Arrest of Latter Day Southern Patriot
man named II. l.. Martin was arrested in
this city on Thursday, on tho order of lnspec-
tor General John IL. Winder, by Detective
Maccubbin, as = suspicious person, and being
carried before the " ar Department, was. after
an examination, conveyed to the county jail
for safe keeping. The party alluded to halls
from Mississippi. ard has been tor long time
Federal office holder. When Lincoln came
into office and thought proper to exact an
oath Of obedience ana fealty from his depend
ants, Martin took the obligation and pay
consequent thereon. Lately change LAS
come over the shirt of his dreams. Some
two weeks since he disappeared from " ash
srgton. The next heard Of him is that no ar
rived in Richmond, and is seeking an office
under the Confederate States Government
Circumstances connected with his exodus from
Washington pointed suspicion towards him,
and ne was arrested on the well-grounded ap-
prehension that he was not a true patriot In
a word, was a camp follower OF what might
he deemed for the time being tho strongest
party.
