that the bondage of the ISraelitrs was not to

We have no account of the Egyptians tor

TAXING 4 SLAVE TO EuRoPE.-We learn
from the New Orleans Times that righteous
decision has been made in the case Of a slave
in The District Court Of that city. In 1886
a Madame Pigneguy went to France, and
took with her her slave, Ansene alias Cameo.
After their return the woman remained some
time in Madame Pigneguy's service; bui has
recently sued for her freedom and $1,000
Wages. The court decided that her liberty
be granted TO Ansene, and condemned the de-
PENDANT in costs. This is the second deci-
sion Of the kind that has been made in New
Orleans. We wish that some slave who has
been brought to the North would make a
similar attempt. The decision in such a
case ought TO be the same, but we doubt
whether the protecting care Of the ConstiIu-
ton would not be thought by the Southern
Courts to be a sufficient guaranty for the
rights of the Shareholders wherever it extends.
The South has more respect for the freedom
of France, than Of New York.-&andard.
