New-York daily tribune., 1866-01-13

The celebrated case of Franklin w. Smith
and brother was one of those which most
largely helped to bring military tribunals into
public contempt. Those two gentlemen were
arrested and kept in confinement, their papers
seized, their business destroyed, their reputation
damaged, and naval court martial, "organ'
lied to convict" pursued them unrelentlngiy
till a wiser and juster hand arrested the malice
of their prosecutors. II is known that President
Lincoln, after full investigation OF the case'
annuled the whole proceedings, but 1t Is re-
markabe that until this week the actual record
of his decision could never be obtained from the
Navy Department. An exact copy is still WITH
held. but the following was presented on
Wednesday to the Boston Board OF Trade as
being very nearly the words of the late Prcsi-
dent:
"U1.r,as. Franklin w Smith had transactions with
the NAVY Department TO the amount of one million and
quarter Of a million Of dollars and. rhereas' he had
the chance TO steal quarter OF million. and was only
charged with stealing twenty-five hundred dollars
and the question now is about his stealing hundred
don't believe he stole anything at all Therefore, the
record and findings disapproved-declaredn null and
void ard the defendants are fully discharged"
II would be difficult to sum up the rights and
wrongs of the business more briefly than that,
or to find paragraph more characterlstlcally
and unmistakably Mr.. Lincolns. The effect OF
the Presidents decision was not to pardon the
Messrs. Smith-it was TO make the proceedings
against them void aJ initio, to censure the
Court, to annul its findings, to repair, so far as
any remedy could repair, the atrocious injustice
of the prosecution, and TO restore the innocent
defendants to the full enjoyment OF that honor
able repute Of which an interested malignity
had attempted to deprive them.

whole road must be built by July, 1876, and
80 miles within the first two years.
Il will thus be seen that the groat WORK Oh

thus be in railroad Importance the main city IN
America. It's friends indulge the hope that IL
will be finished in four or five years.
The Northern Line will probably be finished
in ten years. This will be important in the
fact that it will absorb the British Amer

branch seems to have been abandoned, but we
presume only temporarily. After the South LAS
become pacifed, and order has been restored In
Mexico we may hope to have line from New

once that It was my marriage you heard of

brother had quarreled with me years ago
about money matters, and his wife never
forgaye me until the other day. so It was no
wonder you had never heard at Chaley
Bridge, Of Mildred Grant of the last gem

know that the Grants had been Richards,
always from father to son. Gilbert confded
to me that he had taken Mildred for me at

DANCE OF DEATH.-The merciless king of
terrors still holds high carnival at Nash
vile. With good bracing weather, there
comes but slight abatement of the terrible
epidemic. Notwithstanding the assertion
by the Banner, that not over a thousand
people have left that city in consequence
of the dreadful pestilence," we have it on
the authority of many prominent and trust
worthy citizens of that place, that not less
than ten thousand persons have sought re-
fuge in the interior of Tennessee and in
neighboring cities. Our correspondent,
who has just arrived from Nashville, rep
resents the mortality as even greater than
reported. Business is almost entirely at q
dead lock" and the streets, in their de-
serted appearance, sadly bespeak the ca

city are over-worked. ee have fallen
victims to the disease, three others

The municipal authorities are undoubt-
edly sadly at fault in failing to disinfect
and cleanse in time. While other cities of
the country have expended thousands in
this direction, the extent of the efforts put
forth In Nashville has been the burning of
a few gallons of tar. The alleys and streets
IN the suburbs are Extensively filthy. A
few thousand dollars, judiciously expend-
ed In removing filth from out-yards and
alleys, and distributing dsinfectants,
would have saved to Nashville hundreds of
lives, and injury to ner trade that months
OF freedom from epidemic will hardly suf-
fice to repair.
The gloom that enshrouds the city is
that of a night Of disaster, through which
the people grope in fear and trembling,
neglecting even the plainest dictates Of
sober thought, care and cleanliness.

CONFLICT OF CIVIL AND MILITARY AU-
THoRITIEs. The Intendant of Tallahassee
having put in force the ordinance of the
town against disorderly conduct in the
case of some United States soldiers, Gen.
Foster issued peremptory order forbid
ding the arrest of any of his men. The
htendant replied that he was under the
impression that civil law had been restored
in Florida by the Presidents proclamation
Gen. Foster in reply, says that "martial
law is still supreme in this State" The
lntendant responds in manly letter, OBJ
jecting to the license thus given 'sthe sub
jects" of Gen. Foster to drink, carouse
and fight at the hotels, to violate the Sab
bath, and make {. colored brothel of the
capital. He tells Gen. Foster that he can
not revive martial law without denying
the authority of the President, and pro-
tests against this arbitrary assumption of
power. In conclusion, he throws the fol-
lowing brick at the General
81 DO, in the name of the civil authorities
Of this place-the Intendant and Town
Council-enter my most solemn protest;
and l notify your honor that, inasmuch as
the course of public justice has been Sc
r,uusly impeded by this action of yours,
shall take the earliest opportunity of ar
raigning you before the civil tribunals of
this State
Good for the Intendant. He has some
backbone. We think this Gen. Foster will
soon find himself slightly elevated, or, in
other words, ''hoisted out" of his situa ton.
President Johnson will stand no such nom
sense.
