Important Opinions Delivered in the
u. =. Supreme Court.

The prize cases, which were decided at the
last term oil the Supreme Court of the United
States, raised come questions Ol grave interest. !.
The Court decided unanimously that war ex-
lists between the United Stale, and certain
States. The majority (6ve judges) held that
the inception Of that war dated from the proc
lamation OF tee President, and the minority
(iour judges) held that it dated from the act of
Congress of July l3, 1851. But the g,eat point
settled by the Court is that States, not simply
individuals, are at var with the United Statee.
The following is from the opinion of Justice
GRIRR, with whom concurred all the new Re-
publican members:
Under the very peculiar Constitution Of this
Government, although the citizens owe su
preme allegiance to the Federal Government
they owe also a qualified allegiance to the
State in which they are domciled. Their ter-
sons and property are subject to It's laws.
Hence in organizing this rebellion they have
acted as STATES claiming to be sovereign over
oil peraons and property within their respective
limits, and asserting q right to absolye their
citizens from their allegiance to the Federal
6OVeFlmeDb. OoVcEdl VI stueh6 Otdbeb nave
combined to form a neD confederacy. claiming
to be acknowledged BY the world as sovereign.
Their right to do 30 is now being decided by
wager of battle. The ports and territory OF
each Of theee States are held 10 hostility to the
General Government. All persons Te.iding
within this territory are liable to be treated as
enemies. they having cast of their allegiance
and made war on their Government.
Justice NRIsoN coiLcided in these views and
expressed himself thug:
In case Of a rebellion or resstancs by Dor
tion of the people Of country against the
established Government, there is no doubt, II
| in it's progress and enlargement tho Governmt ut
thus sought to be overthrow sees ft. Il may by
the competent power recognize or declare the
existence of state of civil war, which will

A Republican ssview.o


We find the following "view" In late mum.
ber Of the Albany IN. ~ Statesman, radical
Republican paper;
A thousand "friends of the Administration
have said, and still more of the same class have
done things more Injurious to the national
cause than any thing Vallandigham has said or
done.
Look at the irreparable injury caused by the
dismissal of Fremont, Butler, Sigel, Lew Wal
lace and other successful Generals from the
public service. Look at the communications
authorized with leading rebels by the Secretary
of State st the beginning of the rebellion, and
at Thurlow Weeds similar conduct for months,
If not for years, under the patronage Of the
Government 30 that they were puifed at the
South as we'll as by the woret of the copper
head newspapers.
Look as the reeking and fostering corrup.
tions of our custom houses and commisaariats,
and compare with their influence that OF
the harmless blowing of Vallsndgham &
Co. Besides the Government might bet
ter understand, drst as last, that any in.
reference with the liberty Of speech and OF
the press, can not fail to be offensive to the
public sense Of our people. They believe there
is no danger Of error so long as the truth is
left free to combat it. If there ie no cause
for complaint, the people will justify its utter
ance. American freemen will abide by the
Constitution and laws, and they will not zee
them violated any more by the Government
than by themselves. The arbitrary arrests and
punishments without trial, inaugursted by
Messrs. Seward & Son, and now practiced by
petty despots dressed in little brief authority,
can not be sustained.
The only Journal In this State which aspires
to d" the bad eminence " of spplauding the ar
rest of Vallandigham, is the New York Times
the same journal which pronounced "Horatio
Seymour" a "traitor," and seemed to lend
ssnclion to Cassus M. Clay's Brooklyn speech
that he Is, be hung.

Gov. Tod's Letter OH Negro Enlistments
in Ohio.


The Journal of this city, in its issue Of Mor-

Governor TOP addressed to M. LANesToN, O
" coored gentleman"
The STATE OF ONO,
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.i
COLUMBUS, May l6, 1863.
John NJ. Lsngston, Esq, Presenf'
Referring 10 our conversation Of last evening,
j have nov TO repeat:
lst. That the Government ia desirous to OBJ
tain all the colored troops that can be raised.
"a. That the pay, bounty, clothing and terms
OF enlistment will be the same for col0red
troops as for white troops.
81. That authority has been given by the
Government to Governor Andrew, OF Maesa-
chusetts, to recruit coored men for the Masss-
chuset, brigade from all the loyal States.
4,h That, as it is uncertain what number of
colored men could be promptly raised in Ohio,
have advised and still do advise, that those
disposed to enter the service, promptly join the
Massachusetts, regiments-thus securing to the
Government the services Of colored men much
earlier than if the attempt we're made to get up
regiments in each loyal State.
Having requested the Governor of Massachu-
sets to organize the colored men from Ohio in
to separate companies, as far as practicable,
and also to keep me fully aivised Of the number,
with the name, age, and place Of residence of
each, Ohio will have the full benefit OF all en-
listments from the State, and the recruits them
selves the benefit OF State association TO the
same extent, nearly, as If organized into
State regiment. In addition to the benefit be-
fore recited, believe tina. the State OF Massa-
ohusetts pays an extra bounty OF $50 to each
recruit who may join the Massachusetts, brig
ade. No such provision Is made by the laws Of
Ohio.
am glad to know that you are devOting your
beet energies to the work OF Raising troops ior
this brigade, and trust your efforts may prove
highly successful.
Herewith hand you copy of letter to
Governor Andrew on tho subjec. in hand; also
copy OF letter recently received from Gen. d
Hunter, from Hilton Head, highly commencing
the conduct Of your countrymen who are under
his command, which you are at liberty TO make
such use OF as you may see proper.
Yours, etc,
:. DAVID TOD, Governor.

Laeisl views Of Al n affairs are al
( once so multiform and so constantly chang
ing that it is difficult to fix them, or even to
find out philosophical principle by which
| to study them
The English cristocracy aud gentry wish
our downfall: this much is evident; but they
are deferred hy fear and cupidity from de-
tcrmincd opposition, and so they thread their
MnchiaYcllian way with caution and circum-
loCution.
a gentleman Of observation, just returned
from England says the Philadelphia Inqui-
rer, informs us that no English Ministry
could keep its place that openly declared in
favor of an American war. The great heart
OF the English masses beats in unison wi th
us, after all ); and if English rulers cannot,
by ISLANDERS and misrepresentation pcrvcrt
those Wholesome sentiments, they must bend
to the popular mandate and steer clear Of q
rupture.
But, besides this fear Of the people, they
are deferred by our successes, not knowing
bnt that just as they put in their oar, we
may have the rebellion on lis back, and be
ready TO pitch into them with tremendous
force. between n desire to see us beaten,
and desire to keep lier own skin whole, the
English Government is in strait be:wixt
two, and her fears will work, we hope and
believe, rs tie countcrbalance in favor of
peace.
But tue strongest expression Of caution in
England which we have seen is to be found
in the comments of the London Army and
Navy Gazette OF Gillmorcs gunnery. The
writer twists and turns it he reasons upon
it abstractly; he illustrates from English his
tory. Such gunnory at Sebastopol would
have made short work not only Of 'Malakoff,
Rcdan, and all Southern defenses, but of the
shipping and forts ON the other side of the
harbor.' Such batteries would make their
great iron-clad very soon spent and sore
wounded Fairior. ,.
DO not let us pooh-pooh the Americans;
if we are wise it is tie last thing we ought to
do John Bull has pooh-poohcd the world

and uneiril fellow but in view Of the re-
