The slave Case In SAN Francisco.

Considerable excitement has been caus-
ed in tbs city, by some legal proceed.
ings 10 regard to the negro Archy, claimed
as slaye by C. A. Stovali, and surren.
dered by the Supreme Court to his owner
several weeks ago. Stovall started with the
negro for New Orleans, on the steamer Or
izabs, on the 9TH of March. Before the
steamer had cleared the heads, however, an
officer with a writ of habeas corpus took
Arcby in custody, and brought him back
to this city Stovall was also arrested on
charge CT kidnapping, and brought back
This latter charge, having no foundation,
was dismissed next day by Police Judge
Coon. The habeas corpus for Archy was
made returnabe before Judge freedom, Of
the Court of Sessions, and after several con-
tinuauces it vas finally heard on the Il tn
inst. Judge freedom ordered the negro to
be set at liberty, but before he left the
court room he Was re-arrested by the l nj
ted States Marshal, ty virtue OF writ is-
sued under the fugitive slave law. ibis
caused great excitement among the coiored
population of the city, and sumo OF them
talked loud about rescuiDg Archy from the
officers. Little more than talking was done,
however, though for short time serious
riot was threatened. Archy was carried
before the United STATES Commissioner,
George Pen Johnston, who is expected t.

part of the closing scenes Of the extra
session in the House of Delegates, was quite
novel viz. the calling upon the Clerk for q
valedictory. This rare compliment WAS ellc.
ted by the fidelity, and the geutlemanly and
genial manners and temper of the Clerk
characteristics which never fail to win for
him the warm esteem and regard Of every
member of the Legislature. His courtesy
and generosity are never varying--under
none Of those numerous trials ofpaticnce and
temper, always incident to his office 10 the
modern House OF Delegates, does be for an
instant forget that he IL a gentleman, and his
department is uniformly marked by the same
official promptness and courtesy, under those
indescripable vexations which the House, in
the tickle and inconsiderate vagaries of its
'last days" heaps upon its Clerk. Colonel
Munford, who, for go many years, so ably
filled the office, preserved a like amenity and
patience under like trials, (now however,
somewhat aggravated;l and the House has
been most fortunate in having for his sue
cesor that excellent officer and estimable gen
tleman, st. George Tucker.--Dispatck.
