Sales Of Property Under the Confederate 80.
quostratiOu Laws.
The case OF Knox vs. Lee, from Texas, which was
submitted upon printed arguments by Mr.. Paschal
for Knox and Mr.. Wells for Lee was ordered to be
reargued at the next term OF the Supreme Court Of
the United States. The case involves but two
points; ono the erect Of sale of property by the
Confederate States under their sequestration laws
against alien eneies the other upon instruction
OF the Judge upon the measure OF damages. He said
that I'm assessing the damages the jury win recol
lect tnat Whatever amount they may give In their
verdict can be discharged by the payment of such
amount In legal tender notes Of the United States"
1t Ia said that the difficulty was upon this instruc
tion, and that the argument has been ordered be-
cause 1t opens up the whole question Of tho
constitut0nality Of the legal tender laws. The
other question, which Is not less i'm
portant, arose upon the following instruc.
ton OF Judge Duval, OF Texas:-"lt appears
nom the evidence that these sheep were conscated
as the property OF alien enemy and sold under the
authority Of the so-called Confederate government
on the 7th Of March, 1s63 and that Knox, in connec
ton with others, perhaps, became purchaser thereof
have to say to the jury that such sale conferred
title whatever upon the purchasers or upon any one
knowing that title was derived from this source.n
The case will be argued by Judge Paschal against
the Instructions and by Mr.. Wells for them.
