murder was committed brother (deaf and dumo)

KIDNAPPER ARRESTED.

On Sunday morning last, an individual calling
himself Williams, took passage in The North
ern cars Tor Fredericksburg. Soon after getting
in, he (Williams) informed Captain Darracolt
that ne wished him TO stop some ten miles from
The city and take in TWO negroes, which he stated

where they would be on the road, but he wanted
the Captain 10 keep a look out for them-a while
man, he said, would be with them. His (Wil-
liams) appearance, conversation and move
mcn.s, attracted the attention OF Capt. Darracolt,
and he kept strict watch Tor The negroes and
white man; but, on reaching the place designat-
ed, they had not arrivcd-and the cars went on
10 the Junction, where Captain DaHacolt gol out
and proceeded to look Tor The negroes. They
were soon found and taken into custody; but The
white man, whose name is believed to be Allen,
ESCAPED in the woods. Capt. Darracott brought
The negroes back 10 this city on Sunday night, and
endeayored to give notice through The Telegraph
10 an agent in Fredericksburg 10 have Williams
arrested; but the operator at Fredericksburg not
being in place, the effort proved Intellectual on
that night. Early on Monday morning, how
ever the wires were again put in MOTION
when the answer was returned, that Captain
William Williamson (who assisted in arrest
ing the negroes at The Junction) had sent a
hand car up 10 Fredericksburg with The
news, which had led 10 the arres! oil The kidnap

Perry from The BAR and this morning about $50

Ted, and no business at all doing, not single

to relieve The public mind from uneasiness in re-

the National ln,eigencer supposed, nor is he in
any further danger of il. We learn from his bro,
lher, DR.. Frederick May, that it may be some
time before the wound will be healed yet that he
has every reason to believe The arm will be saved,
and lis usefulness in some degree preserved. We
have now before us he ounce ball which inflicted
The wound, and arc surprised 10 find the bones Of
a mans arm could have afforded resistance
enough to falien ii as it is. May Lieut.. May

We commend 10 the attention OF our readers
the following article from the New Orleans South
erner, of Monday, July 18th. The prophesylng
"croakers," who have invariably declared that
our army in every contest was 10 be cut 10 pieces,
will, we think, also be mistaken in their predic-
lions as TO the fate of Gen. Scouts army on its
march to the city OF Mexico The Southerner
says:
sWe have received no further news from the
scat of war OF any importance concerning the
movements Of Gen. Scott. BY The last accounts
he was still al Puebla, but there are rumors that
he took up his line otmarch on the Both ult. But
his reinforcemenis could not have reached him
By that time. There is no occasion for any
gloomy prophesy as 10 The result OF his march
upon The capital. The former successes of our
troops, where there was every reason 10 believe
tina, they would be utterly overwhelmed give
sufficient ground TO believe that body Of men
like those under Scott could not be defeated by
any assignable number of Mexicans.
THE army is in beautiful and healthy re-
gion-nerved TO great deeds by The remembrance
Of The chivalry oil their fathers and that Of their
conlemporari -inspiri,ed by series OF extra.
ordinary victories, and by The glory OF their coun.
try. To think Of their defeat before Mexico,
away in The interior Of the country and their re-
treat cut off by the swaims OF guerillas lha, would
arise, is 10 think OF digging grave for fifteen
thousand ct The finest troops in the world among
a hostile people, The most cowaIdly and inefTec-
live in the world"
