ding Chief Justice Chase declines to preside,
until he can be assured that martial law is alb.

hicting decisions in the War Department and
by the commanders Of military departments as
to the effect OF t:le peace proclamation with re-
gart TO the restoration of civil law in the States
lately IN rebellion, the Chief Justice does not
t zee that 1t would be- seenly for Judge of the

can say upon good authority that the Presi-

abrogating martial law in the districts where
the rebellion is declared to have ceased in ali
matters IN which the civil courts lave jrrisdic-
