The esse of young Klliott Gordon; the Massachusetts yon$h charged w\th horseMealing, was brought .up for the second time yesterday before the Circ*iit Court, and argued by R. G. Pcgram, Esq., Conn monwealth's Attorney, and Messrs. F. X. Watkins, Stringfellow, and Wallace for the defence. There was some difficulty in getting a jury. so that the trial was not concluded till a late hour at night. After an absence of fifteen or twenty minutes, the jury returned with a report that the\ were unable to agree. This morning on the opening of the court thev made the same report, but subsequently rendered a verdict of guilty, condemning the prisoner j to five yean*' imprisonment in the peni- 1 tentiary, and unanimously recommending him to the mercy of the Executive. This is probably the best thing they could have done, for there is no doubt the Governor would have pardoned him without any intervention. Gordon is a comely, bright - looking youth, and his case, conjoined with the great respectability of his connections, made a strong appeal to public sympathy. While he cannot be adjudged innocent of all criminal intention, yet his offence was not without some mitigating . circumstances. <9' f At a meeting of the Ladies' Hemorial Association yesterday it was <twrmined to dedicate the 9th of June to the grateful office of decking with flowers the graves of Confederate soldiers who perished near this city during the war. Meantime, active measures are to be taken to retnound and turf them, and renew the head-boards. The 9th of June, 1H64, it may be remembered, was the day when the first assault was made on our lines by tho Federal forccs. General Kant/, with two thousand cavalry, advanced on the Jerusalem plankroad, and was confronted at the Rives House by less than one hundred and fifty citi'/en-soldiers, and repulsed, but not without some severe fighting, during which we lost twelve or fifteen men killed and wounded, and thirty or forty taken prisoners. Not being aide to effect an entrance at that point, he withdrew his forces, and made another effort by the W ileox road. As he was descending the hill with his cavalry on the other side of' Lieutenant run, he was opportunely met by Graham's battery, that had but that moment taken position near the reservoir of the City Water Works, which gave him such a warm reception that he was driven back the second time. It was, however, a mournful day for Petersburg in the loss of so mauv of her best men ; ami therefore none more appropriate could be designated for paying fitting honors to our departed heroes. There was some disturbance yesterday in Dinwiddie, within a few miles of the city, which was very near resulting in serious consequences. A party of negroes presented themselves at the house of a gentleman, and in his absence demanded of the overseer the possession of some arms which had been stored there for safe keeping. Having no means of resisting the demand, he was compelled to surrender them. Information being conveyed to the police of the county, one of the negroes was arrested, and while in the act of being taken before a magistrate, another party of negroes, to the number of twenty or thirtyall armed with muskets- confronted the officers and demanded the release of the prisoner. One of the gentlemen, however, after reasoning with them, and representing the consequences of such a proceeding, succeeded in dissuading them from their purpose. The offender was committed, together with two or three others of the original gang, who were subsequently arrested. This is believed to be the first instance of serious violence which has taken place in this vicinity. As a general thing, there is no part of the State or of the south where the colored population has been more orderly.

Although Burnside is now a governor, he failed. with even the aid of Meagher's lighting brigade, to take Marye's heights. This has been accomplished, however, by Major Johnson, wider orders from Secretary Stanton, without the loss of a man ; aud scores of freedmen may now be seen levelling the breastworks on the portion of the ridge known as Willis llill, preparatory to laying out another National Cemetery for the interment of the dead of Burnside and Hooker's armies that are buried here and there in every nook and corner of this memorably historic region. Willis llill was named after its former owner, Byrd Willis ? the father of Mrs. Murat ? and subsequently passed into the hands of the Wellford family, who have a burial-ground iq?on it. It is now the property (so called) of Douglas Gordon, Esq., who had been approached by the Ladies' Memorial Assoeiation of this place for it> purchase as a cemetery for the Confederates who fell in defence of Fredericksburg and 44 the Heights." Lieutenant. Colonel llaml right, of the Elevcnth United States regulars, who has been for some time past in command of this |x?st, has been superseded by Major Nicotic ui us, of the Twelfth. Messrs. Fitzhugh, Marye, and Smith, engineers, are making a survey of the battlefields around Fredericksburg for the Kielu tnond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Kailroad Company. When completed it will be published in map form, with interesting explanatory notes. This will supply a de- | side rat um now much needed by travellers visiting this sect ion, and will tend to render even more popular this already most popular and excellent thoroughfare. Captain U. 1). Minor, of Merrimac fame, has made an estimate of the amount nu- , cessary to relieve this harbor of the obstructions which now seriously threaten ' the navigation of the Rappahannock. Of the four thousand dollar* required, accord- ! ing to his calculation, parties in Baltimore interested m the Fredericksburg trade will contribute two thousand dollars. By the way, why wa? Kichm'oud forced to look northward for parties to clean out the James, when the services of Colonel Jtives, Captain Minor, and others familiar with the location and tonnage of every vessel aud steamer sunk in its channel, could have been obtained f It may have liecn best, but it looks a I'ttle queer from our standpoint. The examination of Wesley Bowling for the murder of James M. Harrow, in Spotsylvania, in 1804, has been |>ostponcd ? it i.s alleged, If not on account of direct threats, because of ominous Intimations thrown out by the military.

FROM MOXT?OKERY t'Ol VTV. CorroifonUvnco of the Richmond Dl*p?tch. Chrintianhbi'bo, May 30, 1866. As I have lately returned from a trip to Newcastle, the "county-scat of Craig. I if ave thought that maybe a word or so on the crops, country, &c., might be acccptalili' to your readers. Going down to Salem on the train was very pleasant, as we passed through the magnificent valley of the Roanoke. The lands along thin river are noted for their beauty and fertility. Hemmed in on three sides by mountains, they are protected from the rude blasts ot our mountain winters ; and being well watered, they are now green with the famous blue grass ; and all the crops art* promising. The ne\t morning, starting off with eongenial society, I jolted along on a haltbroken eolt. with nothing of special interest to attract our notice until we came to the famous Hanging Hock, where "Old .lube" ought to have eaptnred the notorious Hunter, and would have done so had our cavalry been properly managed. 1 never saw a position better adapted for ambuscade, or where a small force might hold in check live times its number. This wa* the plan : merely to hold Hunter in ! eheck until the main army could come up i and attack him in the rear; and McCaus. ! i land's gallant and successful dash shows I that the plan was well devised. " But ' ! there is no use in crying over spilt milk " ; j or saying "it might have been." Passing through this narrow defile, we soon began I ! to ascend the mountain by a tortuous but ; ! well-graded road, and on reaching the i summit we had a most beautiful view ot j the surrounding scenery. We then ah- I ! ruptlv descended to the Catawba Valley, j j near to the u Boanokc Ked Sulphur Springs,'" and accepted the kind hospitali- j j tics ot a friend, where we did ample justice j to "bacon and greens," roast chicken, and ' ! gooseberry tarts. All through this country we found that the wheat crop was almost a complete failure ; and while the rye is more promising, still there will not be an average yield. The oats are looking well, and the j corn has a fine stand. The negroes were never owned to any very great extent in ' that section, but the most of them have I lelt, and tln ir places are more than sup. j by white laborers. From various sources we learned that probably a larger breadth of laud than usual would be cultivated. The people are not much encouraged to make improvements though, because of the diiliculty of getting to market over mountain roads. Should the "Winchester and Salem railroad be constructed, the whole of that beautiful and fertile section would be open to the world, and the value of the lands he enhanced beyond present computation. We were told of a fine coal bank that had lately been opened near to the Springs, of a similar kind to that of the famous Brush Mountain coal of Montgomery, and is no doubt the same vein. In the evening we rode on amid beautiful mountain scenery until we reached Craig's creek. 'I his is indeed a pretty good-si/cd river, and i^ so proverbially clear and limpid that men over there, in a discussion, will say : " Why, sir, the thing is as clear as Craig's creek;" and there's attend to all controversy. This was the stream that troubled General Ayrill so much in his raid to Salem, and where Fit/ Lee would have captured his force had he not been misinformed asto his ptccise whereabouts. And now we ride into the ancient and venerable town ot Newcastle. It is about as miserable, dilapidated, old- fashioned, out-ot-t he-way, aud comically-constructed place as 1 ever saw. It is near the continence of Craig's creek and Thorn's creek, and the inhabitants are exceedingly kind and hospitable, but feel that they are shut out from the world. By the way, I am told that about six miles of pretty rough work would enable the James River and Kanawha canal to passover this mountain to Sit. king creek, down this to New river, which is admirably adapted to canal purposes, and that the route is considered the most practicable by many of our most scientific engineers. The country around is fertile and very productive, and some of the people there are the best in Virginia. The people .showed us every attention, and notwithstanding our very unpleasant church business, our stay was delightful. Our return was marked by the same hard trot of the eolt and a drenching rain ? rather more of the water than is generally acceptable to us who believe in sprinkling, but not in immersion. H.

IIoiiie<bre?l l*roverbs. Good proverbs are excellent things. I They are to sensible conversation what ! good sauce i.-i to line well-cooked meat. I One of the authors of misspelt and quaint * letters ? Josh Billings ? has put forth a few that will pass for very good. We quote them : 44 It is highly important, when a man makes up his iuiii<lc* tew hekum a raskall, that he should examine hisself clusly, and see jX he aint better konMructed t V?r a phool/' 44 Heal happiness dont consis so mutch in what a man dont hav, as it duz in what he dont want." 44 We are ap tu hate them who wont take our advice, ami despise them who do." 44 Thare are a grate multitude ov individuals who are like blind mules, anxious enough to kick, but kant tell whare." 44 There is two things iu this life for which we are never fully prepared, and that iz, 1 twins." 44 Marrin for love ma be a little risky, but it is very honest." "It iz dredful eazy tew be a phool ? a ; man kau be one and not know it." 44 Gravity is very often mistakin for wisdom, but thare is as much difference as there is between a gide board and the man j who maid it." 4i What a man spends in this life, he saves; what lie dont git want ment for him, , and what lie saves, he looses." 11 Kize arly, work hard and late, live on wliat yu kant sell, give nothing awn, and if yu dont die riteh, and go tu the devil, yu ! ma sue me for damages." 41 A man running for olliss puts me in mimic ov a dog that's lost ? he smells ov everybody he meets and wags hisself all over." i A l'u knomknox. ?

J. Goodwin, of the Washington Springs.** 1 hereby most respectfully an l honestly solicit a careful notice of this pamphlet by the da-s? I suffering Inimanity to which it particularly refers and an attentive reading of its '? Supplement," and the authenticity of its inte] I nt and professional endorsement. The "Vegetable Eutrophiiy ' which figures as the most prominent feature in the pamphlet, constitutes, in thejudgment of discriminating physicians aud other* distinguished for inteliigence and a high appreciation of truth and merit, "an important addition" to the remedies now known as the most cllicieiit in the treatment of these diseases. My success In managing these diseases, now conceded ,o excel any attending the general plan- of treatment, is due to mv adaptation ot the Kutrophic upon the theory which 1 devised ution early nathological views "taken of these maladies. Trie potency of its eiilcacy makes it eminently deseiring a place among the* most reputed standard remedies of medical record: ami 1 would most conscientiously claim at the hands of honorable and intelligent physicians a fair and impartial trial of iis therapeutical value us applied by me in the control of these diseases. 1 can, on short notice, furnish physicians located in towns and cities from tifty to one hundred bottles of the Eutrophic at a cost of three dollars per bottle, containing thirty ounces. The long-established mineral resources of the Washington Springs, formerly known as Leech's, affording the best qualities of Sulphur, Alum, Chalybeate, ami Magnesia, the most remarkable and valuable collection of medicinal waters know n to the mountains of Virginia, cannot be otherwise than attractive toirvalids ot LotU sexessutlermg from debilities, diseases of the urinary organ-, uterine disorders, skin diseases, diseasYs of the liver and digestive functions, and all affections benefited by a relaxation from domestic habits and pursuits, accompanied by a few weeks' sojourn at such a healthful retreat as that of the Washington Springs.

The connection itself has become one ?>t the necessities <>f the day, and is essential to the welfare of the two line* which it unites. Had not those lines been compel le<i hy the recent prostration and by the destruction of their works to borrow capital under pledge* which render it impracticable that they should undertake this new improvement, they woiild undoubtedly have been its side proprietors. Such beiiij; the case, however, they have done what is more to the purpose so tar as our community generally t- Interested. They have guaranteed a minimum annual dividend to the subscriber of eight per centum per annum, free from taxation. The connection will cost about ?! 10, ooo ; and it is estimated from the actual business of the roads, isolated as they now are, that me present travel and trallic would, at the taritl fixed by the charter of the new Company, pay more than the above stated percentage upon tfiat sum. But were this not the rase, it is ev ident that the lines connected coil Id afford to pay such annual rental as It were, rather than forego the advantages to lie derived. , There are no corporations in our State better es- ' tablished, or which iu?ro fully enjoy the public confidence than these, and none which have more unvaryingly met their obligations. We ? an therefore, with unusual earneqtueas, urge the attractiveness of the Investment, which is safe, simple, in no degree speculative, and to which we sincerely hope that our own community will bo the oiibscri lo-rs. We would call special attention to the fact that the calculations of profits uro based upon actual experience, and thai while ihe subscriber is secure of a minimum clear profit of eight per centum, he M ill, in common with flie other corporalions mentioned, enjoy the fruits of the increase of business which the future is sure to bring. Those desirous of further information can obtain it on application to either .Mr Daniel, President Rlchluon 1, Fredericksburg and Potomac Kailroad Company, or Mr. Ellis, President Richmond and l'e-ter-ourg Railroad Company, at their otlices in Richmond. where copies ot the charter ot the proposed "Connection Company" can be seen, and to Mr. Sand ford, President of the Petersburg Kailroad Company. at his oftice in Petersburg.
