Hadjhe been tried and convicted of perjury in direct connection with his texti- mony before the military commission, 1t would have fared much werse with him. He was tried and convicted under a general statute and was sentenced under a special statute baving relation to the erime of perjury in the District of Columbia, and his sent-nce is to suffer the fell penalty prescribed. His coun- sel, Mr. H. O. Gooding, has therefore ap- pealed from the sentence to the Supreme Coart | on He contends that Conover could only | be sentenced to suffer the penalty prescribed by the general statute under which he was convicted. The court does not meet in banc for some weeks yet. and, in the meantime, Conover will probably be sent to: Albany, as Judge Fisher intimated that it did not matter mucb whether he was in the jail or in the peniten‘iary: for even in the event of the ap- peal being sustained by the eourt in banc, he would <till have a penitentiary sentence to fulfil. Warden Brown leaves tor Albany next week, and Conover will, no doubt, be among the prisoners taken there at that time. 3 pecan ata Reac Estate SALes.—Messrs.
