verse the Judgment of one of the State Courts ut
the State Of Georgia. but also declares the law

cal purposes. | am bound, BY the monopoly
which that Court holds over pubic opinion, and
that Justly for its great abiitT and iesa. learning
to admit that the decision Is correct. Yet de-
pore greatly the consequences that may herea'-
ter follow: and well might The Court say, hOn un-
peasant the duty. - which may lead to conse-
ouences which shall have an enduring influence
on the institutions of this country" One OF the
consequences of the decree must be, the mOdus
operandi of ITS execution; and what must Be the

against one of our own sister States, and that OF

The Duke of Cumberland, ,inproceeding to the House of Lords, was also attacked in the Park, and his Royal llighness was dragged from his horse, and very roughly used by the multitude. At this junction, several of the police forced their way through the mob, and extricating his Royal iiighness from the perilous situ- ation into which he had fallen, succeed ed in getting him through the mob, and escorted him onfaotto tue horse guards, t being deemed advisable that he should not mount his horse again.
