The "Black laws" OF Indiana were
repealed at the late session OF the
Legislature of that State. 1t was
done unintentionalIy, by the passage
of general repeating law, repeating
all laws OF the State not enacted at
the same session, with certain excep-
tions. The blacks are now on the
same footing with the whites, as to
giving testimony, and in certain
other respects. Some Of the Indiana
papers think the old laws will be re-
enacted at the next session.

from desire TO accommodate those who could

which, whatever might be the detention, they
would reach San Frenclsco sooner than by any
other line. Unforeseen difficulties, aud the preya-
lence of fever at Rio deJaneiro al the time, pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama as soon
