In The last Enquirer, you have fallen into two
rors, in your statement Of the proceedings of thS Hus
tings Court of this City, in the of Daniel, slave
accused of the murder OF James Drummond IL did
not appear in evidence that Daniel had mistaken Drum
mond ''for another person against whom he had
ccived some resentment" HIS resentment against
Dsummond, who had arrested him few minutes be-
FORE on the premises where the catastrophe occurre
and holding him by the collar had dem his pass
when Daniel violently extrica,ed himsslf, and in a
short time reurnsd mi psrrctra,ed the murier.-
Not knowing Drummonds name, however, he called,
probably by mistake, another name, to induce him TO
come out OF the house.-The words ''that motion
made in arrest OF Judgment, the ground of in
tormality in the warrants, implies only that war
rant necessary in such case but that the precise
forms are prescribed by laws whereas il appeared
gumen that no warrant is necessary to
for the trial OF slave. CIVlS.

time protesting against the impression which Civis
