:The More enlightened writers on inter

renounce his allegiance to the government

laws, such as are in existence in some of
the monarchies of Europe, claiming the

the law of_nationei.
The government of the 'United States
hasilviays taken this view of the subject,
,
and, one of the causes of the last war with
Great Britain, wail in vindication of this
right.- 'The right of a citizen, or subject,

NObly Said
We had intended giving our readers
the following extract with which Judge
Swan, of the Supreme Court of Ohio, con
cludsd his opinion in the Oberlin Slave
ease, in an article which appeared in our
last issue, btitiot,the time it was prepared
we could not lay our-hands upon it. We
have since found it; and in view of
the nobleness of •'it' we consider it still
worthy a place in our columns. It may
be -encingh_toi remind our: readers
that the 'Republican party. which met, in
Convention to nominate
.a candidate for
Judge of the Suprepr Court. a day or two,
subsequent to the avowal-of these4enty;
ments, repudiated Judge Swan, who had
been elected by them •to . his last term,.
and Selected atother Man: Of course one
who would not have the courage to avow
such noble sentiments-:
"As a citizen I would not deliberately
violate the constitution or the, law by.in
tPrference with fugitives from justice.. But
if a weary, frightened slave would appeal
to me to protect him Irons his pursuers, it
is possible I might momentarily forget my
allegiance to the law and constitution and
give him a cover from those who are on
his track—there are, no doubt, many
slascholders who would thus follow the
• instincts of human sympathy. And, if I
did it, and was prosecuted, condemned
and imprisoned, and brought by my coun
sel before this tribunal on a habeas corpus,
and was then permitted ,to pronounce
judgment in my own case,l trust I should
have moral courage to say before God and
; the country, as I am now compelled to
say under the solemn • duties of a judge,
bound by my official oath to sustain the
!supremacy of the constitution and the
law: "The prisoner must be remanded."

in the highest degree complimentary to

were adopted: ~

The "Chevalier" Again
We observe that, Chevalier Forney is in
a bad humor about an editorial that recent
ly appeared in our columns, and makes it
the occasion of an attack upon Senator
Bigler, in his usual slang style, reprinting
an extract from a private letter to Mr-
Stanton, &c. :The Col. should endeavor
I to keep cool this hot weather, or he may
get himself into a dangerous sweat. Sen
ator BIGLER has no , more to do with the
:editorial in question than Col. 'Forney ;
nor.do wo know whether it pleased or dis
pleased hint ; but we do know, that i(..we
were going to select a politcal writer for
our paper, we should prefer Bigler to For.
ney, because the former would not only
write correct doctrine, but he would put.
more in ono column than the latter would
in two.
The Col. is specially offended because
we said Th. Press was losing its influence;
but - kill ho deny..that within the last
year it has lost 'party all its Democratic
subscribers is 'lbis Sect ion of the State;
l and as a consequence its influece in the
• Democratic ranks.
That of Col. Forney for which we have
the greatest contempt, and which is sink
ling him most, in the estimation of gentle
! man, is his habit of betraying confidence
and,
.publishing private letters. We have
a private letter on file, written some years
since, by Col. Forneypin behalf of Mr.
Forrest against his wife, which he can
see in the newspapers if he desire it ;
and which lie will see so soon as we see
another private letter in The Press.
