5. And whereas provision is made by the said Act for the restitution of property found in the possession of a person convicted’ under the said Act, when, after advertising the same, as thereby directed, the ownership thereof shall be proved, upon payment of the reasonable cost of removing, depositing, and advertising and giving notice of the same: And whereas it is just that the expences of the prosecution shall also be paid by such owner, in case of such restitution: Be it therefore enacted, that no such property shall be restored until the expences of the prosecution shall also be paid by the owner, if not previously paid by the person convicted.
