new Patterson moved that the indict-
ment against the state Prison convicts
FOR the murder of Matt. IiXley be set
aside and the matter referred TO another
Grand Jury. Judge Harris allowed
the motion, and defendants formally
excepted. The Isaacs Indictment
case is somewhat mixed. and bears
about the same relation to a clear case
that the Mississippi. riverat the break
ing up Of a hard Winter does to the
facies Of Gr~eenIana's icy mountains.
Ourbumo Of comhaiivenes> is not SUI
~ticientiv. and on. hump OF caution is
too, We'll developed to permit u>to ask
the opinion of Il lawyer on the subject
for he would he sure to take it for
granted that We were ''pokiur fun at
him. The I>aacs Indictment was def
ciant i'm that the variance between the
allegations of the Indictment and the
. proofs We're decided to be fatal. Still.
Soneo Of The prisoners We're tried under
it and acquitted; No ICoSgrove and
TAYLOR were ScO0pci ont of the lot
and referred to another Grand Jury:
five iB.-eIow. Clifford, Flynn, NicCue
and Roberts appear to ave been tried
without the Introduction % testimony.
As all or seemingly all. testimony in
REGARD 10 them was excluded from the
iurv-and they We're acquitted TO-
gether with the ether eleven against
whom testimony MAS admitted, name
": Russell. CCckerell, ~guireS, Ryan,
Roth, Parsons, Chapman. Burke,
Pruitt. Willis and Carter. Then there
are eleven others indeed for the muir
der of I>avrS who were not present to
De tried. viz: Jones. IIeffron, Forrest.
Ingram, Watson, Mcnamara, iiU"ley.
Blair, Lynch, Baker and Jacks. There
seems to be a question As TO whether
the five men tried without evidence
have been placed in jeopardy, and
therefore whether arOther Grand Jury
can take cognizsu.ce of their cases;
also a. to whether another GrandJ Jury
can ignore the existence of the deieC-
tive Indictment and remdict the all
seutees for the murder of IsaacS. This
is the best we can do in the way of ex-
PLANTATION. and if any n is anxious
to learn tOr particularly the status
of the case, We would refer them to
PinchOWer OF Virginia.
