The house is a long, low wooden shanty, on the corner, of 2d and Duval streets.

Upon hearing the testimony of Dr. Albert Snead, who attended the deceased, the accused was discharged. Dr. Snead stated that the condition of the negro for the past four months was that of a man in the last stages of consumption, and that when he heard of his death it excited no surprise on his part. The bruises which had been alluded to as visible about his head and face were such as he supposed might be produced by falling about, and the boy's state of health was of that character which rendered it highly probable that he would totter and fall whenever he was moving about. Robert, slave of George Bagby, charged with stealing a small lot of beef from W. K. Sledd's stall, in the Second Market, yesterday morning, was ordered to be whipped. Fanny Lewis, a free negress, charged with harboring Peter, slave of Neil McCurdy, was also ordered to be punished with stripes.
