Superior Court for this coanty.
sALkXAyNDER LITHG OW,SCISE.
The trial Of A. Lishgow Tor embez
zling ihe funds of the Farmers Bank
has again called the attention Of the
criminal court for Henrico CountY.-
Various efforts were made during the
term to impanuei ii jury to try him; but
they we're Inc ffeciuAi.--On Wednesday
the last attempt was made to no pur-
pose.
bis indefatisabe counsel (Gen. Tay-
Tor of NorfOlk) made motion 10 ouash
all the indictments against him Except
two) upon the ground embraced By the
following clause of the Law of the
General Assembly: "Every person who
shall be charged with such crime, who
shall not be indicted before, or at, the
I'd term after be shall have been com
mitted, unless the attendance Of the
witness against him appears to have
been prevented by himself, shall be dis-
charged from his imprisonment, if hs
be detained for that cause only and if
he be not tried at or before the 3D. term
after his examination before the JUST
ces, he shalt be forerer DISCHARGED Of
the crime; unless such failure proceed
from any continuance, granted on the
motion of the prisoner, or from the ina.
billy Of Tie jury to agree on their TER
dict"
Now, this being the third term, and
ii being impossible to obtain a jury and
therefore TO try him at this Term, all
the charges on which he had mt hith-
erto been put on his trial, were set a.
side by The operation Of this section,
and the indictment qUas he'd.
The two OILY on which he had been
tried, and upon which the Jury had
been unable to agree at previous terms
OF the court had survived. These re.
lated TO two checks on the Bank, which
he had been charged with embezzlipg.
A motion was new made by bis conn
sci to change the Venue upon these 2
indictments and the court according
~ changed it TO The county Of Chester.

A correspondent Of ours falls into
an amusing mistake. Observing in
the Charleston papers notice that a
steam vessel was about to depart from
that port with a cargo, from Hamburg,
he naturally concluded the she was to
make commercial voyage to the Eu.
ropean Hamburg, and sends US, accor-
diOSly, some warm Communications of
the enterprise Of the Charleston mer,
chants; when, in ruth, the steam boat
was des;ined only to village so sailed
on the Savannah river. We mention the
circumstance TO show the folly, so pre-
valent throughout the couatry, of nick
naming our towns and villages after e.
very place, ancient aud modern, in Eu
rope, Asia, and Africa. The follow.
ing is the paragraph Of the Charleston
paper, which misaed our Correspon.
dent:
The steam boat Commerce, Lubbock,
was to have star ted yesterday at12 -.
