VVbv Does Chief Justice Chase
Hesitate .

Chief Justice CHASE Is a man who man
soes n maintain his standing in the Re-
publican. party unehallenged. From the
Radical standpoint, his loyalty Is viewed
as,inaexibly unchanging; and from this
view the opinionsis obtained, that he is ex-
tremely solciteus that "treasOn should De
made odious." Now, has it ever occurred
TO Gthose who are beginning to inveign
against President JOHNSON because JbFE.
D.y,is has not been brought to trial and
condemned to execution for "treason," why
,tis that Chief JusCice CHASE has interpos-
ed sundry seemingly trivial objections 10
trvino him at this time on the charge OF
treasonP The President long since urged
that the proper steps be taken for such
trial: but Chief Justice CHASE desired a
reorganization of the Court-was averse to
irving him in any State except the State
wherein he personally did acts that are ae-
connted reasonable. And now we are
told that he is not wiling to undertake such
trial until after the writ of hdbeds corpus
shall have been restored, and that he does
not desire its restoration ....
THERE'S wherefore to this disinclination
on the part of Chief Justice CHASE to enter
unon the trial of JEFF. DAVIS. Certainly,
the Chief Justice is not man who is slow
TO grasp anything that promises to contrib
ute in even the least to his elevation to the
Presidency. He found qualification in
speech- making tour not long since to the
Negroes of the South. A few nights ago
in the city of New York, he sought an oc-
casion on which to make a speech FeJolc-
ing over the fact that Congress had passed
the Civil Rights bill over the veto of the
President, aud declaring that Congress, as
its next duty, should confer suffrage upon
the Negroe,; but he did not on that occa-
sion-nor do we recollect that ne did on any
former occasiOn-ntimate that the trial
and execution of JEFF. DAVIS were
demanded, in order that ineffable odi-
nm should be branded upon "treason"
He is clear that the Negro should be ele-
waited to position considerably above the
one he now occupies; but evidently ne
does not see that he can make any reputa-
tion ont of the trial of JEFF. DAVIS that
can be serviceabe to him; for it admits OF
no doub. that if he thought he could he
would be glad to hasten his trial. He is'
we think it perfectly safe to conclude, not
certain that JEFF. DAVIS could be convict
ed of and executed for treason, in the court
over whielr he would be called to preside
in the event of his trial; and he fears that
If such conviction and execution should not
result from the trial, the great mass of his
party would hold him guilty of not fully
having done his duty in the matter. 1t is
out of no regard to the feelings OF JEFF
DAVIS that Chief Justice CHASE is disln-
clined to undertake his trial. 1t is out OF
regard tor his own reputation, and nothing
elSe.i ..-. t.I- 81.

it is regarded as back down and succumhing
to the President. TIE Stockton (Cdl. LndPend-

readers upon the prospect of speedy reconstruc-

that the President will have his arbitrary way"
This is truly distressing. 1t moves our compass
sion. We hope, however, that disappointment
will serve to stay the hands of the mischief ma
kers and awaken a more liberal and expanded
nationality IN their hearts. They see now that
the Presidents plan is the only practicable mode
of finally and eifectually closing the breach be-
tween the sections. Kind words and confidence,
will turn away wrath but we have yet to learn
that malice, vindictiveness, persecution and dis
trust. ever made friends. If secession WAS wrong
FIVE years age it is equally so to-day. II the
Southern States are out of the Union, as the
radicals contend, we had no cause OF war against
them. If they are in the Union, they are, under
the Constitution, entitled to representation, and
to deny them that right is as revolutionary AS
an ordinance of secession. This is the view OF
the President, and on the issue thus made, he
throws himself upon the country. We advise
the radicals, then, to save themselves before 1t
is too late for-if little while, should they
stand out against it., they will be swept into
nothingness by the great popular tide which is
already silently swelling in the land.
