Released upon a Writ of Habeas Corpus. – Jordan Miller, charged with buying a horse, the property of Edwin J. Duval, which he knew to have been stolen, was examined before the Hustings Court on Wednesday, and sent on for trial before Judge Lyons. The prisoner was refused bail, whereupon his counsel sued out a writ of habeas corpus, which was heard before Judge Lyons yesterday, when that functionary reversed the decision of the Court and admitted Miller to bail in the sum of $5000.
