LEGAL Decision Thomas Sage. of
Lockp"r,. was last March indi,ed by the
grand jury of Niagara for perjury in swear

On Saturday. the 7,h inst. his bail sur

Elias Ransom, esq, LIST Judge If Niagara
county. on writ at habras corpus. From
u no'ice of case in the Lockporl Courier,
we learn that the prisoners counsel in~is
ted on several points for his discharge.
bu. the main ground taken was want of
jurisdiction III the Stale courts to take cog
nisance Of crimes against the laws Of the
United States. This subjec. was tiscL s.
sed on Saturday afternoon and G. d. La
Mout for the prisoner, insisted t!ld. uuder

laws passed in pursuance thereof. by Con

found. as well as before. and in all cases,
may look INTO The jurisdiction of the courts

criminal law. In the late case Of the PEG

Ell the prisoner to alIege wan. Of juris-
dic,ion, but Mcleod failed to establish the
point. Various authorities in the reports
ri the state courts. and also of the United
States. were cited OF the point.
His honor deferred his decision till Mon.
day afternoon following. when The parties
again appeared and the prisoner was dis
charged. This decision is one Of some
importance. as it appears that the courts
Of the United States have, exclusive Of
state courts, sole rognizance Of crimes and
offences under the United States Laws

scribers 10 make an arrangement with

series of Tales from real life.
weekly numbers, at the low price Of six
and a quarter cents per number, neatly
stitched up in handsome covers suitable
for preservation. To those who have
read the former series Of Mr.. Arthur's
Temperance Tales, it need not be said
that the forthcoming series will be not
only deeply interesting, but will be, cal
! cuIated TO do immense service TO the
great cause which they arc designed to
| promote Like the "Slx Nights with
the Washingtonians," the subject will be
drawn from real life, and it will be the
object OF the Author to depict the hor-
rors Of drunkenness in all its varied &
appalling forms, as exhibited in differ
emit. classes and conditions Of society,
as well as TO show the remedial means
which Temperance associations furnish
In accomplishing this object, Mr.. Ar
thur will bring to his aid the same n
cute observation; the same truthful de
| lineation, the same clearness Of nara
tive, and the same lofty morality, which
have marked his former productions
and it may be confidently predicted that
through the influence he will thus ex
erclse, many an inebriate will be rescued
from the fangs of the destroyer.
The price of these Tales is purpose
| ly made very low, that they may b.
brought within the reach Of all persons
and il is confidently hoped that all VIII
desire to see the Temperance caus
flourish will aid in their circulation:
