After a short interruption, caus 4d by this in- cident, the project was delivered into the te the bureaux, wiro deliberated upon , and who gave, yesterday, the teport of their refolution. Alas! ‘am sorry to sey that it was far from being favorable to the demand; and I will ouly say, that among the voters, 357 were ia to it, whilst there were only 242 tn its favor.

If the Elyséean mewspapers have made up the bills of Louis Napo- leon at the rate of three millions, the other presses of the epposttion have calculated that there were also 275,000 francs voted for additional expeases, which had not been noticed on the bill.

He thea went up to Jonathan Cope’s woods to load his gun ; he loaded one barrel—then came down by Emmor Thomas’ aneieg house. Oliphant came to him near the s] ouse, and went with him down to the woods, @ he snapped at a robin, but his gun did not go off. He then went down into the wood, and Oliphant went after the cows.

He loaded his gun again, and remained in the woods about a quarter of aa hour. He went down to the bridge, and looked back, and thought Oliphant saw him; he then went u; through the muddle of the woods, where he couli leave no tracks, towards the 8choc, nouse, and said that the tracks acrods the creek, and in the the fence, which had been measured path and thor mt to Sfiteenond with his shoes, were not made by ‘his he asserted positively more ‘(han once. . He loitered about the school house until after the mistress had C the bars which open from the road to the school house lot; as she approached the school house, he thought she saw him; he got behind a tree, hid himself, and she came around on the western side of the school house. He waited until she came to the door, took the key from the reticule, and thought her atten- tion was arrested by his shadow. He then stepped quickly out on the left side of the tree, that she might have the back of her head towards him-— Taised the gun to his shoulder, took rapid aim, and fired. He says the only exclamation she made was “Oh!” She fell against the door, thence to the stone step, and rolled off upon the ground. He looked at her about three minutes—he felt sorry as soon as it was done, and he was atraid to take the watch, for fear they would fiad him out by it. He then walked slowly west from the school house, then through the woods, and crossed the road at the corner of Euos Thomas’s corn field. In crossing the road, he jumped up the baak, and looked back, and found he had left no tracks. He went into the woods on the north side of the road, and thence into Mary Sharpless’s woods, and there loaded his gun, and shot twiee at a squirrel, but not at the tree which he had pointed out to Sheriff Darlington. He did not take Sheriff Dar- lington to the eat place, because he was afraid that they would find the wads of his gun. After 1 committed the murder, | poured the shot out of my shot bag, to avoid discovery--some of it [ poured out m the woods of Enos Thomas, and | some of it in Mary Sharpless’s woods.

He was asked how long he had harbored the idea of shooting her. He said that he had beea meditzting it during the week. Said he went to the school house once before to shoot her, but he thought he wouldn’ do it. He said he never had it in bis head to shoot anybody before. [a thinking about it, | sometimes thought it would be horrible to shoot her; but, he said, 1 seemed | was to do it. | Assoon as it was done! was sorry for it. Mr Lewis, one of my counsel, wus the first person 1 ever confessed the murder to; it was on Sunday | evening last, (the next day after his conviction;) [ never acknowledged it before. 1 had denied m guiitto my counsel. | thought I could be cleares —I thought so at first, but I did not think so to- wards the last of the trial. * © * ¢ hie deetroyed that paper, | would not have been con- vieted.

He said he slept soundly on the night of the murder; it did not trouble him; 1t was late when be went to bed. It has not troubled my sleep since my imprisonment; 1 have never dreamed of Rachel Sharpless.
