The Party of Gentlemen who serenaded Hon. L. A. Wigfall at the Spotswood House, Wednesday night, after the ceremonies incident to that occasion had been concluded, proceeded with the band to the Richmond Female Institute, (over which Rev.

The compliment was suitably acknowledged by Rev. Mr. Winston.

Assault with Rocks.
--The Mayor, yesterday, ordered punishment to be bestowed on Winston, slave of John Sinton, for assaulting Adelaine, slave of E. Yerby, while in charge of several of the latter's children, some of whom came near being struck by the missiles thrown by the above colored rascal.
The master of the nurse luckily observed the proceeding, and succeeded, after a chase, in overhauling the scamp and handing him over to Captain Wilkinson.
His punishment was deserved, and if the stripes which he got were "well laid on," surely nobody will complain.

Capt. Coats caught these birds in Louisa county, making centipede tracks for Northwestern Virginia, and returned them to the Captain of their company.
The names of these precious scoundrels are David Embry and J. B. Crook.
