SUPREME CoURr OF Iowa ps. UNITED
STATES SUPREME CouRr.-Tho Supreme
Court of Iowa, on the hearing of habeas
corpus case decided that slave that was
permitted by his master to leave Missouri
and settled in Iowa, become free thereby.
The case was that man who sold freedom
to his slave in Missouri for the consideration
of $3.50, and permitted him to move to Iowa
to earn the money. After residence Of
many years in Iowa, the negro was seized
as fugitive slave, and was about being de-
livered up as such, when the writ of habeas
corpus brought him before the Supreme
Court and he was released. This decision
is directly opposed TO that of Judge Taney
and shows with what contempt the court
of the country--those that more directl,
speak the voice of the pcople-trcat th'
doctrine laid down in tho Dred Scott case

An important Decieion-Ohf0 Freea0u.
We published, not long since, an oxtrract
from tho Mansfield correspondent Of the
Pittsburgh Gazette, which advised the road
ers Of that Journal TO look out for thunder
from the Supreme Court Of Ohio That
thunder has been heard. Tho State Jour
nal, Of Friday last says that "the opinion Of
the Supreme Court was, this morning upon
case which involves very important prin-
ciple, of which we can only give bare out
line to-day. A slavo named Poindexter,
was owned by man named Anderson, lv-
ing in Kentucky near the Ohio river. Poin-
dexter was trusty and Of much value. His
master frequently sent him across the river
into Ohio TO transact business and to do er-
rands. He agreed to give Poindcxter his
freedom for the sum of four hundred dollars.
Poindexter executed notes with sufficient
surities for the payment of the money. He
went TO work in this State and in Kectucky,
to raise the money by the labor of his hands.
When one Of the notes became due, pay
ment was refused, and the owner, Ander-
son, brought suits in the Ohio Courts TO re-
cover of the surities.
"The suit was contested on the ground
that Poindexter was already free before the
notes were given, by having been brought
or sent into Ohio by his master, and there
fore there was no consideration given for the
the notes. This is tho chief point in the case
so far as principle is involved. But there
are several other parts of interest. Our
Supreme Court decide that this position is
we'll taken, and that the bringing or sending
slave into this State makes him free. To
this point Judge BARLEY dissents, the other
Judges agree upon it. This, it will bo seen,
conflicts with the Drcd Scott law of the
United States Court as recently expounded
by Judge Taney, but it is good law, never
theless, and will stand as such in the State
of Ohio. Her soil is free soil, and slave
holders can neither bring nor send their
slaves within our limits and hold them
again as property.
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1857-05-15
An Important DIcI.ion.

A judicial decision Of great interest and
Importance to all commercial merchants and
shippers on the Lakes. has just been made
by Chief Justice fancy in tho case of Will
lam Crichton, President of the Corn and
Flour Exchange VS.. the steamer Georges
Creek. Some time in April, 1855, says
the Baltimore Patriot of Friday, lot of
1887 ! bushels of corn were shipped from
that port to New York, for which clean
bill of landing was was received. The
steamer arrived safely, and the corn was
lightered 10 the point of delivery, but when
it was measured it fell short 24O ! bushels.
Suit for damages was brought in the U. s.
District Court, and Judge Giles decided
against the plaintiff. An appeal was taken
and tho case came before Judge Taney.---
The defendants proved that they delivered
all the corn they had received, and that in
New York grain was sold by weight. The
complainant contended that that formed nc
answer, as the difference might have been
taken without the knowledge of tho officer:
or crew of tho boat. The Court decided
that it was necessary to deliver the samC
number of bushels at New York that was
received in Baltimore. Judgment for plain
tiff $265 and costs.
This decides much disputed and doubt
ful point which has long been in the dark
and settles the legal question involved.

The public will expect us to define our
