seVsrel parties were srraigned on Writs
of quo i0aTT0RtO, under the law prohibit
ing ali persons in Tennessee, who held
civil Office under and took the oath to sup
port the Confederate States from holding
office. BY mutual agreement, it ives de-
cided that these causes should be appealed
70 the Supreme Court of the United states
IS test cases for a goodly number Of Of
hcials elected last fell, who were charged
with having the same disabilities. This
procedure was exceedingly wise, and at
the time economical for the government,
which would have been put TO great ex-
pense in the trial of all the parties ar
raigned, by prolOnging the term of the
court, and TO the parties, who would have
been compelled TO incur the expense Of
coming 10 Nashville and going To Knox
vile and Memphis, besides paying an
immense amount Of fees to attorneys.
The arrangement entered into was, there
fore, as equitable to the citizens as it vas
to the government.
