believe, without due process Of law--without
having his rights passed upon and determined
by jury Of bis peers We think it essential
that his right should be maintained by all
courts and all tribunals, aud for the reasons
above given we must affirm tho order made in
this case, dischargipg the relator."
We hail this decision Of highly respect
able State Court, as evidence of tendency in
public sentiment towards healthy state on
this subject. AS the United States Court is at
present constituted, it is the agent Of the slave
holding power, and must DO expected TO con-
form in lis decisions to the viii Of that power.
But the judicial opinion Of the country at
large is rapidly changing. Judge Hoar, in his
recent charge, clearly indicated his opinion of
the unconstitut;onalitv of the act; many emil
nent ex- Judges, like Hornblower, Of New Jar-
sey, and Hutchinson, Of Vermont, and lawyers
Of the highest rank, like Charles G. Loring
and Robert Rantoul jr,, havo held the Same
opinion.
Encouraged by this bold opinion of the Wis
cousin Court, wo cannot doubt that before long
the Northern courts generally will come to the

The in6del suggestion that theSraccs Of men
have different origins, allowing it to be true,
by no means proves difference Of kinds. The
Almighty might have created several different
pairs, having the same organization, morally,
intellectually, and physically; and diversities
of color, hair, and features, adapted to the Sow
eral climates which man inhabits, cannot de-
stroy the essential unity and identity Of the
race. We see that the different races Of men,
the extremes even, as they are generally re-
garded, will propagate together, and that their
issue will 60 on Indefinitely propagatiDg. This
shows an identity Of organization. II shows
that the negro is nearer to the white man than

But it is like reasoning to prove an axiom.
The thing is selfevident, tina. the negro has
every claim to manhood, in every respect, if not

has. Hc has q conscience, q faculty Of reason
ing, Of reckoning, Of imagination. He reads,
writes, makes speeches, buys and sells, and
manufactures. In fact, man must be an I'M
blushing, oold-hearted atheist as destitute Of
truth as Of goodness, who can deny the hui

imagine that bigotry and prejudice may 80
stupefy an ignorant and imbeoile understand

Allowing that the negro is less intellectual
than the Caucasian, does 1t follow that he
should be his slave? Should all men of conn
mon minds be the slaves Of the few superior
minds? Have the more educated, intellectual,
and mentally active people Of the free States o
right to enslave and trample on their Southern
brethren, equally endowed BY nature, but not
equally favored by circumstances The cham
pions of Slavery must either give an afirma-
tive answer to these questions, or abandon tho
unchristian doctrine Of d superiority Of race.
