TIE MARBLE cAsE-NTEREsTNG DECISIONS OF
THE SUPREME COURT.
In the Supreme Court on Monday, Mr.. David
Dudley Field resumed his argument from
Thursday in the McArdle case for the eappellant,
holding the unconstitutionality Of his arrest
and trial by military authority. At the conclu-
sion OF Mr.. Fields argument, Mr. C. T. Bolts,
of California, of the counsel also for the appel
liant, obtained leave to file brief in the case.
Justice Nelson delivered the opinion in the
case of Mauro against the Alliance Insurance
Company. The company had insured the ship
Marshall for eight thousand dollars, not only
against the perils of the sea, but, as was stated
in the margin, against all seizures, or effect Of
seizures. The Marshall having started on her
voyage was captured in 1861 by q party of rebels
within q few miles of New Orleans.
The court held that there was at that time
de fdcto government in the South, which
was defined to be O. government in the possess
sion of the sovereignty OF particular section
of country, exercising some OF the rights OF in
dependent nations, such as blockade, taking
and exchange of prisoners and the support OF
armies. There was no more necessity that
there should be a recognized legal government
to Justify seizures than necessity to recog-
nize the seizure itself as lawful The efforts to
draw off eleven States from their allegiance to
this government, and the setting up OF the 30
called Confederate States Government were il
legal the States still being constitutlonauy In
the Union.
The court affirmed the Judgment Of the Cir
cult Court Of Massachusetts in favor OF the
appellant. Chief Justice Chase and Associate
Justice Swayne dissented from the opinion.

In the Fourth Ward it has been found that
of twenty-five negroes claiming residence on
certain square, in particular street, only
one lived at the place to which he had sworn.
The rest were, probably, recently imported
negroes, or negroes registered already in
other wards, and sent to the Fourth Ward to
be registered second or third time. This
device has probably been extensively prac-
ticed by the "trooly loil" scalawags who are
trying to get possession of the parish and
city offices. We hope that the committees
and ward clubs will turn their attention to
this matter at once. A few judicious arrests
would probably have wholesome effect on
the fraudulently registered followers of the
vagrant and mendicant carpet baggers. 1t is
pity that the white scamps who have led
the deluded negroes into this snare could not
be reached.
The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-04-11

We understand that the committee APP
pointed by the black and tan convention to
supervise the coming elections, have sent a
number of vagrant agents into the country
parishes and that these agents claim the
authority to appoint commissioners of cleo
ton. BY the order of General Buchanan
this power is granted to the boards of regis
tration, and the members of the boards have
the right to arrest any person prssuming to
obstruct them in the discharge of their duties
Registrars in the country should remember
that these ''trooly loil" Migrants are simply
impertinent interlopers, and should be treated
accordingly

prove of more than usual interest. They will be

Parson Conway writes, Indignantly and
complainingly, that the Democrats have
nominated a gentleman of his name for
mayor. This peripatetic candidate and
carpet-bagger says that the Democrats want
to persuade voters that the Democratic candi-
date for mayor is the Thomas W. Conway
who is running on the Republican ticket
This is certainly the coolest piece of assur-
ance on record. If the Democratic candidate
for mayor imagined for moment that any
body would mistake him for the notorious
author of the 4th of March telegram, we
have no doubt that he would change his
name at once. Parson Conway's notcriety is
the last thing of which gentleman in search
of popularity and votes would be apt to avail
himself There is no room, however, for
confusion in this case. Everybody knows
that the Democratic candidate for mayor is
an honest man and truthful gentleman.

The intelligent colored people of this city
do not hesitate to say that they utterly loathe
and scorn the vagrant and mendicant carpet
bsggers. Many of these people will yet re-
cede from an alliance which they sensibly feel
disgraces and degrades them. A respectable
colored man must feel ashamed to be caught
in the company of the itinerant plunderers
who have taken charge of the Republican
party.
