r. The CASE OF THE SLAVE GEORGE comes mp
this morning in the Court Of Oyer and ermine at 10!
o'clock Messrs JAY snd WHITE. we understand, are
retained as counsel on behalf of George An attempt
was made at rescue Saturday but this we have
confidence enough the humane feeling oil our citizens to
believe will create any prejudice against the slave
He of course as not concerned in IL Much, however
as would condemn any attempt TO interfere with the
regular course of justice there eNtcnuang circum
stances in this case which should be considered 1t Will
be remembered that George before the court
on Thursday morning. and that his has been post
poned from day to day by request OF counsel ON oatu
day morning generally understood that 1t would
positively come up day but most unwely and unne
cessarily third party got out new writ under winch
the alleged slave taken backward and forward from
prison to court and prison till few OF the
coloTed people very naturally became fearful from
these conflicting proceedings tina, something was wrong
and exssperated at the thought OF the being given
up as slave through yickery and fraud, made un
fortunate attempt Several OF them
in jail Tor this offence and these mitigating circurn
stances we trust will have due weight their trial
We are confident that difficulties would have ensued
bu for the confusion created BY the Interference by
new writ with the regular proceeding which mad been
instituted.
