ABOUT FoErNIGHr srxcK, We mentioned that |
one G. W. Morris had been hrrested here by order Of
the Chief Of Police, on receipt Of renusitfon from
the Governor Of Kentucky, charging raid Morris |
with having perpetrated heavy frauds il that stste
obtaining goods under false pretence, etc.; that a.
Morris was arrested before the necessary warrant
came from Gov. Wickline, he soed ont : VIII 81
babeas corpus before Judge Duvigneaud; that Ch,ef
Adams, not receiving the warrant, and finding that /
the warrant had been sent to the Sheriff, had |
Sheri's officer and the warrant in the Court when
the habeas corpus was tried and that soon q the
Judge ordered the prisoners discharge, on the
ground that be had been arrested and imprisoned
without the Governors warrant, said prisoner Was
Immediately re-arrested, there in Court, By the
Sherifs officer with the executive warrant and car
ried back to prison. We further mentioned that the
habeas corpus engine would pc pat another track,
and again brought to the rescue Of the muchnjured
and falsely. detained Morris.
The turr-.abe of the habeas corpus engine must be
very slow one, for it was only Friday last that
said engine again came to the rescue. The track, or
rather the switch-oT, was this; that though the
Governors warrant was genuine enough, it was void,
and Of no effect, because not accompanied by the
formal requisition from the Governor Of Kentucky
The writ was issued and fixed for trial yesterday.
As soon as the writ was issued, on Friday, Chief
Adams telegraphed to Gov. Wickife to send down
the Kentucky Governors requisition, Or certified
copy thereof, in order TO prevent Morris from being
again released through the oopholes Of law and the
ingenuity o. lawyers
Yesterday morning letter was received from the
Governor, perenptorly refusing to transmit the Ken
lucky requistion, on the ground that bis warrant
was sufficient that IN no other State was the Gov
ernors warrant required to be backed BY ether docu
ments, and that the judiciary had no more right to
interfere with his executive acts than he the execu-
tive had to interfere with the acts Of the judiciary
This being communicated to Judge Duvigneaud
the trial of the habeas corpus was indefinitely post
poned and the wrongfully arrested and muchinjured
Morris was sent back to prison.

new building at the corner OF st. Charles and Julia
