The "World" noticing the fact
that hief-Justice Chase presided
last evening at meeting of the fe-
male branch of the Freedmen's AS
sociation in Philadelphia, may we'll

"This is about the only duty that
he, as ChiefJustice, performs,
and were it not for the negro meet
ings in different parts of the coun-
try the public would hardly be able
to realize that there is such person
as Chief Justice Chase. He has
earned for himself the title of per-
ambulating Chief-Justice, and con-
stantly turns up addressing the ne
groes in the South, presiding at ne
gro meetings in New England, Wash
ington, or Philadelphia. This APP
pears to be his Interpretation Of the
duties of his Office. The Legitimate
work of his position is left untouched
in order that he may have time tc
wander around among his coloreC
brcthcrn. 1t matters not to him
that the Executive Of the nation and
the people are demanding the trial
of the State prisoner now confined
at Fortress Monroe, and are await
ing his action in the case. If Mr..
Chase has no respect for himself, he

pcctcd TO fill; and he cannot attend
to his duties he should resign and
make room for some enc who will.
