A. G. Jenkins (search for this): article 2
Northwestern Virginia. Advices received in this city yesterday give strong hope that the Pierpoint dynasty in Northwestern Virginia will very soon terminate its existence. Our forces are making inroads in that section which it is confidently believed will speedily end in ridding that portion of the State of the disloyalty with which it has heretofore been cursed. A few days since Buckhannon, in Upshur county, was occupied by our forces under Gen. A. G. Jenkins, late member of Congress from the Kanawha district, and it is thought that ere this he has possession of Grafton, the junction of the Baltimore and Ohio and Northwestern Virginia railroads. As Gen. J. advanced the loyal people of the country were flocking to his standard by hundreds, and it was expected that in a brief period of time he would have a force sufficient to wipe out the remains of Federalism in the West.

as discharged the circumstances justifying a little indignation on his part. --Wm. H. Murphy professing to be Captain of company F, 15th Louisiana regiment, and John Dwyer, were brought to the bar and required to answer for swindling a verdant citizen of Halifax, named John C. Gholson, out of $1,080, $500 of which he was lucky enough to recover. Gholson testified that he could neither read or write, and that arriving in town in search of a substitute, two friends of his, named Bradley and Taliaferro, undertook very kindly to put him through all right. Dwyer was procured as a substitute, and agreed to serve for $1,200, and was paid $1,080 of the amount. By one of those fortuitous circumstances which can only happen under a similar state of affairs, "Captain" Murphy appeared and announced his readiness to accept Dwyer into his company. Certain papers were made out by the obliging "Captain," Dwyer received the $1,080, and the anxious searcher after a substitute left them waiting for
e a portion of the funds. In order to allow Linton time to get the parties together that he says were conversant with the circumstances attending the affair, the examination was postponed till Wednesday. --Richard, slave of Margaret Young, found by the watchmen in the street acting disorderly, and who had no pass, was ordered five lashes — Sam, slave of Joseph Jackson, found without a pass, was discharged.--So was Artemus Moore, a Chesterfield free negro, found without his register — Button Allen, for stealing a shirt worth $5 from A. S. Shafer, and coat worth $25, and pocket handkerchief worth $2.50, from R. B. Epstin, was sent before the Hustings Court.--Frances Taylor, arrested for disorderly conduct in the street and drunkenness, was required to give security for her good behavior.--John Cadigan, arrested for cutting John Finney in the shoulder several times with a knife, on 17th street, Saturday night, was discharged the circumstances justifying a little indignation on his part.

Certain papers were made out by the obliging "Captain," Dwyer received the $1,080, and the anxious searcher after a substitute left them waiting for him to return with the balance of the money, which he was to procure from Colonel Barksdale. On seeing the papers made out by Murphy, Col. B. pronounced them worthless; whereupon Gholson hurried back to try and recover his funds. He did not find Dwyer or Murphy till next day, and then succeeded only by the aid of an officer Gholson got $400 of his money from a man with whom Dwyer had deposited it, and $100 from "a lady" with whom he had left it. The balance Dwyer said he had either lost in the street, spent, or paid away. The Mayor said it was either a conspiracy to

wardrobe, and stealing $200 in C. S. Treasury notes and $30 in specie, belonging to George Annaker, a soldier in the army. It appeared from Mrs. Annaker's testimony that Linton, who had been stopping at her house during the absence of her son, had taken advantage of her temporary absence from home, and broke open the wardrobe with a hatchet, thus placing himself in possession of the funds, a part of which he used for several mornings after the operation in procuring bottles of whiskey. Officer Kelley found on the person of Linton about $40 in notes and $10 in silver. The prisoner acknowledged to getting drunk, but seemed disposed to repudiate the allegation that he had surreptitiously possessed himself of the money, intimating that the job had been performed by some occasional visitors at Mrs. Annaker's, and that it was his well- known kindness of heart that induced him to step forward and save a portion of the funds.
