Found guilty.
--Randolph Bennett was tried before John M. Gregory, Esq., Judge of Henrico County Court, on Friday, for manslaughter, in causing the death of Jim Page, a free negro, on the Darbytown road, last Christmas.
The jury sworn in the case returned a verdict of guilty, and assessed his term in the Penitentiary at five years. Wm. T. Melton, who was equally implicated in the death of Jim Page, was tried on Saturday, but by a different jury, who, after a patient investigation, returned a verdict fining him one cent and costs of Court.
As a matter of course, Bennett's counsel asked for a new trial.
The application was argued at 1 o'clock on Saturday.
