Jan. 4, 1886.
To the Prsident.-
Sir: have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt from you of copy of the
resolution of the Senate of the United
States of the date of the DIST of Deem
Der, 1865. In that resolution the Senate
respectfully request to be informed upon
what charges and for what reasons jeff
Davis is still held in confinement, and
why he has not been put on trial. When
the war was at its crisis, jeff. Davis,
commander-in-chief of the army of in
surgents, was taken prisoner with other
prominent rebels by the military forces
of the United States. 1t was the duty
of the military so to take them. They
have been heretofore and are yet held
as prisoners of war. Though active
hostilities have ceased, state of war
still exists over the territory in rebel
lion, and until peace shall come in fact
and in law they can rightfully be held
as prisoners of war.
have ever thought that trials for high
treason cannot be had before a military
tribunal. The civil courts have alone
Jurisdiction of that crime. The question
then arises, where and when must the
trials thereof be held. I'm that clause of
the Constitution mentioned iii the reso-
luton of the Senate, ii is plainly written
they must be held in the state and dis.
trict wherein the crime shall have been
committed. / know many persons of
learning and ability entertain the opin-
ion that the commanderin-chief of the
rebel armies should be regarded as con-
additionally present with all the insur-
gents who prosecuted hostilities and
made raids upon the northern and south
ern borders of the loyal states. This
doctrine of constructive presence, carried
out to its logical consequences, would
make all who have been with the rebel
armies liable to trial in any state and
district into which any portion of those
armies had made the slightest incursion.
Not being persuaded of the correctness
OF that opinion, but regarding the doc
trine mentioned as of doubtful copstitu-
tionality, have thought il not proper
to advise you to cause criminal proceed
ings to be instituted against Jefferson
Davis or any insurgent In states or d *
tricts in which they were not actually
present during the prosecution of hostii-
tiles. Some prominent rebels were per.
sonally present at the invasion of Mary.

upon thelsurrender of the rebel armies
While | think these persons have no
ultimate protection from prosecutions
for high treason, have thought il
would be a violation of their paroIes to
prosecute them for crimes before the
political power of the government has
proclaimed that the rebellion has been
suppressed.
1t follows from what have said that
/ am of opinion that Jefferson Davis
and others Of the insurgents ought to he

tricts in which they in person especially
