"TRUTH WILL PREVAIL"

Vol. IV. No. 3.] CITY OF NAUVOO, ILL. DEC. 15, 1842 [Whole No. 63.

The very able and learned article on Habeas Corpus,' written by Justin Butterfield, United States' Attorney, for the District of Illinois, is worthy of attention. He shows, in a very lucid manner, what our right and privileges are, pertaining to that subject, and fully sustains the proceedings and views of the City Council, and the Municipal Court; it is sustained by the usages of all enlightened Courts, and accord with the opinion of every intelligent man,-the opinions of Ex-Governor Boggs, Gov. Reynolds, of Mo., and Gov. Carlin, to the contrary notwithstanding.
