a petty offence, and who on that occasion exhibited a pass from Gen. Winder entitling him to the freedom of the city, having been liberated, was again arrested yesterday for another petty abstraction, the particulars of which did not transpire. The prisoner desired to explain, but the sitting magistrate cut him short with the assurance that he would be heard at another time. He would no more be deluded by his protestations of innocence. Committed for examination. James Johnson, alias McCabe, arrested a few days since for alleged complicity in the murder of Kelley and Downes, was present in Court, but not examined, as was also James Hogan, charged with aiding in the escape of a man who robbed Abnor Derliff, a soldier, of $75, in Hughes's row, on 17th street. Sigismond Zalaski, represented to be a 2d Lieutenant in the regular army of the Confederate States, was charged by Captain William S.

Around Richmond — silence about the repulse of Thursday--retaliation by Butler. It is quite significant that the Herald has not one word in it about the bloody repulse which the Yankees sustained before Richmond on Thursday; nor do its readers know that there was a fight on that day. A letter from before Petersburg says: An important reconnaissance was made on last Tuesday night from our extreme left by two hundred and fifty men of the Thirteenth Pennsylvania cavalry, under Major McCabe. They passed the enemy's cavalry pickets without being discovered, and proceeded to Stony Creek and Rowanty stations, the latter of which places is two miles beyond the extreme right of the rebel army. The expedition successfully returned, after making considerable captures and gaining much valuable information. It was ascertained that the rebels have, on the extremity of their right wing, at Stony creek, seven thousand cavalry and infantry, strongly entrenched. Some deserters fr

Several days since, a detachment of one hundred of the Thirteenth Pennsylvania cavalry, under command of Major McCabe, was ambushed by a party of four Confederate scouts and actually forced back from their expedition. Six of the Yankees were killed, and their bodies fell into the hands of our scouts. Major McCabe was also killed. This officer was one of thfell into the hands of our scouts. Major McCabe was also killed. This officer was one of the most brutal tyrants who ever oppressed a community or abused power, and the rejoicing is general over his death. "The only cavalry force of the enemy south of the Appomattox is General Gregg's division. There is, however, a very large infantry force, all in winter quarters. These quarters are neatly built, and resemble large villages, looking very beautiful in their regularity at a distance."
