LOCAL.

Barbarous murder. - Lately, the body of a man named Henry Flack, in the employ of Mr. William Hepburn, of the district of Great Swanport, was found in a mutilated state. As strong suspicion exists, that the deceased had been inhumanly murdered, a reward of £50 to any free person, (and a recommendation to a conditional pardon, to a prisoner of the crown) on apprehension and conviction of the perpetrator or perpetrators, has been offered by the Colonial Government.
