! MACON, GEO. r[ M. ; si)\V MORNING, JAN. 28,1845. yH'BDKU OF I'Al'Ii UOI.V. \V r o have been furnished by our esteemed I 'jffircsentative, Col. A. H. Chappell, witli tlic following particulars of the murder of our fel- iott-citif.-n, Paul Roux, and of the arrest of the Murderer. Washington Cjtr, Jan. 15th, ’Ll Yesterday morning the Coroner of llalti- pjore enquir' d of me, through the Telegraph, whether I knew a person tvlio had been found murdered in that city by the, name of Paul iloux, supposed to be from Macon, Georgia; Opposed, also, to bo a hardware dealer. I ic- nlicd by Telegraph that I knew a citizen of .Macon, by the name of Roux, a guh-smith by trade, but" that I did not remember his Chris tian name. The Telegraph instantly re turned an nnswor that the murdered matt was no doubt the same person ; that from articles found in his trunk it was probable lie was a gunsmith. I then asked when lie reached Bal timore ; from what quarter he came ; whether 'direct from the South 1 To this it was answer ed that ho reached Ealtimnre at 11 o’clock Sunday n : glif in the cars from Philadelphia. 1 then asked to be inf >rmod of some particu- JafS of the murder. In reply to which I recei ved the information contained in the enclosed Telegraphic despatch. I send you, also, here with,"ho Baltimore Patriot of last night, contain ing the full details of the horrid case. The most active endeavors, you will see, arc ma king to apprehend the murderer and bring him to justice. I entertain not a doubt that the vic tim of this fell crime was our townsman. The House is still engaged in committee of the wlio'cin the debate on the Texas question. It is probable that the vote will he taken on Sat urday. Considerable diversity of opinion pre vails os ,0 «bat w '** kc the result. I incline strongly to the hope t,,at lt wi]1 be a favorable one. Inm not, however, without fear that it may fail in consequence of the division of opin ion among the numerous plans that have been submitted, 1 am. very respectfully. Your obedient serv’t, A V H.

Ilrro follow’s an account of the murder ns given by the Baltimore Patriot: FOUL AND DELIBERATE MURDER. One of the most shocking and bloody mur ders, perhaps ever perpetrat'd within our city was brought to light last night t oroner Breenfield was called upon about 11 o’clock in the niglu to hold an i’ quest over tin; body of a young man, pp-bubly 25 years of age, found dead in his bed it: the house of Thomas No land, keeper of a small tavern in South Charles Mrrct, oppos-to the Rail Road Depot. The name of the murdered man, as appears from 1-ttcrs and papers found in his trunk, and from the trunk itself, which bears the name on a brass plate, is Paul Roux, a member as was shown by a certificate found, of the Odd Fel low’s L'»dgc in Macon, Gcorgin. He also be- l"ngcd to the Ocmulgce Encampment, No. 2, tt Macon. Itapjiears that he arrived in Baltimore from Plqla lelpliin, by the caps on Sunday night about 11 o’clock, and through solicit; tion of the landlord, (Nolan.) took lodgings at his house. It further app- ars upon a reitivcstiga- tipn this morning, before Justice P. nnfdgton, torn fief Greenfield, and Mr. Pinkney, coun sel for tlffe State, upon the evidence of Mr. No lan, that himself and a young man named Hen- fy McCurry, a hoarder in the house, carried (he trunk of the deceased to his (Nolun’s) house from the Depot. After entering the bar room McCurry and the stranger sat down by the stove to warm themselves, and between 11 and 12 o'clock retired to bed in a room in the third story, where there were two beds. The morn ing came when McCurry arose and came down *s usual to tftc6kf.ist, excepting thut he locked the rooniantf kop v thc key in h:s pocket. About eight o’clock, a woman named Leon- ard, who, with her husband were boarders in tho hou>c, wont up to make the bed, when she found the door locked. Nothing further was said of the matter until about half past eight o’clock last night, when tli landlord proceeded to the room to prepare it for another lodger.— lie found the door still locked. A duplicate key, kept by his wife, was obtained, when the tloor was opened, and on entering, the bidy of Mr. Roux was found in the bed, with his throat cut from ear to cur, and the skull of the right temple completely battered in With the back of uh axe, subsequently found under the bed,’ leav ing the brains scattered over the pillow and the led saturated with blood. McCurry; au Irishman, who' had been a Mkrderkttbe house about five weeks, and room toate of the murdefed irian, cohtiuued at the fo’ern until eight o’clock last evening, when he Mi in tho cuYs for Philadelphia. It was not until about a half hour after his departure that tbeinurdcrod man was discovered The trunk Mthe deceased had been left in the bar ronm below, and on opening it, the key of the room fo which the murder had been perpena’dd was found at the bottom of a small leather pocket ut- Isdicd to'llielid, whilst the key of the trunk *s's found in a trunk belonging to McCurry, tfoposited hi a private robin of the landlord, the ~^ or tb which was locked.' It appears that McCurry had been permitted 10 attend the bar *** "'as acquainted with the house. The axe found under the bed hnd been in tl;6 cellar. It "as very dull and could not have been used in cutting tho throat, though no sharper instru. "font was found. . Several witnesses Were exnni’r this morn- in (h whose testimony went to s'! uw almost be- >onda doubt, that the terrible deed had been ’[fftiaird bv McCiirry; who is supposed lo hnvc fled towards Philadelphia. The body of the deceased was taken care of by the Odd Fellows’Society, by tlmm it is to be in'ered The deceased appeared to be a!>out 25 years of ogo, had several fine suits of clothing in his trunk, and p ipers showing that ho was n hard ware merchant, or dealer in guns, pistols, &c. in Macon. Some persons from ihnt place were sent for } blit they Could riot rccogmze him. Nolan, the landlord, and Leonard, the bond er, were held to bail in the sum of §2000 each, to appear before the Grand Jury as witnesses. Whether tfiey obtained the security or not, we are unable to say. Thus fir there appears lo be much mystery about the affair. Officers were despatched this morning to Philadelphia to arrest the supposed murderer. The house was searched, but nothing found to implicate the inmates. There is no doubt that the deceased was robbed, as no money was found in hi# trunk or in the room. A black silk handkerchief was found under the pillow, in which it is supposed money may have been placed. He had bills and receipts showing purchases made in New York to the amount nf about $2000. McCur ry paid the landlord’s bill in gold previous to Ins departure. The deceased was on his way South, and purposed leaving yesterday, by the way of Norfolk’. The following bulletin announces the arrest of the murderer: Telegraph Office. Jan. 17, 1845. ) A of 3 o’clock, P. M J Rid'clv, of the firm of Hays! Steel & Ridge- ley, lias just arrived from N. I’., where he ar rested the murderer of Mr. Roux, in whose possession he found the watch and clothing of the deceased. He had taken passage for Eng land, and was to start yesterday at 12 o’clock. He was arrested two hours before the ship sail ed, and tried to cut his th-ont last night on the strength of it. Ri-quisiti >n has been got from the Governor of Maryland. ALFRED VAIL.

From the Washington Glolt, r January 20th. In the Senate, to-day, Mr. Benton p.-esented the resolutions of the Legislature of Missouri, instructing the Senators from that Siutc to use their best exertion in behalf of the annexation of Texas to the United States. Mr. Benton made some remarks concurring in these reso lutions—that the reannexa'ion of Texas is a great national ni’-asuie, and that the safety and interests of both Governments require and de mand i. at the earliest practicab'e period. He said he had been of that opinion ever since the country was given away in 1819. He read copi-ius extracts from his speech in 1836, tra- j cing the causes of the Texas revolution ; and | showed the parallel furnished between his i speech at that time and the resolutions nowpre- j sented, maintaining the justice of that revolt!, tion. lie commended the spirit of compromise exh'bited by the resolutions of his legislature. He looked upon it as a great national measure, which s'.ould never he degraded into any thing sectional or partisan. Mr. Atchison followed in some few remarks, acknowledging, to the fullest extent, the right of instruction. He de clared himself willing to go farther even than the resolutions of instruction demanded for the acquisition of Texas. He concurred fully with them in the opinion that there was no power on earth to consult in the adjustment of this mea sure but Texas nml the United States; and ex- tho increase and diffusion of knowledge among men. The bill fur the Settlement of tin* Du buque claim was then discussed at gn at length, and laid upon the table for the present. The Senate spent the remainder of the day in execu tive session'. In the House, Mr. R. Smith, of Illinois, in pursuance of notice given, obtained leave; and introduced a bill granting certain alternate sections of land to the Slate of Illinois, to aid in the construction of the Alton and Mount Carmel, and Alton and Shawnee town railroad; which was read twice, and referred to the Coni- \ mitten on Public Lands. On motion of Mr. ! C. Johnson, the House then resolved itself into Committee of the Whole on the state of the U r nion,and resumed the considerations of the joint resolutions for the reannexation of Texas.-— Messrs. Harralson, Uamlin Iii <jnd Ficklin, ad dressed the committee in favour- of the meas ure, and Messrs. Collamar and Seymour of New York spoke in opposition to it. Mr. Dromgoole obtained the floor, and the com mittee rose and reported progress. The House then adjourned. for the macox TELKnnAru. Mr. Editor: Our city has never been re markable, either at borne or abroad, on the score of health; and it seems our worthy board of Aldermen are disposed to make it still more subject to criticism on Hu's herd. ns I see they have advertised, for a i ease-of years, the I. rick- yard locati d almost in the heart of our ciiy.-^- In all well-regulated communities the business of brick making, slaughtering of animals, top* ncries, &c. has always been looked upon in the light of’a nuisance, and is very wisely confined to the outskirts of the city—and in fact in the charter of our city they am so expressly termed I presume, however, this matter was gotten up expressly for sit me particular persons' benefit (in defiance of the advice of our most di>tin guished physicians) and we must not complain We shall next have a butcher pen on the Burn^ district, or in the Court house square.

Fay called our attention a few days ago to a number of bales of cotton, about fifty we believe, which he purchased front Mr. Dinkins.'of Houston County, at S% cents pound.' The cotton was raised from the common Pet tit Gulf seed, on lund which docs not exceed in richness the general lands of Houston, but by great cafe and attention Exercised in pack ing and ginning, Mr. Dinkins received one cent higher per*pound for his crop,'than the best quality of other cottons received at this market would command.' Th s is un example worthy of b- ing follow ed. Quariiiiy lias always been the great object with our Planters and quality altogether a'se condary matter.' Would it not be far better to plant le?s Cotton and pay more care and at- pressed bis admiration of the spirit of compro mise which was evident iji tlic rcsoluitons.— The resoluiions were tjrdered to be printed, nnd referred to the Committee ori Foraign Re lations. Mr. Allen presented a memorial (the prayer of which he enforced by some remarks) in favor of the extension of the laws of the Unit ed States, without delay, over the Oregon Ter ritory.

Several other lulls of a private character having been con sidered and ordered for engrossment, the Sen ate spent the remainder of ti e day in discussing the bill authorizing the making of permanent contracts for transporting the United States mail o*t Rail R<>ads; which was finally post poned tiff Mo day. the 3d of February next.

The House then adopted a resolution to neet at 11 o’clock, instead of 12, for the rfefminder of the session. Tho rcs-du- tions for tho reanm-xat on of Texas were then taken up, in Cooirriittee of the Whole; and Mr. Hammett, of Mississippi, addressed the Committee in favor of the measure. Messrs. Hudson an-l Mar>li followed in opposition to it; afier winch, the committee' rose, and the House adjourned. January 21st.
