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.

ers. About ten days since defendant was carried before C. S Commissioner Watson, and by him discharged, because the papers then produced did not make out a case on which he could be hold for trial. Among the papers were two bogus discharges, one for himself and another for Charles Tankersley, a member also of Shafer's company.--He was therefore re-arrested and brought before the Mayor to be examined for the last-named offence. Mr. P. H. Aylett appeared on behalf of the Government, and Messrs. Crane and Glimer for Wyvill. Counsel for defence contended that the discharge by Commissioner Watson, he being the examining and committing magistrate of the C. S. District Court, was final. No State law comprehended a case of the kind. A party arrested one day for stabbing and discharged by competent authority was not liable next day to arrest for murder, though the wounded man die in the meantime. The offence of Wyvill was not against an individual, but against the Government. Mr. Aylet

0 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 appeared as counsel for Bowhart, who was prosecuted by Colonel Burfoot, Commonwealth's Attorney for the county. The examination resulted in the committal of the prisoner, for final trial before the Circuit Court. The prisoner established a fine character by a number of witnesses, but the Court taking into consideration the fact that none of them had known him over three weeks, disregarded their evidence.
