Stealing Wood.
--William, slave to Hatcher & Webster, was convicted before the Mayor, last Saturday, of stealing wood from V. Hargamin, and ordered to receive twenty-five stripes.
Arrests by the Police.
--The police yesterday arrested William, slave of Meredith Brown, for stealing $2.50 from J. E. L. Masourier.
The darkey was a runaway at the time.
Officer Gentry arrested a negro named Jim Robinson (one of Hatcher & Webster's drivers) for being implicated in the abduction of Mr. Persons Walker's trunk, and $200 therein contained.
In searching the premises occupied by him the officer found, next to the slats of his bed, a breach-loading flintlock musket, inscribed "U. S., North Middleton, Conn., 1834." It was evidently stolen from a Government wagon, or private soldier, and concealed for sinister purposes.
It can be reclaimed by the owner's going to the cage.

Mounted Guerrillas.
--We are gratified to learn that Captain Bolivar Ward, who has done most efficient service in Western Virginia as a guerrilla leader, is now in Richmond for the purpose of increasing his company to the maximum standard, and, if possible, to raise a battalion of mounted rangers.
His destination the Yankees will no doubt discover to their sorrow at an early day. We would advise all daring young men, fond of adventure and excitement, to call upon Captain Ward at once, at his rendezvous, at the corner of Franklin street and Locust Alley.
We need only add that he has had experience in partizan warfare in the Rocky Mountains with Carson, Beckwith, and Hatcher, and accompanied Colonel Doniphan, of Missouri, in his famous expedition through Northern Mexico.
