for measure like the one now before the Senate It
may be that in ordinary times grave objection could
be urged to this bill but when it is brought forward
at this particular per iod with the avowed purpose of

the writ OF hoLeas corpus in districts where this writ

that officers who arrest and confne Gsloyal and

whom it is directed, then am against the whole con.

tend to weaken the strength and efficiency of the army
That army readily sneered at by Senators is the fe
