U. S. 149, U. S. 712). Sovereignty is exercised over conquered territory under no specific constitutional power, but as part of the rights inherent in the inter- national nation created by the constitution. Legislation, by treaty or statute (American Insurance Co. V. Canter, i Peters, 511), decides ■when the constitutional jurisdiction shall be coterminous with this national sovereignty, and until some legislation, treaty or statiite decides this political question, the judicial power of the Un...ited States does not attach (Jecker v. Montgomery, 13 Howard, 498) ; unless Con- gress legislates otherwise, the "belligerent rights of a conqueror" remaining complete until this time (16 Howard, 164). Sovereignty, in short, moves with the international acts of the nation. Constitutional jurisdiction travels with the municipal law of the United States, and is created by a treaty because it is part of that law. Nor does any decision, not even that cited referring to the Dis- trict of Columbia, traverse this distinction, for the simple reason, if no other, that a treaty annexing territory without conferring civil rights — that is, extending constitutional jurisdiction in greater or less degree — has never yet been before our courts.
