The N egro Bradley. UNITED states district court for the southern DISTRICT OK GEORGIA—HON. JUDGE EBSKiXE PRE SIDING EX-PARTE AARON A. BRADLEY (COL.) — HABEAS CORPUS—THE RETURN TO THE WRIT AND DISCHARGE OF THE PRISOXDR. In the United States Court yesterday morning the above case was taken up, it having been understood that a return upon the halms corpus sued out by Aaron A. Bradley, col., who was held by the military authorities, would be made by the custodian of the prisoner, Lieutenant Colonel Crofton, tnrough H. 8. Fitch, Esq., U. S. District Attorney. The prisoner Bradley was brought into court in charge of a United States soldier, and followed by a number of sympathizing friends of his color. Upon the case being called the return was read by Air. 11. S. Fitch, to which a demurrer was filed by A. W. Stone, Esq., counsel for the defendant, and the issue being joined by tlie return and the demurrer, the case was submit ted to His Honor without extended argument. The demurrer stated that there was nothing sufficient in law to authorize the detention- of Bradley, and his infprisonment by the military authorities of the United States, and moved that he he discharged. Air. Fitch read the return to the writ alleg ing that Bradley had been arrested upon the application of Capt. Brandt, Sub-Assistant Com missioner of the Freed men's Bureau and Aban doned Lands tor the Stale of South Carolina, was predicated on an order issued from Brevet Afcij. Gen. Scott, Asssistant Commissioner B. 11., F. £ A. L., directed to Brevet Lieutenant Colo nel Pi. E. A.

The Court decided that after having careful- y read the petition and the other papers in the ise, it ceuld see no cause for Bradley’s deten tion ; that there was nothing in the act cited to change its mind in that respect, that the Court was unobstructed in the fall plcutitudc of its powers by civil or military authority in the State ; if the the United States or of the State of South Carolina or Georgia had been tainted the civil courts were in full force to take cognizance, and its judgement in the mat ter wits that the prisoner be discharged. An order was subsequently granted to that effect. In the trial of the above case, Hon. Iverson j. Hands, one of tlie Judges of the Supreme curt of the State, being in Court was invited to a seat on the bench and heard the trial. It as peculiarly gratifying to see this harmony etween tlie State and Federal authorities, ev idencing the restoration of civil power in full lentitude, and the judgment of the bench as in conformity to the law as it exists for the protection of all classes, in which the laws of the State and United States were so thoroughly tgreed. While we have no doubt Judge Urs ine will give the fullest protection ot law to the colored man, under the civil rights bill, when necessary, it is just to State law and State officers, and the history of the last two years; to say that the same protection will he under the authorities of tlie State.—Sai 14 th.

The battle of Griswoldville was a severe and prolonged contest, and many, unfavorable re ports have gone forth in relation to it. On the 22d of November. lBCii. at daybreak, the mili tia and the State Line brigade were put in mo tion to goto MiBe^eville. When five miles from Macon a courier overtook the command and changed our course to Griswoldville. The day was freezing cold. 33 hen we got within. no mile of tlie village the State Line was dered to deploy as skirmishers, in the form of a crescent, and advance on the town, to test the strength of the enemy, ihe town was then in flames. The State Line drove the \au- kecs out, and the latter fell back two miles to an intrenched position. Brigadier General Phillips was in command. He—contreut rated his force one mile beyond the town, and form ed the battle line with the centre resting on the railroad. After making a reconnoisance we were or- dered'forward. Our course was through a for est of slim pines. 33*e reached an open field and about nine hundred yards distant, on a commanding eminence, the enemy was en trenched, and their hastily thrown up works were bristling with cannon. Me were halted on the edge of the field by the General com manding (the ground being favorable for re serve position.) Tbe dense woods which sur rounded the open field enabled tlie General to flank on both ends of the euemy's position, without exposing to their view his movements. The writer was in command of the first regi ment Georgia State Line, and was informed of the General’s purpose, which was this ; The State Line brigade and McCray's militia brig ade were to wait-for the battle to open on the flanks, and then the - two brigades were to charge across the field and engage them in front. The battle was well planned, but owing to misapprehension, 1 presume, of the General s orders, who sent word to advance the flanking columns, the writer was asked by the Aid-de- Camp, “what he was waiting for?’ The re ply was. “for the proper time to act. The whole command was ordered forward and no flanking column detached. Gen. Phillips dash ed down the line, and perceived, when too late rentedv the mistake, that his whole pi.tn had been defeated by the wanton assumption or the entire misapprehension of his orders by the Aid conveying them to bis troops. Ihe __ tate Line had been schooled in many battles, and the two regiments at the time were ••skele tons."’ They crossed the field in the teeth of inanv cannon, with an unbroken front. The lines' of the other commands were broken, but 1 am proud to record that, like our revolution- arv fathers, old grey-haired Georgians fought that day with the same feelings which made “Putnam leave his plow. • Gen.

A New and Grand Epoch in Medicine. Dr. Maggiel is the founder of a new Medical Svstem ! Th&quantitari&ns. whose vast inter nal doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give precedence to the man who restores health and appetite, with from one to tw;o of his extraordinary Pills, and cures the most virulent sores with a box or so of his wonderful and all healing Salve. These two ureal specifics of the Doctor are fas? superce ding all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extraordinary cures by Maggiel’s Pills and Salve have opened the eyes of the public to the inefficiency of the (so called) remedies of others, and upon which people have so long blindly depended. Maggicl’s Pills are not ot the class that are swallowed by the dozen, and of which every box full taken creates an abso lute necessity for another. One or mo of MaggieBs Pill's suffices to place the bowels in perf = ct order, tone the stomach, create an ap petite, and render the spirits light * and buoy ant! There is no griping, and no reaction in the form of constipation. It the liver is affec ted, its functions are restored ; and if the ner vous system is feeble, it is invigorated. This last qualify makes the medicines very desira ble for the' wants of delicate females. Ulcer ous and eruptive diseases are literally extin guished by the diser.fectaut power of Maggiel’s Salve. Iii fact, it Is here announced that Mij- yid's Bilious Dyspeptic and Diarrhaa Bills cure where all others’ fail.
