Vendees not Liable on Notes Given for
Purchase Of Slaves.

Judge Gates, of Louisiana, has decided
ohhgations-that OF the seller to deliver
and warrant the things sold and its peace
able possession ; ;nat Of the buyer to &C
cert the delivery and pay the puce-aud
that the logical sequence Of the action Of
the State in emancipating slaves must be,
that when the right of property in that
which had heretofore been treated as such
by the laws is destroyed, the laws to re,
gn'ate the right Of parties to that proper
ty, and to enforce payment Of Obligations
gwen for it, must follow the fate Of the
property itself, and all contracts based
upon those laws be annuIled.
Judge Gates holds that the tenure bv
which this species Of property was held
was d'Ilercnt from that by which All other
property is held. 1t was not based, he
says, on natural law; and the right of
liberty was pre.eXisting right which be
Iong"d to the person held as a slave,
however mu,h public policy and the sup
posed interest of the coun,rv may L,yo
