POTter's Case.

WASHINGTON, February 15.-Gen.
Fi!z John Porter's case is In the
hands of the President, bearing Gen
eral Shermans endorsement of Por-
ter's application for a remission OF
the penalties. General Porter does
not seek nor desire pardon. but a
revision of his case in the presence OF
new evidence. His friends state that
he is willing to submit his case to the
President, General Sherman and the
Secretary OF War, or other high OIL
GERS. Under the act of Congress
possed in 1S68-69. the President
may practically revise the court
martial proceedings by the re-
appointment OF the party affected
by its verdict. A denomination places
/ the matter before the Senate, or the
Executive may, without appoint
mept. remit penalties where injustice
has been done. General Porter seeks
| remission only at this time, and In
sists that the Government cannot
properly refuse to hear the new evl-
dence. The following is an extract
from an opinion of Gen, Mcclellan
