Hustings Court, Judge Lyons presiding. The time of this Court yesterday was occupied in the trial of one William N. Miller, formerly a Lieutenant in one of the Virginia regiments, who, about November last, was cashiered for some offence, and who, shortly thereafter, migrated to this city, where he conceived the idea of raising the wind by pretending to be a Lieutenant Colo-Colonel. He was successful in his imposture to the extent of swindling Messrs. King & Lambeth, the well-known carriage manufacturing firm, of about $497 in money, and a buggy and saddle, which he got in exchange for a forged pay-roll, whish he signed and palmed off on them as Lieut. Colonel. King & Lambath soon found out the cheat, and recovered the greater portion of their funds and property. Mr. Smith, an assistant paymaster in the Confederate service, had, prior to the operation with K. & L, been so deceived by the sleek and plausible appearance and representations of the pretended Lieut.
