The Late Afray.-JameS Lee was Yesterday
morning arragned before Recorder Caldwell on
the charge of stabbing and dangerously wounding
Philip Liner, with intent to kill him. As we
stated yesterday morning, the ARRAY occurred
about half past II o'clock on Thursday night on
Gravier street, between Philippa and Circus
streets. Some three or four men were engaged in
the affair, and as yet we have positive evidence
that Lee inflicted the wound. Waterman Beecher
who arrested the accused, testified that he was
| about half square from the scene of the fracas
when he heard the cry of watch" and he imme-
diately proceeded to the spot He saw several
men engaged in scutfle and saw Lee run, fol-
followed by two three other men, Lee had no
hat, and his clothes stained with blood when
witness overlook him the corner of Circus and
Common streets. When Lee was arraigned he
strongly asserted his innocence and his counsel
contended that the Recorder empowered to
| admit him to bail while the charge was so vague
and before any evidence had been received The
Recorder could not admit the legality of this argu-
men and said that he must retain the prisoner un-
til he could learn the condition of the wounded
man. b b. Lee, counsel, then asked that the case
should be sent before the First District Court at
once. The Recorder would not do this, but said
he would send the papers to Judge Larue, in order
that the accused might be admitted to bail GER
tifcate obtained from the physician attending
Liner but it merely stated that he was unable to
leave his bed Lee was admitted to bail yester-
day afternoon, by Judge Larue, in the sum of
$4,000.

yesterday morning, the charge of cruelty hest.
ing and badly injuring a slave belonging to M
Malisan. Counsel was engaged on both sides, and
on side it was contended that the prosecution
could only be commenced befor, Justice Of the
Peace, for the recovery Of the fine imposed by the
Black Code, and the value of the slaves time while
he was unable to work. On the other hand il wa
argued that, independent Of all the provisions OF
the Black Code, the State had claim on the ac-
eused or,offending against criminal laws In con-
sequence of the absence Of a material witness, the
case was postponed until the 9th inst.

was some time since charged before Recorder
Genois with stealing the sum of Sl59 from Clara
Hassinger on Burgundy street. The accused was
admitted to bail after her arrest, and when the case
was called for examination yesterday morning, she
did not appear. Several witnesses were examined,
and the larceny was clearly proved. A gentleman
present stated that the accused had given 5000 to
the person who signed her bond, and had left the
oity. The bond was sent before the First District
Court for collection, but we confess we should feel
very much surprised if it was collected.
