What is the meaning of the privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended except in cases of invasion or rebellion when the public safety requires it?
Habeas corpus is the right of "innocent until proven guilty". At times, the safety of a country may require the suspension of this "right" - for example during times of rebellion, where a person may be imprisoned without proving them "guilty" first. This suspension of habeas corpus is usually deemed to "improve the safety of a country" during times of civil disobedience. For example, during the French Revolution, habeas corpus was suspended.

How did US President Jackson differ from President Lincoln on the suspension of habeas corpus?
President Andrew Jackson recognized that the Framers of the US Constitution had provision for the suspension of habeas corpus, however, as the Framers were aware that an "emergency" could be a pretext for the suspension, they made no express provision for its exercise. This was Jackson's view. And, he went on to say any presidential claims for this act required a close and suspicious examination by the Congress. President Lincoln, on the other hand, who, and by the way, less convincingly claimed that the habeas corpus clause allowed for broad suspension of constitutional rights in the presidential interest in time of rebellion or invasion. During the US Civil War, Lincoln's suspensions were not carefully examined by Congress in a suspicious manner at all.
