of whatever State the claimant may take him 10,
and to the fororn hope Of getting his case before
these COurts This is the monstrOus Federal
usurpatiou against which the Massachusetts, Per-
.onsl Liberty Law is aimed-a usurpatiOn for
which it il only possible to apologize by first mutt
stnp and nisquoting the Constitution Of the United
states. Daniel Webster set the example of this
mutIaton and misquotatiOn in bis speech in favor
Of the bill, and, though public attention re-
peatedy called to the subject On that occasion, the
concoctors Of the Message find it necessary to re-
peat the same cheat Fraud in itselfis base enough
but fraud and petty larceny combined are odd rec
concentrations for seat upon the bench. to which
which Mr.. Gushing asPires.
Another Misrepresentation Of the law, put for;
ward BY the Message as basis of argument, re-
lates to the prohibition Of Slavery in the territory
northwest Of the Ohio. The Message, at the
commencement of its apology for the Ksnsas-Ne-
brasks bill makes in reference to that subject the
following statement:
The ordinance for the Government Of the Ter
ritory por4h.west Of the River Ohio had con-
tanned provision, which prohibited the Of ser.
vile labor therein, subject to the condition Of
the extradition Of fugtyes from service due in
any other par of the United States. Subse-
quently to the adoption of the Constitution, this prov
sion ceased to remain law; for Its operation a.
81 Oh was absolutely supes d by tie Constitution.
But the recollection Of the fact excited the zeal of
social propa ganGisn in sections of the Conedera
ton; and when a second State-that of Missouri
came TO be formed in the Territory of louisiana propo-
siton was made to extesd TO the latter Territory the
restriction originally applied to the country situated
between the rivers Ohio and Mississippi"
The evident and intended implication of this pas
sage plainly is that from the adoption of the Con-
sttution down to the adoption of the Missouri
Compromise in 1920, there was no law of the
United States in force prohibiting Slavery in any
of the Territories. But, without stopping to dis
cuss tie question Of the effort of the adoption OF
the Federal Constitution on the legal binding force
of tile ordinances of the Continental Congress-
though Dir. Pierce may be ignorant, Mr. Cushing
must bs. well aware, that one of the acts of the
first Congress reenacted in express terms the per-
petual prohibition of Slavery northwest of the
Ohio. So drops the pretense and so is exposed
the willfl falsehood of putting forward the Mis-
souri, Compromise as having been the first act Of
Congress in which was contained any restriction
on Slavery in the Territories.
Poor Mr.. Pierce He reminds us Of nothing but
the miserable cat in the fable in the hands of the
ruthless monkey, that cared nothing whose hands
were burnt in raking his (the monkey's) chestnuts
out of the fire.

The Cattle market yesterday exhibited the effects
of the great snow storm upon railroad Transports
lion. as well az how dependent we have become up
ON this mode of conveyance for our weekly supply.
Until after three o'clock, there were only 500 bull
locks in the pens, while there were over thou
sand head in the cars, that were delayed on the
roads. One of the Harlem trains reached Forty
fourth street after two O'Clock, with about 200 of
600 head on the road, due in the morning or night
before. The others were expected some time after
that The 800 in the pens had been previously
nearly all sold at ii and ~ cents generally for all
that were fit to kill. The lowest number in the
pens any day last year was s5i, and the average of
each market day was 1873, and the weekly av.
erage in the city, 1866 bullocks. 1t is in the
memory of some Of the still in the cattlesellng
business, of time when eight hundred beeyes
would glut the market. In speaking Of the small
number of bulocks on sale yesterday hale and
hearty gentleman present who is still engaged in
the active business of life as very large packer of
beef and pork, related an anecdOte very illustra-
tive of the growth of New-York and the condition
of markets now and forty.fye years ago. He was
then engaged as drover, and ON his way 10 the
city met some of the principal drOvers at West
Farms in Westchester County, where ii was ascer-
tanned there would be 500 beeyes in market that
week. 1t was also known that others We're ex-
pected from Duchess County, and it was agreed
to hire an express to ride back that night, "with-
out sparing horseaesh,' to stop these cattle from
coming down, as greater number than eight hun
dred, it was thought, would so slut the market
that prices would be ruineus to owners. At that
time ten cents would have been ruinous TO buyers.
Now, nothing fit to eat sells SO low as that These
drOvers were alarmed at the prospect of having
800 beeves for sale in the city at one time. Now,
butchers are alarmed at the short supply occa.
stoned by report that three times that number in
sweek, or twice eight hundred in single dsy, are
al that will be offered.
