ARREST OF THE NEGRO WHO THREW THE
REGULAR MAIL TRAIN ON THE RICHMOND
AND PETERSBURG RAILROAD OFF THE
TRACK-HE CoNFEssEs HIS GUnT.-Yester-
day morning a negro about eighteen years
about the Richmond and Petersburg Rail
road Company's shops, in Manchester, by
Mr.. Lsughton, the auditor of the company
He Immediately sent for Justice 8. 7. Han
cock, who arrested the boy on the charge of
changing the switch at Temples Crossing,
about FIVE miles from the city, and thereby
throwing the mail train off the track. Ben
stoutly denied his guilt at first, and said
he could prove where he was the day
the act was committed. Justice Han
cock told him he would go with him
if he would tell him where the place
was. He then said it was about four miles
down the road. The officer got hand-car
and went to place where he said he had
been cutting wood, but there was no sign Of
any wood having been cut there for several
days. He then took the boy and walked
through the woods some three or four miles
to see if he could find any person chopping
wood, but did not succeed. On his way
back to the hand-car the boy made volun-
tary confession. He said there was no lock
on the switch, but only a lap-ring, and he
commenced fooling with it, got it out Of
place, and could not get it back again !; and
seeing the train coming, he became fright
ened and ran off. On his way back to town
he asked MIR. Hancock to let him get q
hatchet which he had hid under bush the
day he broke the switch. Mr.. Hancock
sent one Of the hands to the place and
found the hatchet. He was then brought
back to Manchester and carried before JUS
tice Moody, who committed him for trial at
the March term of the County Court.
Ben is o notorious rascal, and well known
in MANCHESTER, where he lives. He had
never been in the employ Of the company,
but made his living by stealing. On our
asking him where he went to after he COM
mitted the act, he replied that he only went
out in the woods short distance and then
returned to the train. He said he also felt
little afraid, as the passengers said they
would hang the party if they could catch
him. He also told us that he would not
have made confession to any one else but
Justice Hancock.

PENITENT1ART CoNvICTs.-We would call
the attention of the proper authorities to
the condition in which convicts are sent to
the penitentiary. Our reporter was pre-
sent on yesterday when negro convict was
received at that institution from Hanover
county. His condition was truly deplora-
BILE. With scarcely stitch of clothing on
him, he was literally full of body lice. So
long as prisoners are sent up from the
counties in such condition it is impossible
for the officers to keep the cells clean and
healthy.

CHARGED WITH PASSING COUNTERFEIT
MoNEY.-George E. Gray, of Appomattox
county, who was arrested on complaint of
Captain Charles E. Zinke, of the Freed
mems Bureau, in that county, on the charge
of passing counterfeit money, was brought
before United States Commissioner Chahoon
yesterday.
The first witness sworn was Mr.. Edward
V. Anderson, of Appomattox. Testified
that he knew the accused he (Gray) re-
sided in Appomattox; and that he passed
four ffty-cent notes in his presence which
he thought were counterfeit. Examined
the money at the time, and told him it was
counterfeit. He said he would redeem it
that night or the next morning. The last
witness saw of the counterfeit notes they
we're in the hands of James A. Wright,
sheriff Of buckingham county. Mr.. Hooper
was the one who received the money. The
accused did not express any surprise
when told that the money was counterfeit.
Witness found another ffty-cents of the
same character on the floor of the room in
which he slept that night. Went to Gray
and told him to redeem this two dollars in
counterfeit money, and he said he would.
The accused was playing cards at the time
this money was passed. He lost about
fifteen dollars. Witness slept in the same
room with him that night, and heard him
get up several times during the night; also
heard the rattling of paper which sounded
like new money.
Cross-examined by Mr.. McKenney, coun-
sci for the accused We were playing
cards at the time, and these counterfeit
notes were paid for checks to be used in the
game. do not think it was the intention
of Mr.. Gray to defraud US, as we were all
friends. Four persons slept in the room in
which found the money, and there was a
good deal Of passing about the room during
the night. DON'T know who it was hand
ling the paper during the night.
Major Hennessey, assistant district attor-
ney, asked that the case be continued, in
order that he might secure other testimony.
The Commissioner continued the case un-
til the 10Th instant.
