THE NATIONAL ERA WASHINGTON d. c., NOVEMBER 25 1852

LIST in full force, have, as regards the rights of
these people and of their master, made them
absolutely free; and that not merely by the
legal effect of the repeating statute, but by the
clear and deliberate intention of the Legisla-
ture 1t is impossible to make this more clear
than it is by the mere language and evident
objects of the two acts
lt was, however, insisted on the argument
that the words imported introduced or
brought into this State" in the LIST section of
the Revised Statutes, meant only introduced
or brought" for the purpose of remaining here
so they did undoubtedly when the Revised
Statutes were passed for an express exception
followed in the 9th section, giving that mean
ing to the lst And when the Legislature af-
terward repealed the 9th section, they entirely
removed that meaning, leaving the first section,
and intending to leave it, to mean what its
own explicit, and unreserved, and unqualified
language imports
Not thinking myself called upon to treat this
case as casust or legislator, have endeavor-
ed simply to discharge my duty as Judge in
Interpreting and applying the laws as | find
them Did not the law seem to me so clear,
might feel greater regret that | have been
obliged to dispose so hastily of Il case involving
such important consequences.
My judgment u.s. that the eight cOiored per-
sons mentioned IN the Writ be discharged.
Upon the conclusion of the paper, the alleg-
ed slaves were set free amid the reclamation
of large concourse people who had gather
