documentary evidence, relating to the Ki-
lona plantation lease. Counsel related at
length the situation in Louisiana when
General Sheridan wa* there, and held that
under the reconstruction acts the general
had sole c ntrol of the autonomy of the
state. He hod the power to turn out the
governors and all civil officers and apj>oint
persons of his own sole choice. These acts
were recognized as valid by every branch of
the government, and if they were not valid,
then congress was not a legal representative
body, and even his honor, if apj*ointed and
confirmed since 1S68, had no right to sit
upon the bench. General Butler intimated
that he would not argue against the cotisti
tutionality of the reconstruction
legality of the constitutions adopted by the
southern states iu 186$. Counsel then went
on to argue at great length the common law
points of the case.
