One OF the city papers published two

statement from one Porter, who represents
himself ia the New York Times to have
been captain in the New Jersey cavalry,
who escaped from Libby prison in 1864
The s.yarn7 has created much discussion
among the Confederate officers and soldiers
here, and all that have seen pronounce the
thing verltable lie. i am satisfied that no
Confederate wagon trains could stand the
FIRE OF the Federal gunboats in the North.
cumberland as late as '64-the point was too
far down for them to go unless they had q
support of five thousand men. Porter, IT
such an individual lived, would never have
been permitted to escape arrest by the mas
ter Of the wagon train while, crossing the
Pamunkey if be had been recognized, be-
cause the Confederates were too watchful
about that time. es@E a@- - 1909
Twill be much obliged to any New jersey
paper, and so will every body in Richmond,
if Porter's real status at home will te pub
lished, his standing, AID his general reputa
ton. Especially would we all be glad &c
know the name of the generous widow who
acted the mothers part to him for about
two months; the name Of the Confederate
official OF high rank who belonged to- the
:. League ," and the location of some Of the
garrels and cellars where so many muskets
and other. arms were stored in this trait
orous city, TO be used If Steneman's raid hao
been successful, as he represents 1t TO have
been. -. 9.52&s r,sEa
Some time in 1864 there was Captain
Porter In the Libby, who claimed to be from
Massachusetts, was an intimate friend of
Captain Stuart, from New York, who was
also a prisoner, and would like to know il
this man and the Porter of this sensations
story are identical. Now, hope the north

or 4 DEPpTy MARsg an. In this cetift yes.
terssay the case OF Henry rs. Berger county
treasurer OF Batefours, aud one of the most
prominent and influential gentlemen liz that
county, was the fret regular case tried, and
occupied the greater portion of the day. In
view OF its peculiar interest ard unexpected
result we give an outline OF the testimoHg:
The United States deputy marshal ofthis
city. Mr. James w. Wright, testified that he
called upon Mr. Berger and summoned bin
10 aid In the arrest OF one Williams Il. Barger,
who had violated the laws of the United
States, and who bad previously been too
smart to be captured. de stated emphattcally
that Mr.. Berger not only refused to aid hin,
but averred that he /" wouldn't tell where
Barger was if he knew, because Barscr was
good and popular man, and the people
didn't want him moiested."
This testimony was completely overturned
by that of Mr.. Berger's Witnesses, who swore
that they were present at the Interview that
Mr. Berger was sick tbeing afflicted WITH ep-
iiepsy) that he 80 told the Marshal, and That
he advised two OF bis employees to go with
the Marshal, proposing to pay for their SER
vices. and that he,eciuaily did pay them the
next morning. 1. further appeared In eyi-
deuce that the Marshal not only, failed to use
due diligence in bis Efforts to arrest Barger,
but that he actually rodein fifteen feet OF him,
aud bowed 10 him, but asked no questions.
OF course The Marshal aud his assistants, paid
by Dir. Berger, did not find Mr.. Bsrger at bis
home. .-----s.'- - - -. e, -
"A ludicrous episode Of the case was the
statement OF young man, who accompanied
the Marshal on his visit to Barger's house,
that Mr. Wright made the swiftest time on
record In ge.tipg away from abdiminatiye
fee, which be stumbled over in the front
yard. If the witness ID to be believed, the
Marshal got on top Of the fence at two or
three bounds, and did it so dexserously that
he didn't himself know when be accomplish
ed the wonderful feat. The witness was Of
the opinion that United States, officer who,
in the effort to arrest q desperate, exhibited
so little courage, was not q very dangerous
man any way. The defendant was ably de.
Tended by MIR. J. Foote Johnson.
AS soon a. the testimony was ended, in
which the {Marshals statements were sadly
djsproved, the Judge Instructed the district
attorney to write q verdict in favor OF the
defendant, which was signed by member OF
the jury. His honor then said:
4" Mr.. Wright, 1t is, the order Of this court
that you be instantsneously removed from
your Office Of deputy marshal of the United
States for the Western District Of Virginia,
and the Marshal is instructed that he cannot
appoint any deputy whose appointment has
not been endorsed by me-" 80
This intelligence, like bolt Of lightning
from cloudless sky, created profound sen.
