Mysterious--We learn from the Vicksburg Intelligencer, that a man calling himself Wm. H. Miller called upon the sexton of that place on the 29th ult., to bury his wife, who, he said had died on board of a steam boat, he made enquiries for the sexton desiring to obtain his services to bury a volunteer. His conduct awakened the suspicion of that officer, who deposited the body in a vault, gave information to the Coroner, who with his usual promptitude summoned a Jury.--Upon examination evident marks of a foul murder was discovered. It proved to be the body of a woman with her neck broke, and marks of the hand and fingers round her throat. The man we understand has been committed.
