S District Court in Philadelphia, accompanied by Messrs. ^Teredith, Gillpin, and Iloppnr his counsel, and offered a petition, in which he expressed his w illingnos to purge himself of thocontempt in the Wheeler slave ense for which lie was imprisoned in July ? ' ' ..A last Judge Kane reccivtu uie pennon, fjumcu the prayer, and required \N illainson to aflinn to what h?? had to say in reply to theinterrogu; tories of the Court. Certain interrogatories were then propounded to him by Mr. \ andyke the District Attorney, to which lie teplied; M did uotseck to obey the writ by producing the persons therein mentioned before thuCouit because I had not at the time of the service of the writ, the power over the custody or control of them, and therefore, it was impossible for mc to do so. I,first heard of the writ of habeas ..orpus on Friday, July 20, between 1 and 2 o'clock, A. M., qji my return from Harrisburg. After breakfast, about 9 o'clock I went from my house to Mr. Hopper's office, w hen and where thd return was prepared. "At 10 o'clock as I came intoccnrt commanded by the writ, I sought to obey the, writ byanswering it truly the patties not Imping in my possession or control, it was impossible for me to obey the writ by producing them; Since the service of the writ I have not had the custody possession or power over them nor have 1 known there they were except from common rumo - or the newspaper reports in regard to their public appearance in the city or else whore." Some discussion arose bc-lween the District Attorney and the counsel of .Mr. Williamson Mr. Vainly ke contended that the reply of the defendant was evasive and contradictory. The Judge said the difficulty, he thought, could be easily overcome by amending the answer, and at the suggestion of the court it was amended in the following manner: "I did not seek to obey the writ l>y producing the person? in the wiit mentioned before this court. I did not seek because I vcrliy believed that it was entiicly impossible for me to produce the said persons agreeably to the command of the court." This auswet was then accepted b\# the court ami ordered filed. Judge Kane then remarked that the District Attorney has been invited to aid the court iu this case, but that he would bear in mind that \fr \\ lunlnf w:i< >inw stisncil illo iciaiiuii iv/ im. ?? uwvivi j ded. 'I liis was only an inquiry as lo what in jury had been done the process in the court. Mr. V andyke said lie was aware of the posi tion he occupied. Judge Kane then said.?'"The contempt is now regarded as purged and the party is released from custody, lie is now reinstated to the position he occupied before the contempt was committed. Mr. Williamson is now before ine on the return to the writ." Mr. Vandyke then arose and addrcs-ed the court, stating that a nollej>rosc\had been entered in the case in the court, but that he had on behalf of Mr. Wheeler, entered a suit for damages in the U. S. Circuit Court. Judge Kane thereupon discharged Williamson from custody He was immediately surrounded and heartily congratulated by his friends. He is said to look exceedingly well.
