Another Yankee Murder.

--A gentleman who left Atlanta a few days ago, reports that a man by the name of Larkin Smith was suspected by the enemy as having been concerned in the hanging of the bridge-burners of 1862. He was twice arraigned and tried, but by some means came out clear both times. He afterwards started for our lines, and had nearly reached Rough and Ready when he was overtaken by a file of men and carried back to Atlanta, where he was soon afterwards hung.
