Interesting case.

--A very important case, as affecting the status of Marylanders in service, will soon come on for trial in Judge Halyburton's Court. Thirty-three members of the First Maryland artillery, who enlisted at the beginning of the war for three years, and whose terms of service have expired, having been refused their discharge by the military authorities, have sued out writs of habeas corpus for the purpose of testing the legality of their retention in the army. The petitioners have secured the services of Mr. John H. Gilmer as counsel, and the decision of the question is looked for with considerable interest by the Marylanders sojourning here and elsewhere in the Confederacy.
