come, and the negroes are on the way. The per-
formance commences tomorrow. All parties seem
uncertain and perpIexed to the course to be per-
sued. The Spanish consul, resident Ut Boston,
Senior De Pega, came in this evening. He came for
the purpose Of denying the jurisdiction Of the court
and TO protest against the whole proceedings The
District Attorney, on the part OF the government,
will insist that the Africans should be delivered up
to the Federal officers for the purpose Of being
turned TO the claimants through the Spanish minis
ter and the blacks by their ne and best friend Mr.
Sedgewck will claim eirlibery the ground that
they were kings and princes In their own country,
and consequently had right to rob and murder
without hindraace or inolestation. What the final
result OF this controversy will be- it is impossible TO
predict with any degree Of Certainty. 1t is rumorcd
that the question will not be finally disposed Of at
this session Of the conrt. There will be precious
muss OF some sort or other, doubt, and will keep
v fully advised Of every thing that occurs.
The negroes who have been selected TO manage
the case IN conjunction with Mr.. Sedgewick, will
make some curious revelations il the truth can be
drawn from; them without distortion, by the inter-
prefer Bannah, who speaks English impcrfectly,
is 10 be present, and il he is thoroughly examined it
will be seen whether the "marvcllous fabrications
Of the Herald" as your statements have been mpu-
IDENTIFY termed by Tappan & CO., are, arer
the truth than the authentic sentations of Pro-
lessor Gibbs and the Rev. Mr. Ludlow. Bannah left
New maven with much reluctance and great appre-
hension. He was sick at the time of the previous
trial, and was not removed. "Me no g Hartford"
laid he, "dey kill me, any how-me will be kill in
New iiaven-no go to Harlford-you kill me FIRST"
But Col. Pendleton finally paciied the poor devil,
and he was quite happy on the way. l think, how
ever, that he was more afraid of Jnqua than of any
thing else He says Jinqua threatened 10 kill him
on board the schooner, because he interfered
the white man.
curious circumstance took place in the prison
two or three evenings SINCE and it is illustrative
Of the peculiarly es,imabe character Of Jnqua, per-
haps IT is worth relsting. A gentleman passing
through New Haven in the evening, and anxious to
see the "persecated and suffering Africans was
permitted by the keeper to so through the prison
alter the usual hour of locking up. In passing from
apartment to another the blacks all followed TO
see what was going on. The room occupied by the
three little girls visited last On leaving this
apartment, it was observed that the heroic Jinqua
had come up missing Colonel Pendleton, who APP
pears TO have had some reason to suppose that this
amiable and pleasant parsonage was not absolutely
immaculate, Immediately returned to the room where
the girls sleep, and found the hero concealed behind
the door He was driven out, looking as sheepish
asSawney when he was going shock again" from the
gentleman's garden
The aboltionists pretend TO suppose that their
pr0fegfe undertook to pass the night with the little
girls from motives of Misunderstanding they
afraid to sleep alone Perhaps so-the abolitonists
ought to know.
