We stated In our last the arriyalof Burr s
Blannerhassett at Chilicothe on the authority
of a il1arginal note on print of that place Of
the l2thsult. We have since perused several
letters, of Subsequent date, whose entire ST.
lencc on this point render their arrival at best
Edisputable. The latest Of these letters is dat
I ed the 10th. Some of the letters say Burr
and Blannerhassett had DO til forfeited theirrc-
! cognizance; others that theirnafl1es hadbeen
Gales every morning, and their default 10 cd. Z
The grand jury. had been engaged for two
weeks IN examining evidence respecting Burr
and Llannethassett, and, it was supposed,
would very soon report to the court. Scarce
" doubt was entertained of 5iIIs being found
against them and others; but whether for
trcasonor mis- demeanor is not said RIessrs.
Baldwin and Burnett have been employed as
counsel for the accused at a. fee of thousand
dollars, and Messrs. Bibb and Creighton, the
| attorneys OF the districts of Ohio and Ken
lucky, arc counsel for the prosecution. The
c0urt had received a letter from Luther Mar
| tinrcquesting that the recognizances may be.
(, respited until the next term, when he assures
the court the parties Will appear. twas,
however, thought this request would be re-
iected.
Onthe frat day Of the term, On It's being
! moved to have the recognizances Of Burr and
Blannefhassett called, the application was re-
sisted BY their counsel, who particularly sug-
gested that the recognizarce of Blannerhas-
lsset was defective, inasmuch as he was not re-
cognfsed to appear on any particular day or at
any particular term. The objection was re-
sisted On two grounds-frst, that the accused
Eceuld not be heard by their counsel until their,
appearance was entered and secondly that
il the recog nizance was defective, that defect
could only be taken advantage of, when an &C
ton OF debt was commenced or scire faeias
sued out on the bond Itwas understood that
the argument on this question would not be
gone into until the Grand Jury shad found a
hill.
Whispers were circulating at Chilicothe,
| that the conspirators weresassembling in force
at Orleans, and were more sanguine than e.
yer in their expectations of success.
