The Cone -Case—lmportant Decision—
ophe Prisoner.
. 'Wednesday morning, in the Su
prenie Court, before Justice Thompson,
the case of William B. N. Cozens, heard
partially on Saturday, was resumed.
Mr; Gilpin, on behalf of the Sheriff,
presented the following additional re
turn to the writ of attachment:
"And now, July 5 1865, for a further
,and full return, the Sheriff' says that he
has and now produces the bodies of
David P. Weaver Henry C. Perry, and
Joseph A. Kauffman, the remaining
three' of the defendants, as within com
manded." H. C. HOWELL, Sheriff.
Mr. Brewster then filed the following
exceptions to the return to the writ of
habeas corpus:
"'And now, July 5, 1865, the relator
files the following exceptions to the
original return, and additional to the
writ of habeas corpus in this case.
L Because the said returns do not
show to the Court, as by said writ the
respondents were commanded, the cause
for or upon which the relator has been
arrested and is retained.
2. Because the said returns do not
traverse or attempt to traverse any of
the facts alleged in the petition on which
this writ was issued, and on those facts
the President has no authority in law
to order the arrest of the relator.
3. Because the act of Congress of
March 3, 1863, under which said return
is made, has expired by its own limita
tion—the rebellion, during which said
act was to take effect, being at an end.
4. Because the acts of Congress which
are in support of said return are in con
flict with the Constitution of the United
States, and are void.
5. Because said returns show no cause
for arrest or detention of the relator.
And the relator, reserving all right to
insist upon his aforesaid exceptions,
traverses the allegation in said return
that he has been arrested, and is held
under the authority of the President of
the United States, and he denies the
truth of said averment, and respectfully
prays that the respondents be required
to make due proof thereof.
And the relator prays that he may be
discharged from his unlawful arrest and
confinement, because there is no war
rant set forth in or annexed to the
return.
Mr. Dougherty opened the argument
on the part of Mr. Cozens, contending
that the rebellion was at an end, and
therefore the suspension of the writ
ceased. He followed the points laid
down in the exceptions and at some
length discusssed the necessity for the
cause being specified in the warrant.
Mr. Knox replied on behalf of the
Government, and repeated in part his
argument of Saturday. In regard to
the point made by the other side that
the rebellion was at an end, he urged
that the Court should receive informa
tion of this fact from the President's
proclamation. He denied that the re
bellion could be considered at an end
while we retained 200,000 or 300,000 men
in the field, and wjiile a portion of our
own army was still marching South.—
There was still much to do in reorganiz
ing the State governments for the South
before the rebellion could be considered
at au end.
Mr. Brewster closed the argument.—
In regard to the reliance of the other
side on the act of 1862, declaring con
tractors a part of the land and naval
force, he cited the supplement to that
act, passed January 4th, 1864, declaring
that all persons arrested under the act
of 1862, should be entitled to enter bail
to answer before any court martial ap
pointed to try them, and this bail is to
be entered before the judge of the , Dis
trict Court where the offence was com
mitted. The writ of habeas corpus in
this case requires the parties not only to
produce the body but also to show the
causes of detention. The cause is not
assigned here. Mr. Brewster referred
to the act of March, 1863, and contended
that it did not authorize a general sus
pension of the writ, but merely gave
power to the President to suspend the
privilege of the writ in the case that
might be under consideration. In con
clusion Mr. Brewster contended that the
rebellion was at an end and therefore
the power to sus Pend the writ had ceased.
He quoted the President's proclamation
of 9th of May, 186.5.
At the conclusion of the argument,
Justice Thompson disposed of this very
important case. Calling Col. Frink be
fore him, he addressed him as follows :
An attachment issued against you for a
refusal to make return to a writ of
habeas corpus issued by this court. We
are now to pass upon your answer to
the attachment. 1 wish to say here,
that it is no offence to the person arrest
ed that is charged iu your case. It is
only with an eye to the preservation of
the judicial authority that I have aught
to say in regard to your conduct. The
law requires all parties havin ,, charge
of persons not under sentence to bring
forward the body when so required to
do by writ of habeas corpus. The act
of Congress cited in your ease requires
you to make a return. But you at first,
and until the attachment issued, refused
obedience to the national and state au
thorities. When the writ of attachment
issued you refused to obey, and ordered
out your soldiers to resist. The state
and national authorities were both dis
regarded by you, and the state authority
defied. Persistence in this would have
led to a conflict—a civil war in our
midst. It might have inaugurated a
rebellion similar to the one now, hap
pily, overcome, a rebellion that I un
derstand you took a distinguished part
in assisting to overthrow. The writ of
habeas corpus is the very angel of our
safety. ,No man can now be carried off
by any party to linger out his life wait
ing for justice. The party holding a
citizen must be ready to show his au
thority, and to attempt to avert, with
out authority is a high offence, whether
by the President of the United States
or the Corporal of the guard.
Attacks upon the privileges of this
writ are more dangerous than attacks
upon life itself. You have made answer
to the writ and properly submitted
yourself to the attachment. You deny
all design to commit a contempt. You
felt it your duty to consult your super
ior officer. I don't think you were
bound to do that. A short answer would
have sufficed. I can readily under
stand why a soldier, in the habit of
obeying orders, should make this mis
take. Your excuse is that the Sheriff's
officer told you that they intended to
put you in prison. This was wrong.
There could have been an arrangement
between you, by which you could have
visited your superior officer, and still
obey the summons. I admit that this
was a threat calculated to provoke any
ordinary man to resistance. There is
some apology for your action, but it is
not to be excused. You have made a
return, and I am disposed to mark my
disapprobation of your conduct by a
nominal fine. I approve of many things
you have done. You have produced
Mr. Cozens in Court, in order that we
may see that he has not been carried
away.
The Judge then imposed a fine of $lO
and the costs of the attachment.
Justice Thompson next disposed of
the case upon the return to the writ.
He said: There is much outside of this
case, but we are to judge of the return
only. The relator, from all that ap
pears, is a private citizen, and was ar
rested and is said to be held under the
authority of the President of the - United
States. Is this true ? The return is in
accordance with the act of Congress of
March 3d, 1863. That section declares
that—
" During the present rebellion, the
President of the United States, when
ever in his judgment the public safety
may require it, is authorized to suspend
the wzit of habeas corpus in any case
tluvulkout the United States, or any
part thereof. And whenever and where
eves the said privilege shall be suspend
ed as aforesaid, no military or other offi
cer shall be compelled, in answer to any
writ of habeas corpus, to return the
body of any prisoner or prisoners de
tained by him by authority of the Pre
sident ; but upon the certificate, under
oath, of the officer having charge of any
one so detained, that such person is de
tained by him as a prisoner under au
thority of the President, further pro
ceedings under the writ of habeas cor
pus shall‘be suspended by the Judge of
the Court having issued the said writ,
so long as said suspension by the Presi
dent shall remain in force, and said re
bellion continue."
On this return there is an important
question, whether on the 29th of June
last the rebellion continued or not. This
is the question I am about to determine
in this case. It is a fact to be judicially
determined like any other fact. It is
not left to the President alone. His
power of suspending the privilege of the
Nyritdepended upon the fact of the re
lieLliOn and its continuance, and it ceased
at the end of the rebellion, and that is as
much within the cognizance of the
Judge as any other fact. As the right is
4t, Constituthxtull--right of-Amery - 44*am
we are to observe a strict constructidn
of every act Which threatens to deprive
him of it._ The werds_in =this act are
"during the present rebellion." When
Congress passed, the_act they considered
the probable duratiolf of the power, and
they said it shall be exercised only
"during the present rebellion."
The courts are bound to give the
citizen his privileges under the writ,
and the fact whether he is entitled to
the privilege is to be ascertained as any
other fact, by evidence calculated to
prove such fact. There is abundant
evidence that the rebellion is at an end.
No longer than yesterday we were
called upon to celebrate the 4th of July,
not only as the anniversary of our first
independence, but also our second in
dependence, based upon the idea that
the rebellion was at an end. The Gov
ernor in his proclamation so recognized
it. That the rebellion no longer exists
the current history of the times show.
The rebel armies are entirely destroyed
or captured; our own armies are being
mustered out and the returning soldiers
crowd our streets. There is no single
body of armed men under the Confed
erate title in the field. Governors have
been appointed for all the Southern
States with the exception of one, and
trade regulations have been issued for the
regulation of domestic commerce in the
South. Every navy yard, fort and arse
nal is under the command of the United.
States. The war has ceased everywhere
in this land, and the time is coming
when civil rights are to be enjoyed freely
everywhere. I cannot doubt this fact.
The war being at an end, the authority
of the President is notsufficient to justify
the arrest of a citizen. The Constitu
tion declares that no warrant shall issue
for the arrest of a citizen without pro
bable cause, supportedby oath or affirma
tion. There being no oath here, and
there being no cause charged, the prison
er is entitled to:his discharge. This does
not in any way conflict with the mili
tary authority. The Constitution de
clares that the military shalldn allcases
and at all times be in strict subordina
tion to the civil power. It will be grat
ifying to the soldiers themselves to find
it return to the normal condition of the
country.
The Judge said he was not called
upon to decide whether Congress had
placed contractors in the land or naval
forces, nor whether the prisoner had
been tried by Court Martial, as it did
not become necessary. " I hope now,"
he said, "at the end of this long and
troublesome period, that the President
will do speedily, what I think he ought
to do,
refuse his sanction to all trials by
court martial of all offenses that are not
properly military, and let the citizens
be given to the tribunals they are fa
miliar with, there to answer and be
punished."
Mr. Cozens was then discharged.
The Fourth at Gettysburg
At an early hour preparations were
made for the ceremonies in honor of the
day. The military formed on Carlisle
street, the civic bodies assembled in
York street, and the citizens in Cham
bersburg street. The line of procession
was formed in accordance with the pro
gramme, and moved a little after ten
o'clock up Baltimore street to the cem
etery grounds. The display was very
creditable and very imposing, especially
in its military features. Theprocession,
under the direction of General Geary,
Chief Marshal, arrived - at the cemetery
grounds at eleven o'clock.
The Soldier's National Cemetery is
just outside the borough of Gettysburg.
It fronts on the Baltimore turnpike and
extends to the Taneytown road. It
embraces seventeen acres of land, on
the highest point of Cemetery Hill, and
overlooks the whole battle-field. It
formed the apez of our triangular line
of battle, and was the key to our line of
defences. During the second and third
days of the battle our artillery was
heavily massed at this point, and pour
ed incessantly its death dealing missiles
into the Rebel ranks in every direction
of their advance. The monument, the
laying of the corner stone of which was
the special object of the day's observ
ances, will occupy a central and com
manding position. Around it are ar
ranged, in semicircular groups of sec
tions, the burial lots, which slope off
gradually from thecentre. The head
stones are of granite, disposed in sym
metrical order, and intended to register
carefully the number, name, company
and regiment of about 2,900 occupants
of that truly sacred soil. The lots are
apportioned to the different States ac
cording to the number of their martyred
representatives.
The arrival of Gen. Meade was an
nounced by the thunders of a battery
upon a neighboring hiil, where two
years ago the fiercest encounter of the
conflict took place, and by the enthusi
astic cheers of the multitude assembled
within the grounds. He looked exceed
ingly well, and wore his honors with
becoming modesty. Among the distin
guished military heroes that accom
panied him to the platform, were Maj.
liens. Howard, Doubleday, Sykes, Mott
and Crawford. The exercises of the oc
casion were opened with appropriate
music. General Geary then introduced
to the audience the Rev. Stephen H.
Tyng, D. D., of New York, who, after
some preliminary remarks and appro
priate selections from Scripture, offered
up prayer. French's patriotic hymn
was then sung by the Baltimore - Union
Musical Association, led by Professor
Root, and was most admirably rendered.
LETTER FROM THE I'HESI DENT
Hon. D. S. Gooding, United States
Mashal for the Districtof Columbia, was
here introduced to the audience by Mr.
Wills, who announced that he had been
deputed by President Johnson to read
to them a letter expressing his regret at
not being able to join with them in the
ceremonies of the day, which he read in
a loud and clear voice, as follows:
EXECUTIVE MANSION l r
WASHINGTON, D. C., July Bd.
fr.Dueicl Wills, Chairman, &c., Gettysburg, Pa.
DEAR SIR: I had promised myself
the pleasure of participating in person
in the proceedings at .Gettysburg to
morrow.
That pleasure, owing to my indispo-
sition, I am reluctantly compelled to
forego.
I should have been pleased, standing
on that time-consecrated spot, to share
with you your joy at the return of peace;
to greet with you the surviving heroes
of the war, who come back with light
hearts, though heavy loaded with hon
ors ; and with you to drop grateful tears
to the memory of those that will never
return.
Unable to do so in person, I can only
send you my greetings and assure you
of my full sympathy with the purposes
and spirit of your exercises to-morrow.
Of all the anniversaries of the Declara
tion of Independence none has been
more important and significant than
that upon which you assemble.
Four years of struggle for our nation's
life have been crowned with success,
armed treason is swept from the land,
our ports are reopened, our relations
with other nations are of the most satis
factory character, our internal com
merce is free, our soldiers and sailors
resume the peaceful pursuits of civil
life, and the only barrier to our national
progress—human slavery—is forever at
an end.
Let us trust that each returning
Fourth of July shall find our nation
stronger in numbers, stronger in wealth,
stronger in the harmony of its citizens,
stronger in its devotion to nationality
and freedom. As I have often said, I
believe that God sent this people on a
mission among the nations of the earth,
and that when He founded our nation
He founded it in perpetuity. That
faith sustained me through the struggle
that is past. It sustains me now that
new duties are devolved upon me and
new dangers threaten us. I believe that
whatever the means He uses, the AI- -
mighty is determined to preserve us as
a free people. And since I have seen
the love of our fellow-citizens bear their
country, and the sacrifice they have
made for it, my abiding faith has be
come stronger than ever that a " Gov
ernment of the people" is the strongest
as well as the best of Governments.
In your joy to-morrow, I trust you
will not forget the thousands of whites as
well as blacks whom the warhas eman
cipated, who will hail this Fourth of
July with a delight which no previous
anniversary of the Declaration of Inde
pendence ever gave them. Controlled
so long by ambitious, selfish leaders,
who used them for their own unworthy
ends, they are now free to serve and
cherish the Goverment against whose
life they in their blindness struck. I
am greatly mistaken if, in the States
lately in rebellion, we do not hencefor
ward have such an exhibition of loyalty
and patriotism asWas never seen or felt
there before. .
Where you have consecrated a Nation
al Cemetery you are to lay the corner
stone °fa National Monument, which
in all hurt= probability will rare to
the full height and proportion you de
IMIMMI===
Noble as the monument of stone may
'be, it will he but a faint symbol of the
grand, monument which, if we do, our
duty, we' shall raise among the nations
of the earth upon the foundation laid
nine and eighty years ago in Philadel
phia. Time shall wear away mid crum
ble the monument, but that, based as it
is, upon the consent, virtue, patriotism
and intelligence of the people, each year
shall make firmer and more imposing.
Your friend and fellow-citizen,
ANDREW JOHNSON.
After the singing by the Musical As
sociation of another ode, written by
General .W. H. Hayward, of Baltimore,
the corner-stone of the monument was
laid by the Grand Master of the Grand
Lodge of Masons of Pennsylvania,
Lucius H. Scott, in due and ancient
form, and in accordance with the i sages
and ceremonials of the Order. A large
tin box filled with memorials of the
war, the list of which is too lengthy for
insertion here, was then deposited in its
permanent receptacle, after whieh Gen
eral Howard, the orator of the day, pro
ceeded with his address.
Destitution—Thirty-Five Thousand Geor
gians Dependent on Government for
Support.
From a recent report made by order of
the military authorities, it has been as
certained that there are 35,000 men,
women, and children in the counties of
Georgia immediately surrounding At
lanta, who are dependent upon the
United States Government for support
and preservation from death by hunger.
In the counties of North Georgia there
must be at least as many more, for at
every post and headquarters of United
States forces hundreds of applicants
apply daily for relief. To such an extent
does this state of affairs prevail that it
seriously incommodes the troops, and
though every eflbrt has been made to
relieve the sufferings of the people, yet
vast destitution prevails among them
An order has recently been issued by
General Thomas, ordering that several
thousand bushels of corn be distributed
among these poor people, which will
prove of great benefit. Still, the evil
increases day by day, by the arrival of
hundreds of poor refugees from points
north of here, especially from Indiana.
During the last three years every man
and woman, who was sent north of the
Ohio river to remain during the war,
was landed at Jeffersonville, and told
to make out as best they could. Whole
families, whose property had been de
stroyed by the conflicts of the war, and
who were unable to support themselves
at home, were furnished transportation
to the Ohio river and set adrift in Indi
ana. That State had, when the active
power of the rebellion was quelled, be
come overrun with poor people from
the South, especially from Georgia, who
had lost their all, and were dependent
upon the charities of the good people
of that State for a living.
Much credit and great honor are due
Gov. Morton and the people of In
diana for the good nature with which
they have submitted to this inconveni
ence ; but the Governor, seeing a way
in which he could relieve his State from
this burden, has set to work, and he is
now sending back these people by the
hundreds. Every day witnesses train
loads of them going up into East Ten
nessee or down into Georgia. Not one
in fifty of these returning refugees have
money enough to buy them a meal's
victuals, and very often several members
of the family ale sick, and no medical
attendance can be procured for them.—
The other day, a woman who had
been sent from sonic point in the
North arrived at Cartersville, the ter
minus of the road, and had to be removed
from the car on a mattress, being so very
sick that she was unable to walk, and
our informant stated that she was in
that condition when she started. There
are no means of conveyance from Car
tersville to Atlanta except by hiring
private teams and paying a high price
for them, while at Cartersville there is
nothing in the eatable line that can be
brought for love or money. We are
daily receiving letters in regard to the
condition of affairs in Georgia, and it is
well that the people of the North should
understand this matter.—Chattaytooga
Gazette, Jane 2:.
Is The Rebellion at an End?
The question whether the rebellion is
at an end is a very important one, so far
as the rights of our citizens are concern
ed, and the power of military authority
over them. Eminent lawyers, itseems,
are in doubt about the fact whether
rebellion is over, though eminentgener
als are in no doubt at all, for they are
dismissing their armies as fast as rail
roads and steamboats can carry the sol
diers to their homes. Which of these
authorities are we to rely upon? If the
rebellion is not over, the armies should
not be dismissed. If it is over; then
civil law is supreme, and military rule
must end. Justice Thompson, of the
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, says
the rebellion is over, a fact that the
public has recognized as well as
he, for it has just celebrated " Union
and Peace." The Confederate armies,
as well as the Union armies, are dis
banded. The authority of the United
States is nowhere resisted by force,
therefore the citizens are entitled to the
benefit of habeas corpus. So reasoning
and believing, Justice Thompson has
released Mr. Cozens from arrest by Col.
brink, who held him, it is said, on an
order from the military authorities at
Washingtmi Faxed upon a verdict of the
Court Martial recently sitting in his
case. As these proceedings are secret
and unknown, Justice Thompson could
not be expected to know officially
the present aspect of the case. He only
knew a citizen was held under arrest by
military order in time of peace, when
the suspension of habeas corpus by act
of Congress has expired, and, acting on
this knowledge, it has given him his
liberty, as being restrained without due
authority of law. If Judge Thompson
is wrong, the U. S. Supreme Court can
set him right. If the Secretary of War
is right, it is time the U. S. Supreme
Court had so determined. It is due to
the citizens, as well as the authority of
the laws, thin, they should know autho
ritatively wThat the law is, which they'
will respect accordingly. This conflict
of authority is not between judicial offi
cers, but between a Court of competent
jurisdiction on one side, and an officer of
the Executive branch of the Govern
ment on the other.—Phil«. Lcdgcr.
The One-Man Power Breaking Down.
Tyrants never resign authority which
they usurp, and it is only through the
application of force that their hold can
be loosened. So long has the Secretary
of War of this Government been allow
ed the exercise of his own arbitrary de
sires that, unless the several State au
thorities shall speedily interpose their
authority, he will have clenched and
riveted the chain of military rule upon
civil society—never to be removed.—
Upon every occasion arising he attempts
to make military rule override civil law.
Lately, in the case of two lieutenants
and an enlisted man of the Reserve
Corps, who were arrested at Detroit for
the murder of a hackman, the Secretary
demanded that the accused be turned
over for trial by court martial. In re
ply Gov. Crapo, of Michigan, sends
him a letter declining to do so, in which
the following points are made, and
which, if persisted in will effectually
break up the one man-power:
"1. That although the parties were
and are in the military service of the
United States, yet they were not in the
discharge of military duty at the time
of committing the offence. 2. That
the homicide was committed beyond
the limits of the military camp to which
the accused was attached. 3. It was
not an offence against the peace and
sovereignty of the United States, but
against those of the State of Michigan.
4. That he has uo power under Consti
tution and laws of that State to comply
with the Secretary's request. * * *
In view of all the facts in this case, it
does not appear to me that I have power
to comply with your request, and if I
had such power, its exercise would be
impolitic and unwise."—Patriot and
Union.

And even where this fearful disease has taken
hold it will afford greater relief than any other
medicine.
Miss Kate Vanderslice, of Pottsville, says:
" I was benefitted more by using the Phcenix.
Pectoral than any other medicine I ever used."
Elias Oberholtzer, of Lionville, Chester coun
ty, was cured of a cough of many years' stand
ing by using the Pheetdx. PectoraL
Joseph Lukens, of Hall street, Phcenixville,
certifies that he was cured of a cough of two
years' standing, when all other medicines had
failed, by the use of Phcenix PectoraL
Jacob Powers certifies that he has sold hun
dreds of bottles of the Phcenis Pectoral, and
that all who used it bear testimony of its won
derful effects in caring cough.
John Royer, editor of the Independent Pluznix,
having used it, has no hesitation in pronounc
ing it a complete remedy for cough, hoarse
ness and irritation in the throat.
.
The West Chester Jeffersonian says: "We
have known Dr. Oberholtzer personally a num
ber of years, and it gives us the greater pleas
ure to recommend his medicines, inasmuch as
the public rarely have the benefit of family
medicines prepared by a physician of his ac
quirements and experience.'
Dr. Oberholtzer is a member of the Alumni
of the Medical Department of the University
of Pennsylvania, at which institution he grad
uated in 185 i.
The Reading Gazette says: "This cough rem
edy is made by Dr. L. Oberholtzer, of Phoenix
ville, Pa., and it has acquired an unsurpassed
reputation in caring coughs. It is carefully
and skillfully prepared from:Wild Cherry Bark
and Seneka Snake Root."
Dr. Geo. B. Wood., Professor of the Practice
of Medicine in the University of Pennsylvania,
Physician to the Pennsylvania Hosplial, and
one of the authors of the United States Dispen
satory, says of Seneka Snake Root • " Its action
is specially directed to the lungs."
The proprietor of this medicine has so much
confidence in its curative powers, from the tes
timony of hundreds who have used it, that the
money will be paid back to any purchaser who
is not satisfied with its effects.
It is so pleasant that children cry for It.

IRON IN THE BLOOD
It is well known to the medil rofession
that IRON Is the vital Principle ca or p Life Ele
ment of the blood. This Is derived chiefly from
the food we eat; but If the food is not properly
digested, or if, from any cause whatev r, the
necessary quantity of iron is not taken Into the
circulation, or becomes reduced the whole sys
tem suffers. The bad blood will irritate the
heart, will clog up the lungs, will stupefy the
brain, will obstruct the liver, and will send Its
disease producing elements to all parts of the
system, and every one will suffer in whatever
organ may be predisposed to disease.
The great value of
IRON AS A MEDICINI,
Is well known and acknowledged by all medi
cal men. The difficulty- has been to obtain such
a preparation of it as will enter the circulation
and assimilate at once with the blood. Thin
point, says Dr. Hayes, Massachusetts State
Chemist, has been attained in the Peruvian
Syrup, by combination in a way before on
known.
THE PERUVIAN SYRUP

Iron. A New Discovery in Medicine that strikes
at the root of Disease by supplying the blood

Fever and Ague, Loss of Energy, Low Spirits
THE PERUVIAN SYRUP
