The wrongs and injuries to which American SEA
men are subjected detailed statement of which

that public attention which is pretty sure guaran-

condition of society, the easiest matter to cure
disease in the sgsravs,ion Of which SO many persons
of wealth and influence are interested, and in this
particular case the difficulty 10 complicated, for We
are met al the very threshold Of the discussion BY
the undeniable fact that discipline upon cupboard
must be maintained. From the very nature Of the
service the IN, ster must be an autOcrat; his word,
and in his Absence the word Of his representative,
must be considered law and il is utterly impossible
to call town meeting on board to decide whether
TIE ship shall be pu. about or whether the tops.i'
shall be r.ered. Moreover, it is only fair to remeu-
Der that the master is not sustained BY moro than

The opinion of the Supreme Court in tho Drod

il TO be regarded as lsw-of interfering with tho
local construction given by the Courts Of Rhode

Constitutions, 70 citizens Of the United States; put

of the State for its opinion As to tho bearing OF tho
bred Scott deeisOn upon the Interpretation Of tho
State Constitution. The Supreme Court OF tho
limited States has heretofore conceded to the State
Court, the right of interpreting their owo CsRsttu
t;ons and statutes, and as tho question raised in
Maine relates only to fright to be exercised exciu-

A letter from Mr.. Bayard Taylor. giving an &C.
count of stme Of the experiences of his Lapland
journey, will be found on another page of this
paper. As we have before stated. Mr.. Taylor ar.
rived at Stockholm, On the return from his Arctic
excursion, about the middle of February. The
highes. point he reached WAS Kautokeno. at CO..
He travelled on sedges drawn BY reindeer, and found
the excessive cold easier to bear shan he had ex.
pected. For six days of the journey they rode with
the Thermometer at 40 below zero. &r. Taylor
wss in excellent health on bis return to Stockholm.
The letters describing this very interesting excur
sion will appear in our columns in as rapid succession
as possible

The report gains ground that the new Admins
tration intends to dispense with that rather Orna'
mental than useful sppendage termed an Organ;
and, should it be verified by time, it will exat our
already high opinion Of the sarewdness and praci-
cal good sense of Mr.. Cobb, the virtual Premier.
There was never but one Administration strength.
ened by an Organ-that Of Gen. Jackson BY The
Globe during the Bank war-while it has been the
fortune Of most Organs to weaken the objec. Of
their alteration, and, in at least one instance, 10
render it ridiculous.
An Organ is bereft Of all moral power by the ne
cessitxs Of lie position. is lamentations have
ne weight, because taey inevitable. He who
lives BY the favor Of Dis patron cannot afford 10 dis
cover that patrons faults-al his time and talents
are employed in discovering snd msgnifying bis viz
tues. Euogiums on Louis Napoleon in the M0"'-
tear may excite grin, but can never eIrOrt cheer.
Human Nature is not green enough to be frsnzed
to that extremity. One might as we'll go INTO ecs-
tacies over TIE metrical illusions which celebrate
the virtues Of the original DR.. Jacobss Sarsspsrlua
or Wld's Indian Candy.
But, while an Organ can rarely strengthen an al
ministration il can and does frequently weaken or
tabarrass it. II can render it lausang-stock by
its obsrepersus and incorporate adulaton, just ~
"too much pudding" saith the sdase, may caoks

The Union, some days since, by way of shutting
our mouth on the subject of the extraordinary and
outrageous opinion delivered by Chief Justice Ts-
Ley in the name of the slaveholdipg Judges OF the
Supreme Court of the United States in the bred
Scott case put the quession-Whas right or liberty
Of ours had been taken away BY that decision To
which We replied, in the spirit Of that famous line
Of the Roman poet, that being men, whatever con-
cerned mankind concerned Us, and that a. the
bred Scott decision was violent and ferocious at
tack on the rights Of human nature, it was therein
and thereby On attack upon Us. The Union, how.
ever, which seems to believe IS little in humane
,ympa,hies as it does in /" the rights Of human ma
,are," instead Of being satisfied with this answer,
,ets it down utterly failing to meet the ques-
ton put to u; in fact as admitting distinctly that no
right of ours has been taken away by the decision
referred TO- and that no Southern man has any su-
periorisy by that decision over any Northern man;
upoa which supposed position Of the case, it VEN
lures upon . new expression of wonder that we
should s.sail the Court as having made war upon
Northern rights, and having promulgated .

the bred Scott decision that ground We are per-
fectly ready to accommodate il by coming down to
the lower ground Of TAs Unios's own selection and
to consider the bred Scott case in ts bearing upon
our own rights and the rights generally Of Northern
men.
Now, We have TO object to that deciaion from
this point Of view, that in undertaking to determine
from prevailing outside opinion q. the time of ts
formation what the meaning and intent of the Con.
stuion Of the United States il, the usaees of two
ultra saveholdipg States are employed to set aside
tie law and the practice of all the other States of
the Union, and are made the rule of construc ion
to which the law and practice of those other
eleven States are required 10 succumb. We

A Washington letter which we published yestor-
day addressed 10 The Baltimore Ssn, In reference TO
tho opinions delivered in tho bred Scott case, has
the following passage:
"The dissenting opinions Of Justices Mclean. and
Curtis have been spread before the public through tho
newspapers of Boston and New York. and before they
were filed They were no. obtained from the Clerks
Office As the reporter of the Court Is entitled to
copyright II will Be violation of that right TO present
the opinions in full in the newspapers"
It is mistake to say that the reporter Of tho
Court is entitled to copyright in the opinions Of the
Court. The Cour: has itaelf decided otherwise.
The opinions of the Court are public documents, in
which it is impossible for any person to have copy
right property. The only things in which the 70
porter has any copyright are his statements of the
csses, marginal notes and arguments Of counsel,
where he gives them. 1t is upon the basis of this
decision that the pew edition of the DE- csions Of the
Supreme Court has been published, edited by Judge
Curtis, and which contains tho opinions Of tho
judges entire.
The copyright law will be no obstacle in tho way
ofplacing Mr.. Tansys slavehOders' plea, in srtoa'o.
before the public.
