BAD FOR BEvERsDGr,
The Examination OF an Old Colored Man at
the Police Court Leads TO His Arrest-Charg.
ed With Binek-MailinE, Examined and
Sent On

On Tuesday last an old colored man
named Z. a. Haskins, who keeps kind of
diminutivc eating-house on upper Broad
street, was arrested on a warrant charging
nm with selling liquor without license,
ana he was examined before Polce-Justice
Richardson on Wednesday. In the course
OF the examination facts We're elected
which IL true form the basis OF a very Ga.
rious charge against William II. Beyeridge.
the famous ReSdiuster capitation-tax COL
lector; and acting upon which Com.
monwealth' 's-Attorney Witt caused
warrant to be issued and had him
arrested. During his examination the
old man Haskins said that he owed Bey.
eridge $50, and that he (Haskins) had a
counter-claim against him for $50, which
Beyeridge had acknowledged, but he was
not then able TO settle. Beveridge had ask
ed him why he did not sell liquor and make
money, so he could pay him. He had re-
piled he had no license for the sale OF
liquor; when Beveridge told him he would
not have 10 get out a license to sell beer.
Acting upon this assurance OF Beyerldge,
who is practicing lawyer. Ifaskins said
ne began the sale OF beer; that some time
after Beyeridge told him he was violating
the law. and that he would charge him
(IlaskinS) with it II he did not pay him
what he owed; that he had also written 10
him, threatening him in like manner He
Said, IN answer to a question, that ne could
not read himself, but that his little son had
read ii TO him. and that the letter was lost.
During the investigation Haskins handed
to Mr.. Witt capitation-tax receipt issued
by "Wiliam II. Beycridgc. collector, To
=. \. IIaskinS." which. he alleged. Beye-
ridge had given TO him, telling him to vote
the Readiu,ter ticket. and the old man
added, AN, Mr.. Witt. ! amt paid him
marry cent for it, neither"
Beveridge was yesterday examined in the
Police Court, the prosecution having been
Instituted under section II oi chapter lsI
OF the Code Of Virginia. as follows: az any
person threaten injury 10 the character,
person. or property Of another. or 10 accuse
him OF any offence and thereby cXtort
money or pecniary benefit. he shall be
confined in the ponitontary not less than
one nor more than five years."
The prosecution i'm this ease /. for an at
tempt TO commit this crime. which makes
IL Il misdemcanor. punishable by fine and
imprisonment i'm j0il.
Beycrid2e was sent on 10 the grand Jury
and bailcd TO appear in the sum OF 5000.
He was represented 10y Mr.. X. Il. Foster,

the Commonwealth.

way, varied now aud then by some fellow
calling out, "Lal. call your convention ter
ORDER" and sundry quarrcls about the
manner in which the work should be done.
Rounds men were working for the tempo
rary organization, and 50 were Mayo's.
In the adherents of Mayo could be ident-
ifcd the trusty and tried followers OF the
little man Malone, who to-day is trying to
ram the State OF Virginia, mother OF
states. statesmen, and all, into the capa-
ciors depths Of his wide brecchcs-pocketS.
Rounds men were mostly OH the RepuD-
lican order, and while avowedly agreeing
with Malone in politics, were still anxious
to assert their independence by letting 1t
be known that they were old Republicans.
Bv instructions which were modified by
a "not TOO much," the courthouse bell
was rung at II O'Clock, signalling the
opening Of the Convention.
Among those in attendance was Mr.:
Duff Green. who took the stand and called
the Convention to order in an official capa-

The Dispatch reporter was the first man
to enter the courtroom here in which the
CuriOus-C Colored-C Coalition Convention held
its session to-day for the purpose OF nomi-
mating a candidate TO represent in the
coming campaign old-faShioncd Democratic
conservatives who have lately tired Of
being on the outside Of the political
corn-crib, and have now Joined in
the throng of Radical Republicans
that are running around the aforesaid
pabulum-producing receptacle, squealing
for some Of its contents under the eupho-
nious name Of CoaltionistS. With COPY
Of the Richmond UjSpdtch. which was
found lying upon a table in front Of the
judges seat, the reporter wiped off the
dust, which was lying thick, and awaited
the opening Of the doors, which in few
minutes took place.
Then the delegates from the First dis
trict commenced to swarm in. There are
sixteen counties in this district. and fifty
eight delegates came to the Convention; :;
and Notwithstanding this there were only
three candidates spoken Of for the nomina-
tiOn-Georgc c. Round Republican). OF
King William county; Il. VI. Mayo Read-
iuSter-DemocraN, OF WcStmorcland; and
James X Mcdonald Republican), OF North
cumberland.
The personnel of the Convention was
better than is usually seen. and larger
sprinkling Of white men was noliccble than
i seen in SOuthside Virginia. Now and
then a freedman with real ebony face,
cleaning ivory, and fiat nose could be de-
serted. He wasn't courted like the "lob-
ster>" comted cuflee at IIcnricO court
house, but stood in the background like an
oversccr at frollc. He had the cyerlast-
ing umbrella, the old-fa,hioned hickory
club. the regulation du>tcr, and the inevi-
table fan, without which paraphernalia no
plantation statesman Of sable hue ever
darcs to trust himself in the important dis
charge OF the weighty duties of a repre-
sentative of the people. Things went on
