d, and was therefore surprised on arriving at Sailor's Creek to find that my rear was menaced. As the troops in my front had halted, I detached Humphreys' brigade, commanded by Colonel Fitzgerald, and Gary's dismounted battalion, under Lieutenant-Colonel Barham, to take position near the house occupied as a hospital by Pickett's division, to cover my crossing of Sailor's Creek. Upon arriving at the top of the hill, on the south side of the creek, I was informed by General Ewell that the enemyond all praise, and worthy the reputation of these veteran regiments. On no battlefield of the war have I felt a juster pride in the conduct of my command. I beg leave expressly to include in these just encomiums the little command of Lieutenant-Colonel Barham, and especially that officer. I am, Major, very respectfully, your obedient servant, J. B. Kershaw, Late Major-General C. S. A. Major Campbell Brown, Richmond, Virginia. Camden, April 29, 1867. my Dear Major:—Your favor coveri

Thanks for Courtesies. --Drs.Dre Hines and Murdock, who have charge at the Hospital at York town, request that their thanks be returned to the donors, Messrs. Joseph P. Jones, James D. Browne and Wm. A. Wright and Madame Woodward, Barham, J. Tyler, Bass and others, for the liberal contributions of edibles, &c., sent down on Saturday, for the use of the sick soldiers under their care. We are also requested to ask the generous to contribute liberally of old clothing, such as shirts, drawers, socks, under-wear, &c., towels, sheets, pillows, floor-cloths--anything will be useful in a hospital. Two ladies of this city are on the spot, giving their time and attention to a proper distribution of articles sent down. They are greatly in need of three or four stout colored women, to wash, scrub, &c., as cleanliness is essential to health. Those having servants to spare will please report at once; liberal hire will be given. A messenger will go down on Saturday morning next; th
6th. --Present Recorder Caskie and a full bench. James Coyne, alias Patrick Finnoven, was arraigned for examination on the charge of murdering Henry Cronan, in May, 1861, at the house of Mrs. Driscoll, on Cary street, by stabbing him with a bowie knife. The evidence adduced proved the fact, and the accused, a hard looking subject, was committed for trial before Judge Lyons in September next. He was next arraigned on the charge of committing burglary and larceny on the premises of Messrs. Barham & Goddin, and sent on. The latter felony was committed while the party was a fugitive, he having broken out of jail after being imprisoned for the murder of Cronan.--Ann Edwards, and her daughter, Virginia Edwards, were examined on the charge of making a felonious assault with an axe and knife on George Brown, an intoxicated soldier. The latter testified that he had, while on his way to the Valley, been seduced into drinking something that upset his reason; that while in a semi-unconsci
Hustings Court. --The term of Judge Lyons's Court for the trial of criminal cases commenced yesterday. The Grand Jury appeared and were sworn in, with John Parcell as foreman. The Grand Jury made indictments against the following parties: James Dillshaw, for stealing an overcoat; John Ocrill three cases for burglary and grand larceny; John Moore alias Jas Malone, for assault with attempt in kill and rob; Jas. H Gilmon and Archer T Walton, for horse stealing; Gen Burns, for stealing watches and jewelry; Wm. Sulbran, for stealing goods from Shafer's; Jesse White, for homicide of John L Andrews; John Cochrane, for stealing Ma; Barham's horse; Pat Kirby, for breaking into Shafer's store; Frank Harford, otherwise called Frank Rosecrans, for breaking into Weiciger's store with intent to commit larceny; James Agan and Patrick Morgan, for garroting and robbing Wm H Hardgrove of a gold watch.
Sent on. --James Coyne alias Finnoreen, who enjoys an unenviable reputation, (being in confinement on the charge of murder,) was arraigned before the Police Court yesterday, and sent on to the Hustings Court for examination on the charge of burglary and larceny, committed on the premises of Messrs. Barham and Goddin, a few weeks since.
others. The accident was caused by the ignition of gas in the pit and was followed by a tremendous explosion, which shook the earth for miles around.--At the time of its occurrence there were seventy or eighty hands at work in the pit, all of whom, save nineteen, escaped serious injury. Much excitement prevailed in the neighborhood after the explosion and great anxiety was manifested to know who were injured. As soon as the shaft could be descended working parties were sent down, and discovered that Mr. Barham, the overseer, and fifteen negroes were dead, and three other negroes fatally injured. The balance were safe. Most of the slaves were owned by the Chesterfield Goal Mine Company. The injury to the works was comparatively small, and can be repaired in a short time. Raccoon Pit is but a short distance from Clover Hill Pits and about nine miles from Petersburg. How the accident occurred no one can tell, as most of the parties in its immediate neighborhood were killed.
