Superintendent Stockdale said nothing had been found on the deceased, and also intimated that he had no further evidence to offer at present, but he believed the perpetrator of the 'murder ..oula be disenvorotl. The Coroner, addressing the ism, thought he need not trouble them to meet again. It was clear that a murder had been committed by some person or persons, and their verdict should be to that effect. The matter would come now before the magistrates. The jury accordingly returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown," and were dismissed. But although no further evidence was adduced before the coroner, the facts which have sinee transpired add to the belief that the real murderer bas been discovered. After the inquest, the two prisoners (Gabriel Gibson, the Swede, and Richard Keenan, the Irishmen) were taken before the magistrates, and again remanded. These two men have been identified beyond question as the two men in whose company the deceased was at eleven o'clock at night. The prisoners were on Thursday placed in the gaol yard with other prisoners, and were picked out by one or two witnesses as the men seen in the deceased's company shortly before the murder. The two prisoners, immediately after the cries of " Murder " were heard, joined their ship, lying at the docks, and, when questioned afterwards, denied that they had heard any noise ; nor could they give a satisfactory account of their proceedings on the night in question.
