A Question of states, Rights.

The trial OF Deputy Marshal Magic on
the charge OF shooting Terry while In the
act Of assaulting Justice Field, of the
United States Supreme Court, has raised
an Important question Of Jurisdiction.
The question was whether the killing Of
Terry was State ofense, to be tried by
the State courts, or an offepse coming
under the Jurisdiction Of the United
States court. Judge Sawyer, before
whom the case was tried In San Fran
CLEO, decided that It was q case for
the United States, and not for the State
conrts lie took the novel ground that
wherever federal judge may be, n In
the discharge OF his official duty, ho 10
under the p cte' tIon and within th, juris-
diction Of the United States. He need
not be In court; the Jurisdiction follows
hin In the street, or when travelling from
one court TO another, or even while sit
ting at his repast In q hotel, as Justice
Field was when assaulted by Terry De-
putty Marshal Nagle, who had been order
cd to protect Justice Field from \ possi-
ble attack by Terry, was held TO be iu
the line OF his duty when he she I Terry.
The act itself may be considered .jussifi-
able by most persons, but tine right to

The West Chester Local News OF last

The food along the Wilmington and
Northern Railroad: The heavy rain oil
yesterday caused the Brandy wine to rise
70 one Of its o.d.t me floods. Language
cannot de, cribe the scene presented at
Lenape. The extent Of the waters canno,
be iully realized unless one witne ses tue

mules and heavy wagon IVES started
through (the waters having recede d
slightly In the mtantime) in charge of a
careful driver, and made the trip In safe
ty, finding no obstruction except three
strands OF wire iencs at the farther side.
He then turned back and having re-
tnrned in safety, he again attempted to
cross, this time accompanied by Mr.. Kirk

that great logs trees and great smount
