Sherman's Murders.

--On the 3d, a lady, a gentleman and his little daughter were killed in Atlanta by fragments of Yankee shells, and about eleven o'clock at night, Mr. Warner, the Superintendent of the Gas Works, and his little daughter, lying in the same bed, were killed by a round shot. The child was severed in two, dying instantly; the father had both thighs cut off close to the body, and lived about two hours.
