on Mr.. GREELEY's going on the JEFR. DAVIS
bond, after this style:
",The fawning spaniel Is no emblem or

Sanford Conoyer Again.

The case of Sanford Conover alias Charles
A. Durham was before the supreme Court
of the District again yesterday. Conover
il will be remembered, was sentenced over
\ month ago to an imprisonment of ten
years in the Albany pententiary. The ex-
ecution of the sentence was suspended un-
I'll June lst at the instance of his counsel,
Messrs. ii. c. GoOding and Edward Lander,
who excepted TO the sentence.
Yesterday the case was argued by Mr..
Darlington for the United States and by
Messrs. Gooding aud Lander for the pris-
oner. The defence submitted two points,
the first of which was that Conover was
tried under the statute of 1926, Which was a
general statute, applicable to the United
Estates at large, aud which prescribed a
penalty of not more than five years. JiRi-
prisonment, and that he was sentenced un-
Ider different statute-that Of S5l---whicll
was applicable only to the District oI
columbia, and which prescribed q penalty
of ten years. imprisonment. They con
tended that the sentence was Illegal; as 1t
should have been sentenced In accordance
with the statute under which he was con-
victed. ..,.
The second point made was that by the Law
abolishing the penitentiary In the Distric
lof Columbia, the Secretary of the Interior
was required to designate on the first day
: of each term of the court the prisons Il
: which conviets from the District should %
I sent; that the Secretary Of the Interior hat
not complied with the letter of the law
except in 1868, when he designated thu
prison ut Albany. 1t was contended thai
as the Secretary had failed TO designate thu
. prison as prescribed by law, the court pos
sessed no power TO designate one for Itself
but that, even if the court holds that th'
> letter of the Secretary. written in 1863, wa
: still in force, the sentence of Conover hat
c not cOnformed to it, for the letter designate
the prison at Albany, New York, Will
the court sentenced Conover to be imprls
0 oned in the ALBANY County Penitentiary /;
o and it was argued that there was recog
G nized distinction between prison and
= penitentiary, and that the letter of the LAY
should have been complied with.

in Brooklyn, last Friday, the JEVF. DAVIS
matter was brought up. Many remarks
were made denOuncing those who bailed
and those who permitted the rebel Presi-
dent to be bailed. Mr.. BRECHER said very
emphatieally that "under our laws and in
stitutions the keeping Of DAVIS prisoner
without trial and without bail for more
than six months was unjustifable and
wrong, and that, had his offer been neces-
sary, he would not at any moment the las

RAYMOND writes in the New York Times :
"WENDELL PHILLIPS recently allowed him
self to allude to President JOHNSON as OF
dissipated habits. He did not assert 1t, but
assumed It as n notorious fact which could
and should be taken to account in political
estimates. A year or two ago, when the
crusade against the President was especial
ly hot and reckless, this imputation with q
dozen others equally damaging, was drag
ged into the service, and the whole public
mind was filed and saturated with it. II
can do the President little good now tC
correct any OF these stories, as it can dC
little harm to repeat them. Butwe believe
1t is universally known by all who hav'
the best means of knowing, that there i
: not sylable'of truth in this assumption
that Mr.. JoHNsoN's personal habits hav
been rigidly and severely abstemiou
ever since he has been In the Presidential
