THE GA '/ ETTE. Veto Message. On Thursday, Bth instant, tlov. JOHNSTON sent into the Senate of Pennsylvania his objec tions to the passage of the bill of last session, for granting the use of our jails to the safe keeping of fugitive slaves. It is as follows: To THE SENATE OE PENNSYLVANIA : SENATORS: — An act entitled " An act to re peal the Sixth Section of an act. entitled an net to prevent kidnapping and preserve the public peace, prohibit the exercise of certain powers heretofore exercised by Judges, Jus tices of the Peace, and Jailors of this Common wealth, and to repeal certain Slave Laws," has been held under advisement since tiie adjourn ment of the last Legislature. fn obedience to tlis provisions of the Consti tution, 1 return this bill to the Senate, where il originated, without my approval, rnd with my reasons tor withholding it. To those rea sons founded on the clearest sense ot duty and official responsibility, 1 invite your candid at tention. They are now tor the tirst time giv en, because now, for the first time since the passage of this act, has an opportunity oitered to confer with those to whom my reasons may be important, and with whom they may be op erative The section proposed to be repealed is in tiiese words: "It shall not be lawful TO use any jail or prison of this Commonwealth fir the detention of any person claimed as a I'ugitive from servitude or labor, except incases ' where jurisdiction may lawfully be taken by any judge, under the provisions of this act; : and any jailor or keeper of any prison, or other person who shall offend against the provisions j of this section, shall, on conviction thereof, pay a line of five hundred dollars, one-half thereof for the use of this Commonwealth, and the j tit tier half to the person who prosecutes; and K hall, moreover, thenceforth, he removed from ftti, e, and be incapable of holding such office ul jailor or keepet of a prison at any time dur ing ins natural life." It is a part of a law j, issed in the vear 1817, under the Executive Administration of my predecessor, and bv votes unanimous, or nearly so, of both branches of the Legislature. The bill under consideration is confined to the repeal of the section prohib itum' the use of our prisons as places of dcten tuuf for fugitives from labor. It the legislation proposed authorizes the use ot the prisons it is in repugnance to the Constitution of the United States, as expounded by the Supreme Court. By a decision made in derogation of the local statutes of Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court oi the United States held in so many words that all State legislation on the subject fit' the reclamation of fugitives from labor, whether to obstruct or to aid it, to hinder or promote it, is absolutely and entirely prohib ited. The legislation of Congress supersedes all Slate legislation on the suhj >ct, and by ne cessary implication prohibits it. The Sutes cannot enact auxiliary provis ions on the subject. This is the very language It', therefore, an Act of Assembly were passed, authorizing the seven! County Commissioners to erect safe houses of detention tor persons claimed as fugitives from labor, under sich regulations as the Legislature or its agents might prescribe, lor the reception and safe keepmg of the inmates, such a law would be unconstitutional, aud consequently void, and anv single discontented citizen ot a county might iuive it so declared. 1 am unable to sol" any difference in th.s respect between the special construction of such piaees of deten tion, regu'ated and controlled by State authori ty, and "state agents, and the permission to use those already ejected and regulated by general laws. It is the State law interfering in the question ot the alleged fugitive and his claims, ami such law 3 as the Supreme Court ef the United States have pronounced unconstitution al. It is not the legislation of Pennsylvania that has closed our jails against the reception of such fugitives, but a formal decision oi the Supreme court, declaring our former statute 011 this subject unconstitutional ; a decision which, until reversed, is binding on every de partment of this government. Nor were the certain consequences of this doctrine, thus solemnly adjudicated, unforeseen. The present Chief Justiceof the United Stales, an eminent jurist, and a citizen of the State ot Maryland, in dissenting from theopinionof the t'ourt, expressed his belief that these very ef fects would be produced, aud foretold tiie time when, State agency being repudiated, and State prisons closed by this very decision, '• the territory of the neighboring .States would become open pathways for fugitives from la bar." These are Ins words, and they conclu sively show in what light fie understood tiie judgment thus pronounced. lam aware it has been alleged that the point herein mentioned, a- decided did not arise in the case.' It is an swe red that the Judges ot the Court, in their s -vera! decisions, declared otherwise. The Chief Justice, who was present and took part in the hearing, and whose dissenting ouiiuon furnishes his views of what was decid ed says : " But as I understand the opinion of the Fourt, it goes further, and decides that the power to provide u remedy for this right is ex <• usively vested in Congress, and that all laws upon the subject by a State, since the adoption or the Constitution, ate null and void.' Judge Wayne savs : "In that opinion it is decided: 3. That the legislation by Congress upon the provision, as the supreme law of the laud, excludes all State legislation upon the same subject; and that no State can pass any )iw or regulation or interpose such as may Live been Taw or regulation, when the Consti tution of the United States was ratified, to su peradd, to control, qualify, or impede a remedy unacted by Congress for the delivery of fugi -1 ve slaves, then adds, after a learned argu ment sustaining this view: "1 consider the point I have been maintaining more important than any other in the opinion of the Court ;" a logins, as confirmation, that this wus a point 0 cidedT 1 hat only three of the nine Judges Composing the Court dissented. Justice McLean makes the inquiry, "does the previa on in regard to the reclamation ot j untiv<' slaves vest the power exclusively in r./pfiress 7 ' and answers. " The natureof the power shows that it must be exclusive. "ft 1 contended that the power to execute it. rests vviih the States. The law was designed to protect the rights ot the slave holder against the States opposed to those rights, and yet bv tois argument, the effective power is in the 1. mis id' those on whom it is to operate. ' "It i essentia! therefore, to the uniform efficacy o! linn Constitutional provision, thai it should be c onsidered exclusively a federal power. This judgment, of the .Supreme CoUrt ot the United Htate. determines the law for my gum ance, and fir yours, whatever may be our 111111- viduaf convictions upon the subject. If, then, a prison cannot be lit 1 iff, under htate laws, for the defpnfion of fugitives —if a prison already hui't and subject to Hiatc regulations and rub*,, re necting inmates, cannot be used snd if, in shortfall State legi 'ation, ot what -1 ve 1 kind, h prohibited by a solemn decree of ihe .Supreme Court 1-: it not more than idle ! pao, a-, act ret' .rai.-.cot laws thus expressly declared and Known in advance to be unconsti tutional '■ Ibe writ of habeas corpus would ■ run into these unconstitutional places of deten tion ; the federal Judiciary would themselves Slave to decide the question. The iState Judg es, in counties, where there is no United States Judge, and where the fugitive is committed by a mere Commissioner, would be required to is sue the writ of right; and that which the friends of this repeal have claimed as a great boon to the claimants, would he worse than a | mockery. The claim he now has on the Mar ] shal, and his sureties, for indemnification for the i escape of his servant, would he converted into a barren claim against a county jailor, whose i first duty would be to discharge a prisoner thus j held if he claimed his iiberty. Not so was the law formerly, and before it was decided that all State legislation 011 thesubject is prohibited | not so will it be hereafter, it the principle of the decision of the Supreme Court he practi i cally carried out, and this whole vexed and vexatious subject bo left to the administration ; of the United iStatcs officers. The Act of Congress of the 18th Septem ber. 1-.10, commonly kuown as the Fugitive Slave Bill, would seem to favor the same views entertained by Judge Story, and pronounced in the decision to winch reference has been made. Its whole tenor shows this, and more than one of its detailed provisions confirm it. The ens tody of the fugitive, by Estate authority, is almost forbidden. '1 he Marshal and his sureties are made subject to a pecuniary liability, for an escape, winch, as the Supreme Court ot the United States have decided, in a precisely analagous ' case, is defeated the instant the prisoner is transferred to a local jail. In counties where there is no Marshal, the agent ot the Commissioner is charged with the exclusive custody of ihe fugitive and is allowed by the bill section his expenses for keeping him in custody and providing him j with food and lodging during his detention. Surely no one can pretend to say that this is not a full and exclusive exercise of federal power on the subject. If so. the principle of constitutional low, to which 1 have referred, is interposed, and the legislation of a State to transfer this custody to a local prison is pro hibited. Is it not tiien most conducive to peace and good order, and the harmonious ad ministration of the law, that tiiis whole subject be left where the Constitution places it, in the hands of the United States authorities ! 1 have thus frankly stated to the Senate my reasons for withholding my approval of this bill. J have limited them strictly, guarding ; against any expression liable to misconstruction, to considerations of constitutional law. J ask for them a candid and careful consideration. WW. F. JOHNSTON. EXECUTIVE CIIAMBE, ( Ilarrisburg, January bib, l-AT PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 10.—The nine o'clock train from New York, this morning, owing to a switch being turned wrong at Bristol, ran ituo a small brick car house,dragging an empty car through the gable end and through the din ing room ot W'm. Stewart, in the adjoining building. .Mr. Stewart, bis wife, three small children and a girl were silting around the din ner table and were all buried 111 tiie ruins ; but with tiie exception of one child, whose head was severely cut, they only sustained slight bruises. The engineer escaped by leaping off, and was slightly injured. James Uingely and James Jaxor had each one foot crushed, and amputation was found necessary. The locomo tive was a perfect wreck. No passengers were hurt. TCSCARORA ACADEMY BURNED —The Tus enrora Academy building, formerly the Presby terian Church, was entirely consumed by fire 011 tiie Might of the 14th inst. We iearii fhat the fire originated in the north end of the build ing, and evidently was the work of an incendi ary. A number of students lodged in the building, but they all made their escape with out injury. Many of them, however, losi clothing, books, &e., and several lost gold watches. The building is insured in the Perry County Fire Insurance Company, but for what amount we are not informed. The school is suspended fur the present, but we learn that prompt measures will be taken to re-build and open the school again.— Juniata Sentinel. HOKRIJILE DEATH ox THE ICE. —We are pained to record a heart-rending occur rence 011 Sunday last, in Bern township, some seven miles above Reading, bv which a young lady, named Miss M 11.1.1. n, aged about twenty years, met with an untimely death. Wishing to visit a neighbor on the opposite side of the Schuylkill, at Koenig's ferry, .Miss Miller walked on the ice until she had reached the middle of the river, when the ice broke, immersing her in wa ter up to the arms, and seizing hold of the edge of the ice, kept from sinking alto gether. ller cries brought the neighbors to tiie shore, and a boat was obtained for her relief, but alas, none had the cour age to enter it for her rescue. Those on shore looked 011 for more than an hour, when the poor girl, becoming exhausted and frozen, slipped oil and disappeared under the ice. liven after she had given up her hold on the ice, she swam on the surface for some time, and vet no effort was made to save her life. In a Jew hours the body was recovered, and an inquest held by Alderman MILLER, of this city.— /leading /'rex.y. FIVE IIJ NDREI) PERSONS DESTROYED BY A \\ v i I:K fSi'on . —(>11 Saturday intelli gence was received at Lloyd's, (London,: under date .Malta, Monday, the Hth ultimo, ot the most awful occurrence at the Island of Sicily, which had been swept bv two enormous water-spouts, accompanied bv a terrific hurricane. Those who witnessed the phenomena describe the water-spouts as two immense spherical bodies of water reaching from the clouds, their cones near ly touching the earth, and as far as could he judged, at a quarter of a mile apart, travelling with immense velocity. They passed over the island near Marsala. In their progress houses were unroofed, trees uprooted, men and women, horses, cattle anil sheep raised up, drawn into their vor tex. and borne 011 to destruction ; during their passage rain descended in cataracts, i accompanied with hail-.-tones of enormous size and masses of ice. doing over Cas teilamarre, near Stabh, it destroyed hall the town, and washed two hundred of the inhabitants into the sea, who all perished. Upwards of live hundred persons have been destroyed by this terrible visitation, and an immense amount of property, the country being laid waste lor miles. Ihe .shipping in t lie harbor suffered severely, many vessels being destroyed, and their crews drowned. Alter the occurrence numbers ot dead human bodies were pick ed up, all frightfully mutilated and swollen. The following poetic gem from the pen of a talented son of Lewistown. whom fell disease consigned to an early grave, is copied from Graham's Magazine for No vember. A Dream of Columbus. BY THE I.ATE At.LAX CUNNINGHAM MiI.LIKEN. The silver crescent had been torn From the gray Alhambra's wall; The Moor had wept o'er Grenada, And left his father's hall; And the court of royal Ferdinand, And the Lady Isabeile, To the sound of merry music. And with laughter and with song, In ihe Moor's deserted palace Did its revelry prolong. Sad was the noble Moslem's hearth, For he had struggled well— And filled w illi gladness were thev all. In the couit of Isabeile. Nay, not all; there was one lone man Who neither wept nor smiled, As he sat by his only friend on earth, And he w as a sleeping child. Why keeps he his sad vigil, Musing silently and long?. He whose heart is hold in battle .should share the victor's song. Dot on his ear unheeded fall The strains of joy and praise, As bending o'er las sleeping hoy He thought of other days. He thought of lovely Genoa, Fair city of the sea— For his youth was nurtured 'near the sky Of cloudless Italy— To her, when on his spirit broke Dreams of the ocean i * It- - W here spring-time ever singeth, And v, here summer ever smiles — lie few to tell her, as a child Flics to its saintly mother, And trembled lest hi - heart might breathe Its secret to another. But she had long forgotten him, And spurned the gifts he bore ; And full of bitter sorrowing He left bis native shore ; And though he thought of lovely Venice, The Adriatic's bride, Throned on her sunny islands Amid his golden tide. He offered her a coronet. Inwrought with many a gem, Meet for her pale and queen-like brow \\ as such a diadem. But she dashed it from her jewelled hand. As the reckless debauchee Flings down the empty goblet In the midst of revelry. Oh ! like a bark tossed by the wave, And broken by the gale, \\ as the lile of that bold dreamer— \ et bis heart did net er fail. A spirit was indwelling, That lit his darker hour With golden visions, and his soul Did yield unto its power. And bis labors now were ended, For the royal Ferdinand Had pledged ins princely honor, And -uutrt it on his hand. That when from the Aliiambra Hi llag should kiss the breeze, lie should go forth for the sunny isles. Afar in the unknown seas. The noise of the joyous wassail Grew louder, and the light Of blazing torches fell upon The stairy brow of night: And through the latticed casement, A beam of light was stealing From oli a silver fountain Olive branches were concealing : And it fell upon a brow Pale and silent—for he slumbered Amid the revelry that told Grenada's days were numbered : And he dreamed not of the past Or the present hour of joy, But of the future as he slept Beside his blue-eyed boy. DKKAM. lie was far, afar on the silver sea, Am! the pale stars looked down smilingly ; The weary crew to their rest had gone ; By the caravel's helui he stood alone. Adowii in the water he east his eye, W here dimly the coral islands lie ; And like the vault of heaven afar, liiibosomirigeach silver star, Spread that interminable world < >f water pure and undefiled, While ever the playful zephyr flings Sweet perfume from its weary wings ; The solt breath of the odrous flower, That it had caught, as round the bovver It whispered in low minstrelsy, That summer builds iri the i-ies of the sea. Ail was silent ; you might hear The wailing of each musical sphere", As the Santa Maria stole on her way To the golden shore of the blessed Cathay ; The moon-beams fell upon the pure sea hi golden glances beauteously ; They came from the couch of the dying day, To spread for her a golden way. Long had she followed their pathway bright; But it was broken on that night. There dwetieth a dark spot on the sea, Bleeping there mysteriously, As an evil thought will sometimes find A dwelling-place in a noble mind. It draweth more near, and turrets rise, Like jagged clouds in the azure skies; It draweth more near—and with outstretch ed band He gazetb eagerly—it wa land ! There lay an island in its green dress, Basking m Nature's wantonness ; Oriole, lark, and nightingale, Mingle their voices in the vale ; Every whispering air that steals Perfume from the flowers, reveals Where the murmuring fountains flow , In melody most sad and low, ()n his dreaming ear a soft voice came, Breathing of rank and a noble name, Of princely honor and minstrels' praise, Hymning the deeds of his early days. Crafty monarch and warrior grim, What was lie or they to him ? They were glad that the joyous cup Of ruddy wine was lifted up; That the sword atal shield were thrownaside, And the crescent, so long deified, Mud yielded to the cross ; And that beneath the morrow's sun, The banner of proud Arragon Should wave its glorious folds upon The Moslem tower; but ho had won A nobler triumph far than this, Wrought by his heart's own manliness, In dreamy thought yet well defined, A triumph of the uneonquersd mind. Maj. Gen. Scott, we see it stated, honored Kossuth with a call on New Year's Day. While there, Gen. Cass came in, and going up to Gen. Scott, in his usual putty manner, ex claimed, " Well, General, are you prepared to lead a hundred thousand brave Americans to Hungary, to a->-ist our friend, the Governor.' "Sir," replied Gen. Scott, drawing himself up to the height of his stately person, " I am pre pared to lead my country men wherever Con gress directs me to go ? ' The answer was that of a true American, ami worthy " the hero ola hundred battles."
