The case of Overman vi. Cleinnion' Ad

action of debt on a bond for 5000 dol
lar!, alledged by the defendant, to have
been given fur the purpose of procuring
the interest or aid ol the plaintiff in con
lummaling a marriage between his intes
tate and a Mrs. Hargrave. This trial
occupied the wholf pi' thf dajr ort Tues

to the Supreme Court. Graham for the
Plaintiff, Nash and Morchead for the de
fendant. The case of the Slate vt. Samuel, (a
slave of Dr. John M'Aden,) for the mur
der of Peter, a slave of Mr. Ashley G.
Lea, wa tried on Friday and consumed
(he whole of that day. The Jury, after
in able charge from the Jud-e, returned
a verdict of guilty, and on Saturday the
Prisoner was sentenced to be hung. Mo

His master is bound, by the law of
this State, to pay all the expenses incur
red by his commitment, trial &c. which,
together with the costs of defending the
accused, as humanity and interest dic
tate, may amount to hundreds of dollars.
The fifth Amendment to the Constitu
tion of the United States says that pri
vate property shall not be taken foru6
ki u without juat compensation.
Now, in our ignorance of law, we are
under the impression that this Amend
ment and the law of the State alluded to
are directly at variance ; and .we should
be pleased to learn from authority how
they are reconciled by lawyers. If a
man's horses and wagons be pressed into
the puUlick service during war, he re
ceives 'compensation," and so does he
whose buildings are levelled and im-
provements destroyed, at such a time, for
the purpose of erecting on their site
works of defence against an invading
foe ; but we are under the jmpresssion
that the Amendment extends far beyond
such cases .as these, and will reach the
supposed case of the slave. It is true
that a slave, when condemned to death
by the laws, is not taken "lor publick
use," but e consider publick good and
publick use to be in this case convertible
termsr and considering the slave in the
light of property alone, the loss which his
master sustained by his death, should
not, it appears to us, be aggravated by
his being compelled to sacrifice other pro
perty to satisfy the demands of a law
which seemt to be oppressive;

I now hope that the public mind will
be tranquilned public eon6dence, re-

the new Senate, Which is admitted to be
one or great talent and patriotism, will
not disappoint public expectation, I feel
venr confident. All
no doubt be granted, and Maryland will
continue to rank high in her character,
resources, public spirit, and enterprise.
The great public works-will be comple

commercial emporium of the countrv. '

the amendment which was copied by his

Mr. Anthony, a devoted friend of the
