Territory'Of/tUAli* -
In reply to a resolution of the Ilonas of Repreaen.
Ullve of iho 16th ultimo, lbs President of tho U.
State* lately transmitted to the House a report from
the Secretary of State, to whom the resolution wee
referred, in regard to the Territory of Utah; its ac
tual condition; whether tho due execution of the
I laws of the United States hae been resitted or ob*
latruoted there; whether there hae been any nolaap
I plication of tho public funde tbero; end whether the
| personal rights of our citizens have been interfered
I with any manner.
i The report la accompanied by a letter from Hoo.
[John M. Bornhlscl, Delegate from Utah,to tho Pres
ident, in which Mr. Bernhlael details tho oiroum.
[stances of tho organization of the Territory, tho or.
I rival there, in July last, of the officers (except Judge
Brocchus) not before residing in tho Territory, tho
apparent unanimity and good will subsisting between
' tho officers and the people at largo at the data of his
leaving Iho Territory for, Washington, (Ist of
September,) and contradicts certain statements
(supposed to be written by Judge Brocchus) publish*
ed in the papers of tho United Stales, respecting tho |
alleged disaffection, fanatical intolerance, and open
profanity of the Governor and people of Utah. 1
Mr. Bernhlsol denies that Governor Young, in his
public spccch|oflho24lh of July lasl,being tho anni
versary of the Mormon's arrival in the'Salt Lake
Valley, spoke disrespectfully of General Taylor, or
indeed spoke of him at all, and argues that therefore
tbo * 4 attack ” of Judge Brocchus on tho Governor
and- people in a speech of his on tho occasion of
addressing them to procure a-block of marble for
the Washington Monument Society was a “ most
wanton insult*' on the people and Governor,' and
“ impolitic in a judicial officer desirous to keep the
peace.".- He also denies.that at tho celebration on
the 24th of July last there were any remarks uttered
by any one of the ten or twelve orators of tho day
bearing the slightest disrespect towards the Govern*
ment of the United States, and asserts lliai Judge
Broodies (the putative author of the published state,
men!) Was hot in thoTerriloryllll more than three
weeks after the said celebration, nnd therefore could
have had so personal knowledge that any disrespect
or profanity had beoo uttered.
Next is a letter oflhe 32d of September from Judge
Z. Snow lo Iho President,’accounting for his not
joining Judge* Brandenbury and Brocchus and
Secretary Harris in their rotarntolhe United Slates.
Nexl'is a letter from Gov. Brigham Young, an*
nouncing the act of (be Territorial Legislature in
its appointment of Judge Snow over all the Courts of
the. Territory, and of hie own [Gov. Young’s] tem
porary appointment of Dr. Willard Richards to tho
place of tho retired Secretary of the Territory. Mr.
6. D. Harris.
Noil is a detailed report of Messrs. Rranderbury
and Orocohua and Harris, giving their reasons for
willimawing from the Territory and the official du
tics they had -undertaken therein. The report roll
cratca lire charges against the Governor and people
of Utah, os set forth in (he statement first referred
to by Mr. Dernheiacf, and by him controverted.
Next ia a letter from Secretary Harrla to Mr.
Webster, enclosing documents relative to hie refusal
to rccogniso lhe LcgUUliva Council , and House of
Representatives as 1 legally elected and constituted
bodice.
Next is a letter of Mr. Burnliisel to the President
of the U.,Stales, making his * prompt, unqualified,
and peremptory negative of the truth * of the charges
brought against the Governor and CouDCil'of Utah
by the retired officer*.
Then follows a letter from Gov* Brigham-Young,
vindicating himself and the Legislature of Utah,and
complaining of (he failure of the two Judges and
Secretary to perform their duties.
And, lastly, s memorial to (he President of the
United Sluice from the members of the Legislature,
Substantially (he same aa the preceding, and praying
the appointment of officers iri place of (bo retired
functionaries. .
Ooa PmUDCLfHU Mint.—Mr. Secretary Corwin,
in hie able report, alludes to the manner in which
the affairs ofour mint are conducted in highly com*
mendslory terms. Us says t
•' “ The operations of (ho mint during tho past year
have been conducted will) efficiency, and with highly
satisfactory results. Under tho present system the
depositors promptly receive the value of their bullion
so lt Is assayed ; and though (ho deposits are
made in large macaco at short intervals, on the arri
val of the California steamers, yellbo assays are
made and (lie payments commenced usually within
forty.cighl hours, and the whole generally, completed
within an average of five or aix dtys after these
heavy amounts of bqllion—frequently hy . two,and
three, hundred different depositors—are received at
(ho.mint; end the.whole duly is performed without
any. charge,to the depositors,except a mere fraction
al per centage for the osluul cos{ of.separating (ho
bullion. Illtbelievcd that equal facilities are not
presented to individuals bythe mints,of any other
nation as are now given by the mint of .ltio United

Dying Likk an Aatisx.—An old fiddler, recently
found dead in Parle, from the fames of 'charcoal, on
the-floor of his garret, baa left to posterity the follow
ing auto-obituary, which certainly could only have
been written by a Frenchman. It was found near
(ho body, which was in a state of decomposition when
discovered:
; “ 1 had talonl onee and have occupied the hlgheat
places in the orchestras of our first theatres. 1
remember the greatest , days of the Opera comlque,
when, disdaining the noise of our modern-music, we
produced sentimental harmonica which went straight
to the soul and the heart, 1 have made a great deal
of money, and have lived Like an aitlal—freely—and
so I ahull die, Uko many artiste, in misery. You
who road the letter of the old fiddler, take warning
by my ease. .Young men of lelent, put in practice
this old adage, , that you.must.lay up something for
m jainy day.,, 1 leave pogleeted it, and die in penury.
The compassion of my fellow artiste would havo
doubtless come to my assistance, but I had too much
prldp.. 1 should have blushed at recalling myself to
the memory of (huso who had known mp.in my days
of prosperity. 1 preferred, though! could hardly
hold my bow, on account of my great age, to take
to the streets, and become a strolling musician. I
procured by this means the bare necessaries of life,
but every day rendered me more and more incapable.

to gain a prise In (lie great lottery. 1 had only been

Tits Intesioa or Africa.—A wilier in the West,
minister Review, who lived for several years on the
Western coast, gives ah interesting description of the
Interior ofthst country. He says a aisle of olvlll*
satioh exists among some of the tribes, such as has
not been suspected hitherto by those who have
jndged only; from suqh account* have been given
of tribe* with which travellers have cpmo In eon*
tact. They cannot bo rogatded as savages, having
organised townships, fixed habitations, with regular
dofeneei about their cities, engaging in agriculture,
and the manufacture of oolton cloths for clothing,
which (bey ornament with handsome dyee of native
production,and exhibit handicraft in their conversion
of iron and precious metals into articles of use and
ornament. Tho merchant entrust their goods to the
care of native traders, In various parts of (he coun
try, stored In huts, without protection, yet preserved
in entire safely, acta nf robbery being very rare.—
Native traders are held in high respect, especially if
wealthy, and in some oases .whole tribes engage In
(he business of itinerant traders, no impediment
being offered’ to them evert' among nationa where a

We publish below the Message.of Got; Jobrstok*
oit returning wltU hi* objection! (lie blllpsasedby
the Uil Legislature, repealing * section of ibo'Kid* (
napping Law: i
To the Senate of Penntyltania Senator*—An 1
act entitled “ An act to repeal the Sixth Section of i
an act entitled an act to prevent kidnapping and
preserve tho public peace, prohibit the exercise of
certain powers heretofore exercised by Judges; Jus*
ticos of the Peace,and Jailors of this Commonwealth,
and to repeal certain Slave Laws, 1 * has been held un.
der advisement since the adjournment of the lakt
Legislature.
In obedience to the provisions of the Constitution,
I return this hill to the Senate, whore it originated,
without my approval, and with my reasons for with*
holding it. To these reasons, founded on the clearest
senses of duty and of official responsibility, 1 invite
your candid attention. They are now, fortlto lime,
'given, because now for tho first time since tho passage
of this act, has an opportunity offered to confer, with
thoao to whom my reasons may bo important, and
with whom they moy be operative. .' : „
The section proposed to be repealed ia in these
words: “It shall not bo lawful to-Use any jail or
prison of this Commonwealth for the detention of any
person claimed as a fugitive from servitude or labor,
except in cases where jurisdiction may lawfully b?
. taken by any judge, under the provisions,of this act;
and any jailor or keeper of any prison, or oilier per.
ron who shall offend against tho provisions of this
I section shall, on conviction thereof, pay s fine of five
( hundred dollars; one half thereof for tho uso of this
1 Commonwealth and the other to the person who pro
-1 secutcs; and shall moreover, thenceforth bo removed
from office,'and bo. incapable of holding such t)ffic°
of jailor or keeper of a prison at arty time during his
’ natural life.** It ia a part of a law passed in the year
1847, under the Executive Administration of my
predecessors, and by voices unanimous, or nearly so,
of both branches of the Legislature.
The bill under consideration Is confined to the re-
peal of the section prohibiting the use of our prisons
as places of detention for .fugitives from labor. If
the legislation proposed authorises llio uses of the
prisons, it is in repugnance to tho Constitution of the
United States as expounded by (ho Supreme Court.
By a decision made in derogation of the local stat
utes of Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court of the U.
Slates held, in so many words, (hat all Stale Legists-,
tion on the subject of the reclamation of fugitives
from labor, wjioihor to obstruct, or, to aid it, hinder
or promote, Is. absolutely and entirely.prohibited.—
Tho legislation of Congress supercedes all State le>
glslation on tho subject, and by necessary implibaton
prohibits it.
The States 'cannot enact auxiliary provisions on
the subject. This is the very language. If, there-
fore, an act of Assembly were passed, authorizing the
several County Commissioners to erect safe houses of
detention for persons claimed aa fugitives from labor,
under such regulations as the. Legislature or its a
pents might, prescribe, for the. reception and safe
keeping of the Inmates, such a law would be uncon* •
stitutionol, and consequently void,'and any single
discontented citizcn-of a-County might"have it so
declared..
I am unable to see any. difference in this respect
between the special construction of such places of
detention, regulated and controlled by Slate authority
and .Slate agents,’and the permlksion to ; ass 'those
already erected and regulated by general laws., li
is the State the question.uf.tho
alleged fugitive and hit cliimant, and such’laws (ho
Supreme Court of the United Slates have pronounced
unconstitutional. It it not the leglsUtiun of Penn,
sylvania that line closed our jails against (he reccp.
tion of such fugitives, but u formal decision.of.the
Supremo Court, declaring our former statute on this
subject unconstitutional; a decision which, until re
versed, ia binding on every department of ihia gov
ernment.
The Governor then refers to the opinions of several
Judges of the Supreme Court, end adds t
This judgment of the Supremo Court of the United
Stales determines the law for my guidance, end for
yours, whatever mny be our individual convictiona
upon the aubject.,, If, then, a prison cannot be built,
Under slave laws, for the detention of fugitive*—if a
prison ajready built, and under Slate regulations and
rules, respecting its inmates, cannoVbs used; and if,
in aliott, all State legislation, of whatever kind, is
prohibited by a solemn deererof the Supreme Court
—ia it not more than .idle to psae an sot restorative
of IbWs thtls eiproMly declared and khnwn In advance
to be unconstitutional. The writ of habeas corpus
would run into these unconstitutional placet of de.
tention ; thd Federal Judiciary would themselves
have to decide;\hc question’. The Stale Judges, in
’ coontics whcio there is no United States Judge, and
, wltire the fugitive is committed by'a mere Cummis*
sinner, would be required to issue the writ of right;
i and that whieh the friends of tbia.repeal have claimed
I aa a greet boon Ip. lha claimants, would bo worso
than a mockery.
The claim he has new pi) the Marsha! and sureties,
fur indemnification fur the escape of his servants,
would be'Converted into's barren claim against a
count; jailor, whoso first duty would bo to discharge
a prisoner thus held, if ho claimed his liberty. Mot
so was the law formerly, and before it was' decided
that all State.legislation on the lubjeclls prohibited
--not so will U be hereafter, if the principle of the
decision of the Supreme Court be practically oarfied
out, and the whole vexed and vexatious, subject, be
Ipfl to the administration of the U« Slaleaofßcers. .
The Act of Congress of the 18th, September, 1050,
commonly known as the Fugttiyo Slave Dill, would
seem to favor the same views entertained by Judge
Story, and, pronounced in tho decision to 'which re
ference hat been made. 11l whole (cHur ptiowa )his,
and more than one of lie detailed provisions confirm
it. Tho custody .of the fugitive, authority,
ii almost fdrbidden.
The Marshal and sureties are. rpn.de,piibjcot. to. a
pecuriisry lUbllilyToran escape, which, ns the Su
premo Court of the United flutes have'decided, in a
precisely analogous case, !* dofesfed the' instant the
prisoner is transferred to a local jail. . 1
In counties where there Is no Marshal, the agent
of (he Commissioners Is charged with the exclusive
custody of the fugitive, and : i«’ allowed, by the Bth
section, his expenses for keeping him lh‘ouvlo(ly,knd
providing him with food and lodging during' hie do
lenlion.
Surely no one can pretend to soy, that tills is not
a full and exclusive exercise of federal power on the
subject. If so, thV principle of constitutional law.
lo Milch I have referred. Is and the Iq.
filiation oft Slate Is l.aiisfer (his custody lo a loci I
prison is prohibited. Is it not, then, most conducive
to peace and good order, and (lie harmonious admin
istration of the law, that this whole subject be loft
where the Constitution places It, In the heads of the
United Slates authorities.
1 have thus frankly stated to the Senate’ my res.
sons for withholding my approval of this bill. ■ I have
limited them strictly, guarding myself against any
expression liable to misconstruction to considerations
of constitutional law, I ask for them a candid and
careful consideration.

designed. The inmates of (no house looked hap*
py and contented, and when questioned ae to their
wants and wishes, invariably replied, “that they
had every comfort they could ask for.** Their
clothing Is abundant and of good quality, their diet
nutricious and healthful, and in fact every' neces*
sary comfort is provided for them. Aliy who are
sick receive the advice and attention of the regular.
Physician of the establishment, careful and kind
nurses being'employed to wail upon them. Labor
is provided for such as are able to perform it in
conducling.the business of the house and farm, and
all who have sufficient strength participate in this
healthful exercise. Children who are born in the
house or brought there in infancy have proper oaro
and attention bestowed upon them, and when they
havd attained sufficient strength and years pul
out to service with suitable persons whp. engage
to teach them some'useful trade or employment. |
The number of paupers;registered on the books of,
the Institution on the first of November, 1850, was
127; there have been admitted since then 201,
seven of whom are boarded in. private families,
making the whole number, provided for during the
year 328; of these nine have died, nine beembound
out, and 198 have been relieved and discharged or
have absconded; leaving 116Jn (he house on (he
Ist of November 1851. la addition (o the above,
820 transient paupers have been admitted without
regular orders from -Justices, and their wants sup*
plied. Notwithstanding' the repeated reoommen*
nations from different boards of Visitors in its fa*;
vofy committee learn with regret, thalas yet,
no suitable building has been provided which may
be used for hospital purposes, and-more especially'
for those who may be suffering from contagious
diseases; we again urge apon.the attention of the
Directors the necessity for. such a building. Upon
the whole, your committee are satisfied that all
whphave been' concerned in the management of
the fhstiiut’ion for the year just expired, have zeal*
ousiy and faithfully performed ‘their respective
duties,'and they know of no other 'establishment
of similar kind in the State which has been more
Judiciously and economically-conducted.
