was not violation of the CONSTITUTION
OF the United States. He suggested
that it would perhaps be most. prudent
to continue all such cases until the de-
cision Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States upon the question should
be announced. The mcmbers .ofthe bar
approved of the, suggestion, aud all that
class OF cases vas continued. Judge
Orr has very distinguished precedent
for his determination in this case. In
the case of the State VS.. Wells, Cd Hill,
i6S7,) Judge karle decided that the
Congress could not confer jurisdiction
on the State courts to try violations Of
the criminal laws of the United States.
It went to The State Supreme Court; the
court reversed his decision. Two years
later, the case of the State vs.. Mcbride,
involving the same principle, came be.
fore him Oh the circuit, and he refused
to recognize the decision of the Supreme
Court in the case ofthe State rs. Wells
An appeal was taken. and the remodel
led Appeal Court of the State overruled
the decision in the case of the State VS.
Wells, and sustained the position taken
by Judge Earle. This last case vii! be
found in 2ice's Law Reports, page

Our contemporary, the Camden Jour
nal, brings us Intelligence that the
sacred dust Of the ismented THOMAS
j. WARREN has been brought from
Gettysburg; where he fell, with his face
gallapsiy to the foe, aud deposited in
:ths bosom Of his own dear native soil, in
defence Of which he gave his life
IS sacrifice.
We make the record with melancholy
pleasure. We knew him we'll, and we
know that no more unaincbing, self:
sacrificing or heroic son Of Carolina
buckled on his urmof, or mingled in
the smoke Of her battles, than was the
gifted WARREN.
Descended from his revolutionary an.
ce stor, of the same name, he was deeply
;mbued with the same spiris-the same
love and devotion to country-the same
ioae1ible will aud high sOuled. bearing
the same determined bravery, which
knew NO faltering, while the vital spark
remained.
We honor his name-we love and
reverence his memory. And may his
ashes. sleep in peace, where each re-
curing year, the loved ones of home
may bestreEsbis grave with the faires'
flowers Of spring.
