term OF the Supreme Court OF the United
States commences on the 18th OF October,
On the second day, by special assignment,
there will be taken up for hearing The cele-
brated Virginia case, Involving the right of
colOred men to be, tried by iuries oftheir
own color; AS is known, this case pre-
sents most important features, involving
the constitutionality OF the reconstruction
legislation Of Congress. Mr.. Justice Strong
has set for hearing on the same day before
the full bench the case Of the Ohio election
Judge. involving the eonstitutionalty OF the
election laws Of Congress. Chief-Justice
Waite has also set the 14th day OF October
for the hearing OF: the habeaS corpus cases
OF the Maryland election Judges There is
now the prospect that. before the ensuing
term Of the court has terminated there will
be an authoritative decision as to the va
liditp of most il not all OF the reconstruction
legislation which sits so heavily on large
portion OF the country, and which it is no
longer concealed works only for the benefit
of party, and not for the whole people. 1t
has been an open secret that the Supreme
Court has avoided, as far as was possible,
rendering opinions Oh the political Iegisla-
ton Of Congress, but the members Of that
tribunal have at last doubtless realized that
the point must be met, sooner or later. It
is better that the question should be dis
posed ofa this time, and in advance OF the
next presidential election, as it will remove
the, source Of unbounded dlssension and
bitterness. The Virgins case, by reason of
the attitude OF Judge RiVes of the United
States District Court, embraces points OF
vast magnitude; including the right of the
Federal judiciary not only to impiisen State
Judges for carrying opt State laws, but also
the Governors of, the, States for executing
the laws, and members of the Legislature
for voting for those laws, $50 -, ..
