CONSCIENCE PROPERTY, We took occa-
sion few days since, to refer TO the immense
amount of private property Of the Southern
people, and often of non-combatants, which,
during the recent war, had been taken away
and carried North. We again recur to the
subject In the Daily Press there isa standing
column, left open, under the heading of CON-
science Money" to record the return OF sums
ranging from five cents to thousands OF dollars,
which have been stolen by Government officials.
Ought there not to be column, resembling
this, opened to make known the restoration Of
private property, stolen during the war? Is
the obligation to return the property of an in
diyidual, now, perhaps, in necessitous circum-
stances, less than to wealthy and powerful
government? 1T right in the one case as
we'll as in the other, and must be 50, under the
teachings Of that great moral commandment,
which says, thou shalt not steal" Many in
stances have been mentioned to US Of the prop
erty of Southern citizens, which had been seen
iinsthe houses on the tables and in the book
cases of citizens of Northern States Among
others, We learn that the extensive and valua
bic library of the Rev. Phillip Slaughter, Of
Cu'peper, collected by himself during sojourn
in Europe, and taken from his house about the
time of the battle Of Cedar Mountain, now fills
the shelves of citizen of a western town, on
the banks of the Ohio. Old Family Bibles,
too, which are not only valuable for that pieti-
um affections" which no stranger can feel,
but as valuable evidences often referred to, and
relied on, in Courts of Justice, rest on the cen
tre. tables Of many Of the "sold men, of the
North. Is it right that this state Of things
should continue? We recognize the difficulty
i'm many cases, of identifying the rightful own
'ershiplof theaproperty whichsmay have7gotten
into honest hands, who would Willingly restore
it, could it be ascertained to- whom lit, belonged.
But again in many, very many cases, thcre are
names, or other means Of identity on the prop
erty, which would enable the present holder, if
once to send, direct, or to open communication
with him on the subject We appeal to the
Northern press to bring this subject prominent
ly to the attention Of the people Of that region.
The same Flag now floats over all the States,
and we lave butone Federal Constitution. Shall
that Flag and that Constitution cover so palpa-
bic grievance? We therefore earnestly make
this appeal, and hope that a column headed
Conscience Properly will be opened to give cred
it to all who may act towards their neighbor5 as
they would have sheir ncighbors, under similar
circumstances, act towards them. A single sug-
gestion, in closing to our own people. If in the
occupation and stripping Of the houses of some
our absent citizens, during the var, their prop
erty should have gotten in the possession Of res
idents of Alexandria, which can be identified,
we are sure that they will take pleasure in i'm
mediately returning it, oa.e@- "t,%a. E.~s

We have already given the substance Of Pres
ident Johnson letter to the Tamman Society,
in New York ~
Mr.. Secretary SEWARD writes to the sameso,
ciety letter, which has this II rejoice with
the society that the conflict of arms has ceased
that the authority Of the government has been
vindicated, and that the flag of the Union now
floats triumphantly over every foot of national
domain. On the other hand, / mourn with the So
cietythat the perfect Union given US by our patri-
otto forefathers has not yet been entireyrestored
that eleven sovereign States are denied repre-
sentation 10 the Federal Congress, and are not
recognized as coordinate parts in the national
Legislature. How strange all this We have
killed dlsunion outright, and have killed African
slavery with it, and yet We are not completely
reunited If [ did not feel assured that the
American people cannot suffer so great and fatal
soeclsm to continue, should say as many
others do, that We are at a crisis. But | have
unbounded confidence in the wisdom and virtue
OF the American people. y ....... t........
Mr.. Secretary WELLEs writes ITO the
honor of your society, it has in all times and
under all circumstances, in war and in peace,
been faithful to the Union of the States and
the rights Of the States At no period since
its organization have its teachings and services
been more required than at the present, when
the victorious arms Of the republic, having sup
pressed the false theory that the Union can be
divided by secession, or the voluntary with,
drawal Of State from its federal relations and
obligations, we are compelled to encounter
the opposite extreme of compulsory exclusion
by which the centralists deny to eleven States
the representation in Congress which is guaran-
teed to them by the constitution. This doc
triDe of compulsory exclusion is scarcely less
offensive than that of voluntary secession. -
Each is fatal to the perpetuity Of the Union. y

JEFFERSON DAVIS.

The President, on the 10th inst, sent
IN essage to the Senate, in reply to
the inquiry of that body why JEFFERSON
DAVIS is confined and why he is not
brought to trial. The message covers
reports from the Secretary Of War and
the Attorney General, and does not
otherwise respond to the Senate reso-
luton except by referring to the annual
message of the President. The Sec
rctary of War explains that JEFFERSON
DAVIS is held on charges of treason,
of melting the assassination of ABRA-
HAM LINCOLN, and of starving Union
prisoners of war; that the President
desired to have him first tried for trc-
son, and that the Attorney General adj
vised Virginia as the most proper place
for such trial, but that the Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court declines to hold
court within the limits Of that circuit
The Attorney General states the sub
stance Of the opinion heretofore givcr
by him to the President, and there tht
matter is left.
