THE CRowNING OUTRAGE OF THE
HouR.-A military commission with
bristling whiskers, glittering cpau-
letcs andclattcring sabres, was organ
lied on ycrtcrday, to try for his life
a citizen of Virginia, in no way con-
nectcd with the army or navy Of the
United States. Neither was re priso-
ner of war, nor did he take any active
part in that noble struggle for nation
al independence which shallow knaves
have nicknamed s'rebelIion." The
alleged offence for which this gentle
man is to be tried in time of profound
peace, bya commission of alien SOL
diers, was not committed within tn c
limits of camp or garrisoncd fort,
and the charges against him have been
passed upon civil court of competent
and appropriate Jurisdiction.
The soldiers who propose to perform
the murderous farce of ''trying" this
civilian, will do SO in the teeth of a
decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States just made public, which
expressly ly and emphstically denies the
sight of such tribunal to try any
offence committed by civilian of
which the courts can take rightfuT cog
nizance. And yet, in spite of that de-
cision, by virtue of n lawless ukase' of
Congress and of military order from
the War Office, the rulings of the SUI
preme Court are to be subjected by
the iron-heeled boots of the soldier
to very much the same treatment
which the>Bible is said TO get from the
of the idolatrous japanese. .--Rtchmond
