ALL MIsTAKE.-Yesterday evening Capt.
HartZ, of the Quartermaster's Department,
with friend, took ride in his private car
riage, and stopped near the Metropolitan Hotel,
leaving his buggy and horse in charge of his
servant. Near the same place, Mr.. g. L.
Gheen, Of the Marshall House, Alexandria,
had stopped with a horse and buggy very
closely resembling that of the Captain, and left
II In charge OF young man from Cooks livery
stables. Capt HartZ and his friend returned as
they supposed to their buggy, but missed it,
and took possession of Mr.. Gheen's. The
young man went TO Mr.. g., and informed him
tnat an officer was about taking his buggy.
Mr.. q. came out and protested; but the Captain,
satisfied that lie had his own, persisted; and
MI q. called upon the police to arrest him,
Which was done, and the parties, followed by
a crowd, went TO Justice DoLn's office. Sew
eral witnesses We're willing TO testify that it
was the Captains horse and buggy, so close
was the resemblance, and the two claimants
were becoming very much excited; but Capt.
HartZ went out to the horse and looked for the
m-rks by which he could prove his animal,
and not finding the most prominent one imme-
dlately acknowledged tie mistake and the mat
Ter was satisfactorily cleared M, on it being
aseertalned that Capt. Hartzs servant had gone
away with his buggy, and this led TO the mis-
take, the only buggy there being Mr.. Ghcen's.
