ca LOCAL NEWS. Noriez.—After baving for many years printed the lists of letters remaining uncalled for in the pest office of this city, (under the law author- tring their pnbliteation fn the newspaper the largest circnlation within the usual delivery of the office,) the proprietor of the Star hes at length felt compelled to decline their further insertion, because of the great space they have come to occupy, and of the fact that for months past he bas been forced to lay over on each eceasion, when printing the lists, advertisements the insertion of which would have paid at least double as much as tLe law allowed bim for the ketter List. In addition to this positive intary loss by ‘their insertion since those lists bave come to be 2s large os the New York city letter lists. they bave entirely—on the day on which they were printed — defeated his purpose of making the Star always a newspaper—news being its well-known speciality.

Dunawin was tried —— isa well known citiz-n. and was for- merly in = Possession of considerable property, which he inherited through the death of bis fetber. He was for awhile in businers bere, and in comfortable circumstances. A young man still, he bas a wifeand three children, and his friends were astonished at bis arrest for the robbery of Mr. Joseph Travers The evidence was in substance that on the night of the 27th ult Traversand Dunawin were at sev- ral restaurants in company. and that they drank together several times; that Travers was tight, and Dunawin not bent 3 drunk; that they left a restau- tant about 11 o’clock p. m.; that Dunawin had a stout cane In his hand at that time; that they had not proceeded far before Travers was knocked down by a blow on the back of bis heed; and that while be was insensible his pockets were rified of a sum of money in gold and notes (fifty or sixty dollers.) and finally, that Dun»win subsequently confesséd being the perpetrator of the robbery. stated that be was drunk at the time, and offered #100 to Travers to compromise the matter, because of the disgrace which would otherwise fall upon ais (Dunawin’s) wife end children. The case was submited to the jury without argu- mentand after asbort absence from tbe court- recom they returned with a verdict of “guilty as indicted.’ Judge Crawford, in sentencing the prisoner, briefly reviewed the evidence against him, and said it was a singular thing that with prorerty of a family a wife and three children under his roof he should be guilty of such a seri- ous offence. It was the legitimate result, however, of going from restaurant to restaurant and drink- ing at unseemly hours, a practice which if fol- lowed led in most cases to the felon’s cell or to the gallows. = — feorsaley aa sentenced to three years confinement at rin the penitentt to take + fect from the 16th inst., (to-aay.) ay Edward Conway, government Wagon master, charged with stealing oats and hay from the gov- ernment was uitted acq' Charles Miller, convicted of stealing a pair of second-band pants, of the value of $2, from Au- gustus Frank, was senterfced to § months 1m- —— im the county jail, and to pay a fine of In the case of John Murphy, the youth con- vieted on Thursday of stealing 240 pairsof gaunt- lets, (military gloves,) of the value of $140, Mr Charies H Utermeble, b's counsel, moved for a new trial on the grounds—ist, because the verdict ‘was against the evidence; 2d, because of evidence discovered since the trial of what tbe age of de- fendant was, (under fourteen years,) and for other reasons Mr Utermeble argued his motion, and con- tended that it was Incumbent on the District At- torney to prove the amenability of the prisoner, and it was not necessary for the defence to prove bis non-age District Attorney Carrington argued against the motion; and the hour of adjournment having ar- rived, and Mr. Norris desiring to be heard, court adjourned Deatn or Ma.

There will bea single track, withsufficient turnouts to accommodate the camps in Virginia. 1t is supposed that the road will be peration inthree weeks. By this arrangement It Is designed to supply our army from the without change of cars This morning nearly two bandred laborers and others from western New York arrived by the ears, to work upon the road. The work thus far has been mostly in taking up the old track upon portions of the road between the Long Bridge and Alexandria, ratory to relaying it to make connection, without break of geuge, with the Manassas Gap rord, over which we baye control as far as Springfield station, and the Loudon and Hampshire road, upon which we are running cars out es far as Falls Church, towards Leesburg.

A box of candles was found by the police, supposed to have been stolen Bosvs Coin.—There are parties in this city at the present time who are industriously engaged in circulating a counterfeit gold dollar, the imita- tion of the genuine being good, but the compo- nent parts being pewter with some other men, and galvanized. Some of these pieces were of- fered by a soldier yesterday at the public house of Mr. Killian, on Eleventh street, but Mr. K. de- tected the imposition. The soldier had received them at a store on the avenue for change in some purchases he had made, and on ascertaining them to be boons returned them. The storekeeper re- marked if they were not good he had been taken in fora much larger amount. We presume this gang is the same that has been visiting the camps and changing Treasury notes in the hands of the mead soldiers with this bogusstuff. Look out for em.

King arrested Isazc U!mann on suspicion of steal- log watches. Severai new silver ones were found in his possession. Subs+quently, Merrick Meyer was arrested as an accomplice. They were taken before Justice Donn, when it appeared from the evidence that Meyer and Ulmann were reddling watches without a license, and the watches found were part of their stock Justice Donn dismissed the case of larceny, and officer King transferred bis prisoners to the Metropolitan police, who took them before Justice Walter, of the Fourth Ward, who fined Meyer $30 and costs for selling without a license, as the principal, and released Ulman.
