Etheridge trial at Columbus, Ky, on
the second day, the Court met at 9
o'clock A. NJ. Mr.. Etheridgc read his
plea in denial Of the jurisdiction of the
Commission. This document set
forth the following points, to wit
|. That he was citizen OF Tenn,
and had never been in the military
or naval service either Of the United
States or Confederate States of Amer
lea.
2. That at the time of the alleged
offenses the United States was at
peace with all the world.
3. That the rebellion which had
been in resistance, was then suppress
ed and ended, and had been officially
proclaimed to be ended by the Prcsi-
dent Of the United States, and by
Major General Thomas, commanding
this department, in u general order.
4. That the offcnses alleged were
committed, if committed at all, after
the dates Of those proclamaLions and
orders.
5. That, since the first day of July,
the accused has not been anSwerable
to any military authority: but if he
has been guilty Of amy ottenses, he has
been liable to trial by the civil courts
and an impartial jury, but only on in
dictment of the Grand Jury.
6. The said supposed otfenses, alleg
ed in the charge, are trlablc alone by
jury and cognizable only in the State
Of Tennessee.
7. chat never having been in the
military or naval service of the United
States, he can be legally tried only
according to the laws Of Tennessee.
s. That for two years and more II
Federal Court has been holding re
cular sessions in Tennessee, and that
the places where his offenses are alleg-
ed to have been committed are in one
Of the judicial districts of said Court
9 That AT the time Of his alleged
ofcnses all the judicial tribunals OF
the State of Tennessee were in unop-
posed operation, and he is amenable
only to them aud not TO this commits
sion, and therefore prays that he may
be discharged.
To this plea of Mr.. Etheridge the
Judge Advocate entered II replication,
setting fourth that Major General
Thomas. commanding was the best
Judge of the extent Of it's authority
and Jurisdiction, and had the right to
establish the commission and assign
to it its duties and naSmuch rs Gen
era Thomas had established the com
mission and ordered it to try Ethe
ridge, the citizens plea of the accused
onuht not to be allowed Mr. Ethc-
ridge asked leave to enter demurrer
to this replication, which was refused
by the Court.
The Court was cleared for delibera-
ton, ard upon reopening it was an,
nounced that the plea Of the accused
was ovcrruIed. Mr. Ethcrdgo then
filed an exception to the ruling of the
Court in the matter Of his request to
be allowed to put in demurrer The

Concord of purpose, and harmony of action,
can never proceed from such q chaos of d.
verse sentiments. Chickering's and conten.
tons have already arisen In the ranks, by
men obnoxious to the truly loyal aspiring to

undissembled loyalty or branded with the
dark stigma Of covert rebellion. The udvo-

the advocates of their punishment, to the ut.

devotion to their countrys cause when ty.

and sustained its banner Of glory triumphant.

the conflict. They fully realize that never
before in the history Of our Republic, do
those entrusted with its rule and guidance
stand in greater need Of popular support than
ut present. In the impending struggle, they
will achieve the same decisive discontinue
over the secret accomplices Of the Southern
revolt, that attend their arms upon the en-
sanguined fields Of warfare, against its open
and more manly defenders. The result is not
doubtful. The "inevitable logic" of past
events and experience, precluded the bare
possibility of failure. No lengthy mataphys
