Washington, July 10.-—It is not segard- .
ed as quite certain that a special Military
Commission wi l be instituted in a short
time for the trial of Jeff. Davis, on the
charge of complicity in the assqpsination of
the President, aiid workmen ¿are engaged
to-day iu enlarging the court-room at the
old penitentiary, where the conspirators
were lately tried. The discovery of addi-
tional evidenoe involving Davis is said to
be the cause of the trans er of his case from
a civil toa military tribunal. Col. Barton
Harrison, his private secretary is confined
in the penitentiary, which is a significant
fact that the rest of the party in the ca-e
at the same time will be Boon brought ii\.
In this connection it may be added that
Prof. McCulloch, the rebel inventor of a
way for overcoming certain d ffi.:ultÍP8, si p
posed to refer to the rebel plots to burn tiie
cities, as alluded to in the evidence by the
late conspiracy trial, was brought here to-
day and placed in prison. John Celestino,
a Cuban, who was arrested in Philadelphia
on a cha ge of being the assassin of Secre-
tary St-ward, was to-day released from the
Old Capital Prison on -conditiou that he
leaves this country within the next ten daye.
Cel< 8tine was ttie blockade winner wbo
created quite a d splay here by his extrava-
gant living. He was heard to utterthreat*
ag.iinst Secretary Seward, and hence his ai-
r-;st in April. He has been in prison ever
since.
