The examination of the prisoner, on the application of the Prussian Consul General for his rendition to the Prussian authorities, underfthe extradition treaty exist- ing between the United States and Prussia, occupied a considerable time before Commissioner White, and re- sulted in the Commissioner issuing his certificate as to the sufficiency of the evidence to warrant the extradi- ion of the accused to Prussia on the charges preferred. ‘The case is brought {nto the Circuit Court on a motion fora writ of habeas corpus, and yesterday argument was heard on the part of the Prussian government to of country.
