pect of the. cpnfiiscation movement.
We believe this a groundless apprehen
sion,' notwithstanding the recent ora
cular. outgiving: of that bad and mal
evolent old man,. l'haddens Stevens, 6f
Pennsylvania; that ..confiscation is not
entertained or desired by any consid
erable portion of the people in any di
rection; and that the probability of the
adoption of the scheme is more renfotd
now than,at any period since the war.
We are. however, not unapprised of
thife fact that there are men. like Hun*
nicutt, of Virginia, and Holden, of
North Carolina, who advocate Con fiscal
tion, and ( that there are a few, perhaps
a very few, unprincipled and merce*
nary sheets in the South which make a
regular business of threatening thfe' ftto*
ple.w,th the military, and of thrusting
Thrid, Stevens’ bill in their faces,
These would, no doubt, like to see the
