Murder.
--We learn that a most cold-blooded and unprovoked murder occurred at the house of Mr. W. H. Patrick, in this county, about twenty miles southwest of Raleigh, on Thursday evening last.
The facts of the affair, as testified before a Coroner's inquest, held over the body of the murdered man, are substantially these: Mr. Jno. C. Cannady was inside of Mr. Patrick's house, and having started to go out, had just reached the door-steps, when he was fired upon and shot dead by Jno. Harwood, who was standing in the yard, but a short distance from the steps.
Harwood gave his victim no warning, and committed the heinous crime of murdering a fellow-being without the slightest apparent provocation.
The murderer made his escape as soon as the deed was committed, and has not up to this time been arrested.--Raleigh (N. C.) Register, 18th.

Corcoran, telegraphed this afternoon that they have had an interview with the President, Secretary of State, and Gen. McClellan, and that the result is such as to justify the expectation that their wish will be gratified at an early day. There are difficulties of a serious character still in the way, but it is thought they can be overcome without making any concessions to the rebels.
One of these difficulties is, that the rebels insist upon being addressed as the "Government of the Confederate States," and that in the necessary official papers to be exchanged.
Jeff. Davis shall be styled "President." Mr. Seward, while determined that the rebels shall not be gratified in this particular, is ready to offer them informally such an exchange as will probably move them to abandon the conditions upon whic
