e the dissolution. The case, so far as it implicated Dubois in a violation of the criminal law, was dismissed. Manchester Court, Nov. 6. --A Court of Examination, consisting of three magistrates, convened on Wednesday, in the Town Hall of Manchester, for the examination of one John Bowhart, a member of Rodgers's cavalry company, now stationed there, who was charged with stealing a watch worth $200 from a citizen of the town-named Lee Finney. The testimony showed that Bowhart met Finney in a acquestered place in Manchester, and pretending to believe that he was drunk, he very coolly put his hand into Finney's pocket, took thence his watch, which he informed him he would return when he got sober. Finney immediately got out a warrant and proceeded to the camp of the cavalry company; but though he found Bowhart, he could discover no traces of his watch. The arrest and examination of the prisoner on the charge of grand larceny followed as above recited. Captain Rodgers appeare

is master, got 20 lashes. Willie Grace was brought up on the rather serious charge of "stealing" a horse, the property of Wm. J. Marshall. The case was dismissed, it being proved that Grace had only rode the horse from the York River Depot up town, and that after getting there he had placed the animal at Ruskell's stable. James Pearson was committed for indictment for misdemeanor by the Hustings Court Grand Jury, for an assault committed by him on Arthur Sadler, Tuesday night, at Rocketts. Warren Dubois was examined on a charge preferred by A. O. Brummell that he had taken and sold forty-two boxes of tobacco belonging to him without authority. By the testimony of Mr. Brummell, it appeared that they had been partners, but had dissolved, and the transaction complained of occurred after that. Other witnesses testified that Dubois appeared to have as much interest after as before the dissolution. The case, so far as it implicated Dubois in a violation of the criminal la

t provided for by Confederate statute law, was cognizable by State law — that of Virginia and the Confederacy were concurrent. The Mayor said he did not recognize Commissioner Watson as an examining court. In his opinion, he could not deprive the State of jurisdiction over offences against the law of Virginia. Should an offence be committed against the State law, the discharge of an offender by Court Martial would not prevent his arrest by the civil authorities. T. A. Staples, jailor of Henrico, sworn: Was well acquainted with Wyvill's handwriting. He wrote for several months in the County Clerk's office. Tankersley's discharge, dated May 4,'61, was in Wyvill's handwriting, he thought Gen. Winder's name is certainly a forgery. Wyvill's own discharge, dated November 20, '61, is filed up and signed in his own handwriting. G. W. Thomas, Detective, sworn: Received instructions to arrest these parties; did so. Found in W.'s trunk the papers produced.--W. was an officer in a company

Thomas, Detective, sworn: Received instructions to arrest these parties; did so. Found in W.'s trunk the papers produced.--W. was an officer in a company stationed at Belle Isle for guard duty. Tankersley boarded at the Powhatan House. Made the arrests August 14th. Never saw the discharges before they were found in the trunk. Captain Alexander sworn: Ordered the arrest. The papers found being taken to Gen. Winder, he pronounced them forgeries. His Honor remarked that the question presented was one of importance, and would ultimately resolve itself into a consideration of the question whether the forged papers were embraced in the Act of General Assembly o

Sad death of a soldier --Brutal Conduct of Ambulances Drivers.--The Rockingham Register chronicles the arrival of a dead soldier there as follows: The case to which we refer is that of Henry Wagoner, a member of Company F, North Carolina Volunteers, who died in an ambulance near Harrisonburg on Sunday night or Monday morning last. This poor fellow, we have learned, died from the neglect; or something worse, of the man or men in whose care he was placed. He is thought to have perished from cold, whilst the man who drove the ambulance was too much under the influence of strong drink to hear or heed his cries for relief.--Sabbath night, our readers in this part of the Valley will remember, was exceedingly inclement, a cold rain falling, and keen autumnal winds blowing, so that any one much exposed would necessarily suffer. Whether this poor soldier had been wounded, or whether he was suffering from disease, we have not learned; but, at all events, he was unable to help him

It may not be generally known, but it is a fact that will be interesting to some readers, that the $1 and $2 bills of the Confederate States--those which are embellished with badly engraved likenesses of Secretary Benjamin, and Mrs. Governor Pickens of South Carolina--are all signed by young ladies, of whom many are beautiful and accomplished girls, ornaments of the society of the Capital.
