That in easy of convictlon, before the sentences should be excerted, Davis should be allowed an opportunity to Appeal to tho Supreme Court of the United States; this would silence erliteism, secure Davis all his legal rights, and establish a precedent which might stand for ill tine. 4, That the oly doubt that oxtsted ns to the conviction of Davis was to be found in the question of the Jurisdiction of the mit- itary commission. : 6, That the prosecution should hold Dayis' nastunplon o| military authority against the ‘United States ns tho overt act of treason, and that his military orders, his commisstons of ofllversy, hia official announcements of jim. self as‘ Comimander-in-Chicf of the militar; and naval forces of the Confederate States,” his oficint reviews of troops, the oficial re- orta made to him by commanders of armies i" rebellion, should be proven to establish 18 conse. 6, That tho record of the oaths taken by hin a3 an officer in the United States army fag a Senutor, and as Secretury of War, shoul cd be shown with evidence that ho had violated thom. 7, That the various acts of cruelty to pris- oners of committed by his orders should ha proven; other minor counts could also bo introduced in the Indictinent to secure nut accumulation of charges. Gon, Butler's memorandum further sot forth that the prosecution should oxpect to ba met by the defense: 1. With the question of jurisdiction, bE sey an attempt to prove the right of secesuion. 8, With the claim that the duty of alle. gianee to n State was superior to the duty of allegiance to the General Government. 4, With the elain that the acts of: which Davis was aceusitd were performed by him ag tho head of n de facto Government, to which he had been vlectedt undor forms of Jaw. 5.
