1t is worthy Of remark, that several Of our North
crn Legislatures avang themselves of the decision
of the Supreme Court, and under the deep excite
ment produced by the agitation of the Wimet Pro.
viso, passed laws imposing obstacles to the exccu-
ton of the provisions of the Constitution for the
restoration of fugitive slaves. am sorry, very sor-
ry, to state that Pennsylvania is among this number
BY our act OF Sd Of March, 1s47, the of our
public jails is denied for the safe custody of the
fugtive and the jaer who shall offend against this
provision is deprived of his office, and is punisha-
BILE with heavy fine and disqualification ever
again to hold similar office!
The two principal objections urged against the
Fugitive Slave Law are, that it will promote kdnap-
ping; and that it does not provide trial by iury
for the fugitive in the State to which he has es-
capped.
The very same reasons may be urged, with equal
force, against the Act and yet it existed Tor
more than half a century without encountering any
such objections.
In regard to kidnapping, the fears of the aetators
are altogether groundless. The law requires that
the fugitive shall be taken before the dge or COM
missioner. The master must there prove, to the
satisfaction OF the magistrate the identity Of the flu.
gtive that ne is the masters property and has cs-
capped from his service. Now, l ask, would kid
napper ever undertake such task? Would he SUI

DIOCESE OF CoSNECTICCT.-At special meeting
of the Trustees Of Trinity College, the Goth ult,
Mr.. Edward Graham Dawes elected Professor of
the Greek language and Literature which appoint
mcnt he has accepted, and will enter upon his duties
immediately.
Prof. Dawes is by birth and early training North
Carolinan. His classical education he received at
Harvard University, where he has graduated with
distinguished honor, and where he had also compile
ted his legal studies intending to enter upon the pro-
fession of law in Baltimore. Having been especially
distinguished Greek scholar, and possessing a
peculiar fondness for classical pursuits he has bec
induced to turn aside from the Law to academcal
life and we informed it is his expressed inten-
ton to devote himself exclusively and permanently
to the profession he has now chosen.
Professor Dawes comes to Trinity with the very
highest reputation for elevated religious charac-
ter, as we'll as for remarkably fine moral and social
qualities. Of experience in teaching he has not had
much, we understand, yet enough to prove that he
has no lack either Of aptness Of fondness for that
employment.
We congratulate Trinity College for having Sc
cured for the chair of Greek, both good scholar
and good Churchnan-a gentlemen of refined
sentiments and manners es we'll as of classical taste
and enthusiasm. We trust he will prove an able
and efficient teacher.
Professor Dawes is a young man, and has yet to
win his academical reputation. But it is the policy
of our Colleges generaly-and we think, on the
whole, wise pocy-to I'LL their vacant professor-
al chairs with young men-young men of talent,
taste and diligence whose subsequent lives and
ly to become permanently identified with the insti-
tuition to which they attached.
In the election OF Professor Dawes, Trinity College
has given new proof that it is mere State sec
tional establishment but is, what it claims to be, an
Institution for the whole country. Calendar.
