COL. MOsBY. THE PARTIZAE CHIEFTAIH,
IN LYNCHBURG-QUITE STIR.
Considerable stir waI created in Lynchburg
Wednesday By the report that Col. Mosby, the
crle III ated p.rtizan chieftain, was in LyLchburg.
Various rumors were alost as to the cause Of the
appearance, but the following, the Republican be-
lieves to be the facts of the case
Some days since Col. Mosbys brother came to
Captain Swank, Provost Marshal Of this citg, TO
inquire if Mosby would be paroled on coming in
and surrsnderlng to the su hOrIties. Captain
Swank replied that he wOud make inquiries
upon the subject and give him an answer in
few days. Day before yesterday, he gain
called 70 see the Marshal upon the subject
and was told that Colonel MOsDy would be pa
rolled if he would come in and give himself,
up. In accordance with this information, Mosby
came into Lynchburg yesterd W and applied at
the Provost Marsha's office for n parole. Capt,
Gurnett happened to be attending 10 tho duties
of the Office at the time, and not being aware OF
the arrangements, sent to Colonel Duncan for ia
structions He was Immediately ordered not TO
parole Col. Mosby until further orders from Col.
u. In the meantime despatch vas received
from Richmond, and Mosby was ordered to leave
town Immediately while the Provost Guard were
instructed 10 see that he did so without mclssta'
ton or hindrance The despatch Is generally
supposed TO have been order for his arrest proba
bly, under Misrepresentation Of the lacts-and
as he had come here under an Implied safeguard
from the military authorities, Il ey felt bound in
honor not TO take advantage OF the act.
