This paper has always asserted thai if tbs
South were conquered the Northern Govern
ment would seek to pay the eypsHaes IF the
War by the appropriation Of the property Of
the people of the Soctt TO that object. This
bill prescribes sonlo Of the modes ~ which it
is to be done. The same body which passed
it AVE under consideration other reuenu3
measures, in which it is intended 20 tax SL0uee
and cotton. zee, strange as it may seem,
slaves a. well &c cotton, for, although they
are rubbing us of our servants as fast as they

This bill is a plain avowaI Of the dari.n of
the Yankee Government, in :.s event it gets
the power over the South. II is, indeed, only
q ~foretaste o, what that Government will do
bJ vet more sweeping and ummary measures
The Yankee Government has not vet gotten
the world 10 a sling. II may venture upau it's
measures 70 its military districts, but it's army
may ha"a 60 evacnate them as they have done
sne Valley OF Virginia. Nothing short of a
complete overrunning aud holding of the coun
try can give the Federalists security Ia their
proceedings nay, and not even that. Then will

their homes and putting in their places a new
population of ali sarte OF men, including "auy

ruin which he brings upon Us, Since he has

thrive no more az he tae done.
But dsspita any of those ohst.oies which
the Federal Government will certainly en-
counter, the people of The South may rest %
cured that it it gets the power, it will ss far as
it can, visit upon them the entire burthens of
this war. The only way to prevent it is to
hgh, to the death, and never dssponding or re
