An important decision was delivered in the su-
pr6me Court of the United States on Monday, the
9Th inst, by fancy in the case Of the
United States vs. Sherman H. Booth, the Supreme
Courtys error to Supreme Court of Wisconsin. The
main points of the case are, IN brief, as follows:
The case involved the right Of State courts to re
lease on haeeas corpus parties in custody under pro
cess Of the United States. This vas done by the
court below in the instance of arrest uuder udg
ment by the District Court of The United States for
violation of the fugitive slave law The whole
conduct of the court below was held TO be totally
illegal, and virtually revolutionary; that the Mar
shall had q right, and il was his duty to resist by
force any such interference the part of the State
powers; and that he fugitive slsve act was clearly
constitutional This is Of course mere outline Of
the opinion which is urders God have been unsni
nous. 1t must put to an end for the future oil con-
tests between the United states and States as to The
oonstutionality Of the fugitive slave law; and all
at empts hereafter by State courts to interfere with
The officers of the United States in carrying it out
will be regarded as revolutionary, and treated as
sucb.

Montgomery, marching in the van Of the old Wing
party. and bearing their colors in his hand. Il is
strange, TO see him placed in advance Of mea who
were battling for HENRY CLAY and his doctrines,
while he exeFting ell the energies Of his nature
TO cover them with odium and disgrace. But such
is the fsct MILL Brown and Col. CHEArHAM aud
Capt. Foster and Col SMILEY, have yielded up the
standard Of their party to a gentleman who has
proclaimed bis opposition to their party and their
principles during much the larger portion Of his
political life. We listened with some anxiety to
hear what Gen. QUARLEs could say in accepting the
nomination Of the Opposition convention We ex
pected from him at least apology to the supporters
of Gen. ScorF in 1882 for the bitterness with which
he had assaulted them. But though many Of
those men whom he had thus denounced were
standing around him, aud though they had
just offered him the highest hOnors they had
10 confer, no such apology fell from his lips. He
only testified his repentance for his past course,
by abusing his OLD political friends, and charaeteri
zing the party TO which he once belonged as cor
rupt political organization. The general is an apt
scholar and be has already learned the lesson which
Bell has assigned his followers. He speaks as BIT
ter words ag inst the Democratic party as GREELEY
himself could utter, aud talks as Chilly OF Demo-
cratic corruption, though he had sat fJr years
under the instruction Of WM. II. SEWARD Mr.
QUARiEs' speech was all that Know Nothing or
Black Republican audience C ulI desire, and vas
received with some enthusiasm by his part, 1t is
unnecessary to say he accepted the nomination.
Mr.. Richard 3 Cheatham having been nominated
as candidate for joint Representative in the cOun
ties Of Davidson, Robertson aed Montgomery, made
shert speech, accepting the honor. No delegation
being presen. from Stewart, the nomination for
Senator in the coOnties Of Stewart, Montgomery and
Robinson was deferred, and we left our old friend
JOHN D. TYLER Of Montgomery, good naturedly
begging his friends not to put his name before the
adjourned Convention as a candidate for the Senate

Appropriation BILL.
The Washington correspondent of the Philaiel-
phia North American writes:
''The mail contracts for Georgia are econ to be
let, and it IS said the Department will feel CON
strained to turn the rerenehiDg screw in that di.
reciion that Mr.. Toombs' constituents may receive
the full benefit Of his defeat of the Post Office bill
This is not the FIRST intimation of purpose in
certain quarters TO hold Mr. Toobs responsible for
the miscarriage Of the Post Office Appropriation
bill We are reluctant TO suspect the President Of
any such Injustice.
What are the facts Of the case? The House Of
Representatives postponed action on the Appropri>
alton bills to so late period Of the session. that
time was wanting for the adjustment CT the dispue
which originated in Senate amendment t. the
Post Office act. The dispute was This: had the Ser

ment providing for an increase Of postsg5? At the
instigatiOn of 3 Black Republican leader sj0riy
OF the House-the Democrats voting aye-reiuTRed
negative response. Accordingly, the bl with
the Senste amendment was rejected, and in its
stead he House sent back new bill, under circum
stances implying peremPtory demand for its pass
its rights the Senate refused to acqucsce n an ar
rangement which involved surrender OF its con
stitutionsl privileges. To this effect spoke Messrs
