It is adMitted that 'no onb can be excluded froin carriage by a public carrier on account of color reli , rious belief, political relations, - br_preju -t dice. 'But 4he defendant ztt`sh., - ed the, Court to say that' if the jury fladihat the seat which the plainttr was directed to tiace, tecti - in.•alkrettpeet! a comfortable, safe, and con venient 8;04 not inferior fn. any of these respects to the one she tear directed to leave, she could not 'recover.

The simple question-is, whether a public carrier may, in the ; exercise of his private right of property; and in the due- per formance of his pnblic ditty, separate : passen gers`by any other well defined characteristic than that of sex. The ladies' car is known upon every well regulated railroad, implies no loss of equal right-on the part of the excluded sex, and its propriety is doubted by none. This question must be at:pith - 4 upon reason able grojuids. -If there be no clear and yeas , . enable difference to base it upon, separation cannot be justified ty, mere Prejudice. Ner is merit a test; The negro may be proud of his, service in tlte field as a defender of his coun try. _ But it was not tholight itidefensible-to separate even white soldiers.frOni other pass engers. There isa clear and well feudal' diff erence between the cavil and military charac ter, and the separation of soldiers from citi- zens implied no want of equality, but a sound regulation of the right of transit. • TIM right of the carrier to separate his pas sengers is founded upon two gropindll---his iight private property in the -metfns of con veyance and the public interest The private meats he uses belongs wholly to himself, and inkhes the right of control for the protection of itifi own interest, as well rt4the performanco ditis public duty. Ile maltkuse his property therefore in a reasonable manner. It is not an unreasonable regulation to seatn passe' ders. so as to preserve order and decorum, and toi 'prevent contacts and • collisions, arising 'from natural or well known cust?mary repugnan des, which are likely to breed disturbanWs, by a pmmiscuoui sitting.

' The right to separate lacing clear IC proper cases, and it being the subject of a sound reg. ulati on, the questisin remains to be considered. is, whether there's inichailiffererich- between the' White and black t races within itilw plate re mitting from nal:" laic and custom as Makes its reasonable ground, of separation: The qnl: - .n rs one ofdifference, not of superiority or inferiOrity. Why. the Creator made , one black arid tl 4 ic othdr , White, we know not; but 'the fact is stiMarelit, ' and the -races distinet, each -producing, its own kind, following the peculiar law orits constitution. Conceding equality, with naturesas perfect and rights as sacred,. Yet God leas madtthem with those natural instincts andfcelings which He always imparts to Ilia creatures when He 'intends that. they shall not overstep the natur al boundaries De has assigned- to ;them. The .natural law which-forbids their intermarriage and that social , amalgamation which: leads to a corruption of races, is as clearly Divine as that, which.inipartcd to tliemdinrent natitres. The tendency of inti Mate, social intercourse is to amalgamation contrary to the law of ra ces. Tliehepamtion of the White find black races upon the surface of the globe is a fact equally apparent is's°, it is not ne nessary to speqnlate, bpi the fact of h distribu tion otinen, by race and color is as visible in the provideotial.arrangetaent of the - earth as that of heat and co'l4 . ,The natural 'separation of the races k therefore.- ran =undeniable - fact, ~W6llll- 1 16etal- 6 1 td their amalgamation arewypngnant to the law of nature. From social 'titnalgamation It but estop to illicit intercourse, and but anoth er to intermarringe.Plut to assert separateness , is not to declare inferiority in eithr—it is not to declare one a slave and the Other a free man; that would be-.to draw the illogical se quence of infrioritY from difference only. It is siroply tesay that . following the order of Divine-providence, human authority aught not to compel these widelfseparated races to intermix. The. right of each to be free from social omtactis as chic as to be free from' In termarriugc. Theformer may be lesa.rcpul !die as a condition, but not less entitled to `protebtion to a tight. When -therefore, we declare air glit tojmaintain:scpartite relations as far as reasonably pmcticable;but in a spirit of kindness and charity, and . with a duo re gard to equality of rights, it is not prejudice , nor csstc,..nor injustice of any kind, but sim ply to suffer men to frillow the law of races, I established by the Creator himself, and not to corepelthem r to intermix contrary to their in ,st i nets. . Nor mit we disregard the laws and cutitcans of the State. Indeed these must be imp. guide, leavingit to the Legislaitire to correct the er rors of the law, or its departure from that jus tice which should ever be its foundation. ...It is unnecessary to recur to the original condi tion - of negroes as slaves in, Pennsylvania, or to trace the legislation of the provincr dis tinguishing them flint freemen- Nor cacti we, for the purpose of defining the status of the negro refer to the great law of emancipa tion in 1780, whose the most beau fifth; just and exprelsive - gfer Irreiiiixi to a human statute, only profftixxl• to extend to the black race "portion" of onr own freedom.-- We,have slater tt,a annuthoritadve gnide,the F ern edcasi on of this con a t in 1831,in the case of Hobbs vs. Fogg, 8 Watts, 553. The opinion cranes from the pen of the late C. J. Gibson; and bears the imprint of his remarkable letel-1 lect.: It is there alloWla _from ilic.Ptlvf* tntions and customs of theatate, ,and from a ,fdrtner decision of the High Cotirt of Errors and Appeals, thatthe etaturaof the iegrbiever fell within the term "freemen" 'in the several constitutions; and that the emancipation act Of 1780 dui not elevate him to the citizenship of the State. And In 1838 the people of this Commonwealth, by An eißress amendment of their Constitution, drew. 'the line directly .fietireen thc‘white citizens and -black inhabi iantai'of the State.
