The Sunbury and Lrle railroad compainy having failed to negotiate Its mortgage bonds in their present condition, the expectations confidently entertained of nil early com pletion of that most importstn t improvement, have nut been realized. The work during the pesi year, however, although greatly retarded, has been continually program ing; upwards of ono million of dollars having been ex pended on tho line from November, 3859, to November, 1860. The whole length of the road, from the borough of Sunbury to the harbor on the lake, at the city of Erie, lo 288 miles 3 . of which 148 miles are now finished and in operation, and 115 miles of the remaining portion of the line are graded; leaving but 25 miles yet to grade. Penn sylvauia Is largelylnterested in the early completion and success of this great thoroughfare, not mily because she Is the creditor of the company to the amount of three and a half millions of dollars, but for the additional, and more cogent reason, that the improvement, when completed, will open ono of the most important channels el trade between the city of Philadelphia and the great lakes of the west, at the beet harbor on Lake Brie, entirely with in the limits of our own State, which has ever been cdn templated. It sll, moreover, develop the resources of a large portion of North-Western Pennsylvania, abounding with the richest minerals, and a lumber region of Unaur pulsed excellence, which the mouifinnt hand of the State has hitherto totally neglected. By disposing of her branch canals to that company, in exchange for its mort gage bonds, the State has already largely aided In the Construction of this great work; and it may be necessary. to insure its completion, that further legislation should be had In order to render the means of the company available. It is evident that a liberal policy, on the part of the government, will promote alike the interests of the Commonwealth and the railroad company; neverthe less great care should be takou to protect, as far as poesi hie, thu debt now dill/ from the company toil,r State, If all prop sitlons which may be made for a change In the securities now held by the Commonwealth, be carefully Considered by the Legislature, and no melte yielded, than sound economy demands, with ,proper provision for ;be due application r f whatever means may be realized, it Is believed, that sufficient relief. can las granted to the com pany, to enablelt promptly to finish the road, while the security remaining wilt be fully adequate to insure the ultimate payment of the principal and Interest of the bonds of the railroad company now held by the common. wealth. . oft 00 100,000 00 commend this subject in the Legislature, as one enti tled to its rarebit consideration, as well on account i, s •l of its vast intportanee to teal aloe of the Stale which the railroad passes—to the clileit and Erie—and to the railroad company—as to the • Commonwealth herself. Premising that whatever policy tt may be thought expedient to pursue, should be adopt ed solely with reference to the protection and further ance of the public interests. The attention of the Legislature is again invited to the subject of teneml education. At the present juncture It presents peculiar claims. The experience of a quarter of a century has satisfied the proverbially cautious people of Pennsylvania, of the adaptedness of the common school system to their wants and condition. No lose has the severe ordeal of the past three years shown its cape- ' bility to endure those sudden reverses which occasionally prostrate the other interests of the community. Involv ing greater expenditure than the rest of the departments of government, and that, ton, mainly drawn from direct taxation, it is a proud fact, that, while must of the enter prises of society have been seridusly embarrassed, and bdtbis of them suspended, by, the pecuniary crisis of 1657, ' our educational system Las not been retarded in any ap preciable degree. I n the 'edtitrary.its operations have been maintained, to an extent Which plainly. indicates that our citizens fully appreciate its value. Contrasting its main results clarity , the past year, with those of 1857, we find that the whole number of pupils now in the schools,: Is f 17,414, being an Increase of 44,422; these were taught In 11,577 sehouls, 621 more than in 1657, du ring ,an average term of five months and five and one half days, at a cost of fifty-six cents per pupil, per mouth, by 14,065 teachers, being 5:9 more than in 1557. Thu entire expenditure of the system, fur the past year, , including that of the School Department, is 62,638050 SO. These figures afford some idea of the magnitude of the ' operations of the system ; but neither wools nor figures can adequately express the importance of its influence upon the present, Sr its relations to the future. 39,513,053 a; $101,213 00 18,60 02 4,448 8i 802 60 .$'i4.071 TO $4'0,630 00 30.1 , 67.205 72 . 381,200 1,0 . 100,000 00 .$99 Oa 00 16.074 80 . 4.44948 707 20 EM 2ct, i2l 78 .

Pennsylvania also boasts her collegiate, academical, scientific, professional and philanthropic institutions, • and numerous private schools of every grade. In this respect, she is second tom) : me , nber of the confederacy ; but, from mere want of attention to the proper -sta tistics, she has thus far been ranked far be low her just standard. The present is not the proper time to,..t:enev grants to institu tions of these classeS • which ,heretofore4e , ceived State aid. If it were, the public au thorities do not possess the requisite data for a safe and just extension of liberality. The period will arrive when all public edu cational agencies must be included in one great system for the elevation of mind and morals ; and when the State will, no doubt, patronize every proper effort in the good work. For the details of the system, during last school year, the attention of the ecgis lature is respectfully referred to the annual report of the Common School Department, herewith submitted. I desire again, specially, to call the at tention of the General Assembly to the Farmer's High School of Pennsylvania, as an institution which proposes to accomplish an object which has never been attained in this country--the supply of a want which has ever been felt hy the agricultural com munity : the education or their sons, at once, to -scientific knowledge, habitual in dustry, and practical skill, to fit them for the associations of rural life, and the occu pation chosen for them by their lathers. The gains of the farmer, however certain, are small. The education of his sons sllol.lld, therefore, be measured by the nature of his business. There seems to be no practical mode of cheapening education, but by com bining an amount of expenditure, within the ability of a farmer, with the daily la- W'r of the student, so as to make the insti tution so nearly self sustaining as to bring it within the reach of that class who con stitute so important a branch of the indus try of our people. The original design of this school embraced the accommodation of four hundred students, a number essen tial to the economical working of the sys tem ; and, although the applications for admission are numberless, the utmost ef forts of the trustees have not enabled them to complete more than one-thirdlitt the building, or to accommodate more than a corresponding number of students:, Many individuals throughout the State,convinced of the merit of an institution which prom- ses so much good, have contributed libe- ; rally to what has already been done ; and the board of trustees have labored with a zeal which cannot fail to commend itself to the kind feeling of al? our citizens. Scien title education has advanced the interests I of every avocation of life—agriculture far less than any other—and for the manifest i reason that it has "not reached it to the sann'extent, and never will reach it, unless ; the body be educated to the plow, as well 1 , as the mind to the philosophical principles which the plow's work developes. I have always looked upon the Farmer's High School with peculiar favor, as well . because'of my own convictions of its.pro raised usefulness, as the favor which has .s,to.git.too (y) .1.1111,R00 72 $324,991 43 • Atlr.:4z•:*4l - , 1 7 - M4 . . / - • LEBANON, PA., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1861. hitherto been shown to it by the Represen tatives of the people. Its charter requires an annual exhibition of its receipts, expen ditures and operations generally, and these will doubtless be laid before you. By the act passed by the last Legisla ture, establishing- a system of free banking in Pennsylvania, and securing the public against loss from insolvent banks, radical changes Were made in the banking laws of this State. Instead of corporations crea ted by special laws, voluntary associations are authorized to transact the business of banking, without further legislation, and as • CO nil indispensable prerequisite to the issuing of bank notes for 'circulation as inaneysam- Ple security must be deposited with the Auditor General for their prompt redemp tion. The law makes provision, not only forth° incorporation of new banking asso ciations, but enables banking institutions already in existence, tp continue their busi ness for twenty years after the expiration of their present charters, upon complying with its provisions, by withdrawing their old circulation, and giving the securities required for the redemption of their .new issues. The public, lam sure, rejoice that no further necessity exists for legisla tiVe action, either on the subject of crea ting new, or re-chartering old banks ; and that the time and attention of their Repre sentatives will now, happily, be no longer monopolized in the consideration of a sub ject hitherto productive of so much strife and contention, if not of positive evil. The rapid increase of private banks, throu4oe!- the State, makes it eminently right that they shou4l he placed under proper legislative restrictions, and that the large amount of capital, thus employed, should be made to contribute its fair pro portion to the revenues of the Common wealth. Their business, in the aggregate is now believed to amount to a sum to a sum almost, if not quite, equal to the whole business, of the regularly chartered banks; and yet it is entirely unrestricted, and, with the exception of a merely nominal liecse, tax is free from taxation. This is unjust to every other class of our tax paying citi zens, and especially so to the banking in stitutions holding charters from the Com monwealth, for which tY ey have each paid a liberal bonus, and are, in addition, sub ject to a very large tax on their dividends. I respectfully commend this subject to the attention of the Legislature. A high sense.of duty impels me again to call the attention of the Legislature to the inadequacy of existing laws, regulating the receiving, keeping and disbursement of the revenues of the State. The public moneys are now paid directly to the 'State Treas urer, who deposits.thein at. his own discre tion, whenever and wherever he chosen, and pays thepi out. in sums, : either small or great, npon.his -own. unattested ,;peek ex clusively. The amount thus received, kept and disbursed is annually betwcee three and four millions of dollars, with balances on hand, at times, exceeding one million of dollars; while the bond of the State Treas urer is for only eighty thousand dollars. His accounts are settled monthly by the Auditor General, by whom the receipts for moncypaid into the Treasury are counter signed, and these are the only safegnards provided by law to prevent the illegstl and improper use of the money of the Slate, by the State Treasurer. Happily the revenues .of the Cononmil wealth have hitherto been safely kept, prop erly disbursed, and promptly accounted for, by those in charge of the Public Trea.s ury ; but in view of the serious defalcatioas which have occured elsewhere, and in other States, this fact should furnish no reason why we ought not to guard against loss in the future. Referring to my former annual messages, I respectfully, but most earnestly, recommend that provision be made by law, First—That no money shall be deposited by the State Treasurer in any bank, or elsewhere, without first requiring ample se security to be given to the Co'l monwealth for the prompt repaympt of such sum as as Indy be deposited ; slid that such securi ties shall be deposited in the office of the Auditor General. Second—That all checks issued by 'the State Treasurer, shall be countersigned by the AuditorNeneral, before they are used, and that daily accounts shall be kept of .the moneys received, deposited and disbur sed, in the Auditor General's office, as well as in the Treasury Department.. Third—That condensed monthly state ments, verified by the signatures of the Auditor General and State Treasurer, shall be published in one newspaper in Philadel phia and one in Harrisburg, showing the balances in the Treasury, and where depos itedovith the particular amount of eazli deposit ;rind Fourth---Tliat.the bond of the State: Treasurer be increased to the sum of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Our various charitable and aeformatory institutions—the State Lunatic Hospital, at Harrisburg—the 'Western Pennsylvania Hospital for the insane, at Pittsburg - the asylum for the blind, and deaf and dumb, at .Phila.—the Houses of Refuge at Phila. and Pittsburg, had the Pennsylvania Traiu ing School for idiotic and feeble minded children, at Media, will present their usual annual claims upon the bounty of the State. These excellent charities are con tinually dispersing benefits and blessings upon suffering and erring humanity, which can scarcely be overated. They are heart ily commended to the discriminating liber ality of the Legislature. I refrain as I have heretofore done, from recomwendinc•, as proper objects for appropriations front the State Treasury, other charitable and benevolent institutions, not because they are undeserving the confidence and patron age of the public, but because they are lo cal in their character, and in my judg- • meta have no claims tipon the common fund which can be admitted, in justice to the rights and interests of other portions of the Commonwea:th. • The inspectors of the State Penitentiary for the Eastern District of. Pennslyvania, in their annual reports for the years 1858 and 1859, called the attention of the Legis lature to the insecurity of such parts of the penitdetiaxy building as were exposed to their own fires and those of the neighbor hood,and recommended that roofs of such of the corridors us were covered with shingles and needed renewal, should Fe.placed with slate or metal, On visiting the insti tution, my attention was called to the subject by the inspectors. The neces sity for the change was so apparent and urgent, that I advised them not to hesitate in having the old dilapidated and dangerous wooden roofs of such portions of the building as required renewal,replaced with some substantial fire proof material. This has accordingly been done and I re spectfully recommend that the several ap propriations be granted to defray the ex pense incurred. • I commend to your consideration the report of the State Librarian, whose attention to the inter ests of tho Library under his care, deserves the warmest commendation. The ayatem of exchan ges, with the different Stales of the Union, and with foreign governments, commenced and pros ecuted under his auspices, has and in great a dvantages to the Library, and deeervea the con- tinned (countenance of the Legislature. The iu crease of the Library, et a, comparatively sum]; expense to the Stale, his been' such, that if now needs enlarged aceopmadations fur the safe- keep log of the volumes, and, if the increase =Ain. hes, will soon require n'separate building. for its exclusive use. The reports of the State Treasurer, the Audi tor ileneral, the Surveyor 0-eneral, the Adjutant tleneral, and the Attunioy General, will inform you, in detail, of the Operations of the govern ment-, as presented by tliose several departments, fur the last fiscal year. They are entitled to the attentive consideration of the Legislature. Soon after my inauguration,, upon the recom mendation of my predecessor in office. a dwelling house was purchased in this oily for theresidence of t h e • tiovernor of the Commonwealth. The purchase included several articles of heavy fur niture, then in the building, and a small appro priation would complete.the necessary furnishing of the house, so as to make it a fit and' conveni ent residence for the internin g Executive. I cheerfully recommend the immediate passage of a bill making a suitable appropriation for this purpose. The extraordinary and alarming condition of our national affairs demands your immediate at , tention. On the twentieth of December last, the convention of South Carolien, organized under the authority of the Legislature of that State, by ' a unanimous vote, declared "that the Union now subsisting between South Carolina and the'other States, ander the netneAf•the United States of America, is hereby - diktidVed;" and the action already taken in several other southern ; States. indicates, most clearly, their intention to follow this example. On hehalf of the advocates of secession; it is claimed, that this Union is merely a eompaet be ; tweee the several States composing it, and that any one of the States, which may feel aggrieved, ! may, at its pleasure, declare that it will no lon ; ger be a party to the compact. This doctrine is clearly erroneous. The constitution of the United States is something more than a mere compact, for agreement, between time several States. As ; at‘plied to nations, a compact is bet a. treaty, , which may Le abrogated at the will of either , party; responsible to the other party for its bad faith in refusing to keep its engagements, but entirety irresponsible to any superior tribunal.— A government, on the other hand, whether crea ted by tonsent, or by conquest, when clothed with legislative, judicial cud executive powers, is necessarily in its nature sovereign; and from this sovereignty Sews its right to en forcikits laws and decrees by civil process, and, in an emergen ey, by its military and naval power. The ger ; eminent owes protection to the people, and they, ;in turn, owe it their allegiance. Its laws cannot ; he violated by its citizens, without accountabili ty to the tribunals created to enforce its decrees ' and to punish offenders. Organized resistance to it, is rebellion. If successful, it may he purg :ed of c r ime by revolution. If unsuccessful, the persona engaged in the rebellion, may be execu ted as traitors. Tee government of the United • States, within tine limits assigned to it, is as po- ' tentiel in sovereignty; as any other government the civilized world. The Constitution, and • ' laws made in pursuance thereof, are expressly tie el.a•ed to be the supreme law of the land. Under the Constitution, the general government has the ; power to raise and support armies, to create and ; maintain a navy, and to peovide or calling feral the militia to execute its laws, suppress insurrec tion and repel invasion. Appropriate statutes have been ermetedby.Congress, to aid in the ex- , ecution of these Important prernrecntal powers. The creation if the-Federal GMiernment, with the powers chilli:crated in the Constitution, was the set of the pauple of the United States, end it is perfectly immaterial that the people of the ; era! States acted separately within the territorial limits of each State. The form of•tbeir action • is of no consequence, in view of time fact Cant they created a Federal Government, to which . they surrendered certain powers of sovereignty, and declared those powers, thus surren d ered, to be supreme, without reserving to the Suites, or ; to the people, the right of secession, nullification :or tAlt‘r resistance, It is, therefere, titter that I ttarm is no constitutional right of secession.--- Secession is only another form of nullification. I Either, when attempted to be carried out by force, • is rebellion, and should be treated as such, by those whose sworn duty it is to maintain the em premaey of the Constitution and laws of the ted States. It is certainly true, that in eases of great ex tremity, when the oppression of government has Inenine so intolerable, that civil war is preferable to longer subutis,sion,•there remains the revolu tionary right of resistance; but, where the au• thority of the governmelit is limited by a written Constitution, and each department is held in check by the other departments, it will rarely, if ever, happen that the citizen may not hamlet-plate ly protected, without resorting to the sacred and inalienable right to resist and destroy a govern ment which has been perverted to a tyranny. But, while denying the right of a State to ab solve it:; citizens from the allegiance which they owe to the Federal. Government, it is neverthe less highly proper that we should carefully and candidly examine the reasons which are advanc ed by . those who have evinced a determination to destroy 4hecUmion of these American States, and if it shall appear that any of the causes of com plaint are well foteded, they shoilllti be unhesita tingly removed, and asfar tie possible, reparation made for the past, and security given for the fa teo; for it is not to be tolerated, that. ,a govern ment created by the people, and ma!dliined for their benefit, should do injustice to any. portion of its citizens. After assorting her right to withdraw from the Union; South Carolina, through her convention, among other reasons, declares that she is justified in exercising, at this thud, that right, because several of the States have for years not only re fused to fulfil their constitutional obligations,but have ettaemal laws either nullifying the Constitu tion, .or rendering useless the nets of Congress rebuilt-a. todhe surrender of, fugitive slaves—that they havelmrutittedt thii establishment of societies, to d isturb the peace or other Sta ter; that the people of the non-slavehulding States have aided in the escape of slaves from their masters, and have incited to servile insurrection those that remaiu—and have anziouured their determina tion to exclude the South from the common ter ritory of the Union. As the Representatives of the people of Pennsylvania, it becomes ycur sol emn duty to examine these serious charges, tnade by the authority of a sovereign State. Pennsylvania is included in 4he list of States that are charged with having refused compliance with that mandato of the Constitution of the United States, which declares "that no person held to service or labor in one State, under the laws thereof, escaping into another, Shall, in con setinence of any law or regulation therein, be dis charged from such service or labor, but shall he delivered up, on claim of the party to whom such service or labor may be due." So far front ad mitting the truth of this charge, I unhesitating ly aver , thaE, upon a careful examination, it will be round that the legislative and judicial action of Pennsylvania, whether as a colony, as a mom her of the old confederation, or under the exist jug Constitution of the United States, has been almost invariably influenced by a proper appre ciation of her taw obligations, and by a high re gard for the rights, the feelings and the interests of her sister Status. An early as 1705, the provincial ant horities of Penn after reciting in the preamble, that • 'the im purtniG a of Indian Ansel from Carolina, or other pla ces, bath been observed to giro the I adieus of tide pro vioce some umbrage for susaicion nod dissatistitction," pirtsr-d enact against ills importation of Indian stares from tiny other province or colony to America. but at the souls time thciared, 'that no such I :Witte slave, as deserting its mast, r's derides elsewhere shall tly into this province, shall be understosd or construed to be Cooprettended Man this act." Ant when in MO, more than eight years before. the Coostitiitten a,r the United States sent iota operation, Pennsylvania passed her-law for the grml eat abolition of slavery. mindful of the rights of tee cooled, tutet., she dedar. d that • this act or anything in it Contained, shall not give any relief or shelter Whey ah-coutiogor runasay negro (Imo la-to slave or orrvaut, who has absented himself or shall ra•otant himself. from his or liar own master cr mistress. residing in any other State or conatry, but ifzcli owner. master or mistresa. shall have like right nail alit to claim an I tike away his shirt, or servantois he might litre had in else this act loot not A prevision much more uomuivessul is its phraseo• logy, rind diteet in its commands. than those found, on tiresnnie Saijetn, in tho Constitution of the Union. The act, by Its wins, was made inapplicable to climatic attires attendinanpott (ides des in Couwesa from the other American tt bites. antithose held by persons while passing through this State, or rojourning therein for a period not longer than six mouth, force, violence or fraud, to take out In 1788 it was made a high penal ofronce,for negro or mulatto, with the t o l i n3; h p i e s r s s o t i a : ie b , y nny in tention of keeping or selling the said negro or mulatto as 21 slave, for a term of years. Soon af ter the passage of this act, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania decided that it did not apply to the forcible removal of a slave, by the owner or his agent, but that its object was to punish the foreible or fraudulent abduction, from the State of free nekreee, with the intention of keeping or = selling them as slaves. Thus, at that early day, giving judicial sanction 'to the doctrine, that a master had the right to take his slaves wherever he-could find them. The first net of Congress providing for the yen dition froM justice or labor, was passed in 1793, and originated from the refusal of the Governer of Virginia to surrender and de liver up, on. the' muisition of : the Gevernot of Pennsylvania, !lime. persons who had boon indict ed in Pennsylvania for -kidnapping IA negrd, and carrying him into Virginia. And when. it was found that this Congressional statue did not af ford a simple, speedy and efficient remedy for the recovery from fugitives ler labor, the Legislature of Pennsylvania, arlbeTegnest of the adjoining State of Maryland:lB27, passed her act' to give effect to the ,provisions of the Constitution of the United States relative to the fugitives front labor, for the protection of free people of color, and to prevent kidnapping." This excellent and well considered hiw met all .the existing :emergnneins. It required tho judge?, justices of the, peace...and aldermen, of the State, upon the i,ath of the claimant, to issue their wyrrnuts fur life urres . tor any fugitive from labor hsaaping into -this State; directing, howeVer, that such warrants should be returnahre, by wheresoever issued, before a l judgo of the p:mper comrty. Tlt required sberills, end eetstables to execute such warrants. It author ized the comtnitumnt of the fogitive to the coun ty jai), and utberwise made provisions to secure its effective execution, and at the same time to prevent its abuse. This law continued quietly in operation until the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, made in 1842, in the ease of Prigg vs. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The his tory of this ease may be briefly stated: Edward Prigg was indicted in the court of oyer and ter miner of York eounty, for kidnapping a colored person, named Margaret Morgan. Upon the tri al it appeared that she was held as a slave in the State of Maryland, and that she escaped into the State of Pennsylvania in the year 1832—that in 1837, Edw rod - Prigg was appointed, by the own er of the slave, to seize and arrest her as u fugi tire from labor. 1n pursuance of this authority, and under a warrant issued by a justice of the peace, Prigg caused the negro woman to be or rested,.and without haring obtained any warrant of removal, he delivered her to her owner in the State of Maryland. These facts were found by a special verdict, and by the agreement of coun sel, a judgement was entered against Prigg.— From this judgment a writ of error was taken to the Supreme Ceurt of the State, where a pro for majudgment of affirmance was ❑,gain, by agree ment, entered, and the ease removed to the Su preme Court of the United Slates. It will he observed that the qoestion, whether Edward Prigg was really guilty of the crime of kidnapping, - under the Pennsylvania atatue of 182(1, 1 , 4'0 serer actually passed upon, either by the court or jury, in the county of York, or by the Supremo Court of the St:rte. Thojury mere ly found e tbe facto, and the action of both courts woo but a matter of form. In the argument and determination the case, in the Supreme Court of the United States, it appears to have been taken for granted, that :stir act of 1526 made it a criminal offence for a mas ter to take his slave out of this State, without a warrant of removal; sad, upon this construction, the net was declared unconstitutional and void. This I submit, was a clear misapprehension of the purport and mooning of our legislation. Thu first section of the act of lil2S, under- which the indictment against Prig; was formed,' wits almost literally copied from the seventh sestina of the act of 1785, to which a construction had already been given by tho highest judicial tribunal of the State of• Pennsylvania, where it was held to have no application whatever to the removal of a slave by the master or his agent, with or without a warrant. Such wan the undoubted law of the State under the statue of 1788, anti in re enacting that statue, its the oat of 182 ft, with an increased penalty, it is Maid fest that the intention and oh- jet: t of the Legislature was to protectfrce persona of color, and the punish those who; by fraud, force nr vitslence, acre guilty of kidnapping, and holding , or selling free men as stares. This the State hod a clear right to do; and nothing but a misconstruction i 4 her act, could have induced the declaration that it wan forbidden by the Con stitution of the United States. It is perfectly clear, that Prigg had eummitted no crime in re moving Margaret Morgan from the State of Penn• vylvania,to the State of MaryhtmLand delivering her up to her owner; and is equally clear, that no attempt was matte, by the statue of Pennsylvania, to decisive his act a crime. Ile should have been discharged, not because the act of the State was unconstitutional, het because he had not trans grossed its commands, The Supreme Court of the United States not only pronounced the particular section of the net of 1520, then before them, unconstitutional, but* o majority of court held ust the whole act was void, because the power to provide for the rendi tion of fugitives from labor, was vested exclu sively in Congress, and the several States were, therefore, ineumpettent to pass statues either in aid of, or to hinder, delay or prevent, the deliv ery of such fugitives. That this was (lie extent of the decision, as delivered by Judge Story, not only appears from the opinions of the majority, hat also from the dissenting opinions delivered by the minority of the court. By this unfortu nate deeision,it unauthoritatively proclaimed that Pennsylvania, in enacting her liberal status of 182 G, making it the duty of her own officers to aid itt arresting atsd delivering up fugitives from labor} hetl-tnistt!ken her constitutional' obliga tion, and that her act was in violation el, rattier than obedience to, the Constitution of the United States. Under such circumstances, it was the manifest duty of the State to repeal her law thus declareduncenstitutional. This was done by the act of 1847; and if that, act bad contained nothing more than a repeal of the IV; of 1826, and the re-enactment of the law against kidnapping, it could not have been subject to any just complaint. But tho l bird section of the act of 1847, prohibits, under heavy penalties, our judges and magistrates front acting tinder itoy act of Congress, or otherwise taking jurisdic tion of the came of a fugitive from labor; and the fourth section punishes with tine, and imprisonment, the tumul tuous and riotous arrest of a fugitive Aare, by any per soif orttriiolid, under any pretence ef authority what mcr, sa as to create a breach of the public peace. The sixth section, denying the too of the county jails for the detention of fugitivo slaves, was repealed in 1052,and need only he referred to as showing the general spirit of the act, The seventh section repealed the provisions of tho act of 1780, which authorized paeans passing through our State to take their slaves with them, and gave to en journers the right to bring their slaves into the State, and retain them hero for any period net exceeding six , months. The provisions of the third and fourth sections of the act of 1817, seem to been predicated upon the lan guage of the Supremo Court in Prtgg's case. It is there admitted that the Bev rat Mates may prohibit their own i magistrates, and other officers front exercising an an thority conferred by an act of Congress; and that while an owner of a slave, under and in wit-Woof the Constitat. tion of the United States. is clothed with power, in every State of the Union, to seize and recapture his FLINT, he must, nevertheless, do so without using tiny illegal vio lence, or committing a breach of the peace. It is evident that the framer of the act of 1847, had closely studied , the case of Prigg vs. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, end had kept his law strictly within its letter. In many respects, the act is a codification of the principles emu- elated by the court; and more fault may Justly be found with its temper thou its want of constitutionality. If fugitive slaves were still claimed under the ; act of Congress of 1703, the denial to the In•Lti. ter of the aid of State judges and magistrates, might be }i source of great inconvenience to him; but the complete and perfect remedy now provid ed by the act of Congress of 1850, renders bite entirely independent of State officers. And the ! punishment of arrests without warrant, by a master in the exercise of his constitutional right of reception, but made in a violent, tumultuous and unreasonable manner, amounting to :t trench of the peace, is but recognizing, by statute, what was before the common law. Them sections were re-enacted in the rinsed penal code of Penot-yi vania, at the last sessions of the Legislature, and UM still the law of the State; but they are not now of any practical importance, and as their reten tion on our statute. book is calculated to create the impression that the people of this State are unfavorable to the execution of tho fugitive slave law, and the discharge of their confederate du ties, and with the view of removing this subject of reproach, I earnestly recommend their uncon• ; ditiona I repeal. While a majority of the judges of the Supreme Court of the United States, in the Prigg ease, held, that a State had no constitutional right to provide by legislation for delivering up fugitives t from labor, a minority were then of the opinion that State laws consistent with; and in aid of, the constitutionalt-ininetion, were valid and pro. per. And this minority opinion id now the judg. 1 meat of the present court, as recently indicated in a case which arose in the State of Ilt,nnise. —y There is, therefore. nothing. to prevent the revi; viii of the act of 1826, and its restoration to the place in our rode to which by its merits, it is so justly entitled. This would leave to the option of the claimant, whether ho would seek .hid rem edy under State or National laws. Htehail,this right before the repeal of our act of 1132 : 11,Itud; in my opinion, no good reason can be assigned for refusing to place,hitn again In the safnalionition. I would also recommend that the consent of WHOLE NO. 603. the State be given, thatlite master, while stifoorn ing in our State, for a limited period, lir passing through it may be aenninpiinied by his slave, without losing his right; to his service. such legislation is due to the comity which should ever exist between the different States of this Union, it would unclouhtetily tend greatly to re store that,pence,and lutrinutty, which aro now so unwisely imperiled.

Forty years ago our fathers settled an angry controver sy growing out of a similar question. by dividing the territories purchased from France, and providing that slavery, or involuntary servitude. should not exist north of a certain line; and the iwholecountry acquiesc ed in- that compromise.

Now the sectional issue is again presented, by the dom inant party in the north, claiming that slavery cannot legally go into the Territories. even If sanctioned by • Congress. or by the Territorial Legislature, and that it is the right and the duty of Congress to prohibit its f`s istance.

I would, therefore, rerommenil the General Assembly to Instrnet and request our Senators and Represeutatiees In Cons gross, to support a proposition for each an amendment of the Constitution, to ho submitted for ratification or rejection, to a convention of delegates, elected directly by the people of the State. . . . In the event of the failure of Congress speedily to propose this, ore similar arneutimerit, to the (Muslim iio», the, citizens of Pennsylvania should have an op portunity, by the application of some peaceable rem°. dy to prevent the dismemberment of the Union. This can only be done by caning, a convention of delegates, to be elected by the people, with a view solely to the consideration of what measures should be taken to meet the present fearful exigencies. If Congress should propose no remedy, let it emanate from the source of all authority. the people themselves. Every attempt, upon the part of individuals, or of or ganized societies. to lead the people away hem their al legiance to the government, to induce them to violate any of the provisions of the einstitution. or to incite insurrections in any of the Slates of this Union. ought to be prohibited by law, as crimes of a tleasonahle na ture.
