The subject of reconstruction first appeared in the Senate in Sumner's resolutions of Feb. 11, 1862, See his speech, July 11, 1867. Works, vol. XI. p. 397. which declared that the seceded States had abdicated all rights under the Constitution, and become felo de se, or lapsed; and therefore slavery, as a peculiar local institution, without any origin in the Constitution or in natural right, but dependent solely on local laws, had ceased to exist; and Congress should assume jurisdiction over the vacated territory, and proceed to establish therein republican forms of government.
