BAlTlNoRE. NOV,


In the Court Of Appeals this morning Mr..
Latrobe, on behalf of the new Commissions
ers. announced that the writ of habeas corpus
had been served on the Warden Of the Jail
tnis morning, aud added that he had inst
learned that the Warden bad been at the
court house this morning without the prison.
ers; that in reply to an inquiry made Of him
be had said his means of conveyance were
exhausted and that he said the writ WAS is
sued by him at four o clock on Saturday even
ing. but il appeared that for some reason they
were no, served until this morning. Mr..
Shelley begged that the Court would wait q
reasonable time farther for the Warden to
make his return aud produce the prisoners
At 1880 O'Clock the prisoners not appearing,
Mr. Harwitz, on behalf of Sheriff Thompson,
said: 1--WE have now waited one hour and a.
half after the hour named for the return OF
the writ; it apparent that the Warden
was seeking pretext for delay; he therefore,
on behalf Of his client, the High Sheriff, pre-
pared petition that his honor would COM
mand the leputy Sheriff to forthwith bring
the Warden before the Court together with
the High sheriff Mr.. Shelley said that he
would. on behalf of his clients, have q simi
lar petition 10 offer.
Mr. Alexander, the counsel for the old
Comm oners. now appeared and expressed
q deae. to be heard on the subject. He un-
.deretood that the Warden of the jail was now
in consul.ssion with counsel, and he had no
doubt some return to the writ would shortly
be made
Messrs. Shelley, L.trobe and Harwitz de-
sire TO know if Mr.. Alexander could inform
them what the return would be?
Mr. Alexander replied that he was not the
counsel for the Warden and could not say.
He hoped, and expected, however, that by
one o clock such return would be made as
would render any further proceedings here
unnecessary.

A recent London letter to tho Cncinn s.i
Commercial says:
One thing is very manifest in England, and
in fact throughout Europe, at the presen,
moment-the crushed hopes of Confederate
refugees, bond holders and sympathizers are
reviving. London Is an admirable barometer
of Confederate intentions and prospects. |
have unusual opportunities ior inspecting that
barometer, aud testify that the English and
American tecessionists here, who, on the
surrender OF Lee, despaired Of the Southern
Confederacy, now openly cast away that de-
fpalr, and avow their full expectation OF
having another c,ril war, and another and .
better chance OF succeeding in their traitor
Gus deTigns.
II is astonishing, too, how thorougly and
swiftly this idea has been disseminated among
the general English public. The lecture
season has now opened, aud with It your cor
respondent is darting back and forth between
London and the provincial towns; and com
ing in contact in this way with q great variety
ot minds, am struck with the unlversality OF
the impression among the English people
that We are TO have another civil war at>
tributeSthis Impression to several causes: the
activity OF Confederate takers and writers in
England, the quotations in this country from
the indigo rhetoric of Henry j. Raymond,
the exaggerated statements of the London
press, aud of their correspondents in Amer
lea, and, perhaps, more than all things else,
the violence Of Andrew Johnsons stump
speeches.
These speeches have turned the stomachs
OF the Presidents admirers in England, and
admirers he has none left. The Tory papers
and such other unprincipled, time serving,
catch penny journals as the Times and Teie-
graph. have praised Andrew johnson to such
degree that they had quite used up the vo>
cabulary Of laudations but when he started
out on that wonderful tour to the grave of
Douglas 10 journey which had ~ little to do
with the nominal object as Douglas own tour
in 1860 had to do with visiting his mother J
the London papers began to grow pale and
ague struck; his Cleveland speech thoroughly
frightened them; but that wild explosion Of
bacchanalian blasphsmy at St. Louis finished
the business. They md the '.humbe indi
viduaf' IS difficult OF digestion as the whale
found Jonah, and they have now treated him
in the same way.

Mr.. Harrison, prosecuting lawyer for the
Crown on the Fenian trials, received a letter
to-day giving information ofa plot to assas-
sinale Judge Wilson and Others concerned in
the Fenian trials. Considerable religious an
imosity is shown regarding the proceedings.
The fact that Rev. Mr., Ltmsden, Protestant,
ia acquitted, while Rev. Mr. Mcmahon, Cssh.

on.
The FeniAn trials were resumed ct noon
to>day. David Drummond was the first
placed in the dock But was postponed on
account Of the absence of witnesses. Benz.
Parry, boy twelve years of age was the next

An ENGLISH JOURNAL on THE
ELECTlOSS.

We are in the receipt of the London Morn
ing Star for October Is, containing an edito-
rial on the result of the October elections.
We are doubtless indebted for it to the
thoughtful courtesy OF Mr.. Leighton, who
visited this city during the past summer. The
work done East and West to day, will We ap.
prehend but the more thoroughly justify this
English writer's estimate of the American
character and purpose:
president johnson probably counted
few weeks ago upon carrying the majority Of
the nation with him. We're there fewer
newspapers, were there no intervening cleo
tions, be might perhaps indulge the same
hope still, and so be led on to some act Of
positive usurpation. But his eyes are by this
time opened, and he will doubtless endeavor
to reconcile himself to the condition Of things
which he cannot alter. The American peo.
pie are evidently determined that the old and
long standing cause Of internecine dispute
shall be absolutely rooted out before they con-
sent to welcome back to their full civil rights
the conquered rebels of the South. In other
words, they are not going to fing away at the
polling booths the cause for which they fought
and won in the field.
$50 ends. we trust, the Presidents at
tempt at dictatorship. America is not a place
where dictators have much chance, nor In any
case was Andrew johnson = man likely TO be
elevated to such position. Had he been
the great soldier and great statesman Of the
crisis all in one; had he been Grant and
Lincoln combined; had he been rs decidedly
the hero and the leader Of tie American Re.
public as the First Consul of the Republic Of
France, we do not believe that even in thst
case the people OF the United States would
for a moment have allowed their political
rights and the functions Of their Congress to
be usurped by him. But he had no such
claims. His best services to the Union we're
after all little more than local in their char
acter. His Presidency is an accident I, is
not one OF the happiest devices of the Amer
ican constitution that the death of Presi-
dent suddenly, and, as . matter Of course,
hoists the Vice President to the vacant place.
Chance raised johnson to the chief magis-
tracy Of the Republic, as it might have raised
Aaron Burr, the murderer OF Hamilton, and
the great rebel against the constitution Of the
United States. II seems evident that the po-
sition to which be was so suddenly called was
too dizzy for johnson s nerves, and that he
lost much Of the self control and stern prac-
tcal judgment he had previously shown. His
recent tour was . failure, and towards the
end became almost burlesque. The longer
he .stumped' the more friends he talked
away from him; and the Pennsylvanis cleo
t,ons have only sealed the long-imminent fate
of his vain and arrogant scheme. Let us
hope that be will make the best Of the results,
and during the rest of his Presidential career
be eonten, faithfully to serve the Republic
and toobey the constitution

The Mexican Minister has received letter
from Vera Cruz. dated Oct. 18th, by way OF
New Orleans, stating that the Emperor Max>
imilian left the city of Mexico on the 23d
inst, resigning verbally in favor of General
Baizine.
1t will be recollected that several days ago
the ex Secretary of the Interior, Mr.. Harlan,
published the defense of the sale Of the Cher
okee neutral lands to the American Immigrant
company Of Connecticut This morning Gen.
Ewing replies to that gentleman denying that
he stated to Mr.. Harlan that If these lands
were sold as the lands Of the Secretary and
Texas he aud his friends could make money
out of the transactions. The main pointsfln
the protest OF himself and Jno. W. Wright,
Attorney for the Cherokee Indians against
the sale, was that, according to the treaty the
lands were not to be sold at all without ap-
praisement and advertising and competing
bids They we're TO be sold in a body for
cash. The General replied at length to other
portions of Mr.. Harlan's defense.

A Tribune New Orleans special says it il
stated on very good authority that the Preei-
dent has ordered Gen, Sheridan not TO make
any arrests under Gen. Granite famous order,
which effects forty four parties accused Of
committing murders on the 18th of July in
this city Il is well known that afSdavits
were placed in Gen. Sherdan's hands over
two months ago. accusing certain parties OF
murder. and the above accounts for his not
acting on the matter. The appointment OF
Judge Morgan, notorious Copperhead, as
l. s. District Attorney, will etfectually pre-
vent the prosecution of numerous parties held
for trial by the L. S. Commissioners, under
the Civil Rights Bill. Official information
reached Gen. Sheridan yesterday of numer-
ous murders and outrages committed against
Union men in the parish of ST. Saundry.
Gen. Sheridan leaves for Texas tomorrow
on important, business. He will be absent
four or FIVE days.

dissatisfaction exists on the verdict in the
case of Lumsden. The Catholics Of this city
assert boldly that Lumsden WAS discharged
on religious grounds, and that the evidence
against him WAS stronger than that against
McMahon. The Hon, B. Delerany, of Mon

has been engaged to defend the prisoners at

The Herald Washington special says Gen.
Grant has at last, most probably, per instruc-
tons from the President, taken up the Mexi.
can matter, in earnest, aud will attend to it
with zeal, so far as he can be concerned. On
Saturday morning he invited Senior Romero,
the Mexican Minister, to confidential inter>
view at his headquarters. which meeting took
place aud lasted for some time. After Senior
Romero's departure there was Staff meet
ing. What connection this may or may not
have had with the Mexican busines. cannot
say. One thing more, there is no reason to
believe that the Mexican question has been
reopened with France, but that it remains
just where the last published note from
Drnyn de l. Huys to Mr. Seward placed it.
The Government is waiting to see how the
French act up to the first of the CO ling year
II at that time it is seen that there is any
faith exhibited. or tendency to duplicity,
then such action will be forcibly recommend
