SAL raising armies, equppng fleets, and providing for tn
calling out of the militia conferred upon Congress
in other clauses and by express terms But the power
levy military contributions from the enemy, was not thu
conferred upon Congress, and by irresistible inference
the universal practice of governments, and by its OWL
nature. as mere Executive military right incident tc
military operations il reverted to that Executive branch
of the government, whose duty is execute carry out
or make the war which Congress has declared BY the
very TERMS therefore, of the lntegencers admission
the military right to levy military contributions from the
enemy at her ports in military possession belongs to
the Executive We trust that shall hear further
objections from the ntegencer against the exercise OF
this power until that journal is prepared once more to
back out from its position on this subject and retract lis
distinct and deliberate admission
But in the second of the above passages which we have
itacised the nellgencer, if in desperate resolution
not to abandon any hazard the interests OF its foreign
clients, urges that the power to levy these military con-
tribuons from the enemy should not be exercised by
authority of the Executive because has not been sec
prsssiy conferred" him by the constitution The OBJ
lection utterly frivolous its face There is no en-
press power set in terms in the constitution authorizing
the President to direct military expedition in time OF
war against Tampco or Vera Cruz TO seize enemy
ship or magazine, provisions, or munitions OF war
Yet the Intellgencer surely does not doubt the power
of the President do these acts, in the conduct OF
the war They belong like the right to levy
military contributions, TO the execution or exercise
of the war-makng power against the enemy They be-
long, then, of course, to the Executive OF the nation,
when the act of Congress has made the exercise and
ecuton of this war-makng power, his constitutional
executive duty.
We have overthrown these pretences of argument set
up by the federal organ, perhaps deliberately than
they deserve. The plight of Journal is surely most I'M
fortunate and pitiable when in arguing against its
government and in favor of the enemy-against the i'm
position of any Of the burdens of upon the foe and
by consequence in favor of their imposition upon
citizensit fails thus garingy to make out any de-
cent pretext for its unpatriotc We look with
mingled Indignation and commiseraton upon that spirit
too constantly shown before in the federal organ
which, even while the country is resounding with &C
carnations at the glorious dngs from Vera Cruz
would the joy of victory by depriving OF the
legitimate fruits OF conquest by thus avertng all the
burdens of the from the enemy and throwing them
upon the unaided resources Of our treasury
