RB. Babesck —This was an application for the admission to bail of the petitioner, who had been indicted for having in bis posseasion $45,000 worth of the bonds stolen from Rufus L. Lord, and on which indictment he had been committed without bail. The case was reported in full in the Heraty on its argu: ment, and the Couft yesterday rendered the following con- obarge of being Rufus L, Lord. ‘On the 20th of November, 1866, an indictment was found against recelv: allowed. a commitment of the prisoner by order of the was granted. ‘This application is now er bailed. Several questions of Importance ‘as to the right of Prisoner to be discharged op bail have been ably ed before me, but the views which I entertain in to this application are such as to render the dectsion of these questions unnecessary 1m the present case, Ist. The indictment having been found agg’ the prisoner Pore = arrest, it — un- necessary to bave any examinat! fore @ Toagistrate, and it beeame the duty of the court on receiving the in- dictment to order & warrant to issue for the arrest of the party therein charged with felony. The order of the easions sending the case to Justice Dowling to be inves- Seniea. ‘was au unnecessary and irregular order, aud id not alter the Mabilities of the party, or relieve’ him from the farm gyre which followed the finding of the indictment against him. The supposition there. fore that it ts simply a proceeding to review Justice Dowling’s decieion not to admit the priaoner to bail upon the ground the prisoner, in offences of this char- acter, hasaright to be bailed. i# a mistake. The Jus- tice, when the case was sent back to him for further examination, dic t acquire any right to let the prisoner to bail, That power coased whenever a bill of indictment ‘was found, and that indictwent remained in full force against the prisoner notwithstanding the order of the ona. In fact, the order of that court send- img back the care to the police justice was an unusual proceeding, not provided for by the statute, and not re. quired by any rale or provision of ctiminal law within my know! Iam referred to the opinion of Judge Edmonds in the caso of Dewey on these questions. but there the case was in the Oyer and Terminer; the Deweys had been arrested and brought before a mayistrate, and had been deprived of the benefit of thn examination provided by the statute, by being indicte! before such examination was completed. But in that case the learned justice says:—‘‘It ia troe that a person may be indicted in the first instance without any pre. Yiminary and thus by the action of the Grand Jury be deprived of the preliminary examination.”? The opinion tn that case does not apply here, and do not feel at hherty to give any force to the orders of the General Scxsions sending the case to Justice Dowling for examina:ion, because the same was not warranted or required by the statate. The prisoner hav- ing been indicted in the Court of Sessions, that court had daring its sesion the right to lat the prisoner to bail. This ie provided by the Revised Statutes, 3d vol., 5th ed, page 1.020, soction 59, That section directs tuat in cages whore by law persons indicted may be let to bail for their appearance, they may be £0 let to bail by the court having jurisdiction to try the offence, or, if such courube not sitting, by any jostice of the Supreme Court, and if the offence may be tried fn a Court of Goneral by county jodge; and section 60 prohibits any other officer from l#iting to bail any person indicted aD It i® apparent from these provisions that when the cave was sent to Justice Dowling he head ‘no authority to let the prisoner to bail; and it ie equally clear that during the session of the court having jurtsdie- tion to try the offence, ench court alone bas nority. under the statute to let to bail, and that a justice of the Suppeene Court is only authorized to do 80 where the court has closed its sersion, It has also heen snggested on this application tha: as the Court of Sessions has com- initted the prisoner, the right to bail haa been adjudi- cated. This was the decision of the Genera) Term in the against Cunningham, 3 Parker, Cr. Rep. pp. 520. Such would undoubtedly be the proper rule if the deci- sion of the Court had been made before the allowance of the writ and such facts appeared in the return, It may well be doubted whether # proceeding on habeas corpus or eertioran can be defeated by such a commitment made after the allowance and iasue ofthe writ. It is not, how- ever, necessary for me to disenas thie branch of the case, aa for the reasons before stated I think the prisoner at this time can only be balled by the Court, and thot a magistrate out of court haa ne anthority until after ihe session of the court has terminated, and even then it might be considered res adjutica/a if the Court during its seanion shonid pass upon such an application, The Prisoner must be remanded to custody.

Lowis, On the 12th of Juiy, in thig year, the plaintifis made a contract with the de- fendants to tow their barge safely from the port of New York to Norwalk, Conn. The plaintiffs allege that when within five miles of Norwalk the master and employes of the steamtug, by negligent conduet, rap the Jessie among the rocks and damaged her considerably, For this damage plaintiffs olnim from defendants comprner- tion to the extent of $500. The answer ni the defend suts is to the effect that the acreement war to tug the ‘vesse! in the usual and customary manner—that ia, that it should be done at the risk of the owners and master of the Jessie, and that there was no other agreement in existence between the parties. The point at iaeue {x an interesting one to owners of veasela and seafaring men, and will probably be decided on Monday, when the further hearing of the case i to be entered on.

John Scott, who was indicied for breaking into the dwelling house of Peter A, H.

After the rendition of the verdict the other day, the Recorder asked Brady tf he had ever been arrested before, when he promptly replied that he had not, Hie Hovor said nothing at that time, but ordered him to be remanded. When Brady was arraigned yes. terday the Recorder examined two gentlemen from whom the priconer stole property on two distinct occa mone, and who testified that he was convicted under the pame of Noonan and Hines Jt further appeared that he attempted to escape from the Penitentiary, and that be muecceded in Inducing the Court, inet June, to believe that he was worthy of sympathy, aud jadgment wow aweponded on # plea of an attempt at grand larceny.
