The Wheeling Bridge.

Conflict jri,rcen Mc Supreme Court
and CongreSs-We take the following
paragraph from letter of last Saturday.
Public attention will soon be called to the
remarkable conflict between the L. S. Su-
prcule Court and the legislative branch Of
the government. in the Wheeling bridge
case. The court, by decree at its rte se~-
sion, after rehearing Of the case, decreed
that the bridge should be removed a. an OBJ
struction to navigation, or elevated to q GER
tain height, and they allowed certain time
within which the bridge company should
comply with the terms Of the decree Con
gress, at the late session. and after the ad-
journmcnt Of court, constituted the bridge a
post road, with a view to save the bridge and
evade the decree. They undertake to legal
ize what the Judiciary has decided to be
nuisance. La February. the L. S. Marshal
will proceed to execute the decree. and sum-
mon a posse, and, if need be, call upon the
President for military aid The Governor
OF Virginia, on the other hand will resist the
execution of the decree and employ the
militia for that purpose There is clash
Of authority between coordinate branches Of
the government and in which States are
deeply interested on one side or the other.
