LEGAL DECISIONS.

IaspOrtanf decision.-l'he Supreme court OF 4,
rors, at New Haven, Conn.,, have decided, in ef.
feet, that the prop-ietors of the lost steamboat
Lexington, burnt some years since in Long Island
Sound, responsible for all the freight on board
at the time of her destruction, although notices
were posted up in the boat, and inserted in the bills
of lading, that all freight was to be at the risk Of
the owners.
Important decision.-Judgc Mullenphy, Of Mo-,
has decided that coored people are /" "ciiizens -
that the term citizen with usis equivalent to sub-
ject" as used under the British constitution, and
that, Of course, coIored person has right to
move in any State he p!eases, all local laws to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
Important decision. Wharton Jones, VS. John
Van Zandt.-CAsE.-This was an action brought
under the 4,h section of the Act of Congress of
February II, 1898, for "harboring and conceal.
ing certain negroes from whom services was due
to the plaintiff.
1t appeared in evidence that during the month
of April, 1912, nine slaves, the property of tho
plaintiff left their masters residence in Kentucky,
and were the following days found in the posses
sion of the defendant, near Palmyra, in Warren
county, Ohio, who had them in wagon and was
conveying them Northward. Seven Of these ne
groes were taken from his possession by two men
named Jefferman and Hargraves, who acted with
out authority from the plaintiff, and were by them
conveyed to Covington, KY, where they were de-
tained until they were reclaimed by the plaintiff
The other two negroes escaped; ono of them vol
UNFAIRLY returned to his master in Kentucky after
a few days, and the other one has never been re-

The defendant relied on the want of proof CT
notice to him, that these negroes were slaves in
Kentucky, and the absence of a claim by the
owner, his agent or attorney, as appears to be re-
quired by the act of Congress.

Tae Arms. BM.--This is a bill before slss En-.
glish parliament to disarm the People AZ frslnnd.
1t forblds any person in Ireland from having in
posse ssion arms of any kind without regular
permit, and Furnishes violation of the law with
Imprisonment or transportation. 1t is evident that
under existing circumstances, no peruAn ~ill he
granted to any repealer, as the design is to take
from that class of people all power Of defence in
case resort to force should be necessary.si This
bill was vehementIy opposed in the house Of com.
mons, and upon grounds which wo deem substan-
t!aI. It was contended. that, by thus depsiving
the people of Ireland Of all defensive weapons,
they were placed at the mercy Of bandiati, tobe
robbed or murdered at pleasure; and that, in the
present excited state of the country, violence Of
evory kind was to be dreaded by the una rmed
Peasantry. II is certainly IN arbitrary meas sure;
