lation Of the rights Of property ard the courtees
and mmunites due to . citizen, would, without am
pie apology and remuneration, be esteemed by any
government righteous csuse of war, and will just.
y arouse the indignation Of the whole South. Who
can look for frsterna feeling and love for Union

affirm that il citizen Of the North we're robbed ct
the South of an equal amount Of property,

no doubt contented ard happy under his care, and
were no doubt well pleased with the arrangement
under which they were travelling in tho service OF
