TIE WASHINGTON CHRONICLE. Of the LIST, says:
'"The Government has not authorized the publica-
ton Of any ~intimation as TO- its course in the trial
OF Jefferson Davis at the November term of the
Circuit Court in Richmond, consequently oil the
statements that havo heretofore been published
are mere s~urmises. It is semi-ofacially stated,
however, that the Government will be Obliged to
ask for q further postponement Of the trial, which
request will a~ssuredly bs followed by 6 motion on
tho part Of the counsel for the defence to enter q
note pvosequS. This motion will be argued at
length before Judge Underwood or Chief Justice
Chase; but it is not certain that the latter will be
present OF the trial. The idea that Attorney-Gen
eral Stsnbery has anything to do directly with the
case, is erroneous. as District Attorney Chandler,
Of Virginia, is alone responsible for the manner In
which it lis conducted, and Mr.. Stanbeyy has
merely boen called on to. authorize him TO employ
assistance in prosecuting the trial. MIR. stsnbery
has, of course. been consulted Regarding the mat
tor, and could, il he choose to do so, volunteer his
services In the case; but Mr.. Chandler is At pres

for tho delay, IL IL ooours."

the President to be issued through the head
quarters of the General of the Army, made
stationary in Washington. The question is,
can the General refuse to issue any order
which he is directed to issue by the Presi-
dent? No such authority is conferred on him
in the law by express words; but the Consti-
tuition does by express words make the Presi-
dent Commander Chief an authority which
would be nulliied if the only officer through
whom he can issue orders had any choice as 70
whether he would obey.

when Shall We Have Peace I!

From The NJ Y. Tribune.
The first interest of the American people is
Justice but the second-hardly less important,
and more palpably urgent--is peace. We need
to build, and repair, and restore, and replant.
Vast regions, lately devastated by civil war,
still lie waste; multitudes of widows and
orphans e the war; in spite of returning
abundan !, are thin-clad and famishing There
is much capital at the North which should be
transferred to the South, and there invested
in draining swamps, civilizing wilds, erecting
factories, and making all manner of useful
wares and fabrics. Something is being done
in the right direction but immensely more
awaits the advent OF assured peace.
How long must that be still awaited
Had President Johnson called the late Con-
gress directly on his accession to power and
said to it 1.-THE Rebellion is ended; the work
of reconstruction should begin at once. l
propose such and such bases; consider and
modify them as You shall see ft''-all would
have been ended ere this. Those who had
been Rebels were then ready and anxious for
reconstruction, and prepared to accept any
terms that did not threaten their property or
their lives.
Mr.. Johnson did not call Congress: he de-
Vised and promul gated a programme of his
own 1t had all the faults which are attributed
to the plan of Congress, differing from that
only in putting the Southern blacks who were
mainly loyal, under the feet of the whites,
who had nearly all been Rebels.
Congress at length met, and dissented from
the Presidents programme; but was quite too
tardy in perfecting and submitting one of its
own. The Southern whites, believing they
were al liberty to choose, adhered to the Pre-
sident's plan; the blacks, with nearly all whites
who had been loyal throughout, sided witt
Congress. Hence reconstruction halted while
an appeal was taken to the people OF the loya
States, which resulted in an overwhelming
majority for Congress; which thereupon re
vised its terms of reconstruction, making then
less favorable to the ex-Rebels than they ha'
been. It's new terms differ radically from tn
old in this: they are not proffer to be consi
dered; they are laws to be obeyed: ana m tn
indioations have been favorable to genera
obedience.

The Question of Relative AuthOrity-A
Pttiful Dispute.

From he ~ Y. Times
Inc dispute raised by the President touch
ing The powers of the General-in- n-Chief under
.ne reconstruction acts is characteristic, and
IN 'ne least degree discreditable. 1t is another
iiiuS'iauon OF the disingenuous spirit that
Prev@iiS az the White House in regard to the
interpretation OF Congressional enactments.
ana II exemplihes the dishonesty of Mr. John
son IN all that he has done or proposes to do
on the subject of reconstruction under the
existing laws. ',f''t 's'-4
With the help of pettifOggers, it seems, Mr..
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-09-02

that Mr.. Johnson declared in il that he would
yield to the law under protest; Il is not forgot
ten that the suspicion that he would resist
nearly resulted in his immediate impeachment.
His construction of the Constitution is not an
element of the dispute; he has held nearly all
the laws passed by the Thirty ninth Congress
unconstitutional The question is solely one
of understanding of the law, and obedience.
1.-The remedy" he then said, "must come
from the people themselves"
But now where does Andrew johnson seek
his remedyY In his own arbitrary power. He
forces his Interpretation of the law upon Gene
raj Grant, and compels Grant to submit to il.
Grant has the law behind him, Congress to
lean upon, the Presidents own Interpretation
as an argument, the people to sustain him,
yet he is overruled by Presidential tyranny.
Johnson has admitted that he is not to be the
Judge between himself and Congress, admits
that the laws are binding till repealed, whether
constitutional or not, yet makes himself the
Judge, and repeals at his pleasure. He ap
points and directs, though he has announced
that the law gives to the General the ultimate
control of appointments. He tears from Grants
reluctant hands the weapons with which Con-
gress armed him. and usurps all the authority
of which he solemnly proclaimed he had been
absolutely deprived.
But was Mr. Johnson's July Interpretation
of the law right, so far as he declared that
Congress gave the supreme executive power
to the General2 Unquestionably. There may
be verbal looseness in some of the sections,
but the law itself is plain. Everywhere the
General of the Army, not the President, is
named as the officer to whom all appeals shall
be made, by whom alone any order may be
disapproved And to secure by double security
the meaning which stood self-revealed and
clear as the sun, Congress added the eleventh
section, which declares, "That all the provi-
sions of this act, and the acts to which this is
supplementary, shall be construed literally to
the end that all the intents thereof may be
fully and perfectly carried out" Andrew
Johnson knows these intents, but he construes
| every word with an intellect which, to gain its
end, is not ashamed to affect the most abject
and grovelling imbecility. We regret that
| General Grant did not maintain the rights
| given to him by Congress, but he may yet
| more clearly understand the law of which he
is the executive. He has only to assert the
constitutional powers given him by Congress,
| by the law maker, to conquer for the people.
| The President cannot remove or suspend him.
| Congress, in imposing upon him the response
bility of executing its laws, placed its irwin
| chile spear in his hand, and its impenetrable
/ buckler on his arm.

He thus inaugurates q new struggle, Whlc
threatens to be q long and bitter one.
But why should it? Who is to gain by II
If the Southern States shall promptly COM
plv with the requirements OF Congress, the
work of reconstruction may be soon completed.
The machinery is in motion; the registrations
are nearly cOmpleted every State may be
organized as Congress presoribes before this
year closes. But If, on the contrary, the South
shall reject the terms of Congress, we are all
at sea for no one knows how long. Meantime,
military rule must be maintained at the South
at heavy COST while peace, security and thrift
cannot return. The present Congress holds
till March 3, 1869; and no one magines
that it will meantime abandon the course
which it has already marked out. The South
may have reconstruction and peace by accept
ing the terms dictated by Congress; it may
reject these, and cling to Johnson if it will;
but, if it should, all must await in doubt
and feud the issue of the next Presidential
contest.
Who wishes thus to protraot fruitless
strife, pernicious uncertainty 2 What is to
be gained thereby and who will gain it (!
If the South should now refuse to recon-
struct her States as Congress has prescribed
she cannot think so badly as she has talked of
military despotism. She will virtually say that
her position is quite tolerable when contrasted
with a form of selfgovernment which recog-
nizes and treats blacks as men. To reject the
terms of Congress would be to defy that body
to do its worst.
Let us have peace mot some time nor per-
haps, but surely and soon Industry and
business are weary of waiting while politicians
play out their little game. Let us have none
other than real peace; but let US have this
