Grief Julfiee faid, he had in Eore meafure
anticipated this queition. and had reflected up
on 1t; his opinion was this /; a paper 20 go be-
fore the Grand or Petit Jury, mum be relevant
to the cafe, even if its materiaii,y were rot

can be drcyphered before the Grand Jury,
why not before The court Let il then be de-

Mr. Hay. Is :here no difference between
any other paper, and cyphered letter proved

Cbfcf Jn,fiee. Still this letter may not be
relevant TO the prsfsnt cafe.
Mr. Hay then directed Erick Bollman TO be
CARED INTO court, that he might be ,nterrogatrt,
as to rs contents.s He roquehrd that the court
would indulge him for Mort time, until he
could execute fome important buiners before
inc Court OF Appeaa.-The court accordingly
iuipended the proiecution.
AT haif after one, the court again returned
the buhnefs but neither DR.. Bollmau, nor Mr.

a few minutes after the court had returned
its buiipeis, Mir. J. Randolph entered at the
head OF the Grand jury. He addrcGtd the

have thought proper, to appear before you, TO

witnefs, is in the po1eiIion of the court
Cbisf JE2ice obierved, that as the letter was
wanting to ehaS!iih its identity, it WAS a rele-
