next morning, but did not deem itimpor.

A New Question Under the JurY
Law.

A question Of some Importance in the
jurisprudence OF the State is likely to
grow out Of the case of TAYLOR sTRAUDER
a colored man now under sentence Of
death in the Jail Of this county for the
murder OF his vile. The statute OF the
State does not allow colored persons to
serve on juries; and on the ground tna'
this statute violates the Civil Rights Bill
SrRAUDER's counsel, (Messrs. DAVENPORT
and DovENER) claim that his conviction
is invalid and propose to repeal the case
to u Federal tribunal. They propose frsl
TO appeal TO the Supreme Court OF the
State for writ of error. This will OPP
crate as a supcrcedeas to suspend the ex'
ccution OF the sentence till that court
Shall have acted on the appeal. II this
appeal fails, they will apply to Judge
BogD of the U. s. Circuit Court 10 have
the case certified to that court under tho
Civil Rights Bill. The civil rights act
(pssscd April o, 1860 provides that all
persons OF color who are citizens OF the
United States shall have the same right
to "lull and equal benefit OF all
laws and proceedings Tor the security OF
persons and property as is enjoyed by
white citizens" 1t Is claimed that where
colored citizens are denied any represGn.
tation on iuries, u Colored person on trial
by a Jury does not enjoy the equal benefit
of the laws under which he is tried nor
equal security OF person with white per-
son in similar circumstances. For the
exclusion is the result Of prejudice Sgainst
his color and he is denied the chances Of
having some person on the jury who
would by nature be incapable OF such n
prejudice. There is Discrimination
against him. The class OF citizens TO
which he belongs being excluded from
the jury box, he is not led by his peers,
and the same feeling which prompted the
exclusion would operate to his prejudice
with jury exclusively white; 80 that las
Mr. DAVENPORT holds no negro can be
legally convicted by a jury in this State
while the present jury law exists.
STRAUDER's counsel in this position not
only appear to be supported by logic but
they find precedent in a case in North
Carolina, where, in 1871, a negro named
DUNLAP, under indictment for murder,
succeeded in having his case certified to
the U. 5 Circuit Court on the ground
that by reason OF his race and form
er condition as u slave, he could not
obtain justice in the courts OF the
State Although the jury law OF North
Carolina permitted negroes to serve as
jurors, It appeared that in fact the law
was totally disregarded and when negro
juryman was drawn he was not sum
monCd, and mono ever got upon juries at
all. This was the same in effect as If they
had been excluded by statute. Here they
are excluded by statute; and it would
seem that the reasons governing the &C
ton Of Judge BOND in that case must be
equally strong in this, and according to
this precedent, Mr.. DAVENPORT has
ground for his claim that no negro can DO
convicted in this State under thepresent
law, and that STRAUDERs case must go
TO the Federal Courts.
