THE ROCK ISLAND BRIDGE CASE

In his decision of this case, Judge Mclean has laid
down sevcral. important principles that will hereafter
be much relied upon in establishing the rights of rail
roads Ia bridge n%avignb!e rivers
The Bridge Company, assuming that Rock Island
had been abandoned for military purposes, and act
ins upon the authority Of the act of incorporation OF
tho State and the act oi Congress granting 10 rail
road and turnpike companies the right of way through
the public lands, took possession Of Rock Island, 81
inr us the right of way was Concerned. The United
States sought Ia d~isposscss the company, upon the
ground that the island WAS still held for military pur-
poses, and, further, that the bridge was an obstruction
IL navigation.
Judge Mclean decided in substance that the island
had ceased 10 be held Tor military purposes; that the
entry Of the company Wits fully authorized by the
nct Of Congress granting the right of way through
public lands; and that the State, by virtue of the
RIGHT of eminent domain, possessed tho power al
granting TO corporations the right conferred by the
Legislature Of the State upon the Rock 1slard Ridge
Company and Chicago aud Rock Island Rail Road
Company.
We have already stated the ground upon which il
was decided that the bridge was no: {" be considered
as an distraction to the navigation of the river
namely, that rail roads had become highways IN Sninl
thing The same sclise rs rivers; neither could he sui
fcred iu l,ccoinc u permanent obstruction To the other
Llt each must Weld something to the other, accord
in. to the demands OF the public convenience nnd the
necessities of commerce..

WHERE TIE C.ARCASE is THERE WILL EE

LIE IL SnE"p "hSDS-
The New York Herald, it is understood, has taken
up George Law for tho Presidency. This is natural
Law has money and Bennett acts upon The qua pr"
gro principle. The candidate, from hs pre-emincnt
qualifications, is worthy Of his organ. The organ,
from its prc-enlnont unscrupu.ousncss is worthy Of
the candidate.
Law, ii is said, ia the favurite of Bartlett, the Pre-
silent Of tho Philadelphia cluscd-door concern, and
Saunders, Of London Consulate memory, his chief
wire-mover. 1t was under the management of this
renowned eX-functlonary, it is believed, that the sc-
ccssion Of Wilson y Company occurred. The mo
dos ope,uRdi is this: To lavish unhoundel praise ON
MIR. Wise and to abuse Mr.. Hunter. in order To divide
and distract the Democrats OF the South; and then Ia
narrow the contest down ia. Law and Seward, and
force the slave States to accept the former as the les
ser evil, In the event Of success, Saunders To bc
Secretary OF State and Bennett Minister to France
This is what is talked of, with the utmost earncstncss
in the Law circle, par ercrRtRrr, q: New York. 1t mus
, be understood that Bartlett is the brother-iii-la" o
Saunders, aud was under his control at Philadelphia
Prentice, the Yankee editor of the Louisville Jour
nal, ia the intimate friend of both, and was constant.
closeted with the latter, while the Council WIS deli
beratins in the city of ~brotherly love. Had q nomi
nation been made by that body, Law was certain.
We can scarcely realize the notion, with all the ab
surdities of the day in view, that any one but an i'm
beetle could seriously think Of making a great BOBBY
who can but little more than write his name
President, whatever the amount of money he possess

IMPRISONMENT or AN AMERICAN AT
CAILAD.

There has been quite a ~slnubhle going on in Calao
recently between our Minister, Mr.. Clay, and the fe.
ruvian authorities, relative TO the captain OF TIE
American ship John Cunmins 1t appears that the
crew ri this vessel mutined i'll port. proceeded 10 the
captains cabin and took possession OF all The wca-
p"ns they could find: then. headed by the b~oatswain,
The captain cautioned hem against the procedure,
ahu ON ihrIr persisting lie brought up q doublc-hnr-
relied shot gun, which he had concealed in his state
room, ANA Tired III lte boat, killing the b%oatswain.-
Ar. Clay demanded his rclraec, which was refused.
lie Then ordered up the flag ship independence, the
appearance OF which vessel induced the authorities to
SuGcufhp, ana Release their prisoner. Soon after, the
sooner had she LEFT Ca.lao than the authorities again
seized upon their victim, ard threw him into prison,
MIR. Clay sent again after the Independence, and at
last accounts she was on her way back to Cnllao,
Commodore Merwin being determined to let the good
folks of Peru smell Yankee powder if they should
give him any trouble.

As IT Is.

The New York Herald holds the following sensible
and correct views oh the slavery question:
".AIl This mock philanthropy about human freedom,
liberty. AMI Tic horrors of Southern Slavery. IS mere
stu.l, aud nonsense. The real question is Union or
DiS,minm. The African race, whether ~ slaves in
the South, or free culorcl Americans" in tho North.
occupy the position, socially and politically, ri IN in
ieri"r race, and properly ~, aud supply because the
great Creator has made them m inferior race. In
The same community with the white man, the black.
ensiavcd nr rrnareipate,l, must forever occupy IL de-
graded position. In n community purely African.
even the civilized black rrlapscs again TO African in
dvlcnce and barbarisla. See llayti: see Jama:ca.-
Stop the supplies of chris:ianizrd recruits from our
Southern States to Liberia, and that Republic, IN tho
space of two or three generations, would probably
degenerate into 4 petty Kingdom of cannibals, with Il
savage beast rs their ruler, horrible and bloody as the
King of Dahomey. The three millions Of the Atri-
can race. the most enlightened and hnppisst in the
world, arc the three million slaves Of the Southern
States.

CORRECTION OF AN ERROR.

In the Enquirer of the 81 instant, there liz a short
article signed .Civi>:" the article /. headed, "llcnry
a. WISE The object nf "Civis' Is to show,
that the Hon. Henry \. Wire IL '"f'gt"r to the
office of President Of the United States; and he
proceeds 10 make good hs l"siIinn, hy quoting that
part ui the Constitution OF Virginia. which says, the
Chief Executive power Of this Commonwealth shall
be vested in IL Governor. He shHll hold his office for
the term of four Years, 10 commence on The irt day Of
January next succeeding his election, ana shall he III
eligible 10 the same office Tor the term next succeed
ing that for which he was elected, and 10 any "ther
OfFcr turing has !rTn IF Srrricc."
"Civis," | doubt not, is n gentleman, and a man of
good lcurt, but | can shy much for his head, II he Is
sincere in this objection I" the eligibility of MIR. Wise
to the Presidency. The Constitution OF Virginia, in
the article quoted, is prescribing, nsi I may well do, the
qualifications of Tie Gortrnor n Virginia; and, l
,resmnc, if Mr.. Wise were elected President of the
United States, aud should r."m riHrianny qualify AS
such, that it would ~disqunliiy him 10 be longer GO-
,cyaoy OC Virginia. But where. pray, "Civis,' did the
Convention or the Legislature of lirSin'n get the
right To prescribe the qualifications of the F,ts'dc"t
of the iMticd Suites, l presume Virginia has no
more right quo nd this matter, than any other State Of
the Union; and suppose the State Of New York, or OF
Massachusetts, were to say the Governors elect oi
Virginia shall be eligible Gf ~elected) to hold the Of
fee Of President OF the United States, presume their
voices would be quite rs potential and legal in the
