As we go to press Dr. B. has not returned. Fletcher Emmett objected to being tried before U.S. Commissioner McTeer yesterday on the plea that he was a prisoner of the State and not of the U.S. Ad Wilson is a prisoner of the U.S. and not of the State. The inmates of Rule’s Hotel are working out their bills macadamizing College Street. Yesterday George Lane, one of the guests, took French leave, leaving unsettled bills and John Scott discomfited. Sheriff Rule and his aid-de-camps followed in hot pursuit but failed to overtake him in his run for liberty. W.C. Jackson having failed to make his appearance at the last term of the Circuit Court for the charge of bringing stolen property into the State, his bondsman, Mr. Alexander Farmer, went after him and has brought him back to our county jail. He will there languish, we suppose, until our genial friend, Sheriff John C. McCarter, of Franklin County, Ga., comes to have another interview with him. The way of the transgressor is hard.
