Ne have been informed by some gentle men of the first responsibility, direct from Texas, that Mr. Elin of the State of Georgia, was murdered by his companion, a Mr. James Jenkins on the Colorado river in Austin's Colony, on the 27th of March last, under circumstances of the most shocking and aggravated nature.

 The deceased and his murderer Jenkins, had during the last winter left Georgia in company, had made some selections and purchases of land for their future residence. Eiiin, the deceased, wishing to remain in Texas, gave to Jenkins power of attor- ney to go on to Georgia and bring his ne- groes to Texas. 4 day or two before his (Jenkins) departure, while alone with El- lin in the woods, Jenkins murdered Ellin, toek from his person between $500 and Si2000, and has in all probability proceeded forthwith to Georgia, to take possession of the said negroes, under his power of attorney, with the view of converting them into cash, and making his escape before any intelligence of his horrible crime shall reach the section of country in which the deceased resided. Said murderer, James Jenkins, is about six feet high, dark eyes and hair and between p or 30 years of age. The civil authorities of Texas have used every exertion for his arrest without any avail. Editors throughout the State, friends of humanity, are requested to give publicity to the foregoing, Refer to James Barnett, James Collinsworth and w. H. Wharton, Texas.
