Armstrong (search for this): article 2
ch it appeared that the House had receded from many of its amendments, and the Senate had acted likewise. The report of the committee was adopted without opposition, and Mr. Randolph was appointed to communicate the result to the House. Mr. Armstrong offered a resolution that a committee of seven be appointed to consider and report whether any measures can be adopted by the General Assembly to improve the currency. The resolution was agreed to, and the Chair appointed Messrs. Armstrong, Messrs. Armstrong, Marshall, Lewis, Nash, Hall, Quesenberry, and Bruce. Mr. Lewis offered the following resolution, which was referred to the same committee: Resolved, That the select committee on the subject of currency inquire into the expediency of authorizing a loan by the Commonwealth of Virginia to the Confederate Government of $40,000,000, to bear an interest of 6 per cent. per annum, payable semi-annually; and that they inquire also as to the most expedient mode of raising that sum. A bill
creant. The Yankees are so deficient in good material for officers that they readily pick up our renegades to fashion them out of. We have no fears from Thomas. Arnold never did anything after he had sold himself to the British, nor is there any cause to believe that Thomas will be more successful. We hold him to be much worse than Arnold. Arnold was a Yankee, to whom it was perfectly natural to sell himself and his country for gold. Dr. Johnson, we believe it was, who said the Devil was the first rebel. He might have added that Judas Iscariot was the first Yankee. But there is something horribly unnatural in a Virginia-born man turning against his Arnold was a Yankee, to whom it was perfectly natural to sell himself and his country for gold. Dr. Johnson, we believe it was, who said the Devil was the first rebel. He might have added that Judas Iscariot was the first Yankee. But there is something horribly unnatural in a Virginia-born man turning against his country for gold. At the same time that Thomas advances against Bragg, we are told by the Yankee papers, there is to be a general advance everywhere. Grant or somebody else is to advance against Johnston, and Meade is to advance against Lee. Never, according to their veracious organs, was the prospect of crushing the rebelli
Bacon, of good quality, is becoming scarce in this market, and readily sells for $2.50 per pound. If the farmers in the country would send in their surplus stock now they would greatly relieve the wants of the community.
Thomas W. Ballon (search for this): article 18
Qualified. --Mr. Thomas W. Ballon, the newly-elected Clerk for the Circuit Court of Henrico county, appeared before Judge Gregory yesterday, gave the required security, took the necessary oath, and entered upon the discharge of his duties.
place last Sunday night. This being one of the most interesting ceremonies of the Church, a large concourse assembled to witness it. In the crowd were several ministers of the Hanover Presbytery. The sermon on the occasion was preached by Rev. Dr. Read, of the United Presbyterian Church, and was highly interesting and instructive. His theme was the "Heavenly Rest," and he handled it with marked ability. At the conclusion of the sermon Rev. Mr. Converse, assistant editor of the Christian Observer, and Moderator of the Presbytery, propounded the usual questions to the new pastor and his congregation. He was followed by Rev. Mr. Fletcher, of the Duval Street Church, in a charge to the pastor, and Rev. John D. Thomas, chaplain at battery No. 4, delivered the charge to the people. The exercises of the evening closed with a prayer by Rev. Mr. Bartlett, of South Carolina. Altogether, the occasion was a solemn and impressive one, and will long be remembered by those who witnessed it.
William S. Basford (search for this): article 6
Henrico Circuit Court. --Judge Gregory, of the Henrico Circuit Court, commenced his fall term yesterday. The Court met at 11 o'clock, and at 12 o'clock the Judge delivered an able and impressive charge to the Grand Jury. At 3 o'clock the Grand Jury returned true bills in the following felony cases: Wm. Thomas Breeden — housebreaking and larceny. Trial set for Wednesday. Topley F. Irby — robbery. Trial set for Friday. Jacob Freyfogle — murder of Geo. Leathers. Trial set for Thursday. Wm. S. Basford — murder of Dr. Curry.--Trial set for Friday. The Court then adjourned till 11 o'clock this mo
John Roy Baylor (search for this): article 3
A noble example. It is pleasing to record instances of liberality and generosity at a period when the greed of gain and the spirit of extortion seem to have seized upon so large a portion of the community. We learn that Dr. John Roy Baylor, of Caroline, upon being requested to sell products of his farm to a committee of citizens upon more than Government prices, emphatically declined to receive more than those prices. The same gentleman has supplied the Government with provisions sufficient for the support of an entire regiment, and has given access to his granary, free of all price, to suffering soldiers and poor of his neighborhood. All honor to this true Virginia gentleman, "one of the olden time." Would that there were more like him! Would that his example might kindle a flame of generous emulation in the hearts of all the agriculturists of the country!
ich are small ones and can be rebuilt in a few weeks. We learn from Mr. Minor, the agent of the road at this place, that the cars will run here again in the course of two or three weeks. On the retreat of the enemy from Bristol back towards Blountville and Zollicoffer, they were followed by Cols. Bottles and Witcher, who harassed them considerably. On Monday last they charged a company two miles from Zollicoffer, and captured 27 of their number and wounded some. In this engagement Col. Bonles was severely wounded. We learn this morning that he is better, and it is thought will recover. On the same day Capt. or Lieut. Fitzgerald, assisted by our gallant friend, Lieut. O. C. King, with seven privates, charged a company of near 200, in the neighborhood of Banghman's Ford, and captured four of their number, killing some three, also-- then made his escape by cutting his way through them with his sabre.

Cols. Bottles's and Witcher's commands have captured, since the retreat of the enemy from Col. Preston's, six miles above here, some 40 or 50 of the invaders. Among them we may mention one of the murderers of Lieut. Tipton, one deserter from the 24th Virg
Robert Boyce (search for this): article 15
In for a benefit. --George Turner, a young man, charged with stealing one coat, one watch, two breastpins, and one gold key, of Robert Boyce, was before the Mayor yesterday for examination. The evidence was so conclusive against the accused that he was remanded for a further hearing before a called Court to be held next Saturday.
