The correspondence between tho Prcsl-
dent md tho Attorney Genernl In relation
to JcG. Dayis, seems to be continuation of
the controversy with Chief Justice Chase on
the questions, Who holds the prisoner! and
Who Is responsible Tor the de1sy ofl,ls trial
President johnson stated In his st. Louis
speech that Judge Chase was the real
custodian Of Jeff, and that he was
responsible for tho postponctnent
Of his trial. The New York Tribuns replied
to this statement In An elaborate nrtscle,
evidently inspired by the Chief Justice.
The article embraced ten points, showing
that the Chief Justice had not been rcspon.
siblc for tho delay heretofore, and would not
be responsible for any delay hereafter.
Heretofore, 1t WAS alleged, martial law had
prevailed In Virgins. Hereafter, It was
the Chief Justice, until further legislation
should bo had by Consress, because, at
the last session, law was passed
changing Ills Circuit. and some Of the others,
but not providing for an allotment Of
Judges otbc new Circuits. 4 Court could
be held In Virginia, however, By = District
Judge,
Attorney General Stanbcrry now says that
Jefferson Davis Is held in Fortress Monroe At
the suggestion Of tho United States District
Atto1ney-thcre being no other place Of con-
lncment in tho State where hs would be 50
secure and so comfortable. As to the change
in The boundaries of tue Circuits, he says that
no allotment OF judges was provided for, and
that perhaps such allotment can be made
! only By Congress. So 1t Is definitely asces-
mined that nothing is to be done with Davis
| until aftc.sthe rc-asscmblinr of Congress, un-
less he be tried before District judge.
| 1t eecms hardly necessary to rise such a
pother over project, the purpose OF which
undoubtedly is to enable Jury Of Davis
accomrliecs in treason 10 brIus In a verdict
that State has right to secede,
and that Chief Justice Chase has nc

hnt is, whether the United States Circuit

C!a::sc will not entertain any question Of fthl
