rug TRIAL OF JEFFERSON DAVIS.
e,,ce military government has been
.,nSrswn by the proclamation declaring
""' Sa established throughout all the
pc", Chicf.Jmsticc Chase and associate
S'' .:s, Wnvnc have been ready to join
y, mis- nris,r;ct udgc In the several districta
10, ,,d;ng the Circuit Court. They could
u . "; ;n;p in holding them while the military
n'' ,:rnmcn, lasted, but have been always
,m:rg 10 do so as soon rs military supervi-
VA wa and control should be disclaimed. In.
,s y, the Chicf.Justicc, soon after the
Lsc Of the last term OF the Supreme
CT in April last, requested the Pre-
';,rot 20 issue q proclamation, no mat.
49, how short, but expressly disclaiming
',,.h Supervision and control by declaring
tia! law abrogated and the habeds cor
,, restored in all cases Of which the
led States Court had jurisdiction.
ia3 this been done he would have joined
I,3cc Underwood in holding the Circuit
cgrt in May last. Since then an act
u Congress has been passed abolishing
.. O: the circuits, and changing seven
.tsr> one Of which is that including the
3,.gict Of Virginia, but making no provi-
con for new allotment of judges of the
>rn-rmc Court to the new circuits. This
axes il very doubtful whether those
..l,,s have any authority 10 hold the Cir
mi, Courts, or sit with the district judges
r. r5lding them; but il does not affect at
~ ,bc authority Of the district judges to
: IA tNrm. The Circuit Court will be held
:, Richmond, in November, by Judge I'M
5.ru,,l. and will doubtless try any case
at;.h tn, Government may bring before
