The Trial OF the st. Adams Raid.
prS

The case of the st. Adams raiders
was taken up again in the Montreal
courts, Friday. The prisoners coun-
sci asked for further delay for the
reason that to prove their connection
with the confederates they had inef-
fectually tried to send four messengers
to Richmond, viz: Davis, who had
been arrested in Ohio, and sentenced
to be hanged as a spy; another, who
left on the 10th, and was in Washing
ton on the Odd; another who was
captured at Wilmington, but escaped
and returned 10 Canada and fourth
who went to Washington as advo-
cate, and endeavored, without success,
to obtain pass to Richmond, Mr..
Seward writing to him that the gov
eminent could hold no communication
or correspondence with him, and he
expected to leave the country without
having any communication with the
Richmond authorities. The court re-
fused further delay, and the refusal is
generally looked upon as deciding the
case against the prisoners. The trial
will be continued.
The statement that the ST. Adams
raiders are all to be sent to New York
for trial is without authority and en-
tirely untrue. They are reclaimed up
on complaints preferred against them
in the courts of the state of Vermont
and if surrendered they will be sur
rendered to the authorities of that
state for trial under the laws thereof
Marshal Murray has proceeded tc
Vermont upon entirely different bust
ness than that of cscorting the raiders
to New York.
On Monday several witnesses were
examined for the defense, who testi
fed that the prisoners we're in Tho
Confederate service. The Commss
ion was sworn to as genuine. One
witness testified that the minority O
the prisoners had been at Chicago
where 80 or 60 Confederate soldier:
had collected to release the prisoners
at Camp Douglas. The expedition
failing, two others were organized. on,
of which was the st. Albans raid
This witness said they were instructed
to report to c. G. Clay, the Confedor
ate Commissioner in Canada.
The Vermont transcript. [volume] (St. Albans, Vt.) 1864-1870, 1865-02-17

ton of the national authority every
whore was an indispensable condition
of any assent on our part to whatever
form of peace might be proposed. The
President assured the other party
that while he must adhere to these 20
sitions, he would he prepared, so far
MS power is lodged with the Executive,
30 exercise liberality. His power.
however, is limited by the Constitu-
ton, and when peace should be made,
Congress must necessarily act in re-
gard to the appropriation of money
and to the admission of representa-
tiyes from the insurrectionary States.
The Richmond party were then in
formed that Congress had, on the 31st
ult., adopted by constitutional ma
lOrity Joint resolution submitting to
the several States the proposition to
abolish slavery throughout the Union.
and that there is every reason to ex-
pect that it will be accepted by three
fourths Of the States, so us to become
a part of the national organic law.
The conference came to an end by
mutual acquiescencc, without produc-
ing an agreement of views upon the
several matters discussed or any of
them. Nevertheless, it is perhaps of
some Importance that we have been
able to submit our opinions and views
directly to prominent insurgents, and
to hear them in answer, in courteous
and not unfriondly manner
l am, Sir, your obedient servant
WIN. H. SEWARD.
