Suspicious characters.
--Officer William Peterson, Chief of Police in Petersburg, brought over on Saturday and delivered to the Provost Marshal, Charles Wolfhart, who represented himself as a German, lately living in Charleston, S. C., and William Parker, native of Ireland, formerly for nine years resident of New Orleans, who were arrested in Petersburg as suspicious characters and disloyal personages. They were committed for the time being to Castle Godwin. The persons named did not state where they proposed going to. Parker was gifted with a cut across the eye, which he said had been given him as a soldier in the C. S. army. The other fellow appeared as dull and sleepy as one could reasonably wish.
