surprising the failure of certain Clcrgymcn aud
Magistrates in this vicinity, to comply with our law
upon this subject, must arise from their not being
aware Of its existence, take the liberty of quoting
from the 66ih Chapter Of tho Compiled Statutes of
this state, rs follows
SEC. H. Every justice and minister Of the gospel
shall make and keep record Of all marriage sucm-
ni1cd before him which record shall be in the
form following

make and keep record Of all such marriages, which
record shall be in the form above prescribed.

such marriage to the clerk of the town in which the
marriage shall be solemnzcd or where the intcn-
tion of marriage vas published, within sixty days
after such marriage.

Ma Editor On reading an article in the New
York Daily Times of the 10th ult., Of which the
following is extract, my attention drawn, as
it has often been before the neglect in this place,
similar to that complained of by the writer of that
article,
1--WE respect and love the Clergy, but for one
thing we are ashamed of them. There is law
auirng them to make returns to the City Inspector
Of all marriages that they solemnlc. 1t is simple
duty,-altogether too simple for any man with an
of public spirit in him grumble about per
forming. But it is generally omitted that the
Inspectors report is vitiated, and, far this
item goes, is utterly worthless The reasons why
the law should be cunfoncd are manifold, will
stop to re-state them. For the reasons why in
teligent should refuse to perform what is e.
quired of them, we are indeed, at loss"
The convenience, may say, the necessity, of a re-
cord of marriages is so obvious, it to me,
to need reasons in detail for strict and faithful
compliance with the existing law Of our State upon
the subject. Proof Of the marriage relation often
becomes necessary in adjusting titles to property,
cal and personal, in prosecuting certain class of
claims for pensions and in other cases which might
be mentioned, and always in suits for divorce. The
simplest aud way Of obtaining this proof where
there is record ofthc marriage, is to procure
tilted copy Of such record. Our Statute expressly
makes such copy prcsumptiye proof Of the fact,
But, often, on application being made for such
copy, nonei found and the party is subjected to the
necessity OF searching for the requisite proof, in
remote Iegon, it may be, where there happeus
to be- scme living eyewitness of tho event desired to
be proved, or ot re'rrtng to still more iucun-
vcnieHt and Unsatisfactory mode of proof, Persons
have often made i"gui'ics in hi. office Tor sucn H.
cords, and c''"""d much disappointment ON hcirr

members Of the supreme Bench, in view of
the discrepancy of opinion which has charac-
terizcd all other dcc sions wherein the uues-
ton had been raised and argued in view Of
the fugitive character of the power here
claimed by Congress, leaping from article to
article, from section to section, and from
clause to clause. hUving now over grant,
then over compact, nutterint now around
an implication, then around an incident to
lind whcrcOn it may rest its foot IN view Of
the alarm which has lied upon many Of the
states in consequence Of the enormous power
which it has called upon Congress to assume
in its behalf and the dr"p wounds which 1t
seeks to inllict upon the rights and sovereign
ty OF the States and upon the great principles
OF human freedom; in view of all this. are
we not justified in asking of the Supreme
Court Of the United States to review their de-
clsion as the majority pronounced it in the
case OF Prigg vs.. Commonwealth Of Penn.
The Marshal, by writ ofccrtiorari, carried
the case to the supreme Court Of the State,
before whom it was argued on behalf Of Mr.
