the Fugitive slave Law Judlslaliy sulIlnsd

We insert to-day the decision of Judge CoSK-
LING of the United States District Court, for
northern New York. in the case of DANIEL the
fugitive slave recently arrested at Buffalo. Mr.
Smith, the commissioner, had decided that Dan
TEL should be given up, and granted certificate
to that effect; but application was made to
Judge CohKLISG ia effect for a writ of habsas
errpus, which was granted, and the fugitive lib
Grated on the ground that the material provisions
of the Fugitive slave law were prospective, and
hence did not apply to those who had escaped
from service before the law was passed, which
was DANIELS case.
We commend this decision to our readers,
who will see that the great object of the law,
which was the restitution of fugitives before its
passage, has been eficctualy defeated, as we
think, by mere technical quibble. But it is
probable the decision will be observed BY the
other Northern judges, and we ask what chance
there is for such an amendment of the law as
will render it effectual even before the courts !
AS for its practicabiity for the recovery of fugi-
tives in general we entertain the opinion already
frequently expressed, and so frequently con
firmed by events.
So much for the Compromise
