works in Virginia. He was a man of fine talents, and a very bold and ambitions one. He wrote well, and a great deal, for the press, on disputed questions of engineering, and published an abstruse book on his science. Among his many schemes, advocated with great plausibility was the proposition for a ship canal and basin at this place, about the year 1835. The canal to be cut from the foot of the falls across the Falls Plantation, to Warwick bar; the dam to be built across the river, about Mayo's bridge. This proposition was discussed so plausibly by him that some of the wisest and most sagacious men of the city approved it, including Dr. Brockenbrough, Richard Anderson, the Gwathmeys, and others, men of controlling influence. But the project did not long survive — a little reflection caused its abandonment, we believe, by all but the gentleman who proposed it.

McCallbeing in advance of his party, was brought to a stand by a private in the 47th regiment, who drew his gun upon him and demanded his surrender. His sword was received by Major Mayo.

About 9 o'clock the brigade of Gen. Anderson was advanced to the front and drawn up in line of battle. Several volleys were fired into the woods where the enemy had taken shelter, which had the effect to disperse them, and the fight closed for the evening. During the engagement Gen. Anderson was knocked from his horse by the fragment of a shell striking him on the side of the head. He was missed after the fight was ended, and it was feared that h

They found on the table eight sheets, already printed, of 10's. Louis then says to George, "Here is money enough." He replied, "Hush your mouth." They then put the $100 plate on the form and struck off $800 for Louis and a like number for George. Louis said again, "Here is money enough," but Elam again struck off a number more. They left and went towards Mayo's bridge, where, going to a shop kept by an acquaintance of Louis's, they knocked and a window was opened and a female asked who was there. A satisfactory reply was elicited, the door was opened, and the proprietor of the shop gave Elam a good note from which to counterfeit the signatures on those he had. The proprietor then took out a ten dollar note and passed it to show Louis how easy it could be done. Louis afterwards passed a great deal, and had often gone into stores and suggested tha

as arraigned on the charge of stealing a truck and contents, the property of Capt. James G. Hawthorn. It appeared by the evidence of Francis Craven, watchman at the Danville Railroad Depot, that Jones and one or more other foot-pass waylaid an old negro named Billy, belong to B. J. Sizer, of Manchester, as he was bringing the trunk to Richmond, about 3½ o'clock yesterday morning. The old darkey gave the alarm, and when Craven arrived at the spot he found Jones with the trunk nearly opposite Mayo's new tobacco warehouse. He gave chase, and Jones, flourishing a bludgeon with which he had been beating the negro, retreated into the depot yard. He was clamped by Craven and givan in charge of the watch Mr. Sizer identified the trunk, having marked it at his tavern, at the request of Capt. H., who was going South.
