MURDER WILL OUT. Many of our readera will remember, that some inoiitha since, the ntululated body of a mini was diac ivered, concealed in the trunk of n hollow tree, ill Jones county ; and that from the marks of violence upon hi* person, it was clearly demonstrated he had met his fate at the hand of some brutal assassin. The body of •he murdered man was recognized, from his apparel and other circumstance*, as that of n pedlar of jewelry, hy the name of Isaacs, who had but n short lime previous, left Macon, in the persuit of his vocation. All endeavors to diocover the perpetrators of the diabolical net had proved unavailing, anti the dark deed wus passing from reiiiemheranre; until, as we learn a communication was received hy the Gover nor during the past week, from the Mayor of ! harleftton, enclosing the confrnrtion of a man named Henry Jones, who acknowledges him self to have witnessed the murder ami to have received a portion of the good* of which tlte pedlar was despoiled. He iinplit'ntesasa prin cipal in tho murder, a ventriloquist hy the name of t-owles, and a man whose name Ita thinks was Dickerson, who hml employed him to carry tltem about the country to tin*, places where they were to give exhibitions.
