THE LINCOLN CONSTRUCTORS
late decision of the Supreme Court
will annul the decisions of military
commissions where civilians have been
convicted. 1t is generally understood
in Washington that Andrew Sterrett
Ridgley. ESQ.,, of the Baltimore Bar
has applied to the Supreme Court Tor
writ of ha5eas corpus in the case OF
DR.. Mudd, sentenced by military
commission to imprisonment for lie
at the Dry Tortugas, Florida for al
legged completely with the assasslns OF
the late President Lincoln. Spangler
and O'Laughlin and Col. St Legef
Grenfel will also come out under SIM
/ liar writs and have there trials before
civil tribunals.
The telegraph announced the other
day that Mai Gen. O. o. Howard, the
chief mogul of the Freedman Bureau,
and a member of the Congressional
excursion party, made brief address
to the negroes at Nashville. The
speech has been printed and we have
read it. It contains but little of in
terest. He has not come across a
negro yet who wanted to return to
Slavery very remarkable discovery
indeed. He has found out more then
we of thy South have yet learned, i. e.,
that the freedman will work faithfully.
His advice, however, is very good and
we make short extract from it, hop
ing that the ''man and brother" may
profit thereby:
To rise high in civilization, the sim
plest way is to put aside vice and sin,
and the best way TO do this is for each
one to become follower of Christ.
The great hope of the four million
colored people of the South is in be-
coming followers of Christ.
Now you must abandon deception
and become truthful and honest. Gain
the confidence of all by straightfor
ward dealing. Be candid, sincere in
every transaction. So with reference
to other virtues The white mans
worst foe is whiskey, and it will be the
colored mans also, unless the evil is
checked.

Hiring of Freedmen.

So far as we have been able to make
inquiry, the experience of a majority
of the planters is against hiring freed
men for stated wages, and in favor OF
giving them for compensation a GER
tain portion of the crop. This, too,
is more satisfactory to the laborer,
who has thus greater stimulus to IN
dustry. We believe it the safest and
most harmonious policy for both par
ties. Very many negroes in this vi
cinitv and elsewhere have not, as yet,
made contracts for the next year.
They should do so at once. They
have had ample time during the hol-
idays to look about with a view to Sc
curing better situations; and if they
are wise they will resume work some
where before they squander all their
earnings of the past year. We hope
they will all find good employ :
ment and comfortable homes and
such they have very generally
found with their old masters, who
are, after all, their truest friends. All
freedmen not residing in Incorporated
cities or towns, who do not make con-
tracts for the year before the second
Monday in this month, are liable to be
dealt with as Migrants. Contracts
should be made in duplicate, with each
laborer separately, except in case of
families. Each copy of the contract
should have five cent revenue stamp
attached, cancelled as the law directs.
We have for sale at this office a variety
Of forms, any of which we will send by
mail postage paid at ST % per quire.
Parties ordering will please specify
the kind they want

BISHOP GREEN.-It is with feelings
of sadness and deep regret that we
contemplate the departure Of Bishop
Green, who, with his family, leaves in
few days for his new home in Ten
nessee. The good Bishop has lived
in our midst number of years, and
has gained a strong hold upon our
affections All who know him will feel
sensibly his absence. He has moved
among us a gentle, quiet spirit of good,
exciting holy, refining influence upon
all who have come in contact with
him.
Life is, with some men, constant
struggle struggle between good and
evil-and death only ends it; while
others, having passed through scathing
ordeals, through storms and tempests,
reach calm seas, with the Celestial City
in view, peacefully waiting their sum-
mons to enter the. pearly gates. One
of these last we would pronounce the
good Bishop. Upon his silvered locks
the light of another world already
shines, and his soul seems to have
donned it's pure white robe. He is a
perfect gentleman an humble chris
tian; faithful monitor of the young :;
a good, pure man and bears with him
the kindest wishes of his many friends.
May the holy angels guard him, and
make smooth the pathway of his de-
clining years.-Columbu Index

praying the Legislature not to ratify

ceding to any State as is done in the
second section Of the proposed amend
ment, ''the right Or possibility Of de

The greater part of our unfortunate
section is soon to be deprived of mail
facilities. The Post Master General
has, we see, determined to close all
offices in the South where postmas
tiers, at the commencement of the war,
were in arrears with the Government.
The closing of these offices will work
great hardship upon our people, but

A telegram from the publishers OF
the Enterprise Eastern Star brings
the sorrowful announcement of the
death of Robert c.. Miller-an event
for some time expected, He died on
Saturday last at IL o'clock, and was
buried Sunday evening. Mr.. Miller
was, for many years, connected with
the press of Mississippi, and was one
of the most enterprising Journalists in
the State. For several years he has
been Clerk of the House of Represen-
tatives-a position he was peculiarly
qualified to fill. During the late ses-
sion he was at his post, though unable
to attend to the duties of the Office.
His strong voice had failed him, and
his emaciated form too plainly told
that the hand of death was then upon
him. The deceased was about forty
eight years of age, and leaves a large
family, to whom we tender our sin
ccrest sympathy.

The case of Milligan of Indiana, who
was arrested during the war on a
charge of reasonably conspiring
against the government, and sentenced
to death by a military commission,
opens wide field of litigation by the
decision of the Supreme Court. In re-
viewing the case the New York Sun
says: About a year ago, while Mill
gan's sentence was pending, the mat
ter was brought before the Supreme
Court, and the latter gave the opinion
that Milligan could not lawfully be ex-
ecuted under the sentence of the mill
tary commission, and that he should
be turned over to the civil authorities
for trial. The decision which was rem
dered by the Supreme Court on Mon
day, disposes of all the points involved
in the case. It not only declares that
Mi1ligan was not amenable to trial by
military commission, but it enunciated
the general principle that such COM
mission has no right to try civilian
in a State where martial law does not
exist, no matter how fragrant the crime
with which he is charged
If there was no warrant for the trial
of criminals in the Northern States by
military authority during the war,
there was Of course no legality in the
arbitrary arrests that were made all
over the North by such authority.
Under the decision in question we fail
to see what can prevent the residents
of Northern States, who were arrested
ana incarcerated in Government pri-
sons, whose newspapers were sup
pressed, etc, from recovering damages.
The Supreme Court in the Milligan de
Cision declares that the military au-
thorities had no right to interfere in
the matter, because the Circuit Court
of Indiana was open and unobstructed,
and fully competent to dispose of the
case. Hundreds of men were arrested
and imprisoned in the North by mill
tary authority, and yet the civil courts
were operative in every Northern
State The decision in question being
general in its application, we may now
look for an almost endless list of legal
actions against the parties who were
instruments in the arbitrary arrests.
A CONSIDERABLE AcT.-While passing
up the Central railroad a few days
since, we were witness to an act highly
creditable to Gen. West, President of
that road. A young man from New
ton county was on his way to George
town, KY, to attend college with a
view to the ministry, and who was be-
ing aided in his efforts by some benev-
client gentlemen of this State. Rev.
Mr.. Hamberlin, who was on the train,
stated the case to Gen. West, request
ing reduction from the usual fare, if
not inconsistent with the rules of the
road. Gen. West very promptly re-
sponded ~ giving the young man a
full free pass, and letter commencing
him for similar favors to other rail
road officials.
