Prison Items. --Forty men will be sent from Castle Thunder this morning under guard to rejoin their regiments. James B. Shook, a deserter for six months from the Fayette Artillery, was sent to prison yesterday. John Haley, a member of Company I, 16th Miss. Reg't, was sent out from the Castle last night, with a soldier armed with a musket, to get his clothes, prior to being sent to his regiment. Getting on Main street, he tripped up the unfortunate son of Mars, who fell sprawling in the street, and rapidly retreated. John F. Roberts, of the 19th Va. Battalion, was received at the prison for trial by Court-Martial. James Lyons, a paroled prisoner, was put in for deserting from Camp Lee. John W. Harris, of Capt. Robertson's Company, was put in on the charge of aiding a prisoner to escape. William B. Fleshman, of Bossioux's Guard, in confinement for a similar offence, was tried yesterday and honorably acquitted.
d. Acquitted.--E. H. Taliaferro, charged with obtaining money from the State by means of forged checks, was carried before the Mayor on Saturday for examination. Nothing being offered in evidence either on that or the previous examination directly sustaining the charge on which the prisoner was arrested, the Mayor said the case had not been made out, and discharged the party from custody. The amount obtained from the State Treasury by means of the alleged forgeries exceeds $14,000. Judge Lyons's Court.--This Court convened again yesterday for the trial of criminal cases and the transaction of civil business. Several letters of administration on estates of decedents were granted, but no criminal was arraigned for trial. --The Grand Jury assembled pursuant to adjournment, and retiring into the Sergeant's office, listened to testimony in a large number of cases, and returned into Court with some twenty five indictments, for various offences, against parties now in custody.
