quo ofthe alleged owner The Constitution de-
clarcs that 'the citizens each State shall be en-
titled to all privileges and immunities of cite
zens in ''the several States, and will any Penn
sylvanian deny his Ownsright to pass with his
property over and along the public highways of
Virginia. And if he will not, why are not the
rights of the citizens ofthe two States reciprocal
Your committee deny that Pennsylvania has
passed an unconstitutional law intcrdicting
peaceable and friendly intercourse between the
citizens of the several ssterStatcs of this Union
and refusing to permit their property to accom-
.pany their persons. The act of the Pennsylya-
MIA Legislature Of lst March, 1880, as explain
ed by the act of 10Th March, 1883 recognizes
the prior right of persons. with their domestic
slaves, to pass and soiourn in this State for six
months, and does not attempt to disturb that
right, but declares all slaves to be free who are
retained BIZ inhabitants, residents and intended
residents. Thus we have a clear distinction
made and kept up between the rights in the re-
spcct of passers through, sojourners and inhabit-
ants, residents and intended residents.
Then comes the act of the Sd of March, 1917,
which repeals so much of the act of 1880, .as
authorizes the masters or owners of slaves to
bring and retain such slaves within this Com
monweaIth for the period of six months, in revo-
lutionary servitude OF for any period OF tine
whatsoever Wcbelicvc that this act hngs the
wind closely. and sails between the rock oil the
Constitution on one hand, and the whirlpool of
its open population on the other. 1t does not
purport to take away from their masters the
domestic slave attending upon their persons as
they pass through this State. 1t does not pro-
hibit the bringing of them within it. 1t only
forbids the bringing and retaining of them there
1t may effect the slaves ofsojourners, but it
not reach persons of slaves in transit, because
they are not both brought and retained within
this Commonwealth. Anact of Assembly will
not be construed to be unconstitutional By i'm
plications, nor when a constitutional construc-
ton can be fairly given to it.
"This Commonwealth has properly abolished
Slavery within her own bounds, but beyond
them She hasno jurisdiction it. Our South
ern brethren are protected in their property by
a stronger buIwork than an act of the Pennsyl-
yania Legislature, and your committee cannot
consent to disgrace our Commonwealth in the
eyes of the civilized world by assuming to give
that which She has neither the power nor the in
ciination to take away.
"Your committee therefore recommend the
adoption of the following resolution:
'sRssoleed, Tint the committee be discharged
from the further consideration of the subject.
