SUBoRDINATES ACr AT THEIR PERIL IN OBEYING
SUPERIOR OFFGcER.-A point of naval law developed
during the trial of an officer of the Brooklyn Navy
yard was, that while the rules and discipline of the
navy exact from inferior officers the most absolute
obedience to the mandates of their superiors, not
even the order of the President himself can Justify
an officer in doing unlawful act. And if, in
obedience to such order, an unlawful act be done,
the party executing the order is himself liable per-
sOnally for damages or other consequences of the
act This point was established by decision of
Chief Justice Marshall, made while Jefferson was
President, who held that an officer, in obeyng in
struction from the President of the United States
acts at his peril, and is answerabe for damages in
case these instructions are not warranted in law.

FRED. DOUGLASS ON TIE HARPER'S FER.

Fred. Douglass the noted negro agitator and in
cendiary, who found it more desirable to retreat
into Canada than to fulfill his promise Of assisting
the arpers Ferry conspirators, has Just discover
ed that the climate of England would be very bene-
fcial to his health, aud has therefore resolved to
pay ga long contemplated visit to that country
He cannot depart, however, without addressing to
| his ''readers and friends" few words of farewell
and giving his views generally concerning the great
event which, he ntimates, has somewhat expedited
his departure He says:
The Shareholders of Virginia and the South gene
rally, endeavoring to make the impression that
| the negroes summoned TO the standard of freedom
| by John Brown, viewed the effort to emancipatc
| them with Indifference. An cye-witDcss. and 4
| prominent actor in the transactions at Harpers
Ferry, now at my side, tells that this is grossly
aside from the truth. But even if the contrary
were shown, it would afford small comfort to the
Shareholders The slaves were sensible enough not
| to shout before they gained the prize, and their
conduct creditable to their wisdom The brief
space allowed them in freedom not sufficient
bring home to them in its funess the real signiti
cance OF the occasion. All the efforts to diSparage
the val0r of the coored insurgents are grounded
in the fears Of the Shareholders not in the facts of
the action. They report many dead insurgents
and few killed among those who opposed them |
have at last seen one man among the insurgents re-
ported killed. who is still alive, and bids fair to live
yet many years. On many accounts, were the thing
possible snOud Oe giau 10 use tue event at liar

before the American people. But there is work
abroad well as at home. Efforts will be made in
England, as well as in America, to turn the Har-
per's Ferry nsurrection to the account of slavery
may, for time, be useful there, in resisting and
counteracting these efforts.

such justice might be nationally expected by

sitting in the State Of Virginia. | am not favorite
in that State, and if acquitted by the Court,
with my knowledge of saveholding Inagnanimity

such court, than there would be in keeping out
of the way of a company ofhungry wolves. Never
