MURDER AT WEBBER's CRossING.-The town
was excited by a report that came on Sunday,
and which proved too true, of foul murder
committed at Webber's crossing. A young
man named VIM. Marshall of Montezuma
Hill, was found on the toll bridge at the cross
ing shot in the breast and dead. The horse he
rode was at large but standing not far off on
the bridge. Blood found on the saddle indica-
ted that the murdered man had been shot while
on horseback. Fine marks showed that the
muzzle CT the gun was near his breast when the
fatal shot was given. Marshall left Mo1tezuma
for Nevada at about one O'Clock on Sunday af-
ternoon and was found dead about an hour af-
ter. lie was on his way to this city with two
thousand dollars of Adams & Cos. scrip, de-
signing to send it to Yew York for collection
lie had little money on his person. The scrip,
money and his papers were found untouched in
his pockets, and every indication seemed to say
he was not murdered for gain.
Suspicion fell John Long, the toll collector,
as the perpetrator of the horrid deed. Long
lived in the toll house but few yards distant
from the SPOT where the body was found. No 9th
| er person lived within half mile. Marshall was
killed by shot gun. Long had shot gun
in the toll house and one barrel was found dis
charged. The shot taken from the body cor
responded with that kept at the toll house
Long came to Nevada and told his employer.
John Weber, that a man was lying on the
bridge but he was entirely ignorant whether
the man was dead. and if so. how, when or by
whom he was killed He said he did not go 20
the body to if life was extinct, but supposed
it was. and said he was away from the house at
the time of killing.
Coroner Henry proceeded to the spot on Sun
day afternoon and summoned jury. The facts
elected were above given, and the jury gave
/ their opinion that the deceased came to bis
death by the hands Of John Long. who was ac-
cording'y arrested and lodged in jail. On We'd
nesday the accused was taken before Justice
Kendall, but waivins an examination he was
returned to Jail to await the action Of the next
grand jury.
Ii is proper in this connection to remark that
Marshail WAS young man hlghlN esteemed py

THE srAMEsE Twins were the attraction Of
the town on Friday and Saturday last. Crowds
went to the most remarkable living case of
lssus nainTg yet exhibited. The impressions on
the public mind regarding the Siamese Twins
are singularly diverse and curious 1t was evi-
dent from the questions put to them by some Of
their visitors here, that they are regarded as
something like learned pigs, rs a pair fixed up
for show by some money making Yankee, and
not as a reality Of nature. The twins answered
all questions however absurd pleasantly, and.
We think, convinced the most Of those who saw
them that they came together into the world
and are likely to go out together. son of
each, bright and intelligent youths, accompany
he twins, and add not little to the pleasant
ness of the levees.

New YEARS DAY.-0ur citizens observed the
beginning of the New Year as a general rule
by staying at home and minding their own bu-
siness. About a hundred social eussex, howey-
er, went around to see their friends, take the
air, and bite here and there, but more particu-
larly to report on the various stages of vinous
fermentation going on in the different parts
OF the town and surrounding country. We are
happy to state they found the vintage of the
last year approaching a degree of excellence
far exceeding their most sanguine expectations,
and what is Of more Importance, they discover
ed the supply to be extraordinarily large The
boys, we learn, came back from their tour of in
spection thoroughly satisfied with the promise
the New Year affords, and full to overAowing
with the good things they met in their joyful
Journey.
