Charged with horse stealing.
--Jas Clarke and James Miller, two young men dressed in Confederate uniforms, were arrested a few days since and carried before the Mayor of this city on the charge of stealing two horses from some persons unknown.
The accused denied the charge, and said that the animals had been loaned them by it Court of Henrico, Judge Gregory presiding.
Mr. King, the owner of the horses stolen was present at the examination and denied that he loaned them to Clark and Miller.
He said they were hanging about his premises during the whole of the day on which they were stolen, but that late in the evening they suddenly left.
That night d he heard nothing of them till a few days afterwards, when he was informed that they were found in possession of the prisoners, who claimed them as their property.
Mr. K. was fully satisfied that the horses claimed by the accused as belonging to them were his property.--Miller has already been once convicted of horse stealing.
