Special Despatch 10 The EDeni,ig telegraph.
WAsmNGToN July 14.-The Government has
taken no active means to prevent the landing
of the French cable off the coast of Massachu-
sets, nor is it likely that any will be taken.
There was a story in circulation here to the
effect that revenue cutter had been ordered to
proceed to Massachusetts, and resist any attempt
to land the cable. This, however, is without
foundation. 1t is probable that next winter
Congress will take some action on'the subject.

The YerRer-Crnne Homicide Case-A Writ of
Hnbeas Corpus Applied For.
Despatch to The EUenfng Telegraph
WASHINGTON, July 14.-Chief Justice Chase
took his seat in the Chamber at precisely IL
o'clock, to hear the application of Ycrger for a
habeas corpus. Mr.. Phillips, of Mobile, pro-
ceeded to read the application, as we'll as a copy
of the charges upon which military commits
sion is now trying Yerger in Vicksburg, Miss.
Mr. Phillips cited the law giving power to the
Justices of the Supreme Court to hear applica-
tions Rand grant writs of habeas corpus; the
only limitation on such power being that the
party applying must have been arrested under
authority or color of authority of the United
States Mr. Phillips argued that any Supreme
Judge could eXeacise this power, without re-
gard to particular districts, there being no re-
striction in the statute limiting the power con-
ferred. Any Judge of the Supreme Court could
act in the case.
In the case of Merriman the application was
made to Chief Justice Taney, who decided not
to hear the case in Washington, but to hear it
in Baltimore, in order not to take General Cad
wallader, who held the prisoner away from his
military command. Judge Taney seems to have
not doubted his jurisdiction. Mr.. Phillips also
cited case before Judge Wayne, who exercised
Jurisdiction.
The merits of the case were then elaborately
argued-counsel contending that not only the
interests of the citizen, but also of the Consti-
tuition itself, were involved, the strength of our
Constitution and the rights of British subjects
under the Magma Charta were stated at length,
the absolute right of trial by jury and the
writ of habeas corpus were embraced in all the
State Constitutions. The existence of these
rights no one questioned, and the petitioner only
claimed their benefit. Mr.. Phillips proceeded
to inquire into powers of Congress in passing
the reconstruction acts; he quoted Cranch, SOL,
to show that Congress is limited in its power,
even in legislating for the District of Columbia.
He next considered powers of Congress in legis-
lating for the several Territories, and then
passed on to discussion of the legislative power
| of Congress over the Southern States, citing a
| large number of authorities.
The courtroom is crowded with an attentive
auditory Acknowledgement Hoar is present. and
will follow Mr.. Phillips in opposition to the ap-
plication of Yerger. Mr.. Carlile will close the
| discussion.
