Confederate States district Court.

Judge Halyburton's Court assembled again yesterday.

The Habeas corpus petitions for discharge from service sued out by Frank M. Ganby, William G. Higgins, Charles McNeil and Edward Middleton, were continued till Monday next.

Amos M. Herring was discharged from service, under a writ of habeas corpus, upon the ground of his being a constable in Samson county, North Carolina. In furtherance of Herring's claim, a certificate was produced from Governor Vance, of North Carolina, setting forth that his services were necessary to the proper administration of justice in said State.

The court then adjourned till 11 o'clock this morning.
