Habeas Corpus Case of Sheriff Holt.

1t will be recollected that short time ago
one Michael Donnelly deliberately shot man by
the name OF Campbell, both residents of klamath
County, for which crime said Donnelly was com
mitted TO the custody of Sheriff Holt, OF Klamath
County, upon warrant Of commitment issued by
a Justice of the Peace of Klamath Sheriff Holt,
thinking that the ends Of justice would be better
served, and also that Donnelly would be more
secure. brought him hithcr and placed him in our
County Jail Before reaching this place, and
while at Big Flat. on Trinity river, Donnelly got
po,cerJW crazy. He talked of wild cats Vigi-
lance Committees and grizzly bears !! When
lodged in the Jail he looked wild and still talked
scattering His whole conduct betrayed insanity
and it was utterly impossible to look upon him
in any other light than that of madly insane
man. As such Sheriff Holt again took him into
custody and left for Stockton, but Donnelly more
crazy than ever took the wrong road to Stock
ton, and has not been heard Of sincc except that
in his madness he took the steamer at San Fran
risco and left the country
Sheriff Holt was arrested Immediately after
upon charge Of being accessory to the murder
Of Campbell, after the fact and placed in the
custody of Constable Barron of Klamath County.
Sheriff Holt was brought before Judge IIager on
writ of haJeas corpus, Of which the San Francis
CO Chronicle Of the llth inst. has the following:
Yesterday morning, Judge Hager was to have
rendered q decision on the application to dis
charge Sheriff. W. Holt who had been brought
before him on Thursday last, on writ of habcas
corpus, from the custody of Constable Barron of
klamath county. The question had been argued
on the day previous. but there were certain points
upon which Judge Hager was not satisfied he
therefore decided to re hear the argument on
yesterday afternoon. Messrs. Tinglcy and Wade
advanced the same views as they had presented
upon two former occasions, and District Attorney
Byrnc opposed the application for discharge
upon the same basis of argument as before, but
subsantiated his position By advancing new ideas
upon the subject.
Judge lIagcr thought that sufficient had been
made out to excite reasonable suspicion that
Holt had connved at Donnclly's escape His
whole conduct in placing him (Donnelly) in
Trinity Jail without transferring him to the Sher-
if Of that county. and subsequently taking him
from Jail, and obtaining an order for his trans
mission to Stockton, justified that suspicion
The question of his guilt or innocence was how
ever TO DC determined by the authorities of kla-
math, in which county, if at all, the felony had
been committed.
The prisoner was remaad,d to the custody of
Constable Barron of Klamath and Judge Hagcr
refused an application for bail on the ground
that the oifcnse charged was a felony, and only
bailable in the county where the crime was allie
god to have been committed.

Letter from Sacramento.

SACRAMENTO, April II. 1857.
Editors Journal Il am saved the labor Of
troubling you with a long letter this time. All
the news OF Importance, and which can possibly
interest the readers OF the JOURNAL will be found
in the following brief paragraphs.
The State Printing Bill has become a law. 1t
will reduce the expenses Of the State Government
about S4j, 900 per annum.
The next Bill Of Importance is the Bill impos-
ing certain stamp duties. The origination of this
Bill was the last ingenious resort of the House
committee Of Ways and Means to raise sufficient
revenue to keep the machinery OF government in
operation. The Bill TO district the State passed
the Assembly. This will secure to the North a
fair show for Congressman, |. 5. Senators, &c,
and prevent Conventions from picking all candi-
dates out of San Francisco.
In the Senate on the 9Th Bill to provide for
the payment of the State debt was reported back
by special committee. 1t appropriatcs $4,000 900.
The people are deeply interested in this bill. |
will send you copy for publication when il
