INeUEsF.-A Coroner's inquest was held at
Webber's Crossing, Nevada county, Sunday
evening last, over the remains of William
Marshall, who was murdered on the after
noon of the 30th ult. 1t seems he left Mon
tezuma Hill for Nevada for the purpose of
making arrangements to collect $4,000 on
Adams & Co., which drafts we're found in his
possession. Marshall was born in Ireland
and aged about IS years. He came to this
country from Argyle, N. Y, in 1858. He
was man of good reputation and temperate
in his habits.
The jury found that he was killed by John
Long, the toll keeper at Webber's bridge
Long is under arrest
The Nevada Transcript of Thursday, has
come to MS, and has the following.
John Long, charged with the murder of
William Marshall, at Webber's Bridge, last
Sunday was brought before Justice Kendall.
yesterday afternoon, but waived an examin-
alton, and was committed. We know noth-
ing about the murder or the circumstances
attending it but we do know that William
Marshall was a gentleman whom we were
proud to enroll in the list of our friends He
was, by birth, an Irishman, of the province
of Ulster, and in conduct and sentiment, was
as fine a specimen of the real Irish gentle
man as we ever met.

1S92-As bad as the condition of things
may seem in South Carolina, says a cotempo-
rary, that State has not yet reached the po'
sition she assumed in although we are
free to say that the general bearing of her
actions seems to be to the same end, if no
farther. She then declared in general con-
vention that unless by time named all the
revenue laws of the federal government were
repealed she would secede. How grandly
and truly did "Old Hickory" meet the issue
in this presentation of the case in his proca>
nation, where he said:
ga repeal of all the acts for raising reve-
enue, leaving the government without the
means OF support; or an acquiescence in the
dissolution of our Union by the secession of
one of its members. When the first was pro.
posed, it was known that it could not Le list
ened to for a moment. 1t was known that if
force was applied to oppose the execution of
the laws that 1T must be repelled by force
that Congress could not without involving
itself in disgrace and the country in ruin, ac-
cede to the proposition; and yet if this is not
done in given day, or if any attempt is
made to execute the laws, the State is, by the
ordinance, declared to be out of the Union.
The majority of a convention assembled for
the purpose have dictated these terms, or
rather this rejection ofall terms in the name
of the people of South Carolina 1t is true
that the Governor of the State speaks of the
submission of their grievances to q conven-
tion of all the States, which he SAYS they
sincerely and anxiously seek and desire. -
Y ct this obvious and constitutional mode of
obtaining the sense of the other States on the
construction of the federal compact, and
amending it if necessary, has never been at
tempted by those who have urged the State
on to this destructive measure"

WHAT LOVE FOR BILLY MULLIGAN DIP
Since notifying you of the Affections of Billy
Mulligan, and of their nominal partial allevi-
alton by romantic marriage, at the hour OF
his departure for the pententiary, have seen,
says the New York correspondent of the Bull
letin, the details Of that transaction. Mrs.
Mary A. Lewis, or "Belle Lewis" as she is,
according to the New York papers sometimes
called, is something of an Aspasia among the
fancy, the members of the City Council, and
other fast men, and became enamored of Mul-
ligan two years ago. He was at that time in
straightened circumstances, out of money and
in shabby clothes, ekeing out a meagre sub
sistence by acting as a decoy to gambling
houses. From a seedy loafer, she translated
Billy into a well-dressed and dashing speci-
men of his tribe, and poured money into his
pockets in ineXhaustess supply. The two
were married at the prison by Police Justice
Brennan, Mrs. Foster, the matron of the fe-
male department., acting as bridesmaid, and
Charles Sutton, warden of the Toombs, as
groomsman. Billy was then hustled off to
Sing Sing, and the new made Mrs. Mulligan
returned to her carriage and drove home
ward. She is about thirty years of age, of
considerable personal attractions and has some
property which she vows she will spend to
the last cent to procure his release. She has
already made an appeal to Gov. Morgan to
shorten the term of Billy's absence.

A BLOODY DEED.-Samuel T. Newell, late
publisher of the Auburn Signal, was killed
in San Francisco, on New Years day, by
Horace Smith, a lawyer residing at Auburn,
end brotherin-law Of Judge Hardy. The
Bulletin thus describes the occurrence
"The parties seem to have met in front of
Ashim & Bros clothing store, lis Sacra-
mento street. The first seen of any affray
was that Newell was running into the store
where he fell close by the end of the counter,
| only six or eight feet from the door. One of
the employees of the establishment says that
he heard a scrambling and saw Newell on
| the floor and Smith and tall man close upon
him. He supposed that blow had been al
ready dealt. He ran TO the street to call
Police and then turning saw that another
blow had been inflicted, he heard gurgling
sound, saw Newell lying further up the
store on the floor, saw Smith deliberately
wiping his bowie knife, and sheath it, while
he muttered something. Then the two men,
Smith and the tall man in the black clothes
walked off. Newell rolled und ar the counter
to the other side, bedabblingSthe floor with
| blood. Then staggering to his feet he rushed
to the far end of the store and fell again. He
was laid upon a mattress, bleeding profusely.
In about fifteen minutes he died. His re-
mains were removed to the Coroner's office.
The corpse was that of well
made but not large man. His hair was brown
and his moustache of yellowsh color
Otherwise the face was clean shaved"
Smith went to the station house and gave
himself up He was taken and locked in
The Bulletin adds:
"a score of rumors are afioat as to the
cause of the ditficulty-we can vouch for
none of them. One of them was that Newell
was paying attention to young lady who
had some property; that Smiths wife warned
the young lady that Newell was not good
man-that he had a wife already, &c, that
this provoked Newell to the use of language
derogatory to the character of Mrs. Smith,
and that Smith then determined TO be avengy
ed upon the slanderer of his wife. Another
was that Newell had boosted of his acquain-
tance with Mrs. Smith in way that rehec-
ted dishonor upon her, and that Smith there
upon determined to be avenged. Smiths
wife is said to be the sister of Judge Hardy
fact stated to account for the alleged pres
ence of Hardy with Smith at the station
house. Smith is large, stout man, of sandy
or reddish hair and bruchy whiskers. He
would probably weigh 200 pounds, lie is a
lawyer of some little note in Auburn.

On Dec. 20th Ingalls, reported the ordi-
nance of secession, which declares and ordains
the repeal of the ordinance of May 23d, l77S,
whereby the Constitution of the States was
ratified, and all Acts of Assembly to ratify
amendments of the Constitution to the States.
The ordinance was passed unanimously. at
a quarter past one, one hundred and sixty
nine members voting.
The news spread rapidly, with immense
cheering.
1t was ordered that the Clerk telegraph
members at Washington.
Before the passage of the ordinance there
was rambling debate upon the condition in
which the State would be left, in the absence
of laws of Congress 1t was generally conce-
ded that State laws would be sufficient until
it could be decided what should be done
The ordinance was ordered engrossed on
parchment, to be signed by the President
and members, at half past six o'clock in the
evening at Institute Hail.
The news produced intense excitement
among the members of Congress, and for Il
long time confused the proceedings.
