Pronouncing the whole affair

This somewhat notorious case has been finally decided
against the claimants by the highest judicial authorities
in the State OF New York. AS Yearly as we can re-
collect, is involving the right of Shareholder
to retain his slave while in ha,u from one slave State
to another in the event of the most convenient route
carrying him through any portion of non-slaVeholdng
State.
A Mr. Lemon of Virginia was going out to Texas to
SETTLE and taking certain of his servants along with
him. In order to take shipping for the point on the
Texas coast to which he desired to by that mode OF
conveyance he found it necessary to go to New York
This he did, taking his servants with him. While at
tempting to pursue bis journey by putting himself and
servants on board vessel bound to Galveston or some
other Texan port, the negroes were taken from him.
| Hence this suit for damages i'll which the State OF
Virginia appears plaintiff and the State OF New ork
defendant The decision is in favour OF the defence
Any Southern who allows his servant to even look
at the waters of New York Bay must hereafter make
ur his mind to have him taken away without any redress
hope OF redress although he had no intention OF
bringing such servant within the limits of the State Of
New York-none at least of keeping him there per-
hitting him to remain longer than the necessities of his
journey might render imperative.

Spanish Bank of Havana to lend her 100000 for
