September 90, 1886, J

The agen, for paying pensions al Burling
ton, Vermont,
SrR--ln order to guard more effe %ctually
against a repetition of frauds, as heretofore
pracliced by the production of forged pa
pers, the first three following additional
rules will be observed by the accounting
officers of the Treasury.
!. In every case where The pensiOner
employs an attorney to receive his pension,
the execution Of the power must be in the
presence OF at least one witness other than
the magistrate before whom It is acknow-
lodged. No payment to an attorney will
be allowed unless supported by a voucher
hus executed.
2. In all cases where the signature of
the pensioner or his attorney is required,
such pensioner or attorney will write his
name at length, i! capable of so doing -
otherwise his signature may be by mark or
or cross, in which case the execution must
be in the presence of at least one compe-
tent witness, other than the justice or no
taTy who acts officially in the case. .
8. No payments viii in future be made
20 any pens,oner, either in person or by ot-
torney, who has not applied for his pension
for more than one year, without the pro-
duction of evidence of his identity. as pre-
scr,bed in the instructions from this Office
of June 10, 1888, chapter /, section Q, and
form B; nor until such evidence has been
transmitted TO the Commissioner of pen
eions and a special direction authorizing
the payment has been given.
A.. In cases where a cetificate has been
issued by the commissioner of pensions tc
the widow or children Of an officer or sol
der under the act of June 7, 1882, or un
der the act Of Moy Is, 1928, no proof o
the relationship Of the applicant to the de-
ceased officer or soldier is to be required
by the pension agent, that proof having
been necessarily filed in the office of The
commissioner of pensions prior to the issu
ing of such certificate.

THE public are hereby informed that
Il the subscriber has Invented certain
new and useful machinery for manufacture
ing starch from potatoes. and has applied
for a patent to secure his right TO the same;
and Tat he is making said machinery at
his shop in Jerico, in the state OF Vermont.
The object of said machinery is more elftc
tually to separate the small stones and
gravel from the potatoes in the process Of
washing and in The process Of grinding, to
reduce the potatoes 10 a more perfect pulp,
by Which a larger quantity OF starch will be
obtained than by The usualmethod. Starch
manufacturers are invited Ia call and see.

and returns with him. The law of Eng
land and the law of this Commonwealth
are alike in this respect. The general
principle that slavery was contrary to the
law of nature and nations was part of
our Jurisprudence, whatever laws and re-
gulalions were adopted by other States
We are to recognize It as existing in other
States, not our own We deal with other
States as if they had established slavery
within their own limits, and lend our aid
to enforce contracts made therein, growing
out of and resting upon the Institution OF
slavery, because they are lawful at the
place Of contract. The constitutional gro
vision in regard to fugitive slaves was to
be construed strictly, That was an arti-
Gle of paramount necessity. But it was
an exception against natural right and
therefore to be strictly construed. Its ap-
plication is to be confined to cases of slaves
who escape, not to be extended 10 slaves
who are voluntarily brought here. The
Court did not now mean to deny the light
OF master to pass through free State
with Save, in order to 60 from one slave
the Court was, that the owner OF a save
in a slavc-hoIdjng State, bringing him
! here voluntarily, could not be allowed to
retain him E9re or carry him away wiz
him. Tint no person has a right to hold
child Of tender years FIR the purpose of
carrying i OF: Of he State and reducing
ii 10 a s:ate Of slayery5 The Chief JUS
tice also commented upon the leading
cases which had been cited at the bar.
| The child was finally discharged from
the custody Of the present claimant, Mr..
AYES, and entrusted for the present to the
care of ELS G. Lor!ng, Esq till further
order Of Court
The great importance of the above de-
cision is easily perceived. 1t establishes
| the principle that slavery cannot exist In
| Massachusetts, even for a temporary pur-
pose, and that slave, voluntarily brought
here by his master, becomes free, although
slavery is recognized by the laws of the
state Of which the master is !. ci.iz2n-
This is, we believe, the first decision in
any Of The free states, upon that precise
; point. Il has been decided in Indiana that
a master NAV travel through that state,
with a slave, from one slave holding state
to another. How far the Courts O! other
non siaTc-AolI.Hg states will consider
themselves boucd by this adjudication, is
Loubttul but the high rank held by the
Supreme Court of Massachusetts, gives
great weight to its decision on this, as or
other points

PEACE DEPAaTMENr.

PEACE HYNN.--0y ID. Dole.
Earth has groaned with hostile din.
Long field of blood has been,
But the battle clang must cease,
And the earth be robed in peace.
Sons Of song, the germ Of strife
Cease 10 quicken into life;
Breathe no more the strains Of fire,
Martial courage TO inspire.
Christians, show that you abhor
A the pageantry of war,
Touch those FURNISHED arms no more
Made to battle in human gore.
Heralds of the Prince of peace,
Would ye see his sway increase?
Strive to stem the guilty flood,
Which had deIuged earth with blood.
There's a brighter wreath Of fame
Than the warrior e'er can claim:
Up, o mortal, rouse thee now,
Place that laurel on thy brow.
