The If. S. Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, March 26.—The Supreme
'Court of .the United States have decided the
Massachusetts honor cases. They hold that
licenses granted by the United States under
the internal revenue laws, for the wholesale
sale of liquors, held by a citizen of M.aqcsi -
okresetts, do not protect him in the sale, or
keeping for sale, of liquors within said
State in view of the prohibitory law of the
State of Massachusetts. The decision of the
court below is affirmed.
On Wednesday Mr. Richardson, of Bos
'ton, one of the council for the liquor dealers,
.is to make an argument before the Com
mittee of Ways and Means, in favor of
making licenses a protection for the sale of
spirituour liquors, instead of permissive, as
just decided by the Supreme Court of the
United States.

A CLERGYMAN KILLED GOING TO A FU
NERAL-THE CORPSE RETURNS TO LTFE.-
The LaCrosse Republican has a correspond
ent who was recently visiting at West
Bend, Wisconsin, when he learned the fol
lowing facts, which are substantiated by
Hon. F. O. Thorpe, who resides at. West
,Bend.
"On Saturday, the 3d inst., at West Bend,
the Rev. Mr. Miller was was _called to go
into the country, a few miles from town, to
preach the funeral sermon of 3lrs.Lambert,
who was supposed to be dead. She was
arrayed in her funeral attire and placed in
her coffin. It appears that _Mr. Miller was
the owner of a fractious horse, that was
sometimes unmanageable and would ran
away. He was to pass through a tim
bered country, and on account of snow
drifts the road was almost impassable, and
and from this fact the horse succeeded in
throwing the minister from the cutter.
From appearances, Mr. Miller was thrown
with great force upon a large oak
stump that was filled with short knots. One
of these knots came in contact with and sev
ered the jugularvein. When he was found,
life was almost extinct from the loss of
blood. He was taken to the nearest house
and medical aid at once procured, but he
onlylived a short time. The cutter was
found some distance from where the acci
dent occurred, and the horse detached from
it. But the most singular development of
this sad and mysterious affair is yet to be
told: Further information proves that Mrs.
Lambert was not dead, but had been in a
trance for two days, presenting every indi
-cation that life had departed. She is now
improving, and expected soon to tecover.
She states that she could hear every word
spoken, and could realize the preparations
Ifer friends were making forher funeral, but
'could make no resistance , or move a muscle
of her body. Her grave had been dug. She
mow lives, and the minister who bad been
called to preach herfunentl sermonnow lies
buried in the same grave made to receive her
last remains. ' •

THE NEW VOLCAYIE The
Herald publishes an account of the wonder
ful appearance of a volcanic island in the
Greek Archipelago. The story, fully
vouched for as true by the United States
and other officials who were eye witnesses
to the startling .phenomenon, is stranger
than any fiction conceivable, and the phe
nomenon itself is one of the most remark
able ever known. The island has risen
from under the Sea, not suddenly, but
gradually; and the water for miles around
was boiling'and steaming at a tremendous
rate. While this island was thus gradually
growing that of Sontorlin, near by, appears
to have been disappearing. A gentleman
who landed on the new island found it to
be of coal or lava, and still so hot that eggs
which lie discovered thereon were cooked
hard. Among other carious ascompany
ing phenomena is the appearance on the
surface of the ocean, as good as new, of a
vessel which was sunk ten years ago. The
island is several miles in circumference,
and, being of volcanic origin, it is supposed
will disappear as soon as the force of the
irruption is expended.
MASS MEETING AT CILESTER.-A large
and enthusiastic Union mass meeting was
held at Chester, on Saturday, 24th inst., for
the purpose of ratifying the nomination of

The Hon. S.M. Broomall, member of Con
gress froM this district, was present, and de
livered an-eloquent address on the present
condition of political affairs, together with a
full explanation of the veto policy.
Dr. Harvey and Messrs. Lorin and Ward
followed in short addresses. Dr. Coates
then addressed the, meeting, drawing a for
cible parallel between Geary and Clymer.
He spoke to the point, and was listened to
with marked attention, being often inter
rupted by applause. • -
The campaigh ball is fairly openhere, and
all good Union loving men have gone to
work in earnest.

From Washington.
WASHINGTON, March 26.—AnOfficial
proclamation has been made of the ratifica
tion of the treaty between the United States
and the Chiefs and Headmen of the . Winne
congan Band of Dakota or Sioux Indians.
These Indians bound themselves to discon
tinue for the future all attacks upon the
persons or property , of other, tribes
unless first assailed by ' them, and to
use their influence to promote peace
everywhere in the region occupied or fre
quented by them. The band agree to.with
draw from the routes overland already es
tablished or hereafter to be established
throughout their country, and in considera
tion of this the United States agree to pay
them $lO,OOO annually, for ten yearg; in such
articles as the Secretary of the Interior may
direct.
Clement Clay's Treason.
Bovrox, March 26th.—The 'advertiser
publishes a letter in the possession of the
State Department at Washington identified
as being written by Clement Q. Clay,
under date of St. Catharines, C. W., Novem
ber--, 1864. Theletter shows: the complicity
of thel writer in 'the robbing and murdering
raids from Canada into the United States and
is understood to furnish the real grounds
for Clay's prolonged imprisonment at
Fortress Monroe. The letter is addressed
to J. P. Benjamin and urges official
sanction by the rebel government of
Lieutenant Bennett, H. Young and other
desperadoes who made a raid on St. Albans,
in order to prevent their being given up un
der the extradition treaty. Clay justifies
their acts as being legitimate warfare. He
also interests 13i self to protect in
the same way Captain Charles H. Cole,
charged with piracy in attempting to seize
a Federal steamer on Lake Erie. The Jet
ter says "the sympathies of nine-tenths of
the Canadians are with Young and his
men and a majority of all the ne*s
paps.rs justify or excuse his acts; as
merely retaliation, and they desire only the
authority of the Confederate States Govern
ment for it, to resist their extradition. The
letter alludes to their pending Presidential
election as follows: All that large portion
of the Northern people, especially in the
Northwest want, - to resist the despotism at
Washington, is a leader.
They are ripe for resistance, and it may
come after the Presidential election. At all
events it must come if our armies are not
overcome and destroyed or dispersed. No
people of Anglo - Sitxon blood can
long endure the usurpations and
tyrannies of Lincoln. Democrats are more
hated by the modern Republimms than
Southern rebels, and will be as much out
raged and persecuted if Lincoln is re
elected. They must yield to a cruel and
disgraceful despotism or fight. They feel it
and know it.

V. S. Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON. Ifarch t'th.—The Supreme Court of
the United States this morning decided the case of
Michael A. Nolan and others, vs. the Board of As
sessora of the city of Albany, defendants in error, at
the suit of Adam Van Allen, plaintiff in error and
other cases. 'lhe question presented was whether the
shares of the stockholders In the Banking Association
created under the ante of Congress. which provide for
the creation of national Denim, can be subjected to
taxation by the State authorities.
Associate Justice Nelson delivered the opinion of
the Court. holding that the shares held by individuals
were not a part of the capital of the Bank, and must
be regarded as the personal property of the share
holders and as such subject to taxation by the Slate.
within the provisions of the Act of Come= but that
the judgment of the Court below mini be reversed on
the ground that there was a discrimination betWem
theshares of these banks and the capital stock of the
Stale.
Chief Justice Chase raad a minority opinion, not
being able to concur that the State had the power
claimed, which was an indirect mode of taxing the na
tional securities. which was not authorized or intended
to be authorized by Congress.
In the cases of Cutling. Fisk and' others. brokers•
the Court hold that a broker Is chargeable on pur
chases of securities m.,de on his own acctinnt, and for
his own benefit the same as on commission when
purchasing for others.

• The history of theeducational progress, connected
with the Conference,Was then taken up.
At the last session of this Conference, Rev. Mr.
Lewis, by resolution, was requested to prepare a paper
containing a history of the Education and Centenary
Funds, their origin and investments ; as also. an ac
count of the claims for annuity held by Dickinson Col
lege . againat the New Jersey Conference, to-be pre
sented at itsi next session." We propose In the first
place, to furnish a history of the .Educationil Fund,
In its origin and investment, with an account of the
claims fbr an annuity held by. Dickinson College
against the New Jersey Conference.
At the session of the Philadelphia Conference, for
1833, measures were adopted, in unison with the Bal.
timer e Conference. to accept proposals made by trus
tees of Dickinson College, at Carlisle. Pa., which pro-
posals were to trainfer the college buildings, grounds,
and all the appliances of the institution to forty trus
tees of the college, appointed for and In behalf of the
,E. Church. During that yopir this transfer• was
effected, and there was a mutual agreement entered
into that the two conferences should be equal in con
ducting and sustaining the college, as well as in the
advantages and responsibilities involved. This being
dune. an agent was app listed to travel through the
Conference.and collect Minds for the permanent en
dowment of the institution.
At the conference of 1834. the agent reported sub•
scriptions and collections amounting to 5. 3 .970 10 . •of
which $193 63 was cash. Following this a subscription
was openee in the conference room, when the preach
ers swelled the amont to $lB 600. • At this same confer.
erre a Board of seven Trustees was elected to be en
titled "Trustees ofEducatlon Fund of the Philadelphia
Annual Conference or the M. E. Church," to take
charge of all cob ections. sobscrlptions, bonds, arc . re
toting to education. These Trustees were subse
quently incorporated under the laws of the State of
Pennsylvania, and organized accordingly..
At the session of the Philadelphia Conference for
1636, the General Conference was petitioned for a divi
sion of that body, and it was divided according to the
form and manner laid down in the petition, and with
conditions expressed in the follow Mg resolutions:

The usual committees made their reports on various
matters.
A colored preacher was here introduced, who gave
his experience as a slave, and a collection of $75 was
taken np for his benefit. He gave a pitiful account of
the condition of his experiences in slavery; how his
wile and children were sold and semsted tram him;
how' be had purchased his wife's freedom, and
had nearly paid the good old Quaker who
loaned him the money. His childrenhad
been freed by th e Emancipation Proclamation of
Mr. Lincoln, snd ne desired assistance to bring them
