ably has long been the chief dep

his term Of Office handled over
O0, 600 without the discrepancy Of
~, and has made an efficient and
kpetcnt officer, thoroughly familiar
che duties Of the department. The
Dintment of Captain Asa Rogers has
"a them offence and somewhat en-
.red them against the party with
Dm they have been acting, and EN-
3sncd some Of them to say that they
affiliate no longer with it.
b Is stated upon what seems TO be
"a authority that Colonel James ID.
s. Ikdy has sent in his resignation as
1ifman Of the Republican State Com
j(tsc, but that no action has yet been
len upon it.
,It is evident from the signs of the
mes that the political events Of the
cent past will materially change the
l&rty vote in this section.
IL is authoritatiyely stated that the
$ate, the largest judgment-creditor
Aeainst the Planters and Mechanics
hank Of this city, has acquiesced
n the decision Of Judge Mann,
declaring the deed made by the d.
5octors to be valid and good, and
1hst the trustees will, under the
decree Of the Court, proceed at once to
1iStribute pro raso among all the credit
m the 900. 900 of funds in their hands.
This viii give dividend Of about
~ per cent. 1t is expected that the
Heclaration Of the trustees of their readi-
Se<s to pay the dividend will be made
within the next day or two. There are
three other Observation-Disclosures,
The Union Bank of New York, the
Norfolk and Western Railroad Com
pany. and the Citizens Bank Of Blasks |
and Whites. They have not yet -p-
pealed. but the acquieseence of the |
State points TO similar action on their
part.
Snow fell here to-day to depth of
between two and three inches, but the |
is so mild that but little
prospect of good sleighing is offered.
DIR. John Herbert Claiborne, who has
quite sick for several days, is re-
!S tier to-day.
'o..e' w. entioned in this CORE
- "a' ~ weeks ago that the ar
|pondence several =, q, tho CHARGE
est of a colored woms- VI ~, m: ~
II the larcency of steer i. 700 n
county, and her trial and disch~. -
his city, threatened for a short tin.s +,
ZONE conflict of authorities. The con-
lict was avoided by the yielding OF the
officer. Last evening the
woman was again arrested by an OH
GER, Of the county on warrant en-
kraeing two or more charges, and the
Mayor again discharged her on the
ground that having been previously |
tried on the same charges, she could
not again be tried on them. There is
that in order to bring her
10 trial in Dinwiddie the case will be
brought before the grand jury of that
county.
II is learned by letter that the Cir
cult Court, Of Sussex county has
awarded an injunction restraining the
Atlantic and Danville Railroad Com
pany from the further prosecution of its
work in the way Of construction of the
road on account of the company's fail
ws TO pay for the right Of way. No
further work viii de done until the fur
ther order of the Circuit Court.
