WhHf Means.

Confiscation means abolition, and it is be
cause it means this that abolitionism SO vehe-
mently insists upon 1t. 1t mems the eman.
cipation of more than three millions Of negro
slaves and the care ani support OF them by
the general government or by the local mu-
nicpal governments.
Democrats do not object to any proper
confiscation, executed by the proper consti-
tutional authority. 1t is right that tho
authors of the rebellion and the leaders in it
should suffer in their property as we'll as in
their persons, but they, as all other offenders,
must suffer by constitutional law. Congress
have not the constitutional power to confis.
cate property by simple enactment, any more
than they have the constitutional power to
hang an offender by simple enactment
Confscation is penalty, the same as hanging
or Imprisonment is penalty, for crime,
and it must be inflicted by competent legal
tribunal after trial and conviction OF the OF.

Remember, that before we send the
Sentinel from the office it must be
paid for. A great manv of our for

- The Republican organ at Wash
ington City proposes to build the Pa
cifc Railroad with the Fugitive Slaves
now in Kansas. We are not advised
exactly how. IF the plan is to sell
the negroes and hire white men, it is
feasible. If it be to hire the negroes,
it is about as sensible as Republican
projects in general. All the negroes
in the world, as hired laborers, would
not construct that railroad till the end
Of time.
