The California Hubert.—The San Francisco Trve Califomian, in speaking of the murder recently comniit'ed in Washington by Herbert, the member ol Congress denounces him as a 'uoled blackleg.' and says that this is not the first act of the kind in which be was a bloody participant.

They were all armud with double-barrelled shot-guns and revolver* After reaching the house it was agreed that Herbert and John Waters should rush in and seize Cooke, and prevent him from using his arms, as he was noted for being a brave man, and a most desperatn one.
