ANOTHER CATTLE TREsPAss.-We men,
toned in Saturdays Dispatch that Mr..
John Doherty, of Henrico, had been ar
raigned the day previous before Justice
Wade to show cause why he should not be
fined for allowing his cattle to trespass
upon his neighbours premises. 1t seems
that on the very night of the day upon
which the above case was heard, Mr.. John
Doherty's entire stock, thirteen in num-
Der, bore down all distractions, and enter
ing the fields of Milly Jones, Eliza Harris,
and sundry other neighboring freedmen,
like the locusts of Egypt, literally devour-
ed every green thing. Yesterday the par
ties aggrieved appeared before Justices
Wade and Hendrick, but Mr.. Doherty and
Mrs. Doherty, who had been summoned,
refused to confront their accusers. Mrs.
Doherty was exceedingly irate, and de-
nounced in terms Of great severity all
courts, military and civil, as also every
body in authority, from the commanding
General down to the justices of Henrico
county. She didn't care smithereen for
anybody or anything.
The presiding justices awarded dam
ages and costs in three raornntiva cases of
ten, six, and four dollars. At this rate
Doherty's cattle will prove rather costly,
we imagine.

LOCAL MATTERS.

The PHILLIPS TRAGEDY-MoRE TEsTI-
MoNY.-Since the agitation of the Phillips
tragedy facts and statements concerning
that horrible affair are being developed
almost daily. It is now stated by freed
woman of good repute that about the time
the alleged murder is said to have been
committed white man, accompanied by a
lady, drove up to her house in a buggy,
and desired to know if there was vacant
building in that vicinity which could be
rented. He was told that there was not.
lit may be stated here that just at this
locality there are quite number of small
shanties, which were built during the war
by Confederate soldiers, but they are now
all occupied, and chiefly by freedmen.l
The man then drove off, and halted at
another building directly on the route
to the spot where the body Of the murdered
woman was discovered. Here another
freedwoman heard the lady say: "You
have driven me about through these woods
and bushes long enough for Gods sake
take me to some place where | may find
rest" or words to this effect. These things
throw some light On the bloody affair
which has produced such intense and pain
full excitement in all this section. It re-
mains, however, for the prosecutors in the
Phillips trial to identify the parties seen
in the buggy as the unfortunate lady now
in eternity, and the still more unfortunate
man who yet survives, but with the fear
full suspicion hanging over him that he i'm
brued his hands in the innocent blood Of an
affectionate and confiding wife. God grant
that if innocent he may be enabled to
clear up the wonderful mystery which
now surrounds him.

HORRIBLE Acc1DENT.-About o'clock
yesterday evening Willie Booth, about
nine years of age, jumped on the platform
of the Fredericksburg train as it was back
ing down Broad street. Before he had
ridden many yards he slipped off and fell
under the wheels, which passed over both
of his legs, cutting one of them off at the
knee and the other just above the ankle.
The little fellow was removed to his mo-
theirs residence, on Broad street, and
medical attention given. he died last
night at s o'clock.
The victim of this unfortunate accident
is son of Mr.. William Booth, who was
killed near Fort Gregg, in front of Peters
burg, on the I'd of April, 1865. He was .
member of the Norfolk Light Artillery,
and was noted for his GOODNESS and every
other quality that constituted good SOL
dier.

A CoLoRED Boy SEVERELY INJURED
Yesterday morning colored boy named
Warwick Lomax, about seventeen years
of age, got into difficulty at Mr.. W. H.
Grants factory, on corner of Nineteenth
and Franklin streets, with another colored
boy, name unknown, who, getting mad,
threw a large rock at him. The rock
struck Lomax on the left temple and frac-
tured the skull. The boy then ran of, and
has not been arrested. DR.. Jackson was
called in, and rendered the necessary me-
dical attention. At late hour last evening
the wounded boy was in very critical
condition,

THE OYSTER TAX, AND STEAMERS FOR
COLLECTING THE SAME.-It will be remem-
bered by many Of our readers that at a
recent session of the Virginia Legislature
an act was passed authorizing the procure
ment of three small steamers to be used
in enforcing the collection of the oyster
tax. Plenary powers were conferred upon
the First Auditor, authorizing that officer
to obtain the steamers, appoint the officers,
and do all things else which might be ne
cessary to secure the execution of the law.
Auditor Taylor deemed it best to have
steamers constructed especially adapted
to the purposes in view, and he accord
ingly contracted with Messrs. Joseph r.
Anderson s. Co., of the Tredegar Iron
Works, Richmond. These gentlemen sub
contracted the work to Mr.. William A.
Graves, of Norfolk by whom the steam
ers are now being built, and rapidly ap-
preaching completion. They are On the
ssstays,n near the south bank of the canal
opposite Oregon Hill, and will probably be
ready for their destined element in the
course of three or four weeks. They are
models of taste and tidiness, and will
doubtless answer admirably the object for
which they are intended. The work of
construction is superintended by Mr.. j. l..
Porter, of Portsmouth, one of the most
efficient and skilful naval constructors in
this country.
We made visit to the "ship-yard :"
Yesterday, and were enabled to view the
work so far as it had progressed, and also
to obtain the dimensions. The three will
be precisely the same size, and SO exactly
similar in all other respects that, to use
Sambo's expression, it will be impossible
for the casual observer to tell "tother
from which," The following figures will
furnish a correct idea as to the size OF
these craft Length on deck, IS feet !;
breadth of beam, l3 feet; depth, 51a feet !;
mean draught of water, AZ feet.
They will be propellers, and each is to
be- provided with a beautiful marine en-
CINE. These engines are now in the appro-
priate department of the Tredegar Iron
Works, and nearly completed. They will
have a diameter Of cylinder OF thirteen
feet length of stroke, thirteen feet. The
diameter of the propellers will be five feet,
and the number of blades to each four.
Each steamer will be provided with
comfortable cabin quarters for the inspec-
tor and other O1ncerS, alu naflSo'ou "
experienced Virginia pilots. An inspector,
appointed by the Auditor, will accompany
each steamer, and secure the tax imposed;
It will be seen that the light draught OF
these steamers is such that they will be
able to enter any inlet, cove, creek, or
estuary bordering the rivers and bays OF
Virginia in which oysters are taken.
They will also possess considerable speed,
and be in other respects SO efficient that
the State will in future be enabled to
realize all, or nearly all, of the revenue
to which she is entitled from this prolific
source. That she has been heretofore de-
frauded to a great extent by the ever
active and wide-awake individuals who
hail from beyond the confines of the State
there can be but little doubt.

THE HOPPE CoUNTERTEITING CAsE.-The
case of William A. Hoppe, charged with
counterfeiting an Inspectors tobacco brand,
Chahoon yesterday.
Mr.. William I. Trueman, sworn: For
some time I have been employed by
Hoppe, and am still in his employment.
Keep the books and superintend affairs
generally. Always had entire charge OF
the factory in Hopes absence. Have
kept the books since April Is, 1867. The
books exhibited in evidence arc those |
kept. There were no other books. The
large book contains correct entry of all
the tobacco manufactured at the factory
since I took charge. The statements of
Ben. Allen about the false brands are
incorrect. There has been no shipment to
Cincinnati or St. Louis since I've been at
work at the factory. To my knowledge,
Ben. Allen never had permission to sell
any tobacco.
C. Dunckard, sworn: / have,been in
charge of Hoppe's factory for the Govern
ment since the 29th Of July.
Fred. Banasch was the last witness
sworn. He said he was the deputy collec-
tor of internal revenue for the third dis
trict of Virginia. The shipment made on
April 10th to J. A. P. Close s. Brother,
Cincinnati, as recorded in Hopes book is
correct as compared with the books of the
collector Of internal revenue of this dis
trict.
Here the evidence was closed, and Com
missioner Chahoon decided to continue the
case until to-lIorrow morning, when argu-
ments will be made by Judge j. NJ. Gregory
and Mr.. a. G. Bond, counsel for the ac-
cuSed

ALLEGED HORSE -THIEF.-A colored man
named Duncan Smith appeared before the

Aaron Greasy testified that he had pur-
chased the horse from gentleman in
Fluvanna county, and that about two
weeks ago he had been stolen. On Mon
day he saw the accused on Broad street
with the horse, and had him arrested.
The Mayor sent Duncan to Fluvanna
county for trial.

DEADLY EFFECTS OF STRYCHNINE.-We e
mentioned yesterday that the zebra and
two tapirs attached to Robinson's mena-
gerie, which were killed with strychnine
at Gordonsville, had been sent to Rich
mond to be stuffed. A young physician
of this city who disSected the bodies de-
termined to test the effects of the poison,
and for this purpose procured couple OF
frogs. After disembowelling the zebra he
procured portion of the liquid matter
the entrails contained, and administered a
few drops to the little creatures. The
effect was immediate, and death almost
instantaneous. The frogies turned sud-
denly upon their backs, gave a few con-
vulsive kicks, closed their eyes, and then
all was over with the frogies.

named Andrew Jackson on warrant
charging him with carrying away from the
house of Edward C. Tuck trunk contain
ing four dresses, silver watch, about
seventy dollars, and number of valu-
able papers. 1t appears that jackson car
ried the trunk off about a quarter of a
mile from the house, broke it open, took
the money, and left.

ton before the Hastings Court on the 10th
