Trial Of Jefferson Davis.

trial of Mr.. Davis cannot take place
| in October on account, as is alleged,
Of some irregularity in the adjourn
ment of the Circuit Court at Norfolk
The real cause of this failure and
consequent postponementeof the trial
is due however, more to The persist
ent determination Of Judge Under
wood and his Radical friends to per-
petuate the imprisonment'o Mr.. Da-
Wis, in the hope perhaps, that Death
may step in and relieve them of a
judicial task which they seem afraid
or unwilling to undertake. Death
may interpose to bring friendly relief
to Mr.. Davis in his present condition
Of mental and physical torture, but
his prosecutors will not fail to meet
their reward at the hands of an
aveuging Nemesis, some time or
other.
Doubts have been expressed in
sundry journals, says the National
Intelligencer, whether, and when
Jefferson Davis is to be tried upon
the indictment found against him for
treason by the grand jury at Nor
folk, on the 10th of May last. The
trial was to have taken place at
Richmond on the 9Th of June, before
the United States District Court.
The counsel for Mr. Davis urged the
Court to proceed with the trial.
Judge Underwood refused to enter
upon the trial at that time, upon va
rious frivolous pretences. The Uni
ted States District Attorney moved
that the trial be postponed till Octo-
Der. Judge Underwood granted the
motion, declaring as follows:
This Court will adjourn, not until No
VEN Der, but until the frst Tuesday in
October, which time is preferred by the
Chief Justice and Attorney General. The
case will then, if not before disposed Of,
be taken up.
1t is understood in Government
legal quarters in Virginia, having
knowledge Of what relates to the pro-
posed trial, that the Chief Justice
will, in his own time, try Jefferson
Davis, but not at the next term. The
matter is all in the hands Of the
proper judicial officers, and is beyond
the reach Of the President. In re-
spect to the game of such treacherous
and mercenary politicians as But

thing for base partisan purposes, to
inhame men against an iDcarcerated

Ep1roBs LEADER: A number Of wealthy
families east Of the Public Square nave
been visited by a female who enlisted their
sympathies in her behalf to q considerable
extent by her straightforward story of dis
tress and poverty, to-wit: Her husband
had fallen from a mast on a weasel, broke
his back and lay at home helpless. There
fore the maintenance Of their six children
devolved upon herself She succeeded in
begging large quantities Of good clothing,
which she knows well how to dispose of to
profit. A benevolent lady, hearing her
statements of destitution this cold weather
that they had no bed and very little to
v them, gave her two coverlets, and in
ouired il her children went to the Indus
trial School She answered: Eyes, and
got some fine presents at Christmas" Tit
lady was kiId and eredulous. Wishing 10
aid the unfortunate and ascertain facts, she
fastened to the Industrial School and wish
ed us to make g visit to the place she named
as her residence. After much inquiry and
search we found sheh ad boarded near there,
but in no such house Is she described. She
had no children, but happened to know
some ~neighbors whose chlldren had receIv-
ed some things at our school. She had no
sick husband, but kept q young man in
idleness and whisky, who frequently
scolded because she sold her nice things 80
cheap. She has no residence, but stopped
at low miserable houses. They both stop
ped at one of our principal hotels on Supe-
rior street for which they paid five dollars,
making an appearance according to the
clothing she obtained. We leave others to
make comments R. WATERToN.
