By Yesterday's Southern Mail.


The Richmond Dispatch says, "A statement relative to the murder of Miss Jane Graham, of Monroe County, which we copied a few days ago from the Greenbrier Era, will be remembered by our readers. It was there intimated that suspicion rested upon Joseph Graham and his four sons (father and brothers of the deceased) of having committed the deed. A friend writes to us from Lewisburg that they have all been arrested."
