that Captain Maltisuo had been takeu
from the Greenville jail, under a writ
of habeas corpus, aud uarried to New

Judge Montgomery Moses. The pri?
soner was brought before the court ou
Thursday evening, aud the case was
continued till.Friday eveuiug, iu order
to secure the evidence given before tho
Coroner's jury at Belton. He was
represented by Major Baxter, who
made au able effort in his behalf. The
prosecuting uttoruey, Mr. Caldwel),
acting Solicitor, prosecuted the case
with vim aud energy. The court was
patient and attentive iu hearing tbe
arguments. Iu his remarks, the Judge
was oiear in indicating the authority
of officers, their privileges and powers,
and gave it as bis opinion that
officers had no right to take the life
of a,man.in attempting to arrest
him, when the man was unartnud
aud showed no resistance. Major
Baxter made a motion to allow tho pri?
soner to give bail iu Bicbluud or New
berry, which tho Judge positively re?
fused. Iu allowing bail iu tho sum of
815,000, tho Clerk of the Court of Au
deraou was to approve the security,
?heriff Southern, on Saturday, deli?
vered tho prisoner to Sheriff McGnkio,
of Andersou, who placed him in j tail.
We are informed that Capt. Mattisot.
does not bear his troubles with great
fortitude. When the killing is alluded
to, ho seems to be overcome and is re?
lieved by u flood of tears. His wife
aud little ones were with him iu court.
