The grave responsibilities growing out
of the situation are felt and appreci-

Jefferson Davis and the Lincoln
Murder-Radical Malignancy.


An effort--a desperate one--is being made
by the vengeful Radicals, aided by Judge
Holt, to fix upon jefferson Davis and c. c.
Clay completely In the assassination of Mr..
Lincoln. Judge Holt has been arguing the
case before the Judiciary Committee by his
own peculiar and untenable opinions In re-
gard TO the guilt of the parties. His wild
theories are caught up by the correspou-
dents of the Radical press, and telegraphed
over the country as facts. IL Is matter of
inquiry here how Congress proposes TO con-
trol the case, even If the allegations of Holt
and others rs to the guilt of Davis and Clay
were proved to be true. Congress certainly
can not pass a law now TO punish an act
long since committed; and il the facts Of
their guilt are susceptible Of proof the
civil tribunals are open here to try the par
ties.
The favorite mode of Attorney-g general
Speed and Judge Holt of trying by military
commissions has been exploded by the de-
cisiOn of the Supreme Court; and If Davis
and Clay must be tried for the assassina-
tion of Lincoln, the trial must take place
in civil court and that unfortunately. for
Speed, Holt and Stanton, can not be organ
lied to convict.

The Deering Murder.

PHILADELPHIA. April iS
The grand jury this morning found true
bill of Indictment against Antoine Probst,
for the murder OF the Deering family. The
prisoner was brought into court and ar
raigned at one O'Clock this afternoon. After
much legal delay, the prisoner having no
counsel, the court assigned him Messrs.
john y. O'Neill and j. w. Albert. The pris-
oner at first stated he did not wish to have
any defense at all, but subsequently with
drew his objections to having counsel. Az
terra conversation with the prisoner, Mr..
O'Neill asked that the arraignment be post
poned until himself and colleague could be
afforded time to examine the Indictment.
II Is understood the prisoner expresses u
willingness to plead guilty to the court In
the bill charging him with the murder OF
Cornelius Carey,
The District Attorney, however, designs
to try him upon the court charging him
with the murderof Mr.. Deering. This will
show the confidence OF the Commonwealth
officer in the strength of this case without
ayailing himselfo of the pretended confession
OF the murder.

TReieasc of Hon. @. @. CLAY.

"A wAsaIKdToS, April is.
Mrs. Clay, at late hour last night OBJ
tanned from the President an order for the
release Of hef husband, Clement G. Clay.
jun. 1t was near midnight when the order
was written out by General Townsend
and but one newspaper correspondent got
q copy, byJR, previous arrangement with
parole, combining Mr.. Clay TO his own
State, with the privilege Of visiting other
parts OF the United States, and requiring
him to take the oath Of allegiance and re-
spond when called to answer any charges
that may be preferred against him.
Already the Radiesls are blaming Mr..
johnson for releasing Clay, and Senator
Wilson Is reported rs saying he didn't rec
ommend Clayls release. | have just now
been permitted to examine the papers filed
at the Executive Mansion by Mr.. Clay; |
find that acknowledgement Grant recom--
mends the release Of Clay, because he thinks
he may safely be left at large on parole or
by amnesty. The manner of Clay's surren-
der Ia sufficient guarantee for his observ-
anee of any parole that might be taken by
him TO appear when called for. He rec
ommends his release on parole not to leave
the limits of his State without permission,
and TO surrender himself to the civil author
ities for trial when called upon.
Hon. Henry Wilson. Senator from Mas
sachusetts, has no hesitation in recommend
ing the release of Mr.. Clay upon parole,
aud has no doubt that he will be forthcom-
Ing when his presence Is required by the
Government.
Hon. Thaddeus Stevens says he would
treat Clay as belligerent unless he was
In the conspiracy to assasslnate Mr. Lin
coin, which he does not believe. He would
contiscate his property and let him go.
X. j. Walker has known Clay for many
years, and pronounces him incapable of the
crime of Mr.. Lincoln's assassination, and
when he escaped was certain he surren-
dered himself in hopes of securing trial.
Among hundreds of loyal men who have
conyersed with him, none believe him
guilty of completely with the assassina-
tion. There Is a general desire that If not
pardoned he may be paroled.
