ACTION OF THE HOUSE UPON TUE SUBJECT.

The House Commute on the Judiciary
have had referred to them, to repeal, por-
ton of joint resolution explanatory of an
act to suppress instruction, to punish trea.
son and rebellion, to seize and confscate the
property of rebels, and for other purposes,
approved July, 1862. The Committee re-
port that the object of the bill in question is
to repeal so much Of the joint resolution re-
ferred to therein as prohibits the forfeiture
ofthe real estate Of rebels during the term Of
their natuarl lives. That, although by the
first and second section of said act the crimes
of treason or setting on foot a rebellion, or
giving aid and comfort thereto, are made
subject to the alternative of fine, and
which may result in the sale of the real es-
tate of the delinquent, there is no part
thereof, except the fifth and sixth sec
tons, authorizing the seizure and sale of
the property of certain classes therein desig-
mated, of such other persons as shall refuse,
after sixty days notice by proclamation of
the Executive, to cease to give further aid to
the existing rebellion, which can be consid-
cred as involving a forfeiture of real estate
within the technical Specification Of the man
ifest reference to the condition of things
the state of actual war existingat the time |;
and were intended only for the special pur-
pose of bringing it to an end, and that the
same can in their view of the case, have no
prospective operation since the condition Of
things has been determined. The effect of
the repeal of SO much of the joint resolution
as prohibits the forfeiture of the real estate
Of the delinquents beyond the term Of their
natural lives, would only be the enactment
of an ca post facto law within the meaning
Of the Constitutional intcrdict, by annexing
to crime that has been already committed
new and additional punishment. The
Committee, for these reasons, has been
discharged from the further consideration of
the subject, and the bill lies on the table.

Hon Emerson Etheridge.

correspondent of the Nashville Union h
Dispatch has settled down on Hon. Emerson
Etheridge as the Conservative candidate for
Governor, in August next. He says;
wish 10 mention the name of the Hon.
Emerson Etheridge, of Weakly county, for
the consideration of the people as a suitable
man for Governor at the next election. AL
though the election will not take place until
next Augusa, think it well for the subject
to be thought of, and the merits of those
who are qualified and eligible, under the pres
ent condition Of affairs, TO be discussed. II
occnrs to the writer that Mr.. Etheridge OF
all men 10 the State, is THE MAN for Conserv-
alive candidate for Governor. As man OF
ability. he has no superior in the State---as Il
popular orator, bold and fearless-he has no
equal. Then he is consistent Union man
first, last and all the time. By Union man
| 90 not mean one of the Brownlow-A rnell
type-but one who thought at first that the
union Of the States should be preserved, and
the authority Of the United States exerted
over all the States. He was in favor OF
stopping the war, in aud out of Congress, as
soon rs resistance TO the authority of the
government ended. For such man | have
great respect because OF his cons istency and
honesty. He never pretended TO be in favor
of the Confederate government before the
Federal army occupied the State, and hence
he did not have to take the oath aud perse-
cute his friends in order to prove that he was
loyal. lie never had leather contract with,
nor held office under the Confederate govern
ment directly or indirectly, as some of the
present Radical faction of the State did.
Let Etheridge be nominated and let him
canvass the State, and he win certainly be
elected, notwithstanding the franchise law
and then we will have the laws administered
according 10 idp. X.

There they alike in trembling hope repose,
The bosom of his Father and his God"
