Cheif Justice Chase Explains
why the Louisiana Delegates
were Rejected.

In April last Mr.. Chase wrote two
letters to President Lincoln in favor
Of negro suffrage as a condition Of
restoring the seeding States to
the Union. In the second letterdated
the 18th April he said:
/ know you attach much impor.
tance to the admission Of Louisiana,
or rather to her right Of representa-.
ton in Congress as a loyal State III
the Union. ,IfIam not misinformed
there isnothing in the way except
the indisposition Of 4her Legislature
togive proof satisfactory Of loyalty
by sufficient guarantee Of safety
and justice to colored citizens through
suffrage. Why not, then, as almost
every loyal man concurs with You as
to the desirableness OF that recogni-
ton, take the shortest road to it'bJ
causing every proper representation
to be made to the Louisiana legisla,
ture Of the Importance ofsuch exten.

MIR. Bingham's Argument in Re
& ply to Reverdy johnson. =

a ply to Reverdy johnson. 81
Judge Bingham read, yesterday,
before the Military Commission a long
argument Gas by courtesy we sup.
pose we must call If in reply to Rev.
erdy Johnson on the Jurisdiction Of
the commission. It forms a printed
pamphlet Of thirty-four pages large
octave, and would gil two pages 81
our paper, closely printed in small
type. On receiving a copy through
the agent of,the Associated Press, il
was our intention, despite its I'm.
wieldy bulk, to publish it; but after
reading it carefully, from end to. end,
we concluded il would be a sad waste
OF space. Our readers will certainly
be of the same opinion when they
have read the specimens which we
will insert.
Mr. Bingham is reputed an able
man aud dextrous lawyer; and it is a
signal proof Of the weakness Of any
cause, whena lawyer Of his conceded
ability can find nothing more solid to
say in its defense, than the empty
and sophistical clap-trap with which
he attempts to becloud the mind Of
the country. & Becloud The mind Of
the country, we say, for it was evil
IDENTIFY prepared less for the court
than for the public. ii
AS Mr. Bingham's purpose is to be-
wilder and confuse the reader by dis.
tracing him with great mass Of
irrelevant matter, we will preface our
account Of his effort with a brief
statement of the merits OF the case,
as a criterion by which to Judge Of
his logic. The whole case may be
compressed s;ilto anut shell. Pray,
read with attention this section of the
actsof March 5, 1868:
