THE MUrrNEERs THE SAN ANTONIO We
surprised to learn that the Captain Of the San
Antonio throwing obstacles in the way OF the ex-
animation and trial Of the muinecrs, by the proper
authorities Of the city, and that q formal demand
has been made for their delivery. upon the Mayor.
We can BY no means understand this--murder has
been committed within the PRECINCTS OF New Or
leans, and the perpetrators, having been appre-
hended by the authorities, should most unquestioh-
ably receive their trial by the tribunals Of the pace
where the murder was committed We do not
know what course the Mayor intends to pursne;
bat we certainly think that he should not deliver
the prisoners up without trial under our laws!
We have yet to learn that vessel at anchor At
Algiers is within the limits Of New Orleans. We
do act know that the fact is material to the question
above mootcd, that the murder was committed yn-
der the Texas flag on board a national vessel, at
anchor without the boundary Of our corporation
(inasmuch as the accused were arrested by eur Of
fcsrs, and within our bounds), but if il be, Capt
Seegsrs should certainly mt be blamed for basing
his demand upon it We suppose, when all the
evidence shall be adduced, and the law examined,
that grave judges will announcelthe decision which
the said testimony and the Law authorize in the case
