JEFF DAVIS,

The IIerald's Washington special says II
is not TO be inferred from the fact that JEFF
Davis has been indicted in this District that he
will certainly be put on trial here. The i'm
preston that he was indicted in this District
at the instance of the Government is without
foundation, The indictment was returned by
the Grand Jury at the instance OF the District
Attorney. Allen, who acted without consulta
ton with any member OF the Administration.
He is equally liable 10 indictment in Maryland
aud in the eastern district Of Pennsylvania,
aud il indicted in either Of said Districts will
be tried in that one to which the Government
may see ft 10 turn him over. ..
