From information received here since the

 publication of the Gazette, we learn that the

 murderer, whose name Is stated to have been

 James c Johnson, was overtaken ih St. Fran cis county, and brought back to the spot

 where he committed the murder. He con- fessed his crime, and stated that as he knew he should be hung, he preferred being execu- ted at once--that he had nothing to plead in extenuation of his crime, and was willing to suffer the penalty of death. He averred that after killing Robinson, he obtained only one hundred and eleven dollars, which he found in piece of paper. Supposing that to be all the money in the possession of the murdered man, he threw the pocket book away, which has not yet been found. He was afraid to take gold watch, which was on Robinson $ person-and left it with him. After hearing his confession, in the presence of abont fifty persons, he acds instantly haRg-and after re- maining suspended sufficient time, his body was thrown behind the same log where the body of his victim was found, and left there.
