Supposed liquor shops closed. --On Tuesday, the detectives connected with the office of Captain R. M. Booker, Assistant Provost Marshal of the Western District. proceeded to search the restaurant kept on 8th street, near the Spotswood Hotel, by Jim Cook and John Dabney, in search of liquor.--Very little of the fluid was found; but appearances being much against the parties, as violators of the proclamation forbidding the sale of liquor, their house was closed and they locked up in Freeland's factory, corner 6th and Cary streets, for trial.

Booker the windows were boarded up half way; but these boards being pulled aside, the practice of spitting on people, and applying opprobrious epithets to them, was pursued with increased vigor. Strict orders had been issued for the sentinels to compel the inmates to keep their heads within the windows, and conduct themselves properly Yesterday, during Capt. Booker's absence, Minter commenced abusing and spitting on the sentinel for telling him to put his head in. The command being repeated the usual number of times, the man raised his piece and fired, the ball passing in between his eyes and coming out of the top of the skull. He lingered several hours and then died. Minter was a native of Fluvanna, and came from near Columbia, in that

Minor, of North Carolina, and P J of his life" All the parties named in connection with the matter having, at one time or another, been inmates of the military station of the Western District, Capt. Booker was enabled to trace out the whole affair, so as to leave no reasonable doubt but that Hassle and his three comrades were the authors of the robbery, as well asion here.
