RETURNING TO SLAvERY-By the will of
the late David Glass, Of this city, his me-
groes who desired to 60 to Liberia were
ordered to be set free upon arriving at the
age Of Is years. In accordance with the
provisions of this will, two of the negro men
we're manumitted by the County Court and
delivered to Mr., Cowan, the agent of the
Kentucky Colonization Society. Mr.. O.,
started with them few days ago. When
they reached Lexington, they expressed
wish to see one Of their young mistresses
who resided there. Mr.. Cowan readily ac-
ceded to this request; but they did cot re-
tuln, Mr.. G., went after them, when they
positively refused to go to Liberia They
have returned to this city, and the executor
of Mr. GLASS; estate has taken charge OF
them. They will fall back on the heirs and

The opinion Of this eminent jurist, sus-
taining Judge Douglas construction Of the
Dred Scott decision, and also his view Of the
doctrine Of popularity sovereignty, will have
tendency 10 stop much oil the idle clamor
against the Illinois Senator.
" any one may be supposed to compre-
bend the decision Of the Court in that cele.
brated case, and the principles upon which
II was founded, certainly wo may take the
opinion Of the counsel in whose favor il was
made, as good authority especially whom
that counsel Is as eminent for legal ability
as Mr.. johnson lie says the Court did not
decide that Slavery exists in United States
Territory "by piriue OF the Constitution y
yet this seems to be the position now in'
sisted upon by almost the entire SOUTH
From this view of that decision it would
follow that Slavery exists every where and
IL "by virtue Of the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States" Of course it cannot be controll-
ed or affected in any way by legislation, as
the Constitution is by It's own provision the
Supreme law of the land.
This extraordinary claim in reference to
the Supremacy Of Slavery was never set up
even by the South until the Kansas trouble
flour Southern Democratic brethren deter
mine to cucumber the Charleston nominee,
with this dead weight, they may make up
their minds to the Inauguration Of Black

The landlord Of the inn informed him that

against setting down nt the table with sew

there. Upon the Colonel informing him that
he had slight objection to such procc-

ter, perhaps, wait for the second table and
eat after the negroes had donel The Colo'
mel took his carpet sack and left about that
time, but was followed by the landlord, who
stated that the prejudioes Of the place were
such that he could make no distinction in
color at his house. The Colonel recognized
the force Of this, but concluded he would
take supper in some other town.

lican paper, in alluding to the reward of
$4,000 offered for the safe delivery Of
Joshua X. Giddings, in Richmond, Va, or
5000 for the production of his head, says.
"Old Josh would probably go to Richmond
on invitation, and deliver lecture for half
the amount offered for his head. He is as
brave as cid Brown, and about as reckless
on the slavery question
Such a paragraph as the above is a clear
admission of "old Josh's" completely, and
theirs, in sentiment at least with the Har-
per's Ferry insurgents. This is another
evidence Of the fellow-fe feeling existing be
tween the Republican press and old Browns
reasonable transactions, and shows the i'm.
possibility for them to hide their affinity
for each other. Stick up for "old Josh" and
old Brown too; call them "brave," and praise
them for their reckless disregard of the
lives of their fellow citizens, and see what
the result will be- The mass Of the people
will not uphold you in it.
