AN lNcIDENT.-A Washington letter in the
Epening Post narrates the following incident
which took place at the capital of the freest and
greatest country on earth:
AS the cars were departing for the Baltimore
station, on Thursday evening, my attention was
called to an occurrence which was in some de-
gree parallel to Longs case, and deserves to be
made public A respectable free colored man, in
appearance, had been serving waiter at one
of the city hotels He had recently come from
Baltimore. There was no question of his free
dom, none as to his character, but he was in
formed upon as a fellow who was seeking TO
earn his own bread by honest industry forty miles
from his birth place. He was arrested and the
otfense was proved.
He was ordered to give bonds in one thousand
dollars for his good behavior to leave the place
in twenty -four hours. But like many other re-
spectacle men, be could get nobody to bind him.
self in the penal sum of one thousand dollars, TO
insure the corporation the people of w ashngton,
for the good health, good conduct. and success of
this black man. He sorrowfully took up his bun
die and went TO the Baltimore cars, to shake off
the dust of bis feet against the place. But he
was there met with the information that he could
not enter the cars to leave the District, unless he
gave bond for thousand dollars, with two sufh-
cient securities, that he was not a slave. Here
was another illustration of the advantages of be-
ing in the freest country earth. A thousand
dollars to stay, a thousand dollars to Co. and the
poor object of so many attentions with not half
so many cents. Imprisonment is, | believe, the
penalty for noncompliance with one or the other
demand. What was the issue of his difficulties,
| do not know.

The pfcDonogh VIII Case.

From The NeW.Orlean6 Plcayune OF JAM
JUDGE BUcHAEAN-State Of Louisiana rs. The
Executors Of John McDonogh ct als-On a rule
20 auash the sequestration. His Honor yesterday
morning delivered a written opinion in this case,
In which the State, by Mr.. Isaac Johnson, the At
torney.G GENERAL, had fled petition claiming that
the estate Of the late John McDonogh had, by
reason of the non acceptance OF the cities OF New.
Orleans and Baltimore OF the succession, lapsed
10 the States Of Louisiana and Maryland. The
Attorney. General, for reasons set forth in the
supplemental petition, prayed that writ OF Sc
ouestraton might issue, and all the property Of
the estate be taken possession OF by the sheriff,
until the relative rights Of the claimants shall be
determined.
The Executors took rule to quash the seques
tration. on the ground that they had been duly
qualified and put in possession OF the property,
the Selling which could not be taken from them:
The opinion OF Judge Buchanan is very able, and
occupies over seventeen pages We give, how
ever the substance of the decision.
The Court decided that by the provisions OF the
will the executors could under no circumstances
claim the seizing Of the real Estate the tesla
tors intention being to vest the sezng OF that por
ton OF bis property 10 certain agents and commis-
sioners 10 be appointed by the universal legatees,
TO wit the cities Of New Orleans ind Baltimore.
The Court, after surveying the whole grounds
advanced by the counsel in their arguments,
comes to the conclusion that as the action Ia the
Federal Court brought by the heirs opposing the
executors is still pending, aud the suit by the
State Of Louisiana against the city is yet TO be
decided, the sequestration should be sustained
until the final settlement Of these suits 1t felt
that the Court of Chancey, if applied to, would
grant the sequestration; and that instead Of re-
ceiver being appointed, the Sheriff. being by our
laws a judicial receiver, there will be no necss-
atty for an extra appointment Of en- officer % be
made. The rule was therefore dismissed.
