To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A "rider" attached to the army appropriation bill, took from the President the command of the army, by providing that executive orders to it should be given only through the general of the army, who should not be removed from office, save by previous act of the Senate. The same en- actment disbanded all the militia of the ^tes which had recently seceded. The President stated to Congress that he approved the bill as to the appropriation ; he protested, how- ever, against the " rider," claiming t...hat it violated guaran- tees of the constitution, in depriving eleven states of their militia, and the Executive of the command of the army. A bill for the admission of Nebraska became a law in Feb- ruary, having been passed over the President's veto. It stipulated that Nebraska should never deny the right of voting to any person on account of his race or color. Con- gress, by appropriate legislation, authorized federal courts to issue writs of habeas corpus when any person was deprived of liberty.
