the report of the investigation OF the

of the report to be made and forwarded
them 10 Judge w. N. Portlock and Com
mouweaith's 4 ttorney 4. G Marshall,
with request for thorough i-quiry into

General Vaughan, in his endorsement
of the report of the jndge-sdvOcste, has
this TO say, among other things:
81 recommend that steps be taken to
bring to Justice the policemen who com.
mitted the assault on Sergeant Kolner."
After commencing the soldiers for
their GOODNESS and discipline in the farce

ersl Vaughan said.
alt is quite apparent that the time ls
at hand when the uniform OF Virginia
