Judge Crittenden and Mrs. Fair—The Meeting on the Ferry Boat—The Fa tal Bullet — “ Papa, S/wak to Me; Oh, S}*alc to Me Once More. You will not Die, will you, Papa ?” San Francisco, November 4.— Judge A. P. Crittenden, ono of the ablest lawyers of this cil Y, was shot and killed last evening by Mrs. Laura Fair.— Judge Critteniien had crossed over to Oakland to meet bis wife and daugh ters, who had been East for several months, and was returning with them and his two sons to this city in the fer ry boat, El Captain, when the tragedy occurred. Mr. Crittenden was seated outside of the saloon on Iho upper deck, with bis back againt the wheel house, his wife nestled closely by his side. Close to them was their little son, and a few rfcct fnrthe back was seated Miss Crittemlen, a young lady of about eighteen. Toe older brother, Parker Cittonden, was on the lower deck looking after his mother’s bag gago. To the left., with her back to the saloon and facing Mies Crittenden, sat a woman alone bv herself, drosaed in a loose suit, of bfack, with a long capo hung from her shoulders, under which she carefully concealed her hands. There wns, besides, a thick veil over her face, a largo muffle which completely concealed her month and chin. She sat there almost unnoticed and unobserved by any one, although two or throe remarked that she must be an invalid from the way she was bundled up, and thought it strange she should bo sitting outside in the cold raw air of a November evening.— The boot had scarcely reaohed deep water when . , THE SHARP CRACK OF A PISTOL was heard, which brought, everybody to their feet. The cry instantly rang through the boat that somo one was murdered, and men and women with their blanched cheeks mshed in every direction, some from fright and many in pursuit of the mutderor. It was a frightful scene. There on the floor, unconscious of all that surrounded him, lav Judge Crittenden. His wife had fainted away, and liis daughter was on her knees with clasped hands, crying ont bitterly, “papa, speak to me; oh! splmk to mo once more! Yon will not die, will yon, papa ?’’ But he did not answer; only a low gurgling sound wns heard as if the wounded man was gasping for brenili. Dr. Powers of New York city, who was just returning from a visit to the Yosemite Valley, fortunately was on board the boat, and hastening to Mr. Crittenden’s side, gavo directions as to his treatment. Ou reaching the shore a mattress was procured, on which the wounded man wits earofuly laid and carried to an express wagon in which ho was conveyed to lub residence, 391 Ellis street. He lingered in an uncon scious state until this morning, when ho died. THU MURDERESS, Mrs. Fair, is a tall, slight woman, and there are traces in her face which indicate that she was once beautiful.— She advanced upon Mr. Crittenden with a nerve and coolness worthy of a Wilkes Booth, placed the pistol within two feet of liis breast, fired, dropped the pistol noon the deck, and ran, get ting into the crowd of passengers. The ball entered Mr. Crittenden’s right breast, under the nipplo. He sat for a few seconds dr if nothing had happened to him, mid then roso and fell senseless to the the floor. It was done so suddenly that neither his wife, nor son, nor daughter, who wore near him, could realize what had occurred till they saw him prostrate and bleed ing before them. It was fully five minutes before the murderess was discovered, and then she was found standing in a cool and collected manner, among tho crowd us naly on the evening boat,. On being changed with tho deed, she admitted it immediately, saying: “I did it certain ly. Yes, 1 did it. I was looking for the clerk of tho boat to givo myself up. He has ruined me and ray child, and I MEANT TO KILL HIM.” Parker Crittendon, the son, who was on the lower deck at the time of tho time of the deadly attack, on being in formed of it, said, immediately, “I know who it; I know it would come face to face with Mrs. Fair, it was with difficulty lie could bo prevented from wrenking his revengeful wrath upon her. Mrs. Fair was arrested by C'apt. Rintzell, of tho Harbor Police, who happened to b«s in the boat, anil wns convoyed to tho City Prison. Hero she became no violent, that it was no cess try to sonil for a medical man to devise fiomo means of quieting her ra vings. At ono timn a glass of water was given her, when she took tho glass between her teeth and crushed it to pieces. A lerue piece got into her mouth, end beu the physician not been vnrv quick, aha would n»vn swat lowed Hi but be caught bar by the throetaud -p Past is Past; Le t us wntoh the Present and tlx© Future. GRIFFIN, OA., NOVEMBER 22, 1870. forced the glass from her month. An opiate was given her, and nt 10 o’clock she was very quiet TH3 MULDERED MAN. Mr. Critteaden is a nephew of the late Hon. J. J. Crittendon, and was one of the most prominent citizcus of this city. Asa lawyer he had few equals, and no superiors among those practis ing in San Francisco. Hi? opinions upon any question are generally con sidered to be the law. For many years he has been associated with Jamuel M. Wilson in the practico of the law, and no legal firm has enjoyed a larger or more valuable run of business. Ho is popular among the members of the bar, and Governor Haight showed his appreciation of his abilily by appoint ing him reporter of tho Supreme Court, which commission was handed him yesterday morning. His loss will bo keenly felt in the profession of which he is so groat an ornament. ' WHO IS MRS. FAIR? The woman whose desperate deed has startled tlio community is one whose character is well known to Cal ifornians. Her maiden name is said to have been Lane, and the first known of her in this this State was when she became the wife of Col. "Win. B. Fair, at one time Sheriff of Sacramento county, a gentleman of acknowledged accomplishments and of considerable wealth. So infatuated was lie with her that every caprice and whim of hor’s was gratified, and in a few years she had squandered his splendid fortune. But when he became a bankrupt she cast him off and took up with another man of tender sensibilties, and so deep ly did her disgrace wear on him that one night in 1858 he entered tho office of Dr. Murphy, an intimate friend, and, after remaining a few minutes, took ont a pistol and shot himself dead. — After this Mrs. Fair married again, was divorced, married again, and loft tho State. She was not heard of in some time, until a series of articles in Eastern papers bronght her before the public again, anil detailed her marve lous adventures end escapades in Mex ico, whither she lmd gone to play THE WILE OF AN ADVENTURESS, and in it she is stated to have succeed ed admirably. She emigrated to Vir ginia City in 1861, and opened the Ta hoe House, where she first met Critten den. He became so taken up with her that ho for a time forgot all things else. When the Into rebellion first broke ont she was a strong Southern sympa thizer; and when the whole Pacific coast was in a state of doubt as to the side it would declare in favor of, she made her appearance in the streets of Virginia with the “stars and bars,” in one hand and a cocked revolver in the othor, and dared any person to raise the stars and stripes in bet presence. It is stated that ono patriot was bold enough to face her, and he raised the over her house, and defied any one to pull it down. Great excitement, and ill-feeling was caused by this display on her part, but the flag was finally loweril some persons ontering the house dur ing the night and cutting the halliards When the heat of political excitement had passed away, nho was arrested and tried. Crittenden defended, and pro cured her acquital. Shortly afterward she came to this city and TOOK TO THEATRICALS, after playing minor parts in this city and Sacramento, she realized that she was not intended for an actress, and made her exit from the field of mimic life to take part in drama, more thrill ing, as it was truer than any produced by the brain of the dramatist. After her retirement from the stage, she made herself quite conspicuous at balls and theatres. Latterly she becamo acquaint ed with a man of means in this city named Schneider, and culminated tho intimacy in marriage. After SIX WEEKS OF WEDDED BLISS, and after finding that her liege lord kept a tight string on his money-bags, sho concocted a little plot that rid her of this last man. A divorce suit follow ed, which she won, and the decree was only signed on Tuesday last. Then again she was forgotten until yesterday when she brought hersolf into more terrible notoriety than ever. At midnight, the prisoner was under the influence of a along narcotic, and was resting quietly. During her rav ings sho was continually speaking of men of prominece in this city, and claiming them as her friends. Tho physician in attendance gives it ns his opinion that sho is insane. Jooh Billins’ “Ramrods.”—Ho who (luz a good thing sekretly, steals u march on heaven. It is a safer thing enny time to fol low a man’s advice than liis example.

Latest Telegrams. New York, Neeember 17. —The World's special from Florence, dated 14th, says that Cardinal Antonielle has addressed a strong protest to the pow ers against the occupation of Quirnal. Should Victor Emanuel enter Romo, the Pope will depart for Malta. The World’s Special from Tours to day says: Numerous reports reach here to the effect that Troehu mado a maghificent sortie on tho fifteenth, in flicting immense loss on tho Prussians, ahd establishing communication with General D’Aunelle. Details of the ilghtimg are incomplete, but tho sub stance of tho report is that the maJ l attack was mado along the roads load ing through St. Cloud, Severnea, and Vi-rsallies, while feints wero made to ward St. Dennis. Tho Tribune’s special from London says Granville’s circular is approved in every opposite quarter. Its firm tone has croated astonishment, especially among the Tories, whoso organ is si lent this morning. The leading Liberals are scarcely less surprised. Yesterday they expect ed acquiescent policy, and were pre pared to defeat it; to-day there is no such indication. Granville has gone beyond tho point beyond where public opinion will sup port him. Somo diplomats openly say that thoy see no way ont of it but in war; but it is difficult to see how this Cabinet can go to war, or take steps lerding to war, without being first re constructed; nor is it tlio opinion at the Foreign office that Russia means to bring on, or that England will bo compelled to accept, a conllict. Thoy say the situatation is undoubt edly grave, but before an opinion can be formed the answer of G-ortsbakoff must bo known, which cannot be prob ably (or a fortnight. Granville’s dispatch was delivered by tho Queen’s messenger at St. Peters burg on Tuesday. An instant reply is not expected, nor is it believed that GortschahofFs anticipated answer will be like that ho received. It is also affirmed, though notnnder sfcandingly, that tho fleet in the North Sea is captured. Notes havo been made for tho pres ent source of supplies for Orleans as Tair Falls back. The forces coming to his relief are advancing rapidly. Two columns have already crossed tho Boune at Sens and tlio tenth corps lias struck the river at Taunere.
