The FUGITIVE Slave Case,

The decision Of the court in this case is thus
stated in the National Intelligencer.
Wharton Jones, plaintiff, u.s. John Van Zdndt
ON certificate Of division in opinion between
the Judges of the circuit court of the United States
for Ohio. Mr.. Justice Woodbury. delivered the
opinion of this court, that under 4th section of
the act of 10Th February, 1893, respecting fugi-
tves from justice, and persons escaping from the
service Of their master, on a charge of harboring
and concealing iugitives from labor, that notice
in writing by the claimant or his agent, or gene
raj notice to the public in newspaper, is not
necessary; that clear proof of the knowledge of
the defendant that he knew the colored person
was slave and fugitive from labor is sufficient
to charge him with notice; that claim of the
fugitive from labor need not prccede or accompa-
ny the notice. that any overt act so marked in
its character as to show an intention, to elude
the vigilance of the master or his agent, and is
calculated to attain such an object, is harboring
of the fugitive within the STATUTE and that the
said act of Congress of 18th February 1893, is
not repugnant either to the Constitution of the
United States, or to the ordinance of Congress
adopted July, 1887, ''for the government Of the
Territory of the United States northwest of the
river of Ohio"
