Mr. JOHNSON - then withdrew bin amendment.. Mr. TRUMBULL said ail our - feirtall: uork hitherto was based upon' the theory thatthe territory over which rebels had control was - that of an I.enertij, and all :within it were to be regarded as enemies, and we had refuted to nay far property taken therein.

The State of Tennessee, ter luetance, believing herself beyond the power of Congress, had pro. seeded to abrogate every law end every 'omatitutional provision on which she was admitted to representation. If the judgment of the House wont with hie own, he proposed to exhibit to Tenneasee the power of Congress' against wrong and rapine and murder. The Governor had eon: a message to the Legislature Sating he was utterly powerless to pro tect , the citizens of Tonneasee against organized bands of robbers and mur derer., but the Legislature had adjourn. ed without providing any such means.
