BALTIMORE, Oct. 16.-In the United States
Circuit Court yesterday, hearing was had
before Chief Justice Chase, upon the petition of
Elizabeth Turner, colored, by her next friend
Charles Henry Minsky, addressed to the Hon.
Salmon p. Chase, Chief Justice OF the Circuit
Court of the United States in and for the Mary.
land District. The petition alleges that she is
the child of Elizabeth Mlnsky, formerly Eliza
beth Turner; that she is restrained of her liberty
and held in custody by Philemon I. Ham
bleton, Talbot county, Maryland, in vio-
lation of the Constitution and laws of the
United States. Also, that the petitioner
is restrained Of her liberty by virtue of certain
alleged lndentures of apprenticeship made not
in accordance with the laws of the State of
Maryland as applicable to the binding Of
white children. The petitioner prays the Court
for writ of habeas corpus addressed to said
Hambleton, requiring him to produce in Court
the person of petitioner, and to certify the true
cause of her detention, and to show cause, if
any he has, why petitioner should not be dis
charged.
Signed by h. StOckbridge and Nathan M.
Purdy, attorneys for petitioners.
The petition was fled September 20, aud
endorsed. Writ granted as prayed, returnable
October 15, 1867.
Signed s. P. Chase, Chief Justice of the
United States. The lmaster, p T. Hambleton,
made the folio wing reply:-
''In obedience to the command of the within
writ, hereby produce the body of Elizabeth
Turner, tog ether with a copy of the indenture
of apprenticeship, showing the cause of her
capture and detention, and respectfully await
the action of your Honor"
The petitioner appeared by counsel, and the
Chief Justice inquired of the respondent if he
had counsel in court? de replied in the mega
tive, and said he would let the matter be settled
by the Court.
The Chief Justice stated that he would prefer
that the ease should be fully argued. The re-
spondent stated that the child and its mother
were formerly his slaves, and were set free by
the Constitution, which went into operation on
November l, 1864. The child was apprenticed
November 3, 1864, two days after she was eman.
cipated, and the law OF Congress, called the
Civil Rights Bill, was passed since the child
was indentured, Aprl9, 1866.

Greeley ON Th~rlow weed.

An eminent and veteran liar addresses him
self day after day to the task of telling lie big
enough, if possible, to induce the Tribune to
notice him. Here is one out Of nearly dozen
of his latest etforts:-
"Agaip, when invited by that Medium,
JeWett," Mr.. Greeley requested Mr.. Lincoln to
send him TO CunddG supplicating fr Peace
from 'Conspirators,' with bribe OF S4OO,OOO,OOO
for slavery"
The fact that Mr.. Greeley requested nothing
of the kind, but demonstrated against being sent
when Mr.. Lncoln's messenger most unexpect-
edly appeared before him with direction that
he should start on that most Unwelcome errand,
is happily beyond question. He would gladly
have paid two other mems expenses rather than
his own, if sending those two would have
far from ''supplicating" any Rebel for peace, the
overture came to him from them, as all men do
know, save such as choose to ignore the most
conspicuous facts, and believe instead an utterly
groundless fabrication.-M Y. Tribune.

An appeal of more general nature is to be
made to the colored people throughout the
Union, and it is estimated that If each would
give but five cents handsome sum would be
realized, amounting probably to S2OO,OO0. The
following letter from Chicago gives statement
of Mrs. Lincoln's estate, and the amount she
has, or ought to have, in. ready money and real
estate:-
