The said Negro had on when committed a red flannel shirt, dark grey coat, and black pants. He was sold from this county in October, 1860, by Mr John E.

Richmond (search for this): article 1
Result of the levy en masse. The volunteer movement, which was responded to with so much liberality by Richmond, had reduced the working force engaged in every calling and branch of business to the most limited numbers. The call for the body of the militia, would strip the business of the city of all the rest. Nearly every storehouse would have to be closed. Every workshop would be locked up. Every mill would cease to grind. Every working machinist and every effective mechanic be called away from his useful and necessary occupation. The Banks would be closed. The notes of the people due them would go unpaid and protested, and universal bankruptcy ensue. The notes of the Banks, the money of which the people have in their pock ets, might at any moment become worthless. There would be no business and no currency. The hotels and the restaurants would lose their supervisory force, and strangers would starve, or have to rob or steal their food. The market men would be taken a

Felonious shooting. --A case of shooting occurred yesterday evening about four o'clock, on Main street, nearly opppsite Dickinson's hat store. The party shot (who received a ball from a Colt's pistol in his breast and is not expected to survive) is named Wm. D. Wilson; the perpetrator of the act, Geo. W. Bowman, was locked up in the cage by officer Bibb to await an examination before the Mayor. One account represents the act to have been wholly unjustifiable; another, that the wounded man was advancing on the other with a drawn knife. Both parties, if we hear aright, are soldiers. Bowman, it seems, had been sent after Wilson to carry him to camp. The latter retreated into the street, and being drunk, fell down, when a bystander seized his musket. He arose and was coming towards the other party when the shooting took place. If the shooting was done "according to law." it can, no doubt, be made to appear so. It is, however, high time the shooting and stabbing business was pu
