NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 10. 1859.
This morning, In the United States Court before
Judge Durell, an attempt was made TO bond s1so0O0
worth of the million or 80 OF sugar seized by tho
government officials in New Orleans for alleged
infractions Of the revenue laws.
United states District Attorney p. II. Morgan
(who, at the request OF the Attorney General has
withdrawn his resignatonj strenuously opposed the
motioD stating that the government wished to have
the thing itself in court, SO tnat, whether the gov
ernment gained lost the case, the litigation might
be brought to q climax at once
Mr.. f. C. Billings on behalf OF the claimants, said
whatever might be the wishes of the government. IL
was not probable that the case would be brought to
final disposition inside OF ve years. for the parties
were determiued to exhaust every legal remedy.
Judge Durell remarked that after four months
delay the motion to bond made at the instant that
the government was prepared to go to trial GER
tainly came at most suspicious time.
Mr.. Billings explained that the delay had been
caused by tue difficulty III getting he sugars released
from the attachments OF creditors.
Judge Durel said he would hear what the suretles
had TO say and decide upon the case afterwards.
TWO leading sugar factors were offered as suretieS,
ono swearing TO $4,000 OF unencambered property
and the other 10 $500 000 The Court agreed To ac-
cept one OF them for $4,000 and the other for
$4,000.
AT this rate OF progression the bonds not likely
to be lound till after the case has been decided.
Meanwhile the District Attorney purposes bringing
the SUITS for trial within week.
The criminal indictments against Perry Fuller are
In preparation and VIII be laid before tne GrAno
Jury as soon as 1t is empanelied.
