the town, as the night was windy, and

urteenth amendment to the cOnstitu-

fourteenth amendment to the constitu-
ton.
Second that the fourteenth amend
ment is Ir1hibitory upon states only
and the legislation authorized to be
adopted by congress for enforcing that
amendment is directlegislation on mat
tiers respecting which the states are pro-
hibited from making or forcing certain
laws, and ordaining certain acts, but is
corrective. The legislation necessary
and proper for counteract;ng and re-
dressing the effects each of law or art
That in forbidding the states, for exam
pie, to deprive any person of liberty or
property without due process of law
and giving congress power to enforce
the prohibition, it was not the intention
TO give congress power to provide a dine
process of law for the protection of life
liberty or property, which would en-
brace almost all subjects of legislation.
but to provide modes of redress for
counteracting the operation and effect
of state laws obnoxious to the prohib;-
ton.
Third-That the Fifteenth amend
ment gives no power to congress to pass
the sections referred to, because that
relates only to slavery, land invol-
untary servitude, which it abolises and
gives congress power to pass laws for
its enforcement, and that this power on
ly extends to the subject matter of the
amendment itself, slavery or involunta-
ry servitude and the necessary incidents
and the consequence of these conditions.
That it has nothing to do with the diff
erent races or cClorS, but only refers to
slavery. The legal equality of the diff
erent races and classes and citizens be-
ing provided for IN the fourteenth
amendment, which prohibits states
from doing anything to interfere with
such equality. That it is not an in
fringement of the thirteenth amend
ment TO refuse to any person equal &C
commodations and privileges in an inn
or place of public entertainment, how
ever, it may be violative of his legal
rights. That it imposes upon him no
badge of slavery or involuntary servi-
tude which implies some sort of subjec-
ton of one person TO another and III
the capacity incident thereto, such as
inability to hold property, to make con-
tracts, to be parties in court, etc, and
that if the original civil rights act
which abolished these incapacities
might be supported by the thirteenth
amendment, it does not therefore fol-
low that the act of 1877 can be supported
by it.
Fourth-That this decision affects on
ly the validity of the law in the states.
and not in the territories or the district
OF Columbia, where the Legislative pow
ers of congress are unlimited, and it
does not undertake to decide What con-
gress might or might not do under the
power to regulate commerce with for
eign nations and amongst the several
states, the law not being drawn with
any such view.
Fifth-That, therefore, il is the opin-
ion Of the court that the first and sec
Ond sections of the act Of congress of
March 1877, entitled AN act to pro-
tect all citizens in their civil and legal
rights" are unconstitutional and void,
and judgment should be rendered on the
indictments accordingly.

The CIVIL RIGHTS BILL UNcoNsr1rU-


TIE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL UNcoEsTITU-
TIOHAL.
- The supreme court of the L. s. this
week decided that the first and second
sections of the Civil Rights bill are un-
constitutional. There were five cases
before the court, all based OH the first
and second section of the civil rights
act of 20 and were respectively prose-
cutions under that act for not admit
ting certain colored persons to equal
accommodations ond privileges in inns
or hotels, in railroad cars and i'm thea
tres. The defense set up in every case
was the alleged unconstitution;.lity of
the law. The first and second sections
OF the act which were the parts directly
In controversy, are as follows:
Section /. That all persons within
the jurisdiction of the United States
shall be entitled 10 full and equal enjoy-
of accommodations. advantages. facili-
ties and privileges in the United States
that the public can on land and water.
theatres and other places of amusement
subject only To the limitations estab-
lished by law, and applicable alike to
citizens of every race or any color. re-
CARELESS of any previous condition of
servitude.
The second section provides that any
person who violates the first section
shall be liable to forfeit $500 for each
Offense, to be recovered in civil action.
and also to a penalty of from 500 to
$1,000 fine or Imprisonment for thirty
days to a year, TO be enforced in GRIM
inal prosecution. Exclusive juTisdic-
ton is given to the district and circuit
courts of the United States in cases
arising under the laws. The rights and
privileges claimed by, and denied to
colored persons in these cases were full
and equal accommodations in hotels. in
ladies cars on railroad trains, and in the
dress circles in theatres.
The court in a long and carefully pre-
pared opinion by Justice Bradley hoIGs:
First-That congress had 10 consti-
