am SIR very Of the b. TANh
When the civil war broke ont Chief Justice Taney,
who had administered the oath of once to Abraham
Lincoln about three months before, gave reirASx-
able opinion In the Merryman habcas corpus case,
which showed plainly that he held fast by the pre-
negatives Of the Judiciary and the civil power even
In the midst of arms. In this opinion, delivered In
Chambers, at Baltimore May 2s 1891, the Chief
Justice used the following language:-
These great and fundamental laws, which Con-
gress itself could not suspend, have been disre-
garded and suspended, like the habeas corpus, by
military order, supported by force OF arms II the
authority which the constitution has cOnfided to
the Judiciary Department may thus be usurped by
the military power at Its discretion the people Of
the United States are no longer living under gov
ernment OF laws but every citizen holds life, lib
erty and property ut the win and pleasure OF the
army ofcer In whose military district he may hap
pen to be found.
The administration, guided by military neces-
sity which knew no law, rode over this opinion In
the Merryman case roughshod. Doubtless 1t could
not have done otherwise, since It was itself In the
very maelstrom Of the revolution, and did not con-
troll events so much as 1t was controlled by them.
The calm, clear utterance ofthe Chief Justice OF the
United States, asserting II were from the closet
the sacrcdness Of the great muniment OF personal
liberty to a major general with nve regiments at
his back sounded strangely In those days. read, asit

old long after the new had como in, and upheld
