Warning to Trespassers.

--Great and continuous complaints are made by the marketmen that their carts are stopped on the Mechanicsville turnpike at night and robbed of their loads. The military authorities have been appealed to for protection, and the complainants have been advised to use powder and buckshot as a preventive. We have seen one reliable man who has determined to take this advice, and others will no doubt follow it. Men will protect their property at any cost, and the highwaymen will be killed if they persist in their depredations.
