New Trial Granted In the ArriSOn
Case.

SsSSs
By a Cincinnati Gazette, of the 9Th
we learn that q new hearing has been
granted by the Distric, Court. in the
Arrison case. The Gazette 10 Of the
opinion tho, Arrison 10 now most likely
beyond the jurisdiction Of all the courts
Ii says:
The Court was unanimously Of opin
ion that there was error in the charge
and that it would be wrong 10 permi. st
glaring an oversight or error to pass
The case would. therefore, be remandet
to the Cour, Of Common Pleas for a e v
trial.
This case, as il now stands. is an ano
malous one. In consequence Of this or
der remanding it 10 the Cour, of Com.
mon Pleas. it canno 60 back to thu
Criminal Court, even should that b.
finally decided still in being. The Ac
Of the Legislature transferring the bust
ness Of the Criminal Cour. 10 the Couil
Of Common Pleas is 90 defective tina, il
may be declared TO be imperative. OF
entirely null and void, ard il so, Arrisor
cannot be tried by tina. court. So the
case may come to be entirely out Of ,hs
jurisdiction of any tribunal.
A question may arise as to whether
the District Court can recall the ordeI
made yesterday morning. and remand ,h,
case to another court; but before the lie,
gal existence Of the Criminal Cour: il
decided upon, the District Cour vii
probably have adjourned, and will no
meet again until September.
Should. in the meantime. the act trans
ferring the business of the Crimina
Court be declared void, and Arrison lheI
be brough. forth on . writ Of ha6eu'
corpus. we do not see how any cour
could refuse to grant his discharge.
So between defective enactments 0
the legislature. and erroneous charges o
the Judge Of the Criminal Court, al
laws may become imperative. and tn
grsvest OF all charges seems likely Il
escape not only punishment, bu. eve,
trial.
