An Important Decision---ohios Soil Free

An Important Decision-.-Ohio Soil Free
The opinion of the Supreme Court wa
this morning given upon case which in
wolves very important principle, of which
we can give only a fair outline to-day. A
slave, named Poindexter, was owned by
a man named Anderson, living in Ken
tucky. near the Ohio river. Poindextel
| was trusty and of much value. His mas
ter frequently sent him across the rive
into Ohio, TO transact business for him
and to do errands. He agreed to civ.
Poindexter his freedom for the sum Of fou
| hundred dollars. Poindexter executed
notes with sufficient sureties for the pay
ment ofthe money. He went to work il
ther State and in Kentucky, to raise the
money by the labor of his hands. Wher
one of the notes became due, payment
was refused, and the owner, Anderson
brought suits in the Ohio Courts to recov.
er of the sureties
The suits 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 therefore there was no consideration
given for the notes. This is the chief
point in the case, so far as principle is
involved. But there are several other
points of interest. Our Supreme Court
decide that this position is well 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 be seen, con
ficts with the Dred Scott Law of the Uni
ted States Court. as recently expounded
by Judge Taney. but it is good law, new
ertheless, and will stand for such in the
State of Ohio. Her soil is free soil, and
shareholders can neither bring nor send
their slaves within our limits and hold
them again as property. Tomorrow We
hope to be able to present all the points in
this case and, if possible, we will publish
the decision in full.-O. s. Journal.
