inia cavalry, was arrested for desertion and committed to the Soldiers' Home, corner of Cary and 7th streets, to be sent back to the army. On Tuesday, being, it seems, desperately determined not to go back to his company, he hoisted a third story window of the home and leaped out. He came down feet foremost, and alighted on a small shed in the back yard, receiving, wonderful to say, no sort of injury. Before the alarm could be given he clambered over the back wall of the yard and escaped. Yesterday detectives Mitchell and Sledd succeeded in tracking him up and arresting him, when they found upon him a number of forged papers purporting to have been given him by his superior officers. He was committed to Castle Thunder, where, if he attempts jumping out of a window, he will get a cutlet through him.
