risGictfOn TAX EN- I'm the Yerger Case
Important Decision.
WASHINGTON, October 25.--In the SUI
preme Court this morning Chief Justice
Chase read an elaborate opinion In the YER
ger case, TO the effect that the Supreme
Court of the United States has jurisdiction
under the Constitution and the judiciary
act of 1851; that the act Of 1867, repealed
by the act of 1858, does not act to take away
the jurisdiction OF this court in this case.
The writ Of hdbeGs corpus was referred to as
among our most valuable rights, and is
guarded by the Constitution. The merits
Of the Yerger case were not involved in the
opinion, the court merely assuming juris-
diction. &
Yergers counsel will have conference to-
morrow with the Attorney-G General, when
further proceedings under jurisdiction Will
be arranged. The granting of the writ Is
still pending. ~. II Is, -.
Justice Miller dissented from the opinion
of the court.

tice is over four newspaper columns long.
The conclusion of Judge Chase's opinion
is as follows; ssisfsii0' n Z! 1.
t'The argument having been confined to
the question of jurisdiction, this opinion is

yIlHIS Society, which confines its bust
a ness exclusively to assuring the lives
OF persons resident IN the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other As
surance Company, %labouring in the same
field, can offer. It's scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that OF
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate TO provide for the
risk of life in the West Indies, and sufi-
cient TO create large SURPRISES, out of
which Rever>io0ary Bonuses, averaging
p per cent per annum upon the amour
assured have been distributed mong Il e
Members of the Society.
Its career, during a period of 80 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part Of
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those inhabiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.

The following opinions have been obtained
regarding the climate of Jamaica as suitable for
InvalidS and others of delicate constitution;
and being from the highest Medical Authorities
in the Country they, may be received and enter
tanned as the c%ounsels of experienced Physicians:
The Hon. DR.. BOwerbank's Opinion.
"There can be no doubt, that where a prediS-
position to tubercular or s~crofulOus disease ex,
lists, a residence here will often completely
check its further development, and even during
the earlier stages of tubercular consumption, if
it's progress is not arrested, life is often pro-
longed, and the disease Invested of much of its
suffering.
"The Island from its position, and from its
great irregularity of surface, presents a vast
variety of climates So much 50, that for mere
change of climate, an Invalid need scarcely quit
its shores.
1.-The Island contains several Mineral Springs,
one of which is thermal, and has been found of
great service in the treatment of Rheumatic,
Gouty, and Cutaneous affections. Another of
these Springs is, an Aluminous Chalybeate, is
situate in the higher Mountains, in a most de-
lightful climate; and were it better known and
more accommodation afforded, [ have little
doubt that many suffering from impaired health,
the result of a long and continued residence in
the lOwlands, might from its use, be restored to
health in lieu of undertaking an expensive, and
too often incOnvenient transatlantic trip; besides
which, [ do not think, were the virtue of the
Spring its mild and delicious climate, its Grand
and Magnificent Scenery, made known, that 1t
would be too much to expect that 1nvalidS from
other Countries in search of that greatest of all
Observation-Disclosures be induced to visit
this fair spot in this Land Of Springs"
DR.. Campbell's Opinion.
"The effects of residence in Jamaica on Eu-
rOpeans and Americans is usually beneficial,
especially on those who are prediSpOsed to scr0-
tula or pulmonary consumption, or who have
evinced a peculiar tendency to colds and chrO-
meal affections during the winter months. In
such cases the general health and physical ener-
gies usually undergo a rapid and marked change,
resulting in permanent good health"

Americans and Europeans will find a climate
here more congeniel to them, and one in which
they can carry on all the laborious exertions to
which they have been accustomed. The island
possesses. ali the advantages that man can desire
for every industrial purpose. The slight deri-
walton of temperature experienced during the
entire year, and the regular alienation of the
sea and land breezes, which modify it, render
the island a most desirable residence for invalids.

It is known that the French Govern
ment has refused permission to an
American company to land a cable on
the shores OF France. on the ground
that It has given Messrs. ETlanger and
Renter. the exclusive privilege of in,
teroceanic communicati9u IN by telegraph
for twenty years. The projectors Of
the new enterprise have addressed a
memorial to Secretary Fish, reminding
him that Erlanger and Reuter- we're the
most bitter enemies of the United States
during the war, the former supplying
means to the rebels to carry on the war
and the latter spreading false news TO
the injury of the United States. They
ask that the operation and working Of
the French Cable shall be suspendel !
tiII citizens OF the United States shall
meet the same reciprocity in France
which has been accorded to her citi-
zeps here. The Secretary will pTObab-
ly turn the whole matter over to Con-

Cooper, 55; Johnson, 81. Cooper is a
