bboutlBf Affair,
We lean) from pertons iu from the Tual
atin J'laiuf that A.J. Ma.ters, an old set
lief who livsd some 17 miles west of this,
was killed by Mr. MtM llen a pdgl.lorol
bis, on last Saturdsy. The saj !Uir took
rilae'e on the road between the bouses of
Masters and McMillen, and asida from cir
cumstantial evidenc we are dependent
atonu upon Mr. MtMillen fr a history of
of the transaction. Mr, RfcMillen stales
that while ho waseng'igod In cutting soma
tree which bad fallen across the P'.vl, Mas
ters rod up and iiineiintin fixed him
(MoMillrn) by the thrwal, saying 'Mc, I've
got Oil just v here I want you, and I'll cut
your been out." Jlo then ibrew Mi-Mill, n
down, tbukid him and b.-st him, iIku lay
in; bold of the sx struck bin) once or I ice
nbich McMilleo warded off as best bo
could. Iio alw attempted lo twist MeMil
leu's cratal so as lo strangle him. At ibis
lime Mc-Milltn says be made out lo get fmin
under bis assailant, nnd springing to bis
feet ran lo whero bis gun lay tome ei'ht or
lets steps distant, Musters following him in
hot basic Upon reaching his gun be
snatched it up and continuing his retreat
shot Masters in the facsni lit was running.
Mc-Millen then lo k his ax and gun and
went borne. From this bo went to the
hcuso of. 12. Uarton, bis fathi-r-iit law,
and informed iho peoplo wh' h.t-I assem
bled there at a meeting, of u hat bad occur-
red. Ho psruin arrived at llm scene of
conflict for two hours or more after Mas
ters we shot, ' Those wh') first reached tbe
ground found him still n'ive nnd able to g I
upon bis bands nnd knees, although his
eyes were both shot out. He expired in
the afternoon of tbe tamo day.
It it reported that ihe hone Mastort rode
was found on last Monday a miie or two
from tbe bloody spot, with saddle and bri
dle still on, both stained with blood, which
has caused sotnt to suspicion foul play, and
induce iho belief that Masters was shot
whilo on bis horse. Of ihe truth of this
rumor wo know nothing. A rigid investi
gation will elicit all tiie rvidenuo that can
possibly bo got at,

have been a studied clurt ou the (art of

SV Mr. Geneis, who has spent some
time on thu Grand Hondo Indian reserva

faction exjf ts among tlio Indians.
Wo sco lliat tiio M. b. OoiiK'rcnce at
its late session resolved that "they had con
fidence in i ho power of the gospel, if
preached nnd administered among them, to
arrot nil outbreaks in future," and lite
Conference "respectfully suggests tn the
Superintendent of Indian Afluir, if il
would not be expedient to make liberal ar
rnngemcnts for Christian and ministerial
bibor among tho Indians." Tbo S'ates
man speaks very contcmplnbly of the proj
ect ami underestimates the labors of "bio.
Parrish" who has long been an Indian
missionary, by saying that "niissonnry ia
bori have been a complsto nnd signal fail
ure, and wo never saw or heard of any Ira.
cos of their works in the shape of regenera
ted and civilized natives." If tho Super
intended of Indian Affairs would make the
' liberal arrangtmrul" to pay "bro. Pntrisli"
about $2000 salary per annum for his la
bors perhaps ho might do botlor. Rut as
tho Conference seems to speak of "Chris
tian and ministerial labor" as two difjerent
tilings, perhaps tlia Superintendent would
do well to improve upon the suggestion of.

Editor Argus: Intemperance like the

this vulley. In visiting almost any of our
towns tbo friends of virttio nra pained to
see the fulul glass held out as a bait to
those who we weak enough to drink, with
an invitation to drain it to its very
dregs. Thus ninny of our young men nro
drawn into tbo whirlpool down whoso aw
ful vortex so many have gone, and gone
forever. Notwithstanding it is as plain as
the noon day sun that the ntden! spirits we
consumo does no manner of good, but pro
duces the most mischievous and ruinous
consequences, yet strange to say, apparent
ly good meaning church members, nnd
even ministers of religion think that a pro.
hibitory law would bo infringing on our
"rights" I If such be "liberty" God grant
that I may never taste its sweets. The
samo law that punishes the man who
steals my horse, or even keeps n gambling
shop to tho detriment of the morals of so
ciety, permits a grog seller to niako n poor
miserable drunkard ol my son, nnd there
by injure me more than the loss of all my
properly would. Wonderful consistency!

"Buchanan and myself have for- several
