The Murder.

The contents of our extra Of Monday will
be found on the fourth page of this issue
Since the rendering of the verdict by the
Coroner's jury, numerous discoveries have
been made, fixing guilt upon the Cinnamon
accused beyond a shadow of doubt, if, in
decd there was from the first discovery of
the body The murderers. in fact, wrote a
letter back TO the Cinnamon in jackson, upon
the subject. Mr.. Perrin recovered his horses
Iat Folsom, from whence the Cinnamon escap-
led to Sacramento, and from thence to Marys-
vile and the north.
Mr.. Griswold's hat was found under a
loose board in the floor, where it had been
Thrown lest its presence should excite an ear
ly suspicion of the murder
The shirt which the Chinaman lad on at
breakfast, Gas can be fully proved, has been
found in the room where the body was con-
cealed, the sleeves bloody up to the elbows.
IT was torn open in front. as if taken off in
haste
There was probably not ten consecutive
8mlnutes during the day without some one cal
ling at the house.
& One man was at but not in the house, be-
fore the Cinnamon had left and after the
Hdeed was committed, as the cook had chang
ed his shirt from the one he had on in the
morning, and in which he committed the deed.
The fact that the murderers left $35 in the
victims pocket, and his gold watch upon his
person, argues that they were hard pressed.
