Mr. Kellogg tho mover Of the BILL gave tho
views expressed by several legislatures and
the British Parliament in regard TO this subject,
who have entirely ebrogated the common law
rule in regard TO religious belief, and showed
satisfactorily by conclusive example, the neces-
sity OF adopting provisions similar to those in the
bill. The bill was further discussed by Messrs
Adams, Grandoy, and Everts in favor, and by
Messrs Packer and Barrett in opposition, insist
ing that it is ian imposition and mockery to admin
lister an oath to an Atheist. Mr. Barrett then Of
tered the following amendment by adding to
section LIST the following: no person who does
not believe in Supreme being, exercising
moral government over tie human race, shall be
required TO take the oath as a witness" Mr. Kcl
logg again asserted that an oath OF witness is
mere obligation to tell the truth Mr. Gilbert
wanted more time to consider this matter, which
all agreed is an innovation upon established Gus
tom, and moved tina, the House adjourn, which
was agreed to.

choose to take the ground that the Stale has no
right 10 pyotcci rRrEMrS who are arrested as

right There is then question Of ldic between

They differ toto carlo, and the courts should de.

word to our correspondent he tells us that
the jurisdiction Of US. Courts er'ends to all cas-
es arising under the Constitution and laws Of the
U. States. Certainly but we apprehend fcder-
al jurisdiction is not always Original md erclu-
size in fact it is seldom so--und can nerer be
exclusive against writ Of tsbeas corpus, except
when the privilege Of habels corpus is lawfully
suspended. The is a constitutional right which
Congress cannot abridgc.
The question really involved is one Of state
rights. Vermont has never conceded to the
save-h lder or his agent THE federal goycrnmcnt.l
the right to arrest freeman Of Vermont as
slave, and claims Tor may claim, if case arises, J
the power to discharge such freeman from arrest
on habeas corpus Vermont, through It's attorney,
might claim that such an arrest is not a case IN
der the Constitution. and her courts might so de-
eide, upon the verdict Of a jury that the person
arrested is not fugitive slave, aud on that
ground discharge him. If that is deemed to be
power not belonging 20 the state we suppose
somebody will take care TO arrest the case aud
carry it up 10 the Supreme Court ofthe u. S on
a writ Of error. That tribunal is the final one,
and we are constitutional Wings enough to be
content with decision by that body. This is
widely different from the South Carolina doc
