W.
DROWNED Her CHLD--A negro woman
belonging to Mr.. James Thornton, Of Kappa
hammock County, was committed TO jail en-
Monday last charged with drowning her
child She confesses the crime, but says she
intended to drown herself also, and jumped
10 the river with the child in her arms, but
floated to the bank. Thinking her clothes
the cause of her not sinking, she undress-
ed and made second attempt, when she
again hoated to the bank. She says she re-
NAMED in the woods five or six days III this
condition. living principally upon WhOrte-
berries. She was found by some boys, when
clothing was procured. and she was sent 10
this place and confined in Jail. She has
since, however, been taken to Rippahannock

BADLY BuRNED.--A negro girl, the pro-
perty OF Dr. Il. Emmett Robinson, was assist
ing the cook in getting dinner, whea her
clothes caught on fire, and rushirg into the
Dir, increased the l,mes. She would have
been burned TO a crisp but for the timely in-
reference of Mr., ID. Raglaud, who succeeded
in extinguishing the flames, nor, however,
until the girl was seriously, burnt. and her
recovery rendered very doubtful. PcterSCury

PROBABLE MuRDER-The body Of an un-
known negro man was found floating in the
Appomattox river yesterday afternoon, by
Mr. Mills, of the city watch. There is but
little doubt that the negro was murdered, as
his forehead was badly cut, and his face
bruised. When drawn to the shore the
wounds bled quite freely, and the body had
evidently been in the water not over n hours.
