Portrait of Hartbut.

--The spy, Wm. H. Hurlbut, whose unsuccessful attempt to get released from the clutches of the law in this city is noticed elsewhere is sketched by Wm. S. Bassford ‘"as a bold, audacious man, a bitter enemy of the South and her institutions, an Abolition writer known to the North and to Europe for the past twelve years, and a wholesale slanderer of Southern men. In person and manners, he has all the appearance of a gentleman. He is a fine scholar, a man of very superior talents and accomplishments, and of very insinuating address — all of which, taken into consideration, makes him far more dangerous than an ordinary man would be."’

It is not likely he will be afforded an opportunity to become dangerous for some time to come, as, when he leaves Richmond, he goes to Charleston, S. C.
