The following is the card addressed by
the Havana prisoners TO the American
Public, in regard to the conduct of our
Consul at that port. If their statement is
correct-and we do not well see how it
could be otherwise-his conduct was abb
solutely barbarous, and deserves immedi-
ate expulsion from Office. The people of
this country will hereafter look with detes-
tation upon his name.-Rich. IIhig.
10 he american Pu6iic.--We the IN
designed, prisoners incarcernated- in the
city prison at Havana, on account of our
late Cuban Expedition, under the command
of General Lopez, cannot withhold an ex-
preston OF our feelings towards the Amer
lean Consul. Mr.. Allen +. Owen of Geor-
gia, now at this place. Since our arrival
at this place, he has hoRored US once with
his presence, but since that time, although
repeatedly solicited, has always steadily re-
fused to revisit us, either in his private or
official capacity. Placed as we are, we
feel an act of this kind far more deeply
than if otherwise circumstanccd. How
to account for it, we know not, but can
only ascribe it to that worst of all feelings,
inhumanity, or that more degrading still,
cowardice.
We write this that our fellow country
men at home may know what kind of a
man is placed at the head Of their affairs
at this place. Signed by: Robert NJ. Gri-
der, Captain Commanding Company B;

The trial ofJos. Davis, charged with the
murder Of J. III. Wilson was in progress,
at the time of going to press, before the
Circuit court of Charlotte. The defendant
made application for the removal of the
cause to some other Court for trial, assign.
ing, as his reason, that a fair trial could not
be obtained in Charlotte. The Court O.
verrulcd the motion for the change of
renae, mainly on the ground, as we learn,
that the Court had heard no sufficient evil
dence that full Justice would not be done
the prisoner, by any jury, which might pro-
badly be empanneled; but that, ii in the
progress Of the cause, it should appear.
that fair trial could not he obtained, the
Court would again hear the motion. The
jury was easily obtained and the trial is pro-
crossing. NIessrs. Marshals aud FloIr-

Judge OF the Supreme Court,

We are gratiiicd to be enabled to an
nounce that the President has appointed
BENJAMIN RAND CURTIs, Esq, of the Suf-
folk bar, to fill the vacancy in the Supreme
Court Of the United States that has been
created by the deceasc of Mr.. Justice
Woodbury.. This appointment will give
very general satisfaction. Mr. Curtis is
young man, but little more than forty wears
of age; and the desire to appoint a young
man, who might have the reasonable pros
poet Of a long judicial term, has induced
TIE President to pass over the claims Of
many distinguished gentlemen, from among
whom he would otherwise have been
pleased with the opportunity of selecting
the occupant of so eminent a position
The professional attainmcnts and the high
personal qualifications of Mr.. Curtis are
too well known to the bar not only of New
England but Of the nation, to make it ne
ccssary more than to alude to them. The
carly and decided stand taken by Mr. Cur
It's in support of the constitution and laws,
on recent important occasion, and the
national and conservative disposition that
he has manifested whenever and wherever
he has been prevailed upon to mingle in
public affairs, have also constituted a claim
for the distinguished honor that could not
be overlooked by the Administration.
