consider this decision by the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, as a complete and
solemn authority, to shew, that 10 case of a
difference OF opinion between the two gov
ernments, as to the extent of the powers
vested by the Constitution, while nei-
Their party is Competent to bind the other,
the Courts of each have power to act upon
the subject.
So in the case Of Rose Us. Iimely, (ee)
il was resolved, by the Supreme Court of
the II. S. itself, that sentence rendered
by constituted body, or by body
not empowered by its government, to take
cognizance of the subject, could have no
legal EFFECT whatever that the power un-
der which it acts, must be looked into,
and its authority to decide the questions,
which it processes to decide, must be con-
sdered !, and that the operation of every
judgment must depend upon the power of
the Court to render the Judgment, or, in
other words. on its jurisdiction over the
subject matter, which it has determin-
ed
These authorities are conclusive to JUS
tify this Court. in pursuing its own opn-
ions on this subject and l can perceive
no arguments justifying the authority of the
decisions of the Supreme Court of the u
pitcd States, in relation to this case, which
would not equally sustain its judgments,
rendered upon the construction of our act
OF descents, for example, should that
Court ever so far forget its own limited
powers, as TO intrench on that province,
also.
Upon the whole, am Of opinion, that
the Constitution confers no power upon the
Supreme Court Of of the United States, to
NEEDLE with the judgment of this Court,
in the case before us that this case does
not come within the actual provisions, of
the twenty-hfth section, of the Judicial
act and that this Court is both At liberty,
and is bound, to follow its own convictions
on the subject, any thing in the decisions.
or supposed decisions. of any other Court,
to the contrary notwithstanding.
My conclusion, consequently, is, that E.
very thing done in this cause. subsequent
ly to the judgment of reversal, by this
Court, was coram non JUDGE, unc onstitn
tiona,, and void, and should be entirely dis
regarded by this Court /; that the writ
of error in this case was improvidently al
lowed; and that the Judgment of rever-
sal by this Court, should be now certified
to the Superior. Court winch has succeed
ed the District Court of Winchester, in its
powers. for the purpose of being carried
INTO complete execution.

and from distractions OF tculness in the

This medicine bears no analogy what
ever to others of similar titles so com
monty complained Of, as operating with
violence; on the contrary, a particular
excellence OF this remedy is its being
suited to every aye and constitution. II

should no worms exist in the body; bu1
will, without pain or gripping, cleanse the
stomach ana bowels, of whatever is iorI
or offensive, and thereby prevent the pro

backward, but Of good and healthy CO.
lour, and the present warm weather VIII
bring it forward in its season. Fruit OF
all kinds was never known to &c more
abundant. We do not make these re
marks from what we have heard altoge-
Their, but from our own observation. 1t is
time the people Of Connecticut should
stop comnIaining, FOR as long as we have
enough andto spare there is no cause Of
complaint, and We already begin to feel
its bad effects. Spectators are busily
engaged in purchasing all the grain and
-four that can be had far and near, and il
consequently follows, that these articles
have taken rapid rise ;-iour which was
sold a few weeks since fer eight or nine
dollars by the barrel, is now selling for
eleven and twelve dollars, anu is still ris
Ing.
AS long as we continue to complain Of
a scarcity, tof course fOllows, that every
article of domestic growth will continue
10 rise. Nor is this the greatest evi! we
have to lear, for by our distrust of Divine
Providence, there is danger of calling
down the vengeance OF Heaven upon our
guilty heads. and it would be no wonder
if this should actually be tie case.

Whole christian world at peace, an EVENT.

OF the poorer class of people only, but it
is the language by far of the greatest part,
OF these wso are rich, and while they corr
tinue thus to murmnr, have we not great
reason to fear it will be said of them
bet them alone, they are joined to their.
