the throat of a hog, the property of Margaret, slave of Travis Lassiter. A witness saw Lewis attempt two or three times to drive the hog off the lot, designing, no doubt, to steal her; but failing to accomplish his object, he seized on to her and plunged a long shoemaker's knife into her throat. The hog had a litter of pigs only a few days old, which, by the loss of their mother, will probably be lost. Lewis was ordered to be whipped to the extent of the law. Washington, slave of John Williamson, was ordered thirty lashes for stealing nine pounds of fresh butter, belonging to Mrs Sarah E Hatcher, of Goochland. The butter had been sent by a servant to the Second Market for sale, and was stolen from his cart while the servant was waiting on customers. A fine was imposed upon Wm Lambert for driving a wagon over the sidewalk. An unlawful assembly of nine negroes, found in the kitchen of John R Tucker, on Thursday night, were punished with a limited number of stripes.
