WttAT THE DEED SCOTT CASE DE u : ;..': - CIDED. 1 v In the 19th vol.' of Howards Reports, pace 395, it is stated that the Supreme Court of the United Mates decided m the Dred Kcott case as, follows? The territory thus acquired by the people of the United States for their common and equal benefit,' through their agent and trustee, the Fed-1 eral Government, CongTesa can exereise no power. over the rights of persons or property of a citizen in the territory which Is prohibited by the Consti-r tution. I he Oovernment and the citizen, when ever the Territory is open to settlement, both enter it with their respective rights defined and limited by the Constitution." '"- -;-.-- ' ' : ' 2. "Congress have no right to prohibit the citi zen of any particular State or States from taking up their home there, while it permits citizens ot any particular State or States to do bo. Nor has it a right to give privileges to one class of citizens which it tefuses to another. V -The Territory is ac quired for their equal and common benefit, and if open to any must be open to all upon equal and the same terms." 4 -r-s ? ; 3. "Every citizen has a right to take with him into the 'Territory any article of property which the Constitution of the United States recognizes as property." ' ' - .; ' 4. "The Constitution recognizes slaves as prop erty, and pledges the Federal Government to pro. tect it. And Congress cannot exercise any more authority over that description of property than it may constitutionally exercise over property of any other kind." ; - ; . ; - - : 5. " The act of Congress, therefore, prohibiting a citizen of the United -States taking with him his slaves when he removes -to the Territory in ques tion to reside,' is an exercise of authority over pri vate property which is not warranted by the Con stitution, and the removal of the plaintiff -by his owner to that Territory gave him no title to free dom " 6. " While it re nains a Territory Congress may legislate over it within the scope of its constitution al powers in relation to citizens ; of the United States and may establish a territorial government, and the form of this local government must be regulated by the discretion of Congress; but with powers not exceeding those which Congress itself by the Constitution is authorized to exercise over citizens of the United States in respect to their rights of persons or of property." - W.

France with China, will be long, desultory and unproductive.;' The defeat of the British flotilla last year has elated the Chinese beyond - measure,- and they have made extraordinary preparations for the coming contest. The vastneas of v the population,, even if it offered no resistance, would render an armed occupacy of the country almost as impracticable as the occu pacy of the Pacific. - Nothing would belong to the invaders but such waves of this great ocean of humanity as might be just under their heels. , To blockade a few ports and hold some important towns, will be all that can be accomplished. .-. The idea of going to war seriously with this enormous and absurd mass of humanity, is,-" beneath, the dignity of England and France.

' r '-" On the 15th ult., the Senate Select Committee on the Harper's Ferry raid made a report, signed vLDy Senators Mason," Davis : and . Fitch. 4 1 They re- .-j view at great length all the circumstances connect ed with that raid, and quote largely from the volu minous testimony. They speak of the insecurity of the peace and safety of some of the Southern States, in the existing condition of. the public Northern mind. , - It may, not', they sayj . become them to suggest a duty in those States to provide by proper, legislation against the ' machinations within their borders destructive of the peace of their eon federated; Republics, but it did become them fully to expose, the consequences resulting from the present .license .there,, existing to the peace and integrity of the -Union, ..which is neces sarily to involve in its continuance.- c -.. ' "The Tepbrt also traces' the history of the4 large armament collected by John Brown, at Harper's Ferry? The committee say there can be nodoubt that Brown's plan was to commence a servile war on the borders of Virginia, which he expected to extend,' and which he believed his resources " were sufficient to extend through that State and through tne entire coutu.,Xt does not seem, ne en trusted even his iutimate friends with his plans fully, even after they were out for execution; nor have the committee been able - clearly to trace a knowledge of them to" any one." The committee after mature consideration, are not prepared: to suggest any legislation-which in their opinion would be adequate to prevent like occurrences iu the future.-"-'r"-''.';-'; ''T"': " 7'ir . ' -1;t The report speaks of the constitutional duty to protect States against in vasiondouiestic insurrecr tion, eto. Brown's raid was simply the act of law-, less ruffianism, under the sanction of no public or political authority. vSo far as the safety of the public property is involved, the committee would earnestly recommend "that such provisions should be made by the Executive, or, if necesary, by law to 'occupy, under an adequate military guard,,! the publie armories and arsenals of the United States, in the same manner that the uavy 3-ards are now protected. ' . . ' , ,"' " . ;-The minority of the committee (Senators Colla mer and Doolittle) make a minority report. .They say there is no evidence that any other citizen except those who were with Brown, were accessory to any outbreak or invasion by contributions, threats or otherwise; nor , any proof' jhat any others had any knowledge of the conspiracy or its purposes in the year 1 859. They say,! too, there is no evi dence to show that there was a conspiracy to rescue Brown ot his associates from the prison in Virgin ia. " - f.--. j, '4t .s ;i ; r i, . Time and. reflection have happily dissipated much of the alarm' and 'suspicion, and shown that this was but an offehot from the exciting outrages and lawlessness in Kansas, commenced and contin ued there by an armed invasion of that territory, to control its own people "the elections and the Government, Tor the introduction aud perpetuity of slavery in that territory, on one hand, and resis tance or defiance on the other.

You put your knee against the horse's fore head and pull his ears a few. times, and in less than fifteen minutes he will be up eating.. w I can get witnesses' to testify to the fact. , I have ncvei known a horse to die to which the . above remedy was given. . - "?1 . . A CL, Ballard. tr s TniLWASHOE Massacre. A 'correspondent of the AltaXJaliforniatl thus describes the, killing of Major Ormsby, at the Indian battle and . massa cre of the whites, near Pyramid Lake: '.-,.'' Poof Meredith, Ood never made a 'better man, and young'Joe Baldwin, both fought as -brave as over did any man, and to think that Baldwin, who was only about fiftecn years of age'should act 'so cooly and so bravely, lie fought like a tiger And then there was my jrarra friendMajor -Ormsby; poor fellow, be was shot in the,uppcr, vpart"of the mouth with an arrow in the beginning of the fight but he did uot mind it at all, till the poison did its work. - I have it front one of the ; men that held , his head, while another pulled the arrow, that they got the arrow out, but the barb' remained. . -.-; . Then he. was shot in the arm and again, through the shoulders, from one side to the other, still he remained on his horse till it was shot from; tin der him and then I.e took'ybung Baldwins nmU;, anl remained on if imtil he could stand 'it hot lon ger, and then Bald wiu helped to take hiiu off hia mule and placed his saddle-bags under his -'head, when Ormsby "says "go on boya, l.you . can do lio more for me!" and ina'few mitmles ,he! was no more-3 One Indian was killed in the net of scalp ing him and" Baldwin killed another Indian," very near him that was in the act of scalping another of the party.

A writer speaks thus: i 'L -5 y - That this lake should be all salt is no anomaly. All large bodies of water into which streams dis charge themselves," while they have severally no outlet, are or should be salt: Tlf one siich is fresh, that is an anomaly, indeed. Lake Utah, probnbly, receives as much saline matCir as Salt Lake,-but she discharges it through the Jordan, and remains herself frcsh;' while Salt Lake, having no ifsue, save by evaporation, is, probably, the saltiest body of water on earth. The " ocean is comparatively fresh; even the Mediterranean, at r Leghorn' is not half so salt. I am ; told that three barrels of this wateryields a barrel of salt that 1 seems rather strong, yet its intense saltness, no one who has not had it in his eyes, his mouth, his nostrils,' can foc alize. You can no more sink in' it than in 0 -elay bank; but a very little of it in your Jungs would suffice to strangle you. You make way in from a hot, rocky beach, over ' a chaos of volcanic baxalt that is trying to the feet., but at -'the depth of a yard-or more -you have'' a fine and bottom, and here the bathing is delightful. ' The water is of a light green color ' for about ten or twenty rods, then "deeply darkly, beautifully blue."- No fish can live in it; no frogs abide "iu it; few birdn are ever seen dipping in it.
