OUTRAGE AND ROBBERY IN CHEsTERrIELD.-We
understand that squad of Struggling soldiers. Wis
tied the residence Of Mrs. Hatchett IN Chesterfield
county on the line of the Clover Hill railroad one
night last week, aad robbed her OF a large amount
Of money. They represented themselves to he
Yankees, roade home, aud demanded $500 from
her to assist them on their way. This she was
forced TO give, and when she got her roll OF notes
amounting to some $500, to count out the required
sum, one ofthe partyseized and appropriated all.
While this was being done, guard was stationed
at every avenue of the house to prevent both egess
and ingTess. We further learn that after the above
outrage committed some of the party present
ed their pstols.to the head of a negro girl, and
commanded her, at the peril of her life, to tell
where her+mistress specie conce aled Through
fear the servant diyuged the spot OF concealment,
aud the parties were enabled to possess themselves
gold and silver coin to the value of sever al thou
sand dollars in Confederate notes. after which they
retired. This is one of the basest outrages that
have yet been perpetrated in the county of Ches-
terfeld, where the people have suffered much
from stragglers and desc Petersburg Express.
