Admitted a citizen.

--Mr. John Lindsey, the well-known butcher, who is a native of "Merrie England," and who has been a resident of this city for 27 years past, was yesterday admitted a citizen of the sovereign State of Virginia by the Hustings Court, Judge Lyons presiding. He is the first gentleman who has been "naturalized" before the above Court since the passage of the Secession Ordinance. Since Mr. Lindsey's arrival in Virginia he has certainly afforded about as many indubitable evidences of his intention to become a citizen of the Old Dominion, as any gentleman with whom we are acquainted.
