Arrest of R. D'orsay Ogden. --Very much to the surprise of every one present, R. D'Orsay Ogden, the late manager of the Richmond Theatre, who escaped from this city some weeks since, was brought in to the chief of police last night about half-past 8 o'clock. He was arrested in the county of King George, at the house of Mr. Fielding Lewis, where he had been invited to dine.

Arnold, charged with stealing a lot of chloroform, calomel, quinine, and other medicines, belonging to the Confederate Government.--Arnold hails from King George county, Virginia, is young and respectable in appearance, and has once been wounded in the service, but at the present time claims to be detailed for light duty. The medicines which he is accused of stealing were discovered in the store of Mr. C. M. Bity.--Mr. Berrian testified that Arnold came to his store about a month since, in open day, and sold him the medicines which were claimed as belonging to the Government. At the time he bought them the prisoner informed him that he was from King George county, and that the articles he had sold belonged to a blockade-runner from that county, who had recently brought them from Baltimore. Having frequently bought medicines put up in similar bottles, and in precisely the same style, both before the

rebeldom. The correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer telegraphs the following: Mrs. ex-Senator Foote is still at Willard's, and has been called upon by many of her old friends. From her account, it appears that, a few days before Christmas, Mrs. Foote procured a passport to bring her through the rebel lines, that she might come to Washington, and proceed thence to Nashville, to look after her husband's property. Under the pretence of visiting some of her friends in King George county, Mr. Foote accompanied her. They went to Hanover, about twenty miles north of Richmond, on the cars, and there procured a carriage and driver. They met with no difficulty until they had reached the Rappahannock river, near Fredericksburg, where there being no bridge on which they could cross, they went down the river several miles; but the rebels in charge of the ferry refused to pass them over, notwithstanding Mrs. Foote's passport, they assigning as a reason that the river was so s
