was taken up TO the Supreme Court, and
there the decision was affirmed, pro for
ma. By friendly understanding between
Pennsylvania and Maryland, the case was
brought TO the Supreme Court Of the United
States, that it might be adjudicated and
thus settle the question between the two
States"
The decision Of the Supreme Court, as
represented, though confined to the case
before the court, is broad as the Union it.
self, covering every case Of state legisla-
ton interfering with the summary process
of reclamation, provided in the law Of con-
gress on the subject of fugitive slaves. =
The correspondent of the New York Am
elican says the decision covers the whole
question Of the right Of trial by jury, Sc
cured by the recent law Of this State, to all
persons claimed as fugitive slaves; and
which, he might have added, visits the Pc
naties Of fine and Imprisonment upon any
person who shall attempt to secure such
fugitive under the law Of Congress. We
quote his language, exclamation points and
all:
"They decide, with but one dissenting
voice, that the law in question, and all 9TH
er state laws which prevent the most sum-
mary reclamation Of all fugitive slaves Cor
any other person claimed as such) under
the Ac: of Congress which ordains the
mode Of that reclamation. are unconstitu-
tional and therefore null"
"Judge Story (!!!) delivered the opinion
Of the court. Judge Mclean alone dissent
ed from it. All honor and praise to him.
Judge Baldwin delivered separate opinion
differing as to the grounds Of the decision.
He bases his judgment on the constitution
alone, which he deems sufficient, and pro-
nounces the Act Of Congress supereroga-
tory. Without it, as with it, any southern
er may take his slave wherever he can find
HIM, without reference to state laws secur-
ing liberty TO citizens. Judges fancy and
Daniel also delivered separate opinions,
making exceptions to some part of the ar
gument, of the majority, but arriving at the
same conclusion"
Another correspondent says:-
"The opinion Of the Court is, that Con-
gress, under the Constitution, has the ex-
elusive right to egislate upon this matter,
the concurrent power of the State Legisla'
lures being superseded, except the right to
enact auxiliary laws to assist in carrying
the intent Of the Constitution into effect"
