The Court consented to regular bu
siness to hear the application of if. S. Morri
son. Esq., for the discharge from arrest of
Frederick Lyman, on a charge of larceny.—
Lyman was tried with another -party, last

of George Reseal, on Fourth street, of a lot ,
of clothing, /eft for tile .purpose of being
Menem!. Tho evidence of guilt not being eon
elusive, thejury aeqnlited, but oral _ the same
day Lyman was re-armted; Under the follow

arrest, certain piece:sof clothing were found
in Lyman's poraeslikui, which, with the ewer.-
Oen of an overcoat, were Went:Med by
Massey, se having been taken from his
place, of business. Lyman . claimed the
coat as his property. Massey etated
that he bad lost, an. overcoat. but could
not say It was the one in question. -Upon tee
trial this feet appeared, and consequently no
evidence was offered concerning the coat, far.
dzer than that it was found in the possession
of Lyman and the feet that on claimed it.
soon after his discharge, the owner or the
coat, Edward finish, turned up, rind Lyman
was again taken late custody. discnarge

previously arrested and tried for the lemony
of the coat, Tao Court reinsed the appliea
ton, and stated that the question could only
be raised on another trillb and then by plea
of former acquittal: in that case the record
would be against the prlssner, - as In the indict
ment the coat was charged ea the property of
George Massey, and now the htfollnation MS
on which he is held in custody charged
him with the larceny of property of Ed

whereas, m truth and in fact, as charged, Mrs.
Shaw broke the windows and threatened as
slated in defendant's presence, and that de
fendant sald - that if Mr. Shaw-bed given his
wife money, de., the throat cutting would not
