LYNcHBURG, VA, January 10, 1876.
I am happy to inform you that Colonel
Abuer Anthony, who was brutally assaulted
and robbed at Lynch's station, in Campbell
county, on the 4th instant, by two black viii
lains, continues to improve, and his chances
for recovery are now hopeful.
As yet, although several arrests have been
made, the guilt Of none has been established,
George Mays, the negro from Bedford coun.
ty. who was arrested here under clrcum.
stances which were extremely suspicious,
and who was found to have pistol in his
pocket and about seventy dollars on his per-
son (the amount taken from Colonel An.
thony), has been released, the evidence De-
ing insufficient to warrant his further deten-
ton.
Every effort is being made both By the au..
thorities and the personal friends OF Colonei
Anthony to bring the culprits to justice;
and with the clues in the possession OF those
who are working up the matter success is
not even doubtful.
Two gentlemen by the name of Hall, who
went to the deI0. very shortly after the al
fair occurred, met two negroes leaving the
store, whom they saw sufficiently distinctly
to be able to describe them, and doubtless
they can identify them. An old haYersack
made of canvas and the instrument with
which the assault was made were found IN
the room with the body. The latter was q
kind of sack, made of new cloth, sewed up
with tWlne, about three inches in diameter,
and evidently made for the purpose. 1t con-
tanned rock weighing about three pounds.

near the place where the brutal attack was
made.
Last night the blacksmith.sbop Of Mr.
Dowdy, situated near the house ID when
Colonel Anthony now il, was fired by an III
cendiary and burned. 1t is generally De'
lieyed that the purpose was to attract 10 tne

AN ASSAULT By A RUFPIAN.-We have
communication from MIR. John G.. Rucker, of
Amherst, giving an account of curious ad-
venture with an eX-penitentiary convict
whom he encountered on the road near New.
market, in Nelson county. They seem to
bave fallen into sort Of free and easy con-
rersation, in which the jailbird unbosomed
himself and related many acts OF Yilainy in
which he bad engaged. Hetinally proposed
a drink to Rucker. and the latter, after resist.
ing, finally consented. They went to the
shop of man named Cooper, took drink,
and Rucker was about to depart when his
highway acquaintance stopped him and re-
quired proof that he was not riding stolen
horse and leading another. This, Rucker
attempted to furnish, but it was not satisfac-
tory, and the rascal took possession of the
horses and seized Rucker. A fight ensued,
in which Rucker was roughly handled, He
went to Newmarket and reported the case.
warrant was issued for his assailaBt. In
the mean time he came across the ferry with
the horses. Rucker met him, angry words
passed, and the latter opened fire on his
bold enemy, woupding him in the arm and
side. The scamp was then arrested, taken
before Justice CabeIl, and sent to Nelson
Jail for trial. This is the short of long
story as told by MIR. Rucker. Lynchbur9
