Eis and Its crew rs rebelf, these lands are
tcrftiscG for treason under the Constitution.

Of the government to them, as well as its
right to distribute then among its soldiers

them, Is still more fndisputab1c. II 1t be
claimed that their former oWnera are loyal
men, al "Inyoluntarily" detained in Dixie,
their number is SO great that they ought to

sufcr their homes to be sold for ta-es, Us
non:rcsIdcnts, they tave certainly no oth:r
right than all other nou-re6idcnta whosc
property may be sold Tor taxes. Not treason,
rebellion, couhscation, conquest, aud judicial
s,le for Government taxes MI combined, can
give tho Government little to the property
Of rebel, according to the votes Of Fcrnan-

the feature Of the bill which weighs heaviest
on The CcppeEhead conscience is the provision
