in Monro«. She came
up on the Richmond Stage last week, and passed
under the name of Ward, a* she says to prevent hrr
arrest on the route.

Nothing of importance had occurred on the Isth
mus since the sailing of the last steamer.
The tchooner Bermuda, and British steamer
Magdalene, were In port when the Star of the West
•ailed from San Juan.
IMPORTANT FROM CHIN*.
About «n hour previou* to the sailing of the Cor
te* from San Francisco, the Enelish clipper ship
North Fleet arrived at San Francisco from Chins in
a passage of 44 day*, bringing intelligence ot the
surrounding of Canton by the rebels, and stating
that the foreign residents had all left the city.
CANTON SURRENDERED TO THE REBELS.
The rebels are represented to have attacked Can
ton with irresistible bravery.csusing a psnic among
the inhabitants, and It wss *ocn surrendered with
out mucb fighting.
ANNEXATION OF THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.
A treaty has been concluded between the Ameri
can Commissioner and the Government of tbe
Sandwich Islands for the annexation of the Islands
to the United States Tbe treaty was dispatched by
mail for San Francisco on the 16th. All the mem
ber* of the King's Council are in favor of annexa
tion except two. The King is the most active pro
moter of the treaty. Thedetall* of the treaty have
not trauspired.
Eight English and French vessels of war had ar
rived at Honolulu. Tne object of their visit is un
known.
CALIFORNIA INTELLIGENCE.
Our San Erancisco correspondent state* that the
markets continued depressed, and most of the sta
ples were declining. The stocks of merchandise
were kept full by constant arrivals, and the demand
from the country whs slight. The spirit of specu
lation was not active.
Lieut. Beckwith, ofthe overland surveyineparty,
has arrived at Sacramento. He examined fire pas
ses north of Noble's pass, and pronounce all im
practicable for a railroad except Noble'* and one
next north.
All hopes of an arrangement between the wing*
of the democratic party of California has been
abandoned.
There i* little doubt that the whig* will carry the
State, though it Is thought that the Know Nothings
hold the balance of power. They have organized in
fell the chief towns.
The town of Kidwell has been destroyed by fire.
A number of murder* had taken place throughout
the State. An American named Reed had been
killed.
In the city of San Francisco, building operations
are being carried on to an extent whicb is quite ex
traordinary. Wages per day are as follows: House
carpenters, 5 a $9: joiners, C a $8; stone masons,
$7; bricklayers, $8; plasterers, $7; blacksmiths,
$tr. turners, 3 a $5; brass founders, §.">; wheel
wrights, $5; carriage makers, $(>; and printers $50
per week, but for one man employed there are two
or three looking for work; and a good, fust work
' man will obtaiu a situation at $10 per day, when a
poor hand would not get a place at $2.
A band of robber*, a portion ol the notorious Jo
aquin's followers, have gone to Marysville for the
purpose of marauding, robbing, and perpetrating
other outrages.
Mining operations arc as usual said to be highly
prosperous. Great discoveries of gold were reported
to have been made at Santa Barbara. However,
the "big strikes" only are mentioned in the papers,
while the disappointments, the hardships and the
misery which hundreds through the mines sutler
are never recorded.
The depression in the San Francisco money
market still continues, and the people are patiently
waiting till the shipping mania, which prevails so
extensively at the East, dies out.
Judge Karwell had taken bis seat on the bench.
Mis* Laura Keen had left quite unceremoniously
for Sidney, Australia.
Miss Catherine Hayes gave a concert at Honolulu,
and left for Australia.
INCREASE OF POPULATION.
During the first seven months of the present year
the total number of immigrants who arrived at San
Franciico was 23,020 —departure* 13,002, leaving a
net addition to our population of 19,958. Forty
three per cent, of the excess of arrivals over
departure* were Chinese, and we have the morti
fying fpectacle of 10,655 white inhabitants leaving
for the Atlantic States arid 9,247 Chinese arriving
to supply their place. Tbe Chinese question is again
beginning to be agitated throughout the State, and
in some places considerable opposition and dislike
are manifested to the Asiatics.
Several Chinese vessels have lately been seized
for carrying an excess ot passenger*. The Poto
mac was sold for $7,400, for an offence of this kind,
and three other vessels have been seized and will
be confiscated. In two, the scurvy broke out and
carried ott'larte number*. Some 80 or 90 died on
board the and after her arrival it was
deemed prudent to compel the passengers to
perferm quarantine at Goat Island; forty or
tihy more died on the Island. The Exchange
arrived in a somewhat similar condition. One
hundred of the passengers died on the voyage, and
nearly all the rest are sick with the scurvy, and are
dyinu oft very fast. The expense entailed on the
city by the I.ihertad amounted to nearly $12,000,
and the city council will take some measures for the
adoption of a police regulation to prevent this
excessive immigration of Asiatics.
OREGON.
Hon. John Davis has resigned the Governorship
of Oregon. He returned to New York in the
steamer.

Tartar Emetic was applied to my side ; also another
plaster to my back, with the use of other remedies
taken inwardly. 1 can truly say it relieved my paina
wonderfully. Aa a atrengtheniug plaater, tor the
