his adopted son, Joe, have been arrested ON
suspicion Of being the murderers of C. c..
Goodrich, whose body was found few days
ago IN Goodyear creek. A hired man named
Quinn has also been held to serve as q witness

A Supposed Foul Murder.

We learn from the Northern Neck Ners
that on Thursday morning of last week al
old gentlemen named Joseph Newman. who
has resided within mile Of Warsaw, Rich
mond county. for many years, left his home
early that morning without informing his
family where he was going, and did not re-
turn during the day. No traces of his
whereabouts were discovered until Satur-
day morning. when it was learned that a
small colored boy had seen man answer
ing to his description in conversation with
woman near the house of one Martha
Ball Search was made near this spot
which shortly resulted in discovering the
body of Mr.. Newman. 4 coroner's inuuest
was Immediately held, and the jury render
Ell verdict in effect that the deceased came
to his death by violence, and that all the
circumstances pointed to one Amanda Ball
ms the guilty party, though some of the jury
thought that another woman Was equally
implicated. A warrant was issued at once
and the woman committed to Jail to await
trial before the County Court The only
marks of violence discovered were on the
left side of the face, which was terribly mu-
tilated. The deceased was over seventy
years OF age, Il most estimable man and a
highly respected citizen.

Letter from Cobb's Island

Correspondence Of the Alexandria Gazettc.l
CoBBs ISLAND, Va, July 29th 1882
That Cobb's Island has no peer as u seaside
resort is not disputed by any who have
visited it, and that there is not finer beach
upon the American shore than here, one 50
even, level, safe and delightful the surf OF
which is SO grand, and thus the bathing un.
surpassed That this is true will be adj
mitted when its situation is considered. IT
is seven miles long and one wide, eighteen
miles II. G. of Cape Charles and eight miles
from the Eastern Shore peninsula Of Va.
and really in the ocean with no land between
it and Europe. The lights Of Capcs Charles
and Henry, and ON Hog Island can be seen.
Here is located one of the moss important
of the L. :. Life Saving stations on our coast
with every appliance to save wrecked sen
men, and preserve property on the stranded
vessels. That Cobbs Island has grand future
before it, there can be no doubt, especially if
some calculating philantrophist, with an
eye to business would build spacious hotel
with modern conveniences, plenty Of wafer
wide airy, halls, verandas, etc, also plenty
of shade trees, which should be planted al
once; also build strong pier OH the inside
OF the Island and have excursion steamers
daily from Old Point. If this is done it will
soon be the most popular seaside resort on
our coast. 1t can be done if enterprising
men will take hold, and the present owners;
are DESTROYS that some one should improve its
natural advantages 1t may be asked show
do visitors now get to Cobb's Island?" Well
not 50 comfortably and speedily as could be
desired, but in tho old fashioned way that
our fathers used; by coach across the PENN
sula from Chcrrystonc four miles, and by
sail vessels eight miles, to the Island in Il
staunch sloop. \ most delightful sail if
there is a good breeze and pleasant party
along. Visitors come from Baltimore,
Washington and Alexandria by steamer to
Old Point, or Norfolk, and thence to Cherry
stone on the Old Dominion Steamship Co. S
steamer Northampton. If from Baltimore,
the cheapest route is by the excursion
steamer Theodore Weems leaving every
Saturday evening; fare down and back only
81, so that it is cheaper even if the fare from
Washington to Baltimore is added All
parts of the county are represented among
the IS guests now here; most are from Balti-
more, but Washington has many represent
tatives, the army and navy also; goodly
number are ladies, and there arc three clergy
men and two college professors. Among those
registered arc l.. II. Fitzhugh, p. H. Fitz.
