Stolen and Deported slaves.
--The N Y. Herald, in a late article on Lincoln's emancipation proclamation, which it declares can have no effect except where there are armies in a position to carry it out, has the following paragraph:
The Constitution defines treason and prescribes the mode of punishing it. Whole communities cannot be legally made traitors by proclamations, nor their property seized and confiscated; and if Congress passed fifty laws on the subject they would have no legal efficacy.
Consequently, if slave property should be taken away from the citizens of the United States by Generals of the army, in virtue of the proclamation of the President, the property must be restored or paid for by the United States Government, unless the persons from whom it had been taken should be convicted of treason in a court of law, and after a full and fair trial.
The Herald is correct.
The slaves taken from our citizens during the war will have to be accounted for at it
