IT escaped attention till it was too late for the body of the work, that among the restrictions we ought to have adverted to the subject of treason, and the corruption of blood. Treason is the single crime defined in the constitution, and it consists only " in levying war against the "United States, or in adhering to their enemies, giv"ing them aid and comfort." The term "levying "war" is understood to have been taken from the English statute of 25th Edward III., and is to receive the same construction with us which is given to it in that country. The war which is spoken of, embraces both hostilities from abroad and internal rebellion. An insurrection, the object of which was to suppress an office of excise established under a law of the United States, and the marching with a party in arms to the house of the ex* cise officer and committing acts of violence and outrage there, with a view by force and intimidation to prevent the execution of the law, has been held to amount to a levying of war against the United States. (153) A conspiracy to subvert by force the government of the United States, violently to dismember the union, to coerce repeal of a general law, or to revolutionize a territorial government by force if carried into effect, by (153) United States Vigol, 2 Dallas, 346. United States v. Mitchell, ib. 348. embodying and assembling a military body in a military posture is an overt act of levying war, and not only those who bear arms, but those who perform the various and essential parts which must be assigned to different persons for the purpose of prosecuting the war, are guilty of the crime. (154) Similar acts committed against the laws or government of a particular state, are punishable according to the laws...
Download or read book Habeas Corpus in Wartime written by Amanda L. Tyler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Habeas Corpus in Wartime unearths and presents a comprehensive account of the legal and political history of habeas corpus in wartime in the Anglo-American legal tradition. The book begins by tracing the origins of the habeas privilege in English law, giving special attention to the English Habeas Corpus Act of 1679, which limited the scope of executive detention and used the machinery of the English courts to enforce its terms. It also explores the circumstances that led Parliament to invent the concept of suspension as a tool for setting aside the protections of the Habeas Corpus Act in wartime. Turning to the United States, the book highlights how the English suspension framework greatly influenced the development of early American habeas law before and after the American Revolution and during the Founding period, when the United States Constitution enshrined a habeas privilege in its Suspension Clause. The book then chronicles the story of the habeas privilege and suspension over the course of American history, giving special attention to the Civil War period. The final chapters explore how the challenges posed by modern warfare during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries have placed great strain on the previously well-settled understanding of the role of the habeas privilege and suspension in American constitutional law, particularly during World War II when the United States government detained tens of thousands of Japanese American citizens and later during the War on Terror. Throughout, the book draws upon a wealth of original and heretofore untapped historical resources to shed light on the purpose and role of the Suspension Clause in the United States Constitution, revealing all along that many of the questions that arise today regarding the scope of executive power to arrest and detain in wartime are not new ones.
Download or read book A View of the Constitution of the United States of America written by William Rawle and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Rawle, who died in 1836, was a leading member of the first generation of American lawyers after independence, and his A View of the Constitution was one of the most influential books on constitutional law published before the Civil War. The book's interest is not, however, merely historical: Rawle's approach provides a powerful challenge to contemporary assumptions about the original meaning and ongoing significance of the Constitution. His understanding of the constitutional authority of the president -- he saw it as broad yet legally bounded -- is especially interesting given our current debates. This book is part of the Legal History Series, edited by H. Jefferson Powell, Duke University School of Law.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War shook America to the core of its constitutional foundations. Before the war, the Constitution protected slavery and kept power decentralized. During the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln gathered enormous national power to combat what he called the «anarchy» of secession. After the war, the nation struggled to understand what had happened. Historians Christopher Waldrep and Lynne Curry have assembled a collection of constitutional documents to explore the meaning of the Civil War, the influence of constitutionalism on presidential war powers, and the U.S. Supreme Court's fight to limit the war's impact in post-Civil War America.
