What Tennessee Lawyers Think Of Judges
Trigg and Rmm0ns-The Fourteenth
Amendmsnt.
MEMFHIs, December 81, 1870.

MEMPHIs, December 81, 1870
Hon. II. II, E,imeus and Hon. G. r, Trigg,
Judges of ths Circuit Gnd District Courts Of
the Uritsd States:
AS the members Of tho bar of Memphis, In at
tendance upon your court now in session, we
deem the occasion not inoppo,tune for the ex-
preston of some considerations suggested by the
situation in which the people of West Tennessee
are pleaed. We desire that they may have
| their confidence in the judicial tribunals more
and more strengthened and renewed. We are
! persuaded that the matured opinions of those
whom they have long known as practitioners In
the courts might, for that reason, if for other.
naturally be expected to exert an influence, if
made generally known throughout the country.
| Partly with this view, and prrtly for the pur-
| pose OF offering you some evidence of our re-
spect, we venture to make this communication,
and to ask that if, in your judgment, it would
| be likely to accomplish any useful purpose You
will allow it TO be published.
In the exercise of your judicial discretion,
you nave oeclded TO try, upon the call of your
dockets, a sufficient number of causes to raise
the various points of law involved in the con-
struction of the third section of the Fourteenth
Amendment oftle Federal Constitution, and 10
| postpone the other suits and prosecution
brought under said section, until the Judgment
of the supreme Court of the United States can
| be had upon the controverted questions The
adoption of this course will not only simplify
the proceeding and diminish the expense to both
parties, but it viii also tend to quiet the appre-
tensions of the people and to increase their
trust IN the faithful and just administration of
the law. Intimately acquainted, as most OF
US are, with the temper and feelings of the
people of West Tennessee, we believe
that in the whole number of cases where
persons may be supposed to hold office in viola
ton of the Fourteenth Amendment, there is
not one where either the officer OF the people
who elected him had any intention to disobey
the law, or to defy the authority of the Govern
ment.l In many instances, especially where the
ofhcea are of inferior grade, the incnmbents were
not aware, until the institution of those proceed
iuSs, that there was any Federal law upon the
subject Of State officers. In some cases, it II

GENTLEMEN-Yo Your letter of the 31st of De-
cember is received The expressions of regret
and approval of our course as judges afford us
great pleasure
Our effort has been to administer the law in
the most efficient and speedy mode, and by i'm
partially protecting the rights of citizens, se-
cure for our Court and Government that conf
dence and respect which are the best guarantee
of domestic peace and political tranquility.
What is personal to US Is of small consequences
when contrasted with the more important por-
ton of your letter in reference to the admins
ton of Federal law in Tennessee. That You
faithfully state theipresent condition of opinion,
we fully believe. The testimony of gentlemen
so we'll qualified to judge, who have been lead
ers in forming, that opinion, and where mere de-
elaration that it exists, strongly tends to create
and increase it, cannot but be received with the
greatest confidence
We cheerfully consent TO the publication of
your letter, the object OF which is to declare and
promote reverence for the law, cheerful CO.
operation in its enforcement, and return of
that fraternal feeling which, from causes now re-
GREETED by all, 3 temporarily suspended.
Yours, most respectfully,
