hundred miles of the Road, including
its mountain divisions and boldest
scenery. From Cumberland the party
will either proceed in the express train,
in sleeping cars, direct to Baltimore or
Washington (either of which they will
reach for breakfast Saturday morning
or remain over night and take the special
train for either point West in the morn
ing, arriving at Baltimore or Washing
ton for early tea. . .a

the courtesy extended at any time dur
ing the present session of Congress-

will be issued as soon as the arrange
ments are entirely perfected, WHICH will

policy Of the Government ought to be
against its extension. ! al -:
2d-Does the Constitution carry Slavery
into the 1eTritories9
I answer no? The Constitution of the
United States does not carry slavery into
the Territories With much more show
of reason, may it be said that it carries
Slavery into all the States. But it does
not carry Slavery anywhere. It only
acts upon it where: it finds it established
by the local law. In connection with
this point, am asked to state my view
OF the bred Scott case, and what was
really determined by the Supreme Court
in that case. 1t is my opinion, carefully
considered, that the Court determined
one single point of law only. That is.
that Scott, the plaintiff, being negro, of
African descent, not necessarily a slave,
could not be citizen of Missouri, and
therefore could not sue in the, Federal
Court, and that for this reason and this
alone, the Circuit Court had no iuris-
diction of the. cause and no power to
give Judgment between the parties
The only Jurisdiction which the Su-
preme Court had of the cause was for
the purpose Of correcting the error of
the Circuit Court in assembling the
power to decide on the merits of the
case. This power the Supreme Court
did exercise by setting aside the judg-
ment of the Circuit Court upon the
merits, and by dismissing,the suit with
out any Judgment for or against either
party. This is all that the Supreme
Court did, and all that it had lawful
power to do. I consider it great pub
lie misfortune that several of the learned
Judges should have thought that their
duty required them to discuss and give
opinions upon various questions outside
OF the case, as the case was aetally dis
posed of by the Court. All such opin-
ions are extra-judicial and of no au-
thority. But, besides this, it appears to
me that several of the questions SO dis
cussed by the Judges are political ques-
tions, and therefore beyond the jurisdic-
tion Of the judiciary, and prope', only to

men, they hung Matti by the neck un-
til he was senseless, and then let him
down and demanded that he should tes-
tify against the others. AS he had moth
ing to testify, he could not of course sat
isfy the mob in that way, but they would
be satisfied with nothing else. They
then stripped Matti and fogged him un-
til life was nearly extinct, aud swore
they would torture him to- death if he
did not implicate himself and the other
three. When he had partially recovered,
they again commenced the diabolical
torture with the whip, until, to save his
life, he said he would say whatever they
required of him. Having dictated to
him what he should say, they again ap-
piled the lash until he was utterly ex.
hausted, when they let him loose with or
ders to leave'th State, on pain of death
