a Virgintan Indicted by a Democratic
Jury for Persecuting and Intimidatipg q
Colored Witness.
RICHMOND, Va, Oct. THE grand jury of
the United States circuit court to-day brought
in true bill Of indictment against VIM. Il.
Pond, for corruptly endeavoring to intimidete
J. P. Davis, colored. in discharge of his duty
as witness in the United States court. Davis
gave information which led to the arrest of
Pond on charge of selling whisky without
license. Pond then procured Davis arrest on
a warrant in which he was charged with oh.
tanning goods from colored man by false pre-
tences. Davis was convicted and sentenced to
receive thirty-nine lsshes, and be imprisoned
six months. The evidence shows that Davis
was whipped with very great cruelty, his life
for while being despaired of, and that he
was convicted by magistrate without
hearing evidence of any kind. who declared to
the prisoner at the time of his conviction,
that he would show him how to report GENTLE
men to revenue officers. Davis, while in fail,
was several times shot al. but by whom, the
evidence does not show. The party from whom
it was charged Davis stole. still says he never
made the complaint, and that he always re-
garded him as man of good character. Davis
has been released, as petit larceny can only bs
punished by stripes by the law of Virginia
and the grand jury to-day indicted Pond fol

October being 1Ao under November, which is
rather weak point, and what puzzles the
most Is that all other grades but No. are in
good shipping demand.
Corn hangs dreadful heavy, but who on
earth can drag load like ours when the supply
pours in continually at bigger scale than it
ts possible to take it away with the liberal
shipping conveniences continually at hand. 1t
seems to be a kind of sIcyphus work to get the
price up. Every time she Is we'll started down

Oats lower under heavy sales. but just for
the present that market seems to be more of a
scalping nature than Of late.
