C., and started on the Petersburg train for Richmond. A telegraphic dispatch, I understand, was sent from here informing on him to the authorities in Richmond, who had him arrested on getting out of the cars.--I am told that he was several days in this city, and that he crossed the Potomac in company with Southern ladies and gentlemen, who did not suspect him of being a spy, knowing as they did that he was a Virginian by birth. He informed them, I am told, that he had resigned from the Federal Navy, and was coming to Norfolk to report himself to Commodore French Forest, now in charge of our Navy-Yard.
