SUPERIOR CRIMINAL COURT.

Yesterday morning in the Mortimer Carr case
the counsel for him filed, before Judge Whitaker
renewed motion for the release OF Carr on his
own recognlz tuce to await his rial on the second
indictment, which motion was first made Friday
evening by o. &. Rice, Esq, also OF counsel for
Carr.
In urging the motion Mr.. Luzsnburg referred
to the fact that Carr had been in prison several
months and the subject Of the second charge
had virtually been before the jury that had ac-
quilted him: and. further, after two terms had
passed the rule was that prisoner should be go
released. M
The Judge stated that the accused would be
entitled to trial on the second indictment during
this month, and tina If his Case WAS not fixed by
that time he would hear the renewal OF the motion.
BY agreement OF counsel it was fixed that the
case should be set down for some day next week.
In the case Of the State w. Jos. Oteri, on the
trial OF the demurrer to the plea in abatement to
the Indictment filed by the defense on the ground
that the Prosecutor was member Of the Grand
Jury, Judge Whitaker sustained the demurrer
and the defendant was arraigned and pleaded not
guilty and was released on $4,000 bonds.
STATE vs.. s. ST. GENE.
This case which, i. will be remembered. caused
considerable attention in legal circles, was up
yester day for trial for the tuird time.
St. Gene, at about 8 o'clock Christmas Eve,
1876, whilst engaged in playing cards with one
Francis Hoffman, on Elysian Fields, between
Rampart and Craps st'eets, without warning
shot Hoffman in the breast and then stabbed
him. The case was remarkable for it's desperate
cruelty, and on the ffst trial the accused was
convicted without capital punishment. On ap-
peal to tbs Supreme Court new trial Was
granted, aud on Mond y, November s. he had his
second trial. the jury being unable to agree.
Yesterday the case was called up and the &C.
lection Of jury commenced. After exhausting
the regular panel twenty-five and afterward
fifty taleemen were ordered. Ten jurors were
selected by eight O'clock but it was late hour
when the ether two were forthcoming. The
Judge allowed the jurors to go home after
charging them not TO converse with anyone about
the Gaze.
Judge Whitaker ordered yesterday for the De-
cember term that the Jury Oon mssioners draw
a panel Of 500 jurors to serve in his court.
The docket OF this tribunal is now entirely
cleared Of capital cases. and in a murder commit.
ted to-day the accused could be tried and sem
fenced within two well ks.

i We Have Plenty of Tonnage for the Whole
Crops Of the West.
The question OF grain facilities and the
Increase Of our commercial intercourse with the
Weet, has long been subject of earnest concern
amongst members of our business community.
Whether or not the port Of New Orleans had the
means OF furnishing to the trade of the West, in
the way OF grain transportation, an opportunity
for opening q speedy and cheap transit to the
sea OF its products, has interested every COM
mercial man in the valley. A reporter of the
DEMOCRAT yesterday interviewed several of our
most respected merchants on the subject, and
the result was in consonance with our previ-
onsly expressed opinions. The first gentleman
called upon was
