Tbs following extract from the proceed

CLEAN OF hope that the long and unneces-
sary confinement oi Jefferson Davis is
drawing to q close, unnecessary from the
fact that the most loyal in the land-men
like Horace Greeley--have stood ready fol
more than p year to become his bail in any
amount
Mr.. Wilson introduced the following
concurrent resolution
"Whereas Jefferson Davis, Il citizen OF
the State Of Mississippi, was captured by u
military force in the service Of the United
States, Oh the 18th day of May, 1865, and
has since been held III confinement rs a

as the said Jefferson DAVIS stands charged,
on the highest authority, with the heinous
crime of conspiring to murder the late
President Of the United States, Abraham
Lincoln, and is also indicted for treason
and whereas the said Jefferson Davis has
persistently declared his innocence OF the
offences charged against him, and through
his legal advisers, by all means known to
the law, has sought and demanded q speedy
and public trial by due process OF law, be-
fore civil tribunal of competent Jurlsdlc.

the demands of justice, the spirit Of the
laws and the requirement of the constitu

policy, and the national honor unite in re
commencing that the said Jefferson Davis
be brought to speedy trial, or that he be
released from confinement, on bail, or OF

should be printed and laid over.
