= TRIAL BY MILITARY CONFESSIONAL
military commission will convene at Camp
Grant, at two o'clock this afternoon, TO
consider the cases of Hotze and Hovey.-
1t will be remembered by our readers that
William Hovey, school teacher, was con-
yicted on the 1lth instant of unlawfully
beating and assaulting a small boy
named Hotze, and was sentenced by the
Hastings Court of Magistrates to thirty
days confinement and to pay fine OF sl5o.
On the same day Governor Peirpoint re-
mitted the sentence so far as the imprison-
ment was concerned, but was unable to re-
init the fine. General SchOfield being ap-
pealed to, ordered an investigation OF the
case before the military commission to
which we have above alluded.
A brother of young Hotze was subse-
ouently arrested for cowhiding Hovey,
and, being judged guilty, was fined one
cent. This decision being unsatisfactory
this case also will be brought before the
commission. The. magistrates on the
bench at both trials have been summoned
as witnesses, and much interest is mani
tested to learn the result.

MAYO's CoURT-MAYoR MAYO PREsI-
DING-SATURDAY M0RNING.-Henry X.
Clarke, man from New York, was ar
raigned for obtaining 50 from Wills u.
Babcock under false pretences, and with
intent to defraud.
From the evidence Of Mr.. Babcock, the
proprietor of the St. Charles Hotel, Mr..
Echol, one Of the proprietorS of the EX-
change, and Mr.. Orth, clerk at the Bal.
lard House, it appeared that Clarke had
stopped at all of these houses, pretending
to be New York lawyer, and to have
certified check for large amount OF mo-
ney. He had obtained SIS from Colonel
Darlington upon the allegation that he had
a certified check. He had left all these
places without paying his board. lie made
application at the st. Charles, saying that
he had had difficulty with Mr.. McMahoD,
and that he was afraid that he would get
into a difficulty. Here, Clarke bor-
rowed from Mr.. Babcock 81, stating that
Mr.. Foster had money for Marx, and that
he could get the money. When he called
on one Mr.. Foster he found that the allie
CATION was false, and that he had no money
belonging to Marx. Clarke was discharged,
the charge on the warrant not being sus-
tanned.
Alphonsus Marion, Frenchman, was ar
raigned for assaulting and threatening to
kill David Wood. In the midst of Woods
evidence Marion broke forth in French in
such a strain that it was found necessary
to carry him off. AS the officers were con-
veying him to some spot where his temper
might cool off little, he made desperate
effort as if to put the officers away from
him, his tongue going all'the time like
wheat fan. At last he was subdued, and
carried to the Valley inn, where he has
doubtless, ere this, recovered his equa-
nimitY.

Important Proposition.

The following statement is made by the
Washington correspondent of the New York
Herald :"
(" An important proposition has just been
started by influential Republicans which seems
to meet with considerable favor, and may have
controlling influence upon the action of
Congress at the approaching session and upon
the next Presidential election 1t is that
Congressional committee shall be appointed,
by the consent of all Senators aud Rcpresen-
tatiycs who concur III the proposition, to wait
upon President johnson and REQUEST him to
state definitely what plan he has TO submit for
the speedy reconstruction and adj sson of the
Southern States, as he has Hitherto opposed
every policy that has been initiated by Con-
gress. They presume that he has definite
practical plan Of reconstruction in his own
mind which lie believes would be effective and
which would meet his approval. They would
then ascertain to certainty whether there is
any possibility of the legislative and execu-
tive branches of the government harmonizng
on policy that would restore the cx-rebel
States to representation before the next Pres
remain in its presef% Sr %hther the country must
branches shall be brought into accord by the
decision of the ballot, box in 1868. Attempts
have before been made to patch upa compro-
mise between the President and Congress,
but they have been only individual volunteer
efforts. The proposed movement contemplates
the concurrence of sufficient number of Re-
publicans to secure majority of each House
should any agreement be possible, and the op.
plication to the President will he formal and
anthoratve. it originates with those who
fear that impeachment may bring tlestruc-
tive financial crisis upon the country, and is
said to meet the approval of Senator Morgan,
of New York, and other representatives Of
constituencies particularly concerned in the f.
nancial prosperity of tho country. 1t would
moreover form the neuclus of new eonstitu-
,ional party all over the Uniou."
