The Petersburg Express, of the 4th inst. says:"Jeremiah Temple and Allen Bonner, the negroes engaged in the late infamous attempt on the person of a little girl, on the suburbs of this city, had a preliminary examination before the Mayor on Saturday morning. The girl was present and recognized the fellows, and her evidence was clear and emphatic.
The negroes acknowledged the crime by telling upon and convicting each other.

We are happy to state, however, that before the girl could be subjected to their infamous designs, the men were frightened off by persons passing by. The prisoners were remanded to jail for further trial."

They have been so trained, to running, they would "take water" upon the first approach of danger.
Four other deserters reported themselves at General Clark's headquarters on Wednesday last.
They have seen the elephant, and are satisfied with the sight.
Not less than fifty desertions have occur
