""A Discussion Of The Constitutionality Of The Act Of Congress Of March 2, 1867, Authorizing The Seizure Of Books And Papers For Alleged Frauds Upon The Revenue"" is a book written by Sherburne Blake Eaton in 1874. The book discusses the constitutionality of an act of Congress passed in 1867 that authorized the seizure of books and papers for alleged frauds upon the revenue. Eaton examines the legal and constitutional implications of this act, and argues that it violates the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. He also discusses the potential impact of this act on individual rights and the broader principles of American democracy. This book provides a valuable historical perspective on the legal and political debates surrounding the protection of individual rights and the limits of government power in the United States during the late 19th century.Together With A Brief Statement Of Certain Objections To The Practical Working Of The Law.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
