ANOTHER CASE OF KIDNAPPING IN PHILADEL-
PHIA-ln the Criminal Court in Philadelphia on
Friday, George II. Albert and Frisby Price.
were put on trial for kidnapping Casharine Thomp-
son and child, colored, some time since. The IN.
0uirer saws: The testimony against the accused
was strong and at about clock last evening.
Judge Parsons charged the Jury at great length.
He laid down the law pertaining to kidnap-
ping cases clearly and infinitely, and reviewed TIE
testimony in all its phases as given by the prose-
cution. The charge was very able one, aud
throughout strongly against the prisoners, wniie
in the review OF the evidence. The Jury then re-
tired and in few minutes returned with YER
diet ofguty against both defendants. Ia the alb
sence Of the Jury, the Judge informed the counsel
that the Grand Jury had yesterday found q true
bin against the defendants, for conspiracy 70
kidnap The counsel for the prisoners asked that
Albert might be admitted TO bail on the later
charge Judge Parsons asked how much pan ne
was already under, and was informed 20, 600. he
then ordered him to give additional baiin sio,ooo.
The gentleman who was bis bail on trial, was Of
fersd AZ security, but tho Judge peremptorily re-
fnsed 10 receive him. and stated that he must have
another person in addition. The verdict OF guilty.
however, settled the matter, and both prisoners
were sent to Moyamensing.
