the decision Of Judge Kane, in the Wheel

this paper. Judge Kane has met the issue
boldly. He has taken the bull by the

practical .interpre tation. If the laws of
Virginia establish mans right to proper

vania has no power to say that the Virgin.
ian shall not have such property. 1t
would just be as legitimate for the laws OF
Pennsylvania to divest man Of his right
to his horse, OIL. his flour, or any chattel,
as to destroy his right to his slave proper
ty. The Southern man has invested his
means in such property, because OF his
choice and any law Of Pennsylvania
which can be construed as inealdatin9
that right, IS nothing less than lsgalizlng
robbery, rapine, and outrage. 1t is time

The whole is Of solid rock; the western
tunnel has been cut l704 feet; the work in
this end Of the tunnel has been more diff

tunnel, owing 10 the casing ia Of the earth,
and the large stream OF water encountered
there. Several portions of this end Of the
tunnel have been arehed with brick
During the last month II ieet have been
cut in both tunnels, leaving 1000 feet 10

rather staggering, 10 and To for some time,
he at last became suffi ien,s conscious
