TIE GoocHLAHD MURDER.-The colored
man Charles Wingfeld alias William
Brown, arrested in this city by Sergeant
Hall on the charge Of shooting Mrs. Drin-
nard and Mr.. Henly, was to have been tried
at Goochand Courthouse on Thursday last,
but Mr.. Hcnly, who now resides in Pow
hatan, could not cross the river by reason
OF high water. and the case was continued
until the third Thursday in january.
Sergeant Hall, who went 10 Goochland as
q witness, states that five or six gentlemen,
including two or three Of those who were
summoned as jurors, have positively identl-
fed the prisoner as one of the two suspi-
cious men who were. seen about Mr.. Hen
Iy's store the day before the murder and
robbery. The Commemorative attorney is
confident, Sergeant Hail says. that he will
be able to convict accused. They speak OF
sending the prisoner to the Richmond jail
until the trial comes off, as the Goochand
Jail is not regarded as very secure.
