The SLAVE CASE IN THE SUPREME Court.
The facts in the case of bred Scott VS.. John
F. Sanford of New York, now before the U S.
Supreme court at Washington, are that Scott,
slave In Missouri, was taken by his master,
an officer in the army, to Rock Island, Illinois,
and after living there some years taken back
to st. Louis. The negro now claims his free
dom as the representative of his master estate,
on the grounds, that being taken into free
state, as well as to territory consecrated to
freedom by the Missouri compromise, he be-
came free, and that his subsequent return to a
slave state did not restore the right OF possess
sion to his former owner. The following are
tine main points of universal public interest
presented in the case and expected to be set
tied by the decision of the court =
First. Whether a free black man is cti-
zen of the United States, so as to be compe-
tent to sue in the courts OF the United States.
Second. Whether a slave carried voluntari-
ly with his master to his home, is free man by
virtue of such temporary residence; and,
Thirdly, Whether the eighth section Of the
Missouri act of 1920, prohibiting slavery north
of latitude SO degrees 30 minutes, is constitu-
tional or not.
1t is not requisite that all these points shall
be reviewed and decided by the court III dis.
posing Of the case presented to it. The judges
may conhne themselves to single one, or
avoid all by disposing Of the plaintiff on some
minor and technical question. But it is APP
pretended that the pro-slavery majority Of
the court, unless controlled by re lsons of tenn
porary political expediency, win seize the &C.
casion to judciously nationalist slavery by de.
nying the right Of Congress to exclude it from
the territories, or the power Of the free states to
prevent the institution from practically invad-
ing their own borders. Under these circum-
stances the result of tho suit excites much in
tercst aud even anxiety. Some wonder has
been excited, that the presentation Of the side
of the negro, which is that Of freedom, should
have been leftto Mr.. Montgomery Blair, alone,
who, though doubtless an able lawyer, is still
without national reputation, or that manifest
superiority of intellect and legal acumen,
which the importance of the issues presented
would certainly seem TO demand for that side
Upon the other side arc engaged two Of the
most noted and able lawyers OF the country,
Senator Geyer Of Missouri and Reverdy John
