Special t.> Kmqcuur-Fun.J Atlanta, Feb. 21.—Tho testimony iu tho Bedell murder caso closed this after noon. Tho nrgumeut will commence to morrow, when a conclusion will be reached. Tho defense introduced only three wit nosses, and their evidence iu favor of the accused was very tame and poor. Not a link in tho strong chain of evidence aguiust him was broken, or even weak ened. Tho general impression is tho do fondant will not ho allowed bail. Guiues Chisolm, the defendant, made n short statement. He confessed that he fired tho fatal shot. When tho killing occurred ho was ou his way home to avoid a difficulty, llo fired at the meeting with Bedell because ho thought Bedell was go ing to Rhoot him. Tho decision will, without doubt, be reached to-morrow. DEFAULTER BOUND OVER. Corey, tho defaulting Cashier of the Freodmen’s Bank, was bound over to-day to the Superior Court.

Dr. Panooast, owing to tho indefatigable porsovorance of whom the fraternity are indebted for their choice study to-night, occupied a middle point, and road to his congregated brotbron the report. Of course it was filled with perplexing tech nicalities, which tho ordinary render could not comprehend, and which Committee on Privileges and Flections, in tho Alabama contested Senatorial elec tion of Spencer against Sykes, was to-day concluded by lion. Alexander White, counsel for Mr, Spencer. Tho discussion has disolosod that while tbero is no doubt that tho Republican candidates fur tho Legislature woro olocted in the disputed countioF, upon which turned tho question which of tho two rival Legislatures had a quorum und was thn truo Legislature, yet those in tho Democratic tor Capi tol; Legislature having tho certifi cates of the Secretary of Statu, it j is probnhlo that a rtrong minority oorrespuudout is personally obliged to t * M1 oouiuiiltoe, if not a majority, will pass by tlio board.

The body of tho ono who diod first was per vaded with a dark bluish tint, while the corpse of the ono who diod lust wus com paratively white; showing conclusively that tho idood hurt flowed from tho living into the dead aud coagulated in tho veins of the latter, rendering tho same, ns sub sequently shown, more easily to bo pre served. Tho naval, as heretofore state !, was directly in tho centro of tho connect ing link, uo other umbilicus existing, THE NERVOUS CONNECTION of each extended only to the middle uf the baud, aud honco a pin stuck in the ouo made no impression whatovor upon tho other.

The baud wus found to coutaiu pouches resting one against the other, tho outlines of w*hich might or might not have been gono urouud with the knife while the twins wore olive; that is, the question of their separation is still a doubtful ono. There is very little nervous distribution identified with the pouches.
