for the prisoner that 'under • the statuto

that the worst feature was the.lrksome
noes of confinement. The restraint of
his freedom ho, said, was exceedingly ,
tedious Whim. On farther obuversation
he narrated the manner in which his re- -
cent surrender to the authorities wad
brought about, while he with his famil,y:
were corning to Pittsburgh, and .in
which he was treated by the Cincinnati
polled with so much kind consideration: , .
The The Captain expressed his surprise,
and paned a few comments upon'Judge
