About ten mouths since,. two gentlemen of that city . agreed lo tho following conditions : If tho Federal forces did not capture Rich mond within thirty days, from that date, hs '.var, to f?ive bi-1 opjiMneut a tingle sound ea table apple : If RiCbuiti?i9 hold out but eixty, he was to give him two apples, and RO on, donbl?^jptho number for eedi month, until Richmond was taken, to thc end of time, if that event did not.occf?r before.
