The Railroad Robbers.

From the Mansfield Herald, we cut an
item relative to the dongs of the gang of
Railroad robbers lately arrested along the
line Of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and
Chicago Road. The Herald says:
1t appears that large proportion of
the gang have been employees of the road.
Members of the gang would be stationed
along the whole line of the road. between
sta ations, and as the train came along, the
confederate on the train would roll off a
bale of muslin, cloth or such goods as
could be most available. These goods
were divided among members if desired,
or otherwise sent to some of their depots
established in the West for the disposal oil
their goods. and the proceeds divided
among them.
Nor were their acts those of robbery
alone.-They stopped not at MURDER
to secure their booty. By them was
Whitney murdered at Loudonvile, and
Moore almost killed at Crestline. The
murderer of Whitney, lis said, il among
the arrested, now in Wooster Jail.
Large numbers are still watched by
the secret police, who know them to be
long to the gang, and only wait for suf
fcient legal evidence to justify their ar
rest.--Ricbland county appears to con
tribute its quota to the gang. In its rank.
are found men who would never hav.
been suspected of being capable of {
crime

A NOBLE DEED.-Some months since,
poor German neighbor of Gerrit Smith
was charged with murder. A singular
combination of unfavcrable circumstances
induced general belief that he was
guilty, and the public excitement against
him was very strong. Mr.. Smith visit
ed the suspected man in Jail. and became
convince that he was innocent. In the
face of hostile public sentiment, he vol
unteered his services as counsel for the
German, spent nearly thousand dollars
from his own purse in collecting evidence,
and argued his case before the jury. By
his untiring exertions, the dark cloud of
unfavorable circumstances was cleared up,
and the innocence of his client made man
ifest, not only to the court and jury, but
to the public. Mr.. Smith, with charac-
teristic benefcence, crowned his magma
nimity by giving the poor German small
farm and five hundred dollars in money
Nobleness like this is its own praise and
its own reward. We wish that it was
less rare.

DR.. Kane was born in Philadelphia in
the year 1922, and had accordingly just

graduated as Doctor of Medicine at the
University of Pennsylvania in 1843.--

The Dred Scott Case Decided---The Mis-
souri, Compromise Unconstitutional.

The Dred Scott Case Decided---The Mis-.
souri, Compromise Unconstitutional.
WASHINGTON, March 6.
The opinion of the Supreme Court in
the Dred Scott case was delivered to-day
by Chief Justice Taney. 1t was full
and elaborate statement Of the views o.
the Court. They decided the following
all-important points !;
l.. That negroes, whether slaves Of
free, that is, men Of the African race, are
not citizens Of the United States by the
Constitution.
9. That the Ordinance Of 1897 had nc
independent constitutional force or legal
effect subsequent to the adoption Of the
Constitution, and could not operate, oi
itself, to confer freedom or citizenship
within the Northwest Territory, on me-
groes, not citizens by the Constitution
8. That the provision of the act of $50
commonly called the Missouri Compro-
mise, so far as it undertook to exclude ne
gro slavery from. and communicate free
dom and citizenship to negroes in the
Northern part ofthe country obtained by
the Louisiana cession, was Legislative
act exceeding the powers of Congress,
and void, and of no legal effect to that
end.
In deciding these main points. the Su-
preme Court determined the following in
cidental points:
/. The expression Territory and 9th
er property Of the Union' in the Consti.
tuition, applies in terms only to such ter
ritory as the Union possessed at the time
of the adoption of the Constitution.
9. The rights of the citizens of the
United States emigrating to- any federal
territory, and the power of the federal
government there, depend ON the general
provisions of the Constitution which de-
fines in this, as in all other respects, the
powers of Congress.
3. AS Congress does not possess pow
er itself to make enactments relative to
persons or property OF citizens of the
United States, in federal territory, other
than such as the Constitution confers, SO
it cannot consitutionally delegate any
such powers to Territorial government
organized by it under the Constitution.
4. The legal condition of a slave in the
State of Missouri is not affected by the
temporary sojourn of such slave in any
other State, but on his return his condi.
tion still depends on the laws of Missouri
as 'hR plaintiff was not a citizen of Mis-.
SO u4f, and therefore could not sue in the
Courts of the United States. The sui
must be dismissed for want ,f jurisdis
ton.
Justice Nelson stated the merits of the
case. the question being whether or mo-
the removal of Scott from Missouri with
his master to Illinois, with view of tenn
porary residence, worked his emancipa
ton. He maintained that the question
depended wholly on the law of Missouri
and for that reason, the judgment of tht
court below should be affirmed.

Decision of Judge Mclean.

w ASHlNGTON, MafCn y.
In the L. S. Supreme Court this morn
ing, Judge Mclean delivered his views,
arguing that Slavery is limited to the
range of States where established by mere
municipal law. If Congress deem slaves
or free colored persons injurious to the
territory. they have the power to prohibit
them from becoming settlers therein.
The power to acquire territory brings with
1t the power to govern it.
The master does not carry with him to
the territory the law of the State from
which he removes. Hence the Missou-
ri Compromise is constitutional, and the
presumption is in favor of the freedom OF
bred Scott and bis family. who were free
under those decisions for the last twenty
eight years.

REPUTATION OF THE CANAL CONTRACTS.
1T would seem that there could lie but
one opinion upon the Legislative avoid
ance of these canal contracts, and yet, in
the Senate and House, we are told there
are two opinions. Our sincere conyic-
tion is. thatSthis diversity of opinion is
confined to the Legislature. Out of that
body we believe there is but one mind up
on the question-we certainly have heard
but the voice Of condemnation OF the pro.
posed Reputation of the canal contracts.
This opinion comes too from men who do
not deny that fraud exists in said CON
tracts, but maintain that the Legislature
il not the proper tribunal to settle so
mighty law question as must necessari-
~ arise. With all due Difference to our
Legislature, we suggest, that only men
OF legal occupations, and of legal educa.
ton, such as are presumed to be selected
for the Bench, form the proper tribuna
Tor the adjudication of such matters.--
That there are gentlemen in the Senate
and House who would grace the Supreme
Bench, we do not deny but it is not il
the province OF the Legislature, even i
composed entirely of lawyers, to deter
mine the validity of these contracts

DxLAwARs NATION, KIT, Feb. 5, 1857.
MEssRs. EDIroRs:-I learn by Pro-
Slavery man just from Lecompton. that
the last final effort to make Kansas a
slave State will soon be made. The trig-
gers are all set. and they are confident oi
success. The plan is, to be all law and
order men-have this Legislature to al
low none to vote who have not been in
the territory ninety days,and fix the eec-
ton ninety days from the 18th or Goth
Of February, so as to prevent the Free
State emigration next spring from voting.
In the meantime every member of the
Blue Lodge in Missouri is to send over
one citizen and get his neighbors to send
one. who are to 60 over before naviga-
tion opens. get claims. hold pre-emptions
away from the Free State settlers and
have them entered by Southern compa-
nies. and then elect Pro.Slavery Con-
vention and return. They threaten es-
pecially Ia keep the Yankees out Of the
Shawnee Reserve. They are building
towns there. and numbers are daily COM
ing over. Governor Geary tells them. il
they trample on justice. it must be over
his dead body. They are devising some
scheme to get him out Of the way
Whether they will urge Buchanan to
remove him or get some worthless scamp
to massacre him is not yet determined
Pistols are carried for him. The Ruff
ans threaten to open the ball again in the
Spring. If they do. they will find it an
uphill business. "SPYBUCK."

The uee of these Bitters imparts tone to the
