Marshall Bradley, a free negro, who has served with the
Lynchburg-Artillery at Alleghany Mountain, performed a piece on his favorite banjo on Saturday night while walking along the street, when he was pounced-upon by a watchman and conducted to the cage.
Bradley was armed with a knife, as negroes generally are when they turn from a campaign.
His banjo, however in his pride; and he was permitted to enliven the gloomy dungeon with a few familiar airs, while warming his toes at the fire in the guard room.
