Madison Correspondence.
MADISON, July l, 1853.

MADISON, July l, 1898.
have a great desire TO communicate to your
readers something interesting, but do assure you
nothing of that nature has occurred or occurring
here. The Assembly has done considerable in
the way Of legislation but nne-tenths of it is of
purely local character. There was a bill.b"fore
the body. providing for making the Supreme Court
rotary, that is, having it held during the year at
four different places, viz Madison, Mineral Point,
Milwaukee and Oshkosh; which, after consdera-
bic discussion, was rejected. An attempt was
made to repeal that Resolution which required the
House TO attend upon the Court while in session ;
but the attempt failed by vote of 26 to 81 SO
the members still have time to enjoy themselves
A bill has been passed through the House, trans
ferring the Fox aud Wisconsin River Improve
meRt to company. The bill provides that the
company shall have all the franchises and proper
~, &c, belonging to the work, and shall pay all
existing debts and complete the Improvement
My opinion is, it is good move for the State and
the Improvement both; relieving the former of
much trouble, perplexity and debt, and insuring
the completion of the latter.
To-day the House had before it bill TO author
tion of lOaning the credit of the county in aid of
the Kenosha and Bcloit Rail Road. This bill
provides that the county, on an affirmative vote of
che electors, may issue its bonds to an amount not
exceeding SlO0 900 in favor of said road that the
company shall issue its bonds to the county in an
equal amount; that the county shall have mort
gagged TO it, from 10 to 90 miles of said road upon
which ,bara shall no no Dr;or hrapca axcco1
ing &c. 900 per miles that it shall not be required to
issue any bonds until at least five miles of the road
mortgaged to it, completed ready 10 receive
the iron, and thereafter need not issue its bonds
any faster than at the rate of five thousand dollars
per mile, IS the road mortgaged to them, is COM
pleted as aforesaid. This, as your readers will
perceive, is very fair bill, and think, would be
objected to by no one except those who are OPP
posed to loaning the county credit in any shape.
The House attached amendment TO the bill on
motion of McKisson, excepting the Western As
sembly district from the operation of the bill
What will be the action of the Senate, and the
subsequent action of the House, remains to be
seen.
The Impeachment Trial drags, still its slow
length along and is beginning to grow uninterest-

with rebutting testimony, and will probably use

Fugitive slave Case.

+za CINCINNATI, August II.
A negro man named George McQnery, alias
Wash, was brought to this city last night, from
piaua. as fugitive slave, claimed by Henry Mil
Ter, of Kentucky The colored people gathered
in large numbers around the Gait House, where
the Fugitive was guarded by the U. s. Marshal,
and posse of police. They exhibited much feel
ing, but dispersed on being assured that the pris-
oner should have a trial to-day
This morning the Fugitive was brought before
Judge Mclean of the u. s. Court. The case
was partially heard and postponed until to-mor-
row. The evidence was decidedly in favor of
Miiier's claim, the fugitive having confessed be-
ing his slave.
Portage sentinel. [volume] (Ravenna, Ohio) 1845-1854, 1853-08-24
CINcINNTI, August, IS.

After reviewing the facts and evidence in the
case, the Judge decided that the testimony was
conclusive in favor of the claimant. In answer
to objections raised by the cousel for the slave,
it was decided that the Fugitive Slave laws of
1894 and 1850 were constitutional; that no State
had power to pass law preventing fugitives from
being delivered up to those to whom they owed
service; that no proof was necessary before the
Supreme Court that slavery existed in the State
from whence the fugitive escaped. as it should be
taken for granted that the Supreme Judge knew
the laws Of all the States could not be compelled
to give up fugitives by law of Congress, if the
provisions in the Constitution did not do SO; that
slavery can only exist in the slave States, said
law not being an infringent ON the Constitution,
the free States are bound to recognize it in dev-
ering up fugitive slaves, from these States, upon
clear proof that they are such. The decision oc-
c,nies two columns in the Commercial.
