Daring Exploit. --Yesterday morning a private in a Louisiana company, named Wm. Riley, for some days since on securing duty on the Peninsula, within the Yankee lines, reached this city, having in charge a servant named Henderson, the property of Mr. John B. Vaden, who had run off to the Abolitionists, had been in service at Yorktown, and was then accompanying the Yankees in the direction of Richmond. Henderson, with other negroes, was in the rear with a number of wagons, when Riley and hwn, and was then accompanying the Yankees in the direction of Richmond. Henderson, with other negroes, was in the rear with a number of wagons, when Riley and his five associates fired on them, stampeded the mules, made them break the vehicles, and captured this negro, for whom a large reward had been offered. The daring "bushwhackers" had some desperate fighting and narrow escapes in working their way to camp, but they all got through safely, giving the officials much valuable information.
