Having secured four open boats, the

alarm was given Among the captured
were seven negrses. who, with the rest
oI the, prisoners, are expected to reach
Richmond as soon as they can be
brought.
Our informant left the boats on Sun
day morning at Urbanna, on the Kappa

since then they have been run furthernp

Iosipoited--The charge against William ii.
Travis, Of shooting his wife with pistol ON
Monday night, was postponed by the Mayor
till Friday next. on account OF the condition
of Mrs. T., and ia order that further inquiries
might be made into the case. One of ihe
physiciaus in attendance on the wounded
lady testified that she was doing very wen,
and ne entertained no doubt Of her recovery.
Tha counsel for the accused seemed very
anxious that His Honor should go Into a
partial hearing OF ths case, as ne was sails
lied il would be proven altogether M acci-
dent. and he might then claim bail for his
client Till the TINE fixed for the trial. The
Mayor refused to dc, so, however, and re-
nanded Travis back 10 Jail.

arrest Of a T6jyer career Of an ac

LOCAL. M ATT u RS.

Eatpl IhiDm:ag Gea.r-Efief allusioa was
made in our paper yesterday morning Of the
poisoning of several young men, who had
been attending dancing party inihe neigh
berhuod Of the old Fair Grounds, and who bad
imbibed some poisonous drug through the
Iianor which they obtained from neiglibor-
ing grocery. Yesterday We visited one of
the victims Of this unfortunate affair, and
find that though the Facts were at first exass
perated. vet the ease was still ono of most
serious character. Some few nights siace a
party OF gentlemen and ladies deierniinedto
have ivial gathering and dhadassemb!ed
at the house Of friend on Main street, near
the point designated above. for that purpose.
During the evening, a. most young men are
apt to do, one by one would leave the
rouis, where all was pleasure and
were in pursuit Of a deadly poison, visit u
grocery 10 .a!ed on Main street, just before
you reach the Eair Grounds where they
took several drinks of what .pnYparted to be
whiskey. Everything passta OF happily tin
late hour in the evening, when one after
another began to complain Of dreadful nau-
sea at the stomach and dizziness in the head,
and very soon thereafter the dance was slis-
pended and the evenings entertainment
came to an unpleasant end, IS most of the
young men who had paftaken of the poison
ous liquid had been taken to their residences
in an unconscious state. After severe suffer
ing, the most Of them have recovered; but
the deadly effects of the poison consigned
two of them to the grave, and thus left all
other warming that i'll the midst OF life we
are in death. Their names are B. +. Ave
ry and II. L. Burden. Both of. them
were from Alabama, belonged to She
army, and were young men spoken of
highly by all who knew them. The gem
tleman with when we conversed assures us
that he only drank about q halt wine glass
full, and that he discovered q most peculiar
aud revolving taste at the time he swallowed
| it. Although u young man OF robust health,
yet the strength of the poison was so great
that the small portion which he took came
near causing him TO lose his life Ii is sub
.iect which should receive investigation.
There may be others in this city SO reckless
of human life that, for the sake OF making
money, they would also poison their whi3,
key that they might make greater profit on
it, who would probably be deferred from
doing so if the case above cited were
promptly taken in hand, its particulars sifted
to the bot ON, and the parties b!amable
justly punished.

Going at Larys.-Saliy Harding, a negro
woman belonging To Mrs. Ann Wright, was
arraigued yesterday for going about The city
without u proper pass. A citizen plead hard
for her discharge, and proceeded to testify
elaborltcly as To her good character and re-
spectacle standing among those Of her
class; but the Mayor bad n distinct recollec-
tion of her being in his presence before, and
could not agree to her discharge til further
testimony was given in her favor, and there
fore continued the case
