A newspaper correspondent says that Gen.
Grant once told him that he liked to read the
World, but hated its politics, from which the
said correspondent infers that the general
commanding our armies is good judge of a
newspaper, and from which we infer just the
contrary.

The Chicago Tribune ridicules Sue Muir
phys claim on the ground that the distinction
between Southern '1oyalists" and Southern
'rebels" is more fanciful than real that any
body in the South can prove "loyalty;" and
that everybody within the seeding States was
guilty of treason. The Tribune thence argues
that Congress might have confscated all South
ern property without committing any injustice;
and that the omission to do this is an act of
extraordinary grace. All (which shows that
Radicalism has so thoroughly disturbed the
minds of its votaries that they are utterly in
capable of discriminating between right and
wrong If it is true that the Confederate
government never had that legal status which
grows out of de fdctO existence and that the
people of the Confederate States never ceased
to be citizens of the United States, then they
can be punished for the crime of treason, if
they committed that crime, only by the meth
DDS and under the forms established by the
Constitution and the laws. If they were for
eign enemies, which is the theory of the re-
construction acts, they are liable only to such
treatment as the laws of war, interpreted ac-
cording to the understanding of the nine
teenth century, justifes victorious govern
ment in using towards defeated people. 1t
is false that the successful power acquires any
rights over the vanquished people which it
does not possess over its own citizens or SUBJ
iects. 1t is false that the defeated people
lose any of their natural rights Their natu-
raj rights involve the protection of life aud
property-an object for which all just govern
ment is established 4; and they are entitled to
such protection at the hands of the conquer
ing power. They forfeit, indeed, the priv
lege, not the right of separate autonomy
but that they forfeit their right to life and prop
erty is simply the doctrine of the savage.
Such doctrine may find favor among Afri-
can cannibals and American Radicals, but it
has been discarded by all truly civilized men
and by all enlightened thinkers.
