Chief Justice Chase, it is said, under
stands the Presidents proclamations ns
they are understood by the President him
self--that is, as abrogating martial law
and restoring civil authority in the South.
But, on account of tie misinterprctutions
of the proclamations, by various military
commandants, the Chief Justice insists on
another proclamation declaring explicitly
that martial law is at an end, before he
will preside at the trial of Mr.. Davis in
Virginia. 1t would seem, therefore, that
the arbitrary conduct of military officers
in the South is regarded by the Chief Jus
tice Of the Supreme Court-himself Rad
ical of the Radicals--as Illegal and i'm
proper. AS n partisan we have no doubt
that Mr. Chase would not object to the ex.
IRENE course of military officers in the
South As Judge, however, he cannot
approve it. We are glad that he is even
willing to make this distinction, but do
not see why he should support party
which makes it impossible, according to
his own admission, to carry on the govern
ment-GdL Neus

Editor Dallas Herald;
DEAR Sri thought that being q citi.
zen of Ellis county, would drop you line,
thinking that might relate something that
would interest some Of the readers Of the
Herald, and also for tho interest | feel In
the welfare of the citizens Of Texas.
The Kiowa Indians have just returned
from the frontiers of Texas, aud have bro
with them four white women and several
children, and are now camped within forty
miles Of this place, on the Big Arkansas
River, 20 or 80 miles from Fort Larnari
an IL Santa Fe Road. The names of tic
women or number Of children have not
as yet learned.
The Indians do not recognize Texas as
belonging to the United States; they think
that it is an entirely different country.
They made treaty here with the whites
last spring. The Agent, Col. j. II. Leayen-
worth, think, will nse all his efforts to get
the prisoners.
In haste, very respectfully yours,
j. MACK. BURKIlEAD.
p. S.-Any Of the friends of the unfor-
tunate ladies and children, who may wish
to enquire after them, can address the
Agent, Col. j. II. Leayenworth, Fort Lar
nard, Kansas.
