dispatch was from Richmond and was sent
by the gentleman who claimed to have
been robbed and whose name is Captain
Mcdonald Of the ship Ambassador now
lying at New Orleans. The baggage de-
scrHbed was found upon the parties ar
rested. but on examination before Justice
Hollingshead there appeared no proof OF
criminal intention on the part OF those ar
rested. 1t appeared, rather, that they had
and attended to his baggage when he had
evidently missed his train from Richmond
after it was checked through The prison.
ers were accordingly dismissed, and the
baggage is now at the office of Justice Hoi-
lingshead. The affair was managed skill
fully and promptly by our police. although
it occasioned some inconvenience to the in
nocent parties, and it demonstrates the
alertness and vigilance with which a case
of real mischief would be tracked CUT
