A case in which the testimony Of colored
man. was refused recently occurred in that
city. A well to do negro Was arrested on the
complaint OF 8 white man, and whom, in in
producing as his only witnesses several colored
men, was informed that their depositions
would not be heard by the court. On COM
rnunicating this fact to the officer Of the

Of q circular from Gen. Howard's headquar-
ters the local courts have no Jurisdiction in
such cases, the officers of the Freedmen 8
Bureau being instructed by said circular TO
adjudicate all difficulties arising between ne
groes or between negroes and whites. The
Justice still persisted in proceeding with the
trial, and the negro defendant not appearing
in court, in compliance with instructions Of
