OPINION OF THE ATToRNEY-GE -GENERAL-The
Attorney General it is understood has given a
written opinion to the President that under the
S9th section of the law of 1899, it will be i'm
possible to collect any revenue in any of the Sc
ceded States That section declares that the trial
of any fact regarding violation of the revenue
laws shall be within the judicial district in which
the seizure or forfeiture occurs. AS there are no
United States Courts, Judges or Marshals in any
of the ports of the seeded States, there arc no
means, under existing laws, of enforcing any
penalties for violation of the revenue, even if it
practicable to appoint collector to reside on
shipboard, within four miles of the port

negroes amoung US, Therefore

the course of Abe Lincoln, as marked out in his

short; Montgomery 10000 bales; Columbus 40,-

including the overland cotton from Memphis,
which is now put into the New Orleans receipts
