some statements to the sheriff, which induc. ed him to arrest man by the name of Niles, living, we believe, in the town of New Albi- on. Niles was brought in town, and under. went an examination before Israel Day, Esq

 While the wife of MT. Niles was on the stand testlfying, the sheriff came into the court room and stated that the prisoner (BohaiD was in very high state of exciement-in convusions, on account of having accused

 MT. Niles of the murders-in trying to im- plicate an innocent man, and that Bohall &C., knoWledged that Niles was not, in any way, concerned in the horrd transaction. Seve- ral witnesses had already been examined, and to make the matter still more clear, one more was called upon the stand. The evil dence went conclusveIy to show that Mr.

 Niles was an innocent and injured man. He was accordingly discharged.

 We then went down stairs to the north- west room in the court house, where Bohall had been placed, during the examination, and if we ever saw the workings of guilty conscience, we saw it there He was evi. cently in great agony of mind-indeed in convulsions, prostrate on the floor, occasion ally crying loudly for mercy. If it be pos. sible for the guilty upon earth to feel the tor ments ot the damned, that miserable man felt it then.

 The crowd by this time, becoming so great. ] he was removed to the se"'l. '"st Iooii'' ] where. in the presence of a few individuals, 1 he made a confession of the horrid crime We were one of the number, and we give the facts, as near as we can now recollect, as they fell from his own lips. He stated that he made up his mind on the Sunday | night previous to kill them-that on Monday morning he arose very early, made fire' and then went up to MT. Brown's-found that MT. Brown had gone down into the sugar 1 bush to gather some sap buckets-picked up a round beech stick, at the door, about three feet long, and went down into the woods, and assisted the deceased in getting the buckets, and started for the house-while on the way he struck deceased from behind, with club; he struck him but twice, and he states that MT. Brown never spoke after the first blow. He then threw the club among the brush, and started back to B.'s house. He describ- ed to MT. Carpenter, deputy sheriff, from Leon. the place where he threw the club MT. Carpenter, in company with Judge Day of ConeywangO, on his return home proceed ed to the spot described by the prisoner, and there found the club covered with blood and hair. After he had imbrued his hands in the blood of poor Brown, he then went to his house, where he found Mrs. Brown partly dressed, sitting in front of the fire, smoking. He told her he was going to kill her. She made no effort to escape, supposing him jest ing, and only remarked that he would not dare strike her. He then stepped towards the door and took up an axe, approached her in front, and while that poor defenceess wo- man was entirely alone, unconscious of her danger, he sent her spirit to another world, by striking her prostratc upon the floor. He repeated the blow once-and only once, and she lay at the feet of the demon, a man. gled corpse, weltering in blood. He drew blanket from the bed over her-searched the chest and found the pocket book with the money in, took . rifle belonging to the de- ceased, fastened the door, went home and went 10 chopping wood at his own door, All this was the work of d few moments, and before breakfast.

 He secreted the rifle in the woods, but did not secrete the money until few moments before he was arrested. Since his arrest he has told Mr. Carpenter where he secreted it, and Mir. c. has found it-$l9 only-the re- mainder he paid out. The rifle has also been found.

 MT. and Mrs. Brown had no person living with them, and had only been married a few weeks, and were respectable and industrious people. Brown was an Irishman. They have neither of them, any relations, known of in this country. Bohall acknowledged that he had been on perfectly friendly terms with | them-no animosty existing between them. | AIoney-less than one hundred dollars, in- duced him to extirpate whole family. Mississippi coming.-The Grenada Report CT, one ot the most spirited and thoroughgo- ing Loco Loco Foco papers in all Mississippi, has hauled down the Van Burcn flag and hoisted that of Harrison and Tyler. The editor says:

 "We frankly confess we are convinced we have been in error-doing wrong to our self, our country and posterity,in the humble, but hearty support we have hitherto render ed the Administration we therefore aban- don it. We have believed that the policy of the Administration would promote the pros- perity and happiness of our country. It is now plain to our mental vision that a more ruinous policy, one more destructive to all the great branches of industry and trade which make up the sum total Of our coun- try's business, wealth and prosperity, could not be pursued. We see the most energetic and enterprising of our citizens daily failing around we can see every branch of busi- ness stagnant, every trade and profession suffering; we see all the chiet staples, and particularly the great staple of the South, depressed to a degree totally ruinous to the producer we see the Government it. self, with all its boasted self sustaining pow CTS. after separating itself from the people, and floundering in the maZeS of labyrinthne | 'experiment,' reduced to the necessity of is- suing batch after batch of Treasury shin plasters to pay off its creditors.
