THE CITY.

Rcs8GRT AND OUTRAGE held perfect carniya! on
Wednesday aignt. in the locality known as the
Valley, near the intersection of Poplar and 18th
streets, retired section, and we believe not
pat17leG BY any Of the ovost guards. At about
sunset, six or eight young men, several Of them
sporting blue sack coats to give them the appear
aace OF Federal soldiers, made raid down the
Valley, O5erhauliug every white and colored man
they met, presenting pistols at their heads, de-
usu5iag their watches and money, and passing on
20 the aeEt victim. They accoSted colored youth,
barber in the establishment under the Ballard
House, put up two young howitzers at his head,
and tool, from him fourteen dollars in Federal cur
rency-all lac had, They also took his hat, made
him take OF his coat, which they presen ted him
again, and attempted to remove his shoes fro m his
feet. They then dismissed him with the assertion
that he vas damned Niger aud that they had
great mind to kill him anyhow. All this occurred
before it was yet dark, within few feet of
the Victims dwelling. Passing on down they
caught another colored man who was lean.
ing over his yard railing, and attempted
20 pull him over the fence by main force at the
same time searching his person for watch, money,
and yaiuables. A little further on, the first vic
Tins heard the cry of third-white man-whom
the thieves had fallen upon. Whether he was
robbed or not, our informant could not say but his
shouts OF ''murdor, " swatch" "fre," rang up and
down the Valley. Several men started to his res
c.e but the desperadoes were too strong for them.
doS many more were robbed, we know not. Sew
eral days ago, some of the same class of thieves
entered, in broad daylight, the house of colcred
woman in the Valley, and robbed the same Of specie,
&c. The marauderS are said to be some Of the es
capped penitentary gang, and their victims are gen.
orally defenceess colored people. We respectfully
submit this statement of facts to the military au
:ho.ties, and ask, in the of the residents of
the tgoubied district, that night patrol ample for
-1Ile;r protection, be furnished.

was brought to Manchester it would attract many
merchants 10 establish themselves there and create
a ompetitfI for the trade, which was then in few
hands. So tie short-sighted Scotchman therefore
retained Patrick Henry, with large fee, to oppose
the adoption of the proposed route OF the Canal,
and If he did not show his judgment in opposing
the improvement, he did in the selection Of hi,
counsel for Henry succeeded in diverting the
Canal to the Richmond side, and his client lived to
see the folly of his selfish policy. From that timC :,
Manchester fell into decline, but was improving
in business and trade at the outbreak of the war;.
II now contains two extensive cotton mills, two
great -four mills, foundry or two, several machine
shops, several large tobacco factories, paper mill
&C.. and the town, in its corporate capacity, hay-
ing right to half the water power of James River,
can furnish an additional number of mill sites. It
is historical fact that General Washington the
first to suggest the opening of the navigation Of
both the James and Potomac rivers above tide
water, and the connection, if practicable, of the
James and Kanawha, and also the construction Of
the Dismal Swamp Canal.
In 1884 the James River Navigation Company
was Chartered with capital limited to elOO, 600.
On the Goth October, 1885, the first meeting OF
stockholders was held and their subscriptions were
ascertaned to amount to SOS, 900. Gen. Washing.
ton was elected President, and Messrs. John Har-
ris, David Ross, William Cabell and Edmund Ran
dolph Directors. In 1890 the canal was opened
from Westham to landing called Broad Rock and
on the 29th December, 1889, the Legislature was
invited to take trip up the canal and through the
locks. In 1895 the canal entered the city, and in
November, 1900, the water was first let into the
basin on trial.
The canal has suffered serious damage during the
war; at one time and another, but peace in Virginia
will speedily restore this broken artery of trade
and prosperity and send the life blood OF commerce
pulsating through the land again.
