These strings vere probably old and rotten, and vhen Mr. Nichols fired, the strir.gs vcre broken, the stock was broken md tho barrel kicked backward itriking Mr. Nichols at tho root of ho nose fracturing the nasal process ind crushing in tho interpalpcbral : ?e r i? i i .. riu.~ juiiiuii ui mu iiunuu uuiif. J iiu vonnd penetrated to the depth of >ne and a half inches, hut fortunate* y below the brain. We suppose a jortion of tho tail piece remained on jun which made the wound so deep. :Ie extinguished the llame of the ;andle and came within one-half nch of extinguishing his own vital lame. A serious difficulty occurred at Red Bluff in the afternoon of the iame day in which one man lost his ife and another was seriously rounded and all done by the same nan. There was an arbitration at ,he Bluff between A. B. Shaw and Itobt. Boyd, the arbitrators deciding :or Boyd. Jtoidy Chestnut and Wm ?haw had been together on the sea-y jhore fishing, and while there the weather turned off cool and Chesnut lad no coat, so Shaw, having two, old him one, bu* Chesuut did not ay for it. After the arbitrators ecided against Shaw (how long aforward we are not informed) he and is brother demanded payment for he coat. Chesuut told them '.hat o could not pay then, but would s soon as he could* Chesuut was riving a wagon for Suggs & Co., ml went on to the lot to put up his fam. The Shaws followed him and bused him shamefully kicking, cufng, even pulled his coat o.f t^the nine he had bought of Win. Shaw) nd cut and slashed it with their Hives. All returned to the store of iuggs & Co., and after awhile, it Bonis, all started off together as if oing home. When a short distance roni the store the quarrel was reewed and all returned to the store. Mioy were standing near the rear teps, still rowitig, A. B. Shaw with drawn knife and Chesnut with at) pen razor* It seems that Chesnut lade some motion with hie razoi, then A. B. Sh?w ealleed out, kill he and Win. Shaw whipped out is pistol and fired, the llrst hall rout some mishap striking A.
