INJURIous.-Mr. Felton's prospects for
the United States Senate have been ma
terially impaired in the mountain counties
by permitting VIGOROUSLY disreputable
sheet in San Francisco TO advocate his
claims. II his friends could hire-not a
difficult mAtter-the infamous institution
referred to to abuse him, 1t would elevate
him. in the estimation Of every honorable
man in California. We merely make the
suggestiOn-it is for them to take advan.

withdraw from the contest, to save him

WHAT DID 1T MEANf-It is stated that
in the grand review Of the Army Of the
Potomac at Washington City. there were
no negro troops in the procession. Why
we're they not: Did the white troops
object to march in procession with him
Won't some Of.the superlatively loyal or
gans of California pitch into President
johnson and General Grant for not allow
ing the negro troops to participate in the
procession! Was the presence Of negro
troops in the procession 'distasteful" to
those high officials and the white soldiers
Of the Army of the Potomac?

president JOHNSON, it is said, has de.
cIared himself opposed to the trial of civ
ilians by military commissions, because it
is in direct violation Of the Constitution
which guarantees to every citizen charg
ed with the commission Of a crime, tria,
by due process Of law. His oath of Office
certainly requires Of him that be should
not only be opposed to bot that he should
prevent the holding Of such commissions
for such unlawful purposes. How can
he claim to maintain, protect and defend
the Constitution when he permits, within
sight Of the capitol, an unlawful Assem-.
blsge Of men to try for their lives the so.
called conspirators? The commission are
the conspirators, and BY permitting them
to proceed with their fagitious work, the
President defiles his official robes and
treats HE oath of Office with contempt
By permitting one Of these unlawful tri-
bunals to act he sins beyond redemption,
and furnishes his official honor beyond
repair. 1t is bis sworn duty to crush
this military commission conspiracy, and
il he fail to do it history will not hold him

JUSTICE IN CHAINS. There can be no
more significant commentary on the con
ditiOn Of our judicial administration than
the treatment Of the prisoners before the
military cOurtOr commission in Washing
ton. In . civil court we believe, it is pre-
sumed the accused may be innocent. and
he is treated with consideration consis.
tent with safe-keeping. How different
the present case. 10 q prison, with the
doors and windows secured by bolts end
bars, sits the "court." In and around
the building are numerous military
guards soldiers at every turn, under the
command Of = general officer. The pris-
Oners sit with guard on either side, YET
each is manacled hand and foot, and even
the woman, Mrs. Surratt, We are told
with great glee, as If it were something
to be proud of, drARs her chains as she
passes in and out of the court room. Are
there not soldiers enough in Washington
to secure the detention Of q woman. with
out chains Or is there some heartless
official who delights in that sort Of thingl
What splendid exhibition Of manlines:
we present to the world in bringing q
female in court, heavily ironed, and thai
court guarded by soldiers to prevent the
escape Of the woman! Well may the
Albany Argus ask, with scornful empha,
sis. il that is specimen Of the chivalry
Of the North ?"
