COUNTY COURT.
Habeas Corpus Cause.-The Custody Of an
Army Recruit.

Habeas Corpus Cause.-The Custody Of an
Army Recruit.
Before Judge Troy.
Some further arguments were had yesterday be-
fore Judge Troy in the County Court in the Of
Charles Myers, private in the United States Army
was arrested for desertlon and discharged on q
writ Of habeas corpus by Judge Troy, on q plea Of
being under age After being released he was again
rearrested by order of the commandant at Fort
Northumberland Vogdes-and Is now In the GUS
tOdy OF the United States.
IL appears that the recruit enlisted July H. 1885, at
Bladensburg, Maryland, and there declared under
oath that he was eighteen years and eight months
Of age. He afterwards deserted. was arrested and
then released by Judge Troy, as above stated. At
that time 1t was the law OF the United States for
selves. On the recent writ Of habeas corpus the
recruit gave q different age.
Judge Troy said the only desire OF the court Is
to do Its duty. 1t seems that this difficulty arises
out Of the minds OF some officials that the State
courts are necessarily opposed to the United
States government. This folly might have done
very well In the South when in a state OF
rebellion but to apply now to the great state Of
New York. from which the President OF the republic
received more support than any other State in the
Union Is inconsistent. SO far as look at the mat
the laws of United States fully as the laws OF
the State; and administer them assist In admins
tering them far IA in his power viii permit him.
have no desire except to discharge my duty.
Mr.. Tracy, who appeared for the government,
asked for further postponement, which the Judge
granted. The case was set down for saturday, at
ten O'Clock in the morning.
