LOYAL INDEHRsTY-AN IMPORT
ANT OMISSION.

To the editors of the Union and Dispatch:
greatly fear there is what might be
called almost fatal omission in the law
recently passed providing for the losses OF
the LoIL of the war passing in Tennessee
not vet ended. Would it not have been
better to have delayed these inquiries until
the close of the INVASION, as at the end it
would cave second inquiry of like kind
But that is not what most concerns me.
do not learn that there is any provision in
the law calling upon the Commissioners,
when the loi applicant is under examine
ton, to ascertain what amount by way OF
Stealdqe and TObbdge had by accident or
otherwise came to pay his losses. This,
under the law of set-of, would have made
a great item and certainly nothing could
be more just. | am sure it was an acct
dental omission in the honest Legislator
who drew up the bill.
One other thing, about as important,
would have been TO have made the appli-
cant paid fees to the Commissioners, Just
as the soldier with one leg left has to pay
the scrivener for fixing up his pension pa
pers. offer this, as in my opinion, econo-
my lies at the bottom of it, and a small
supplement of about three short sections
will set all right.
am perfectly aware that, with the LoIL,
stedIdge, robbage, barn-bmndge was an i'm
portant and indeed the only part nine
tenths of the Toll took in the great struggle
Still deny that they are entitled to double
pay for it, az an actor in this nei0 calling to
be his own judge, measure his own claims,
get them, and then allow no set-off, is ont
of all rule, and a sin too. CROCKETT.

LATEST KILOGRAMS.
MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES
IMPEACHMENT.
Replication by the House Of
Representatives.
The Trial Postponed to 3Oth
March,

WASHINGTON, March 24.-At one
o'clock the Chief Justice took his seat.
The Secretary read the announcement of
the adoption of the replication by the
House. Mr.. Boutwell,, of the managers,
then said:
Mr.. PRESIDENT: l am charged by the
managers with the duty of presenting the
replication offered by the House of Repre-
sentatives of the United States TO the
answer Of Andrew johnson, President of
the United States, TO the articles of i'm
parchment exhibited against him by the
House of Representatives. The House
of Representatives OF the United States
have considered the several answers of
Andrew johnson, President of the United
States, to the several articles OF impeach-
meat made against him by them, and ex-
hibited in the name of themselves and of
all the people of the United States,
and reserviug to themselves an al, antage
of exception TO the insufhciency Of this
answer to each and all of the several ar
ticles of impeachment against Andrew
johnson, President of the United States,
do deny each and every averement in ssid
several answers, or either OF them, which
denies or traverses the acts, intents, crimes
or misdemeanors charged against said
Andrew Johnion, in said articles of i'm
parchment or either of them, and for rep
LEGATION to the said answer, do say that the
said Andrew johnson, President of the
United States, is guilty of the high crimes
and misdemeanors in the said articles, and
that the said House of Representatives are
ready to prove the same.
At Ills the Senate retired TO consult on
Mr.. Johnson's motion to grant the Presi-
dent ten more days TO prepare for trial,
and at 1925 reappeared, and order having
been restored, the Chief Justice said am
directed to inform the counsel that the
Senate have agreed to an order in response
to their application, which will now be
read: 1t is ordered that the Senate will
commence the trial of the President upon
articles of impeachment exhibited against
him, on Monday, the Both day of March,
and proceed therein with all dispatch I'M
der the rules of the Senate setting upon
the trial of an impeachment. After mo-
mentary pause the Chief Justice asked, have
the counsel for the respondent anything to
propose?
The counsel bowed in acquiescence to the
decision.
Mr.. Butler, one of the managers, said
'If the Chair will allow me, / will give
notice to the witnesses TO appear here on
Monday, the Both inst, at half-past twelve
o'clock.
On motion of Senator Wilson, the court
then adjourned until the date named al
half-past twelve o'clock and the Chiei
Justice vacated the chair, which was i'm
mediately resumed by President pro tenn
Wade, who called the Senate to Mr.. Grimes
move TO go into executive session, which
after a vain attempt by Mr.. Anthony tc
call up the report of the Committe on
Rules, prevailed, and the Senate went
into executive session.

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE AND THE
DEWOCRATTC PARTY

The Cincinnati Gazette attributes suf>
feient Importance to the gossip Of the
Washington city quid nunes about Chief
Justice Chase and the Democratic nomi-
nation for the Presidency, to make it the
subject Of a double loaded editorial
While holding the thing as wholly inn
probable, it is discussed as possible. The
Gazette may dismiss lite fears on that
score. Judge Chase is expected to
preside over the Court Of Impeachment
impartially, and as a citizen, he may
make no concealment of his opinions con'
demning the folly and wickedness Of the
arrant scoundrels in his party who seek
to reyolutionize the government in the
overthrow of the Executive and the Ju-
dicial branches; but for doing his
simple official duty in the one case, and
candidly reprobating political villainy in
the other, the Democrats party is not
going to tender him its support as a
Presidential candidate, nor would he ac-
cept it, if he did. Ambitious of the
Presidency he undoubtedly is, but it is
not credible that he would exchange the
Chief Justiceship for it on such terms Of
ignoble chafering These confused and
corrupt times beget strange things, bu
they will hardly place the chief architec
and builder Of the Radical party at the
head of its consistent and infexible op,

WASHINGTON, March 24.-In the Su-
preme Court Judge Clifford delivered an
important decision, affirming the decision
of the Supreme Court of Connecticut in
the case of Society for Savagers, APPELLANTS
vs.. g. w. Coats, State Treasurer. The
question was whether deposits invested in
government securities were liable to State
tax, which was held that the tax upon the
deposit by the Savings Bank is not a tax
on securities on which they are invested.
A report is in circulation here to-day
that the Committee on Elections have voted
to retain Gen. Morgan, of the 18th Ohio
district, in his seat, which was done by a
strict party vote, six Republicans, Shella-
barger being absent, against two Demo-
crats-a strict party vote-and il was re-
solved to report in favor of giving seat to
C. Delano, the contestant. They say that
he was elected by eighty-seven majority.
1t is understood that two treaties with
Italy have recently been sent to the Senate.

THE RANRPUPT ACT.

Contrariety of opinion has prevailed in
regard to the construction of the thirty
third section of the bankrupt law of
March ID, 1867, the substance of which
is as follows
The thirty-third section provides that
4" in all proceedings in bankruptcy COM
menced after one year from the time this
act shall 60 into operation, no discharge
shall be granted to a debtor whose assets
do not pay City per centum of the claims
against his estate, etc. f; and the fftieth
section, THAT this act shall commence
and take effect az 20 the appointment Of the
officers created hereby, and the promulga-
ton of rules and general orders, from and
after the date Of its approval; provided
that no petition or other proceeding under
this act shall be filed" etc, before the
first day Of June" 1867.
The question as 10 the period Of time
when the fifty per cent requirement. be-
comes obligatory upon applicants for
the benefit of the law, is the chief one
involved in the discussion. A communi-
cation to the Weekly Bankrupt Register,
Of New York, over the signature of *
the initial letter of the name Of Mr.
Ketchum, the Commissioner for the
Southern District of New York-answers
and shows conelusively, that the true in
tent Of the act is to permit the filing Of
petitions without the fifty per cent limi,
tation for one year from the first Of June,
lS67--the date at which the law went
into operation.
This construction is endorsed by the
Hon. Mr. Jenckes,::of Rhode Island, the
author Of the law, and determines the
question. Indeed, il is the only legiti-
mate construction that can be placed on
the language Of the act The following
is Mr.. Jenckes' note to Mr. ketchum on
the subject.
WASHINGTON, d. c., March Sd, 1865
--, Eso-DEAR SIR: Your opinion
above, concerning the time when the fifty
per cent. clause Of the bankrupt act takes
effect, is in accordance with that Of every
member Of the committees Of both Houses
having charge Of the subject Of amendments

npon the question, whether or not it is in
the power Of the legislative branch to wrest
a cause from the court after jurisdiction
has been acquired. A portion Of the court
holding that whilst the legislative cannot
take away right already acquired under
an existing law, il has the power to change
the remedy by which the right is to be
maintained or adiudicated that the pend
ing bill, if it shall become a law, will abol-
ish the remedy by which McCardle seeks
to obtain judgment, and therefore the court
could not enter decree upon the case as
now presented upon the pleadings. Other
Judges hold that this remedy is part OF
the right that has accrued by existing laws,
and cannot, by act of Congress, be taken
from the party in court The case comes
up in open court tomorrow, when 1t Is ex-
pected that an announcement of the result
above set forth will be made"
A dispatch of the ed to the Louisville
Courier, says various comments have been
made about the noE-action of the Judges
Of the Supreme Court, some persons charg-
ing them with moral cowardiee, but there
are others who sustain them.

BLACK.

The Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Courier refers in his dispatch
of the 23d inst to the withdrawal OF
Judge Black from the Presidents coun-
sci as follows:
Groesbeck, of Cincinnati, appeared as
one of the counsel for the President. The
non-appearance of Judge Jerry Black IN
that capacity gives rise to much specula.
ton, and there are many rumors ahoat
about it, Among them are that he and
the President had quarreled about his
COUNSEL that they disagreed as to the line
Of defense that he had denounced the
President as a coward, and Other such i'm
probable stories. There is authority to say
that none of these reports are founded in
truth. For the present at least Judge
Black has declined to appear There are
reasons which il would be improper to give
at this time, but it may be said that Sc
ward, always plotter and trickster, is in
directly the cause Of the President losing
his most trusty counselor.

GEN. THOMAS Kg-KLUx SCARE.

The following, furnished by the Wash
ington correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette, is the finale to the ridiculous
scare in regard to the Ku-Klux in Ten
nessee, which Gen Thomas attempted to
get up in the interest of the Radicals. 1t
is a "most lame and impotent conclu-
sion" and shows clearly that Gen.
Thomas might have been engaged in
something more creditable to himself at
least The GdzettSs correspondent says
"Advices received at the War Depart
ment this week from Tennessee lead to the
belief in military circles that there will
not, for the present at least, be any seri-
GUS trouble in that State. The publication
of Gen. Thomas report, of ten days ago,
warned the malcontents that they were
watched, and would be sharply dealt with
If occasion offered, and it is thought they
are wise enough, ir spite Of their rebellious
proclivities, TO heed this warning. 1t
seems probable, therefore, that Governor
Brownlow will not need to call on the
military for aid. IL is known however,
that Gen. Thomas has not omitted any
necessary measures of precaution, and he
can respond at once il help is required"

THE McCARDLE CASE-A DECISION
POSTPONED.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial writes under
date of the 22d inst as follows:
AT consultation Of the Judges Of the
Supreme Court, yesterday, the McCardle
case came up in regular order for deiermi-
nation A proposition was made TO post.
pone further action upon the case until
after the legislation now pending before
Congress, TO regulate appeals in such cases,
shall have been concluded. This was Oh.
iecled 70 by twoof the Judges, on the ground
that the court il not charged with official
knowledge of the mere pending OF such
legislation, and that the court could take
no judicial notice Of legislative action I'M
oil Congress has finally passed bin aud
the same has become a Law in due form.
A vote was taken upon the proposition 20
postpone, and Elk Judges voted for post
ponement aud two against il, SO the case
goes over until after the Presidents pros
pective veto shall have been acted upon in
Congress.
"It appears that the court is divided
