VIM. M. COENELLY RELEASED.

The term of twenty days, to which William NJ.
Connolly was condemned by Judge Lcavitt for the
christian act Of feeding and sleltcring too poor
fugitiycs, expired on the llth inst, when the pris
.oner was released from confinement. This Judi
cial outrage seems to have especially awakened the
excitement and indignation of the Germans, who
gave expression to their feeling by a meeting and
procession in honor of Mr.. Connolly and his chris.
tian act, on ,he occasion ofhis release. As it was
raining ut noon, the hour Of the expiration of his
sentence, the honor of n formal escort from the Jail
was postponed till evening, when no was received
by q company of COO Germans, members of the
Turneyerein, and Arbeiter Nerein. German Associ-
ations), aRd conducted with banner music and nu.
merous torches to the Turner's Hall. Says the
Cincinnati Gazette, 1.-The Hall was crowded to its
utmost capacity and though the meeting nominally
adjourned about half past nine o'clock, really
continued in session till q late hour, singing the
Marseilles Hymn and kindred SONGS" Address.
es were made by Messrs. Jacob, Connolly, Stallo,
Geo. Thompson and one or two others.
MIR. Connolly in his speech took the liberty of
showing up the District Attorney, who though now
so conscientiously devoted to his kidnapping du,
ties, was once of quite another opinion, and in his
own estimation the sheet anchor and forlorn hopo
of abolitionists and all such persons as those to
whom Mr.. Connolly afforded protection. This
Mathews, the now legal kidnapper. was DR.. Baily's
successor as editor of the old Philanthropist, which
finally changed it's name to the Herald, but was
still regarded as the representative of the aboli-
tionism o5 Ohio. Mr.. Connolly in his speech
which the Gazette says twas like all the rest, in.
tensely an,i-slavery," charged Mr.. Mathews with
melting him, Connolly, to run away when out en-
bail. Probably lie desired another fat job for the
Marshals in hunting him up and bringing him
back from New York. Mr.. c.. also took the liber.
ty of reading from one of Mr.. Matthews old editori,
ale, in the Herald, written some ten or eleven
= years ago. 1t must have sounded strangely as COM

for Ohio.

This German demonstration is a most cheering
indication Of the strong hold which the anti SLAYER,
sentiment has secured in tho hearts of the NOR,

of good cheer; the principles of freedom are no
only extending themselves but are gatherin,
