FRIDAY, JANL'AKi' 4, 117. The 1'oiot Decided. Tok recent decision of the Supreme Court covers simply one point, viz., that the tiial of a civilian by a military commission in a (State not the theatre of actual hostilities is illegal. It expressly recognizes the validity of such trials in the Mates that were in rebellion. It also recogDlzcs the legality of the suspen sion of the writ of habeas corpus and of wbat were termed "arbitrary arrests." Had it not been for the law of 1803, providing lor the discharge! ol persons held in custody by the military authorities in the loyal States, alter a United States grand jury had been in session and adjourned without finding indict ments against them, SHch persons might have been held prisoners during the pleasure of the militvy authorities, as long as the writ of habeas corpus was suspended. It was simply because of this provision of tbe law that Milligan was entitled to his release. Without it, by the decision of the Court, he could still have been held a prisoner, although lie could not legally have been tried by a military commission bo long as the regular operations of the Courts in Indiana were not obstructed by war. There is, therefore, in this decision, very little to warrant the patriotic rejoicings of some of our old-time "Copperhead" journals. The things that they most complain of, namely, "arbitrary arrests" or, as one of them poetically expiesses it, the "invasion of the dwellings of citizens at midnight," and the " dragging them from their families with out procesB,warrant,or authority," etc. etc. are not touched by this case, or, rather, are impliedly sanctioned bv it. The New Steamship lane on the Pacific The present year is to witness the Ingaugu ratlon of an enterprise which promises to -become a matter of great importance to oar commercila interests on the Pacific we allude to the steamship line between San Francisco, China, and Japan. Ihe first 6hip of the new line, the Colorado, was to have left San Francisco on the 1st Instant, for Hong-Kong. The line is to consist, at pre sent, of three ships the Colorado, the Great Republic, and the Celestial Empire the two latter not yet quite ready, but intended to be among the largest and best wooden ships ever built in the United States. The Government pays to the Pacific Mail Com pany, who own this line, $450,000 per annum tor carrying the malls. Twelve round trips are to be made during the year. It is esti mated that tbe time from Hong-Kong to . London by this route wdl be from three to lour weekj less than by the English lines already In existence. It Is with reference to the early comple tion of the Pacific Railroad that this line becomes of special importance. That event will probably occur sooner than most people expect; and when it does, it must work an almost entire change in the course of the trade of Eastern Asia with Europe and America. Instead of taking the long and tedious voyage by way of the Cape of Good Hop or Cape Horn, passengers and valuable freight will go directly from China to San Francisco, then by rail to the Atlantic sea board, and thence by steamers to Europe. We shall thus become tbe carriers and dis tributors of oneoi the most valuable portions ot tbe woild's commerce. As preparatory to this, the establishment of American steam ship lines on the Tacillc is of the utmost im portance ; and we are glad that the enterprise has thus seasonably been Inaugurated. Its progress will be watched with interest, and its success is a matter of national concern. Senators to be Chosen. 1 ue annual meeting of so many of the State Legislatures derives additional Interest trom the fact that upon several of them will devolve the duty ot choosing United States Senators. In our own State a successor to Mr. Cowan Is to be chosen. The prominent candidates for the office are Thaddeus Stevens, Governor Curtin, and ex-Secretary Cameron. , InNew Yoik a successor to Mr. Harris Is to be chosen. Two;months agoMooked as though Horace Greeley would be almost the unani mous choice for the position. The tide of public favor seems to have changed, however, Bince then, and it is now quite difficult to say who of the numeious aspirants does stand the best chance of success. Senator Harris himself has a good deal of s'rength. Roscoe Conkling is also a very prominent candidate. Governor Teuton's name has been mentioned In connection with the office. From present appearances the choice lies between Harris and Conkling. In New Jersey, the vacancy occasioned by the death of Senator Wright Is to be filled. Senator Frellnghuysen, whobolds temporarily under an appointment from the Governor, seems to have the inside track ; and as he is by far the ablest man named In connection with the office, we hope he may get It Maryland also elects a Senator to succeed Mr. CreswelL Governor Swarm's treachery to the Union party would naturally be re warded by this position were it not for his locality, which, by a local law, renders him Ineligible. Some Democrat is sure of the nositlon. d'date for re-election, and the race seems to lie between Governor Morton and Repre sentative Julian. Mr. Colfax, we believe, has retused to have his name used as a Candida1, Missouri elects a successor to the eloquent and intrepid B. Gratz Drown, who refuses a re election. Governor Fletcher, Charles D. Drake, and Representative Blow are the pro minent candidates, with the chances In favor of Drake. Two Senators are to be elected from Kan sas, one to fill the vactney occasioned by the death of the late Senator James U. Lane, and the oshcr to succeed Senator Pomeroy, whose term expires on the 8d of March next. Mr. Tomcroy will probably be chosen as his own successor, although he has a strong competitor in the person of ex-Governor Jhomas Carney. There are several com petitors for Lane's vacancy, among them Senator Ross, who holds by appointment ol the Governor, Colonel William A. Phillips, Judpe Thacher, and Representative Clarke. Kansas politics are of the uncertain order, and no reasonable prediction' can be made as to who will be the successful man. Jn Nevada, If the telegrams are worth anj -thing, Senator Nye has a "sure thing" in regai d to his re-election . We hope he may not be disappointed. In Illinois Senator Trumbull is a candidate for re-election, and If great ability and tried faithfulness are worth anything, he ought to get the seat. In Ohio a successor is to be chosen to Senator Sherman, but be seems to have the race pretty much to himself. The same re mark may be made in regard to Senator Howe, of Wisconsin. There are some other States to choose Senators during the year, but their Legisla tures are cot in session, Tbaddens Stetens Great Spepcli. Hon. Tuaddetjs Stevens made a great speech In the House ot Representatives yes terday, on his bill for the reconstruction of tbe late Rebel States. It was a condensed and powerful argument, demonstrating the lull and exclusive right ot Congress, as the legislative branch of the Government, to prescribe the terms and manner of recon struction. It was also a noble and eloquent appeal in favor of reconstructing the late Rebel States upon the basis of equal and im partial rights for all before the law. Penn sylvania may well be proud of that grand old veteran, who, with all the fire and vigor of youth, tempered by the wisdom and experi ence ot age, is the nation's great leader in the path of tme Republican progress I Mr. Douglass' Address. Frederick Douglass spoke to an immense audience last evening in National Hall. His address, which was nearly two hours in length, held his vast auditory in the most close and enthusiastic attention to its close, nis argument was clear and logical, his dic tion condensed and powerful, his delivery impassioned and moving. Mr. Douglass justly ranks among the first orators of this country, and his effort last evening did full justice to his reputation. A full phonographic report of his address will be louid in another part of this paper. literal.
