HABgAs CORPUS CASE,

The Superior Court for Washington county, Virginia,
Judge b. Es,il presiding-adj ourned on wednesday
last The concluding days Of the session of this court
were occupied in The discussion OF very interesting
case in which the most eminent legal gentlemen o!
the bar have been strenuously engaged. II was the
case Of John N. Humes, Esq, who peiitioned to be
discharged from the operation of certain ca 50 s. GO in

in condition of great debility and i'll health, the Judge
stated the opinion Of the court with elaborate precision
and uncommon ability The "wear and tear OF the

Judge-who certainly possesses, in our poor Judgment,
