U. S. CIRCUIT CoURT-JUDeE HALYBUR-
TON presiding.-The case of Stovall, charged
with robbing the mail, was submitted to the jury
Friday evening; but they could not agree, and
were placed in custody of the Marshal. Satur-
day morning, however, they finally agreed upon
verdict, aud upon coming into Court announced
that they found the prisoner guilty. The offence
of which Stovall stands convicted subjects him to
confinement in the Penitentiary for not more
than twenty nor less than ten years. As he is
ali eady far advanced in life-being about sixty
five years of age-the minimum named will
probably cover the period of his earthly exis-
tence.
The evidence of his guilt was sipgularly clear
and unquestionable. Of this the jury were
from the first satisfied; but some doubt existing
in the minds of one or two of the jurors to
the genuneness of the 500 note puroined from
one of the letters, they refused to concur in a
verdict until thoroughly satisfied on this point.
This question was speedily solved by the money
changers or Brokers of this city, several of who m
concnrred in the opinion that the note was gen.
uine.
