how DAVIS sHOCLD BE TRIED.
The celebrated American writer on cTiml-
nal law, Mr.. Bishop. in his late edition Of his
Criminal Law, discusses in note the law
bearing upon the trial Of rebels. &c denies
that the law Of nations forbids the execution
Of leading rebel atter rebellion has ripened
into war. he holds that both e1peoiency and
the law require sueh rebel to be sent for
trial to military tribunal. The Boston id
tezttseT thns sums up his argument:
The lag od naHont, ha areue4, has relieved
pdto0e98 Of from the liability Of suffering death
at the hands Of the captors, but this rnh does not
apply % IL fal ex1snt to Isbsls esp.uled BY thsls

BY an official statement We learn that out
of $50 persons tsdeiving Goverment rations
at Knoxville, 357 were white and two black.
The question does not now seem to be. what
shall be done with tho black man, but what
shall bo done with tho white man. All
things considered, the freedmen Of the South
exhibit more tact in providing for themselves
than tho poor whites. This may. in part be
accounted for from the fact that tho blacks
as sliaes, wero accustomed to industry and
do not disdain any work that brings them an
honest livelihood. while the poor whites have.
with few exceptions, spent their lives in q
shiftcss manner. and have neither tho skill

HENRY A. WISE, says the Richmond cor

Terry as to tho transfer of his property in
Nansemond county, abandoned in 1862, to
the Frecdmen's Bureau kftet defining tho
rights and duties of secession, and acknowl-
edging his being conquered, he says, There
is no need Of my taking tho oath of allegiance
to the United States. I am not, never was,
and never mean to bo foreigner to them
Under their ngis claim to be an American
citizen, and free, save those bonds of pris-
cner Of war. can take no oaths I am not
free to swear" He denies tho right to con-
hscatc, as by the parole which he received
from Gen. Grant he was directed to 60 to his
home, which he nov claims he is excluded
from, it being occupied by Government pau
pers. He states: a. had definitely made up
my mind to advocate emancipation. l had
also determined that my children should never
be subjected to this humiliation. Tho whole
paper is made up of fluent bombast. for which
