CASE OF JEFFERSON DAVIS.

The Tribune of the 4th inst, says -
This casetls at last, and properly, brought
to point on which decided action will
be insisted on 1t is ascertained that the
prisoners counsel having determined to
apply once more for writ OF habeas cor-
pus in his behalf, one OF them (Mr Geo.
Shea, of this city,) made, last Wedhes-
day, the application to Judge Under
wood, at Alexandria, Va, and presented
the petition. Judge Underwood had,
on the former application, denied the
motion, on the ground, as we remember,
that Mr.. Davis was held as prisoner of
war. and that the Government had not
yet delivered HIM up to the civil au-
thority Nearly a year has passed since
that decision aud, inasmuch as the
Government maintains the sa ne appar.
ent ndisposition to lake any step toward
bringing the prisoner to trial, or releas-
ing HIM on parole, as it has all his fellow
caplives, we most heartily welcome the
news that the Judge has this time allows

with the trial at this term of the Court,

matter of course, be admitted to bail or

sped since he was captured and, on the
18th of this month, two years will have
passed since he was immure in Fortress

ger detention in close confinement,
while the prosecution refuses hun trial,

GOUD MANNERS.

We have often noticed point in et,.
quetfe which seems expressly adapted to
the protection OF the rights and feeling
of both sexes. We allude to the custom
which requires the gentleman to return
the bow when lady and gentleman,
presumed acquaintan ces, meet IN tho
street. The philosophy of the rule is
this, for there is sound philosophy in
manners; we're the gentleman to bow
first it would be in the power of the la.
dy to ignore the bow, and thus mortlfy
the gentleman who might have only in-
tended a polltsness. The lady bowing
