The CINCINNATI SLAVE CASE came up on
the 3lst ult., before Commissioner Pendery.-
Mr.. Jolitte, counsel for the slaves, wished to
have served on them State warrant to arrest
the slaves for lnurder,-in order 10 take them
from United States custody.
The Commissioner said, in order to prevent
collision of the State aad Federal authori.
ties, he would not, as yet, surrender the
slaves.
MrJoliffe still pressed his motion. 1t might

he should demand that they should be given
