In the District Court of Charleston,
South Carolina, Judge Berrian has sup
ported the ruling Of Judge Bryan. In
the case of Castillo, confined in Jail
under military power, Judge Berran
granted writ of habeas corpus, but,
Lieutenant Manning refusing to deliver
the prisoner, the Judge has issued rule
to answer for a resistance. to law. Judge
Berrian insists that all martial law is
now unwarranted, and that no arrests
can now be made without due legal pre-
cess AS these judges belong to the
United States courts, we hope that their
opinions will have, the effect of driving;
the military tyranny from the South.

The evidence that produced this change
In the Doctors mind is found in the

at length many cases OF the disease
says it is impossible to avoid the con-

travellers and their baggage. The dis

the sense OF incubation, by the introduce

alimentary canal. "Avoid this, says
DR. Read, "apd infection and the spread

but in no sense infectious or contagious.
But all agree with remarkable unanim-
