Thomas Robson, testified—l was an officer in
the Seventh division Third Ward at the October
election;!' was.Repnbiican inspector,-and Robert
Thompson . was the Democratic inspector;
Thompson received the tickets from voters and
placed them in tne box; thejudge took posses
sion ot.the list jof taxables; 1 had it in my hand
before.we opened the polls; at five minutes past
seven- ewe- opened the window and the
judge. , tpok the book; when a man
presented himself to vote neither
1 or the other inspector could oxamlne the book
to see If his name was in it; that continued so
daring the day; we conld not tell whether people
were voters oply through the judge announcing
aU right; I told the judge and other officers that t
desired tOLbare , that book and to mark every
name before the.tickets went in the box; there
were severalihaqds.thrust into the window when
the polls.,bp.ened; the tickets were received by
the Democratic Inspector very rapidly and placed
in the box; it was-impossible for the judge to
tick off the name of every voter; I made objection
to the manner in which they were taking votes,
and they,took po notice,of it, and continued that
way durlng'the Whole hour; It was impossible to
see who were voting; ! could not see their faces; '
during, the first hour the highest number of
votes was 183; a during-the taking of these votes
the inspector wou)d:say,“lt is all right;” that 1b
all 1 knew of-the party outside; the judge would
prononhce>-U alj-right whether be saw the name
on thetbook or not; if tie didn’t see it directly, he
would, say, ‘‘AU right,” and then go ou with the
nextp iho only evidence which I would have was
Mr. Fletcher outside, having the window book,
saving.‘‘All right,” and the judge and inspector
repeating it; among the crowd voting I
remember ‘ one giving the name of Eng
lish, oh Ninth street; I challenged his vote;
the vote .was received and placed in the box; the
cry was “Ail right;” that man was Mike Fitz
gerald: voting a Mr. English's name; don’t know
where he whs from; know that hei is not a resi
dent of this city; I saw Fitzgerald afterward
when tie Was brought from New Tork on a
requisition; he was the man wbq voted on Mr.
English’s name; be was indicted, bat to my
knowledge, has never been tried; I was a witness
against him; 1 know of a man named Quigly vot
ing; he did not live in the Ward; I challenged his
vote twice; he tried to vote in tho afternoon; his
vote Was received In the morning; he was
not sworn nor did he produce any voucher; no
examination was made when I challenged; I con
tinued to make challenges on parties that I knew
were not voters; no attention was paid to my
challenges; they were entirely disregarded; 1
found that there was no use in challenging, and
I gave it up; there were no papers shown that
day or required by the judge or Inspector
exceptin the case ol one man voting on age,
and he brought his father’s naturalization
paper;!.have lived in that divlsionsoven years;
have been in that immediate neighborhood about
twenty-five years; there were a great many peo
ple voting who were strangers to me; there were
false pereonatlone and I knew them by the par
ties represented living In my square, but I did
not know the persons who were doing it; I voted
in that division; voted the full Republican ticket;
when I asked the jndge lor the book he said that
he knew his business.
Cross-examined—l Bat next to the window,
and tbe Democratic inspector sat opposite to me;
the judge held the llßt of taxables, and the clems
wrote the names,as they voted;tthe judge decided
to take Ihe votes without examining the book;
besides English and Fitzgerald, who were chal
lenged, there were Mr. McDonough and Charles
Brown challenged; Brown and McDonough both
voted; the Quigley that I challenged gave his
residence as Evangelist street; I challenged him
because be did not live there; Mr. Shultz, I
think, kept the Republican window-book outside;
I had never been an election officer there before;
never wsaasßessor of the Ward; James B. Eng
lish, 752 South Ninth street, was personated; that
of McDonough wbb personated; Charles Brown
was personated; I did not go to dinner, but staid
in until the polls closed.
Re-examined—l was sworn in the room by
Alderman Frank Devitt; I think James Devitt,
the judge, made the remark that he was sworn
the night before; my clerk and I think tho other
clerks were sworn when I was.
Edward Kelley testified—l was clerk for Re
publican Return Inspector in the Seventh Di-
vision, Third Ward, at tho Oelooer election;
■was there when the polls were opened the first
hour; had nothing to do but watch the progress
of the election; during the first hoar tho
votes were ■ received very fast; at one
time there were four or five hands in the
window with tickets in each hand; I made
no challenges that hour'; the first challenge
I made- that day was of a -person voting in
the name of John Deenoy; I objected to the vote
being received, giving a reason that it was not
John Doeney, and if it was John Doeney, he was
tattwemy years of age; they received the vote
without swearing him or requiring him to pro
duce a voucher; 1 also challenged a man voting
of <Jhnrle6 Brown, giving ub my rea

dueed; when I challenged a man voting as Huirh
Dougherty, he returned with a voucher, and tu-
rh.fiaiftßiranwifHiWWwri i i'pffsiiaia~ffl fmr
stead of swearing tho voucher, they swore him;
Mr. Shultz and! both insisted Jn, tho voucher
being sworn; ‘a -party, giving the name
of Edward Clayton, presented hlmsolf,
giving his residence southwest corner
of Ninth and Fitzwater; I objected because it
was not Edward Clayton, and.because This mail
had voted there once, before during the day; the *
vote was received without requiring a voucher or
swearing him; tho man who porsonated- Clayton
I think la named Wkalen or Whelan; a man call
ing himself‘Middleton Cropper presented him
self to vote; I objected to that because I didn’t
think tho parly voting was Mr. Cropper, and be
cause I understood that Mr. Cropper had only
been three or. four months from New Jersoy; that
volo was received, - notwithstanding,
my objection; no examination i what
ever was modo and my chafiehgo
was disregarded; I made abuut eight or ten chal
lenges on that day, and only in one instance
were they regarded; a man calling himself Chas.
W. Stearns, No. 804 South Eighth street, pro- :
sented himself; a man named Malone voted in
that name, and no challenge or examination
was made; when I first went into tho room
Robinson had tho book, but Mr. Devitt, tbe
jndge, picked it up, and when Robinson asked
him for it, he said— “X will attend to my busi
ness, sir;” ho took charge of the book; I voted in
that division; i didn’t open tho ticket, bnt.got-it
from Mr.' Robinson; I took It for.a .full Republi

The Historical Society.— The annnal 'tnoot-‘
ing of the historical Society was'held last even
ing at their'hall, the Ffesldent, the Hon. John
William Wallace*, presiding. :>■'=■•
* Prior to the reading of the essay, Mr. James
Rosa Snowden addressed the Society on behalf of
Augpstns C. Eaton, who presented the Society
with; a painting of his own execution. The pre
sent , was received and Mr.- Baton warmly,
tbanked. The picture represents Columbia, a
female figure snrronnded by darkness—typical of:
the darkness and misfortunes that surround the.’
early days of the republic.'' 7
After the President had escorted the visitors
round the room, explaining to them many ,of the
cariosities, Mr. Horatio Gates Jones,delivered an
address, of which the following is thesubatance:
He Bold that Andrew Bradford was a eon of
William Bradford, who was the first printer in the
Middle Colonies of America, and whose bicente
nary was celebrated in May, 1863, in New York,
where the Hon. John William Wallace delivered
the commemor&Uve discourse, which has since
been printed. Andrew Bradford was born in the
year 1686, In the city of Philadelphia, and re
mained here until 1693, when his father removed
New York. He learned the art of printing in his
father’s office, iu that city, and was indaced to
return to Philadelphia in 1712. He set up a press
and had the patronage of . the Society of Friends,
but Mr. Bradford was entitled to higher regard as
the father of the newspaper press in Pennsylva
ria. His paper, the Weekly Mercury , was issued
for tbe first time on December 22,1719, and he
continued to publish it weekly until his death, In
1742.
About nine years afterwards, viz: on the 24th
of December, 1728, a rival paper was established,
by Samuel Kelmer, called the Universal Instruc
tor in all Arts and Sciences, and Pennsylvania Ga
zette, under which latter namo it became in after
rears quite famous, as Franklin’s newspaper.
Keimergave np his interest in it to Fraaklin and
Meredith, September. 1729, stating that “ it not
(juadrating with the circumstances of the printer .
to publish the Gazette, any longer, he gives'notice
that it is the last that will bq printed by
modest but very plain way of saying that it did
not pay. . s .... ,
Mr. Jones then sketched the comparative merits
of the Mercui-y and Gazette, and Bhowed very
clearly that Bradford's paper wasin every respect
the equal of Franklin’s. He also referred to tho
books which Bradford published, especially the
Laws of the Province of Pennsylvania, as an evi
dence of bis thorough acquaintance with his art.
Letters and accounts were also produced in his
handwriting, showing that he'was not the illiter
ate person described by Franklin. The high
tone of his paper on all great moral questions
proved him to be a man who aimed at something
higher than merely to moke money, and his bold
ness in maintaining the rights of the press brought
upon him once a reprimand from, the Governor,
and afterword he Buffered Imprisonment for some
criticisms upon the Assembly which we regard
now ns very tame, and if ottered by the most vio
lent partisan at this day, would only cause him.
to be considered os lapsing into conservatism.
Bradford was also a bopkseller.and had a bind
ery attached to his offlee, which was located at
No. 8 8. Profit street, at the sign of the Bible, an
• fflee which was kept by some members of the
Bradford family for many years.
Mr. Bradford was chosen a councilman of tho
city ol Philadelphia, andtie was also postmaster
of the province, and a vestryman of Christ
Church.
Mr. Jones concluded his paper as follows:—An
drew Bradford was burled in the grounds of
Cbriet Church, to which parish he belonged. But
do monument survives to record the restiug
place of this benefactor to onr city and State, the
father of its newspaper press. Is this creditable
to cur Commonwealth, to our city, to our Typo
graphical Societies, or even to the Historical So
ciety? We owe to his memory some memorial
wbicb should invite the “pasting tribute" which
is assuredly his due.
The character of the worthy dead deserves pro
tection as much as that of the worthy Jiving-
Their virtues were as sterling as ours. JPtfey
lived, and labored, and toiled amid difficulties
unknown to us of the present age, and Js they
achieved their victories under circumstance’s
which would doubtless cause many now to fail,
their examples should never cease to animate all
who come after them. A beautiful cenotaph
marks the spot where lies ail that was mortal
ot Godfrey, the Inventor of the quadrant, and a
plain but enduring slab shows where Franklin
is buried. Our cemeteries and burial grounds
»ie filled with costly monuments to perpetuate
ihe names of prominent citizens, known chiefly
lor their high social position, or their great
wealth,and who,perhaps, bat lor these mute wti
nt sees, would now be unknown.
True it is that neither statue,nor urn,nor ceno
taph can add to the real fame or intrinsic merit
of Andrew Bradford, for so long as the press of
Philadelphia occupies the high position it does,
and wields its mighty power on society at largo;
so long as our newspapers are circulating their
pages by the hundreds of thousands every day
—penetrating alike tho mansion of the rich and
tho cottage of the poor—giving all tho current
literatnre oi the day and even important events
that are happening throughout our own country,
and in tho sume issue enabling us to know what
is actually occurring in London, Paris and Bt.
Petersburg, so long is the press of Philadefokia
his monument.
The thanks of the Society were presented .to
Mr. Jones, and a copy of his address requested
for publication.
The annual electioa then took place, with the
following result:
President—John William Wallace.

—The annual meeting Of the stockholders of ibis
rood was held yesterday.
The nineteenth annual report of the Board ol
Managers’ was presented. The earnings ot the
road for the year 1868 were $356,247 52—an in

able.
Tbe debt (less tbe cash on hand) at the end of
last year (1868) was $58,183 36 less than at the
end of 1867; much the greater part of which de

pany’s smallest locomotive—being the one in use
on tbe Weßt Chester Railroad—to the West
Chester Kail: ond Company.
The number of passengers carried during the

quickly as possible; they did try one door, but
it was tho one leading under the stage; there,
were chairs in the vacant space beside the stage
ond beyond tbo aisles.
Francis Wells, who was also present, testified that
the east aisle was not obstructed; he saw a chair
at the,end of the first bench and another at the
end of the second boneb, leaving an open spaco
of more than half the aisle.
Mrs. Annie Wistar, who sat near the mlddlo
aisle, testified thot tho middle passage-way was
not obstructed by cbairs,ahd she saw Mr. Beatty
compel parties to vacate chairs which hod boon
placed in the passage-way without his knowledge.
Miss Towno testified that She had a chair handed
to her in the middle'aisle, but soon afterwords
somn one came and said this was against the law,
and ;tbb chair was surrendered.
T. BLFUgh testified that ho was the manager

Eartjes could not get out because ot the open
atcbwoy.
Judge Strond, In bis charge to the jury, left it
as a’queetion of fact whether tho aisles or pas
sage 4 waya were obstructed; but in regard to

apply merely to the do ors which tho pubfic was ac
customed to use, but alt doors which would give
egress front,the,building, and these must be kept
unlocked always.
ThaJury tiaff not agreed upon a verdict when

NEW JEBSEIT OTAITKRS.
Destructive Fire.— About eleven o’clock last
night the dwelling honee of Mr. French, on the
Locg-a-comlng turnpike, about four miles from
Camden, was totally destroyed by fire, the in
mates barely escaping with their lives. ‘Mr. French
was considerably burned on his log and about the
face, in tiff heroic efforts to save his family,
which he fortunately succeeded in doing, at the
risk and Imperiling of his own life.- It is not
positively known how the fire originated, bnt it
is the general belief that it was the work of
incendiarism. The flames first broke out in the
wash-house adjoining the kitchen, where they
communicated rapidly with the other parts of the
building, Everything, except the pans and a few
other articles, was destroyed. The family es
caped in their night clotnine;, and lost everything
else, together with some money. The building
was owned by Mr. Samuel French;-of the firm of
French, Richards & Co.,’ Tenth and Market
streets, and occupied bv Mr. Charles French.
Tbe property was insured, but to what amount is
not known.
Impostors.— The authorities of Camden,—rn
their noble exhibitions of charity, often get im
posed upon by parties representing themselves
to be in destitute circumstances, when In fact
they are not. On several occasions applications
have been made and assistance given to persons
wbo. it was subsequently ascertained,had money
in the bank. ‘ These impositions have had the
effect to make the officers more careful in the
distribution ot appropriations made for that pur
pose, and sometimes the really needy experience
considerable suffering before their true condition
becomes positively known.
Printing in Camden.— Slnnickaon Chew. Esq.,
editor and proprietor of the West Jersey Press,
has purchased an ellglbly-looated lotnt the north
east corner of Front and Market streets,on which
ho will soon commence a large and handsome
building in which to conduct his paper. Mr.
Chew is the only proprietor of a printing-house
in Camden who uses steam-power, being the
first to introduce it in that capacity. His new
establishment will be a model concern, and pro
vided with all tbe requisite machinery for carry
ing on an extensive printing business.
A WonTHV Lady Gone.— Mrs. Beulah Archer,
a wortby and widely esteemed citizen of Camden,
died lit the residence of her Bon, B. F. Archer,
Esq., in tho seventieth year of her age, on Ban
day morning. She was a lady of noble Instincts,
and a universal philanthropist, os many in Cam
den can amply testify. Her enlarged views and
acts of benevolence endeared her to all; so tnnch
so, indeed, that in her death tho community, as
well as her relatives, have lost a kind inend and
benefactor.
Handsome Improvements. — A row of hand
some and commodious brick dwelling houses has
been Commenced on Clinton street, below Fifth,
In Middle Word, by Mr. John Ambrnster, who
Intends, it is sold, to bnild up an entire square.
This is the key-note to the rapid advancement of
improvements in Camden for the coming year.
It is estimated that fully Qve hundred new build
ings will bo orected. within a year hence,
United.— The Camden Library Association
and the Young Men's Christian Association have
consolidated their libraries, and now have up
wards of two thousand'valuable and entertainiug
books. The united associations are in a pros
perous condition,' and the influences' they are
now exerting are doing great good, both in an
intellectual and moral point of viow.
False Alarms.— I The old practice of false
alarms of lire seems to have been revived in Cam
den, and several runs of late have taken place.
Ab there is a fine imposed on the individual or
company who creates a false alarm, the ordi
nance in reference theroto should be enforced.
The (ifllccrs are oh the qui vive for the offenders.
Equalizing Freightage,— Petitions to the
Legislature are baing numerously signed In Cam
den, prayiDg that body to pass an act equalizing
the rates of freightage on the various railroads
of‘New Jersey. The menßuro oppoars to bo a
popular one: for everybody, irrespective of
political predilections, signs it.

A FRENCH REVOLUTIONARY STORY.
“Bpiridion,’’ the 'PariB corfeapfinfitmtlof
' the Boston Gazette writes: ' ’ "
I beard the other day an anecdote which
r is bo thoroughly French, and is so capital an
illnstration of some of the minor causes
Which make revolutions successful, you must
let me repeat it Jtb y0u.,,. A few,, days. .since a,,
drawing-room; full of: company,’, wh9 dis- l
cussing some recent publications, when one
of the guests said: “Do you know Charles
R ? There is a fellow who is under great
obligations to his creditors! As ho is below
mediocrity ho would have languished in ob -
scurity all bis life had he not run over
head and ears in debt. I met him at ten
o’clock, A. M., on December 2, 1851. We of
course talked, of the immense kick wo had re
ceived in our hack. *Hd took the event philo
sophically, saying: ‘The broom has been used;
adroit people have nothing to .do hut to get
on the side of the broom-stick! to quote de
Moray's admirable expression.’ I asked
Charles: ‘ls that your opinion?’ He answered:
‘I am no longer free to hold any other. I
have crossed the Rubicon. Yesterday, a dirty
doe of a tradesman, to, whom I have the mis
fortune to owe several thousand francs, warned
the that unless I paid him something on ac
count „by twelve o’clock to-day. he should
hhve me arrested. As I have debtors’jails in
honor, I gotuo (contraiYto.tay usual habit)
before six o’clock this morning, determined
to hunt the pockets of all : my friendstyoß,
—knowDne gives this Ulle"to - ainns acquaints
anccs when he wishes to use them) to see If I
could discover an idle five hundred franc
bank Bote. While I was jogging along the
street uneertatn where to make my first ap
peal, 1 observed three or four workmen on
their way to the day’s labor, who were stand
ing before a bill printed on white paper.
I Joined the group and read : “French
men, the present situation . can last
no -.longer. Bach day which passes
away aggravates the country’s dangers."
But'yon know that, proclamation as ‘well as
Ido! I said to myself: “The deuce! This
is something new!”; As soon as I saw what
was going oh I reflected, and after a while
said to myself: “The Coup d'Etat kept
vigils all night long, consequently 'tis a
whole winters night ahead of resistance
which still shores; so there is a thousand to
one in favdr of its winning the race.” I had
no sooner, reached this conclusion than I
turned my nose towards the Palace of the
Eiyece and ran as fast as I could go. You
know at prinuM’ houses a register Is kept
open on which visitors; write their names. At
half-post 6 o’clock this morning I was in
the porter’s lodge of the Elysee, asking him
for pen and ink. He gave mo an astute
glance, as much as to say: “There's a fellow
who is up to snuff.” The page of the day was
still blank; there was not a name upon it I
wrote mine in conspicuous litters on it, tak
ing care to, join my address, and to make all
mistake impossible I added, “Bravo! ’’ Wasn’t
it well played!, Louis Napoleon don’t know
me, but as my name is the very first on"the
list, it must attract his attention. To be the
first one to applaud, the first one to congratu
late, is good luck.' I asked Charles: ‘I did
not know you belonged to the party of the
Elyßcc?’ He answered: ‘I did not yesterday,
I don’t even belong to it now; as for saying
to which party I snail belong to-morrow —-
sufficient for the day is the evil thereof:' Ten
days afterwards I read in Le Moniteur that
Charles R—— was appointed sub-prefect
You know how-he has risen since—Prefect,
Councillor of State, Benator. I met him two
months ago. As I was coming np from Mar
seilles he entered at Dijon station the carriage
in which I sat Wo were alone, die asked
me: ‘Do yon still belong to the opposition?'
I answered-. ‘Alas! old fellow,everybody does
Dot get np at bix o’clock on December morn
ings.' He pretended he did not catch the al
lusion.”
Forlleih cengreis-Thlrd Sesaioo,
BrwATg.—Mr. Morgan introduced a bill to se
en re copyrights for painting, drawing and statu
ary models.
Mr. Wilson, from the Committee on Military
Affairs, reported adversely the joint resolution in
relation to Ihe grades of General and Lieutenant
General in the Brmy, and also Admiral and Vice
Admiral in the navy.
On motion of Mr. Edmunds, the rcsolntion.of
fertd by him oh Saturday, in relation to the
moffe of counting the vote of Georgia for Presi
dent and Viee President, was token up. \
Mr. Trumbull thought tbat Georgia was en
titled-to have her vole counted, while Mr. Ed
monds thought she was not. Mr. Whytejqonlfe
nof see the propriety of raising tho
when Georgia had already Representativeslin the
House. Mr. Conkling said these Representa
tives hod been elected before the impediment
aroeb.
Discussion was interrupted by the expiration
of the morning honr, which brought up the Con
stitutional amendment Mr. Sanisbary woe en
titled to tbe floor.
Hr. Edmunds appealed to him to give way for
a vote upon the resolution In regard to thocount
ing of the electoral vote of Georgia, bnt~-
Mr. Saulebury declined, and addressed the Sen
ate at length against the Constitutional amend
ment. i
Mr. Edmundß suggested that, in view of the
nearness of> the .'day upon which the .electoral
voles must bo counted, It was necessary that,
some action should be taken upon bis resolution
in regard to the inode of counting the vote of
Georgia. He therefore asked consent to a sus
pension of the debate on the amendment long
enough to allow the Senate to act on the resolu -
tion.
Consent being given, Mr. Edmunds' resolution
was carried—yea 3. 31, nays 11.
The Senate then resumed the discussion of the
Constitutional Amendment, in advocacy of
which Mr. Frelinghuyeen made a brief speech.
Mr. Ilayls took the floor, and annoonced that
he proposed to disease the pending amendment
for several hours, wherenpon the Senate took a
recess until 7 o’clock- • *
Evening Session The Senate reassembled at 7
P. M. The President announced the appoint
ment of Mr. Harlan as an additional member of
the Committee on Indian Affairs.
Mr. Davie.bolng entitled to the floor, yielded it
to Mr. Abbott, who made an argument in favor of
the amendment.
Mr. Ddv,is then resumed the floor, and spoke
at length against the amendment.
The following amendment,which had been pre
viously offered by Mr. Davis, was then voted
down:
"But Congress, having authoritv to propose
amendments to the Constitution of the United
States only, this provision is not intended to ap
ply to or in any way affect tho principles and
forms of government of the several States ’’
Mr. WiUianis then offered again his substitute
for report of the committee:
"Congress shall have power to abolish or
modify any restriction upon the right to vote or
to hold office prescribed by tho constitution or
laws of any State.”
Mr. Welsh made an argument to show how fu
tile and trivial wero all the objoctioes to giving the
negro the right to vote on account of race, color,
or intellectual unfitness, when weighed against
his transcendent patriotism.
Mr. Rose was in favor of giving the negro the
suffrage, bccauso it was right to do so, and for
other reasons, which were not audible iu tho re
porters’gallery.
Mr. Hendricks moved to adjourn. Lost—yeas
14, nays 37.
Mr. Fowler was the next speaker. Ho did uot
believe that undor our composite governmental
system either the Stuto or tbe Fedoral Govern
ment could properly be called sovereign. In his
judgment, the only sovereign in a republic like
outs wub the individual believing in the sacred
ness of individual rights. Ho was necessarily a
believer in States’ rights, because cxparienco had
shown . that only from a government ih a groat
degree local could individual righjß find adequuto
and constant prelection. V *'
Universal snffrago he regarded as logically a
part of our system, and he, was in favor of giving

'every pereonrman or-woman- held responsible

posed to the monstrous> proposition reported
from tho Judiciary . Committee; because It pro
posed to change the Constitution, not in the in
jtercet of humanity, but only in the Interest of a
(portion of the colored race, while it would leave
fo larger number of whites still disfranchised; and
'.alto because it proposed, to deprive tho States of
,one of their, most Important rights,
j .Mr,.Howard criticised the amendment reported

[United States of African descent shall have tho
jsamc right to vote and hold office in the Btates

[a direct way aceompli-h the object in view—the
jCnfranehisement of the colored race in this
,country. He also, in reply to Mr. Hendricks’s
ire-marks, some days elncu, made a brief argument
(to show that tho Republican party, in proposing
Ibis amendment to tbe Constitution, did not vio
late any pledge, expressed or implied, in the Chi
cago pisiform.
! Mr. Howard’s speech was followed Jjy a run
ning debate between Messrs. Bamner, Hendricks,
Howard, and Warner; in the cdurso'of which,
j Mr. Hendricks said that the power 01 Congress
and ihree-fonrtks of the States to dmend tho
Constitution was limited to making changes
found necessary to remedy defects in tne practl
pl operations of the Government, and did not
extend to changes subversive orthe poorer of go
vernment.
I Mr. Warner said that tho people had an un
limited right to change the Constitution and form
bj government, even to tbe extent of abolishing
the Presidency and setting np a king instead.

it was an argument in- favor of giving them the

emption and homestead laws, and the Jaw for dis
posing of towns and cities, and regulating farther

of/ January, 1869.
, .MrTYlke asked Mr. Schenck whether he would
admUJgseusfiion on the bill.
Sir. Beit nek safd ho wonld not. He thought it
bad been - sufficiently discussed, and moved to

United States Supreme Court,
Hannibal Green vs. Morris 8. Van Bu6kirk ct
al In error to the Bnpreme Court of tho State
of New York. In this case one Bates, being the
owner of certain iron safes at Chicago, executed
a chattel of them, in the State of New York, to
Van Busklrk and others. Soon after, Green
caused to be levied on the safes, as the property
ol Bates, a writ of attachment sued out of the
proner-court in Illinois. The attachment suit
proceeded to jndgment, and tho Bsfea were sold in
satisfaction of Green’s di bt.
Van Buskirk, Green and Bates nre all citizens
of New York. Green’s attachment was levied
on the safes, as the property of Bates, before
possession was delivered to Van Baßkirk, before
the mortgage from Bates to him was recorded,
and before nolicoef its existence. Van Busklrk
afterwords sued Green in New York for tbe value
cf the safes thus sold under tho attachment, and
Green pleaded tho proceeding in the court of Illi
nois in bar of the action. Van Busklrk obtained
judgment in tho New York conrt, which was af
firmed on appeal, and from thatnfllrmancea writ
of error was,token to this court. . ' ,
Mr. Jubtlcu. Davis now-dellyefcd tbe -opinion
•of the Court, reversing the jndgment below, for
niosons in snbstatieo.as follows: . ■
The policy of the law of'Mlnpla will not per
mit the owner of personal property to sell it, dud
still continue) in posaeosion of it. If betweon tha
parties, withoot ii delivery,thesaleisvfttld f tt
has no effect on third persons who; in good faith
hcquire a liCnj/On \it,:for!fhv attaching creditor
Itands ln the sight 6t a purchaser; and- wrench
Will be protected. If Green, after date of tho
levy of his .attachment, did “not know .of this,
mortgage, and subsequently forfeited 'bis attach-
Incut by judgment, execution and sale, the at
tachment held, tbe .property, although after date
bf the levy of execution he did know oflt. Such
Is.,the doctrine.of the courts ofDllnoJty welt es
lajdUtiediV-i ,i'fj 1/, } ;'U,fVi. J.i U 1 Cs >
The act bf 1700, passed in execution of an ox
>reEs power conferred by the Constitution, de
lates that tbe recorder a judgment, authenti
cated in a particular manner, shall have tho
tome faith and credit in all toe States as it has in
the State court from whenco it is taken.
! Tbe tbeory of the court below was that the
voluntary transfer of persona) property is every
where to bo governed by the law of the owner’s
domicil, and this tbeory proceeds on the fiction
of law that the domicil of tho owner draws to it
Ihe personal estate which he owns, wherever it
inay happen to be located. Bat this fiction is by
no means of OnlvcrEaVapplleatlon; btff/qs Judge
Btory says,'“yields wlieneverltis necessary for
jbo purposes of jnstlce tbat tbe actual situs
bf the thing should bo examined.” It has
yielded In New York in the power of tbe
State to tax tbe personal property of one of her
Citizens situated in a sister State, (The People ex
bel Hoyt vs. the Tax Commissioners, 23 N. Y. t
!23,) acd always yields to laws “ tor attacking
he estate of non-residents, because each laws
necessarily assume that property has a situs en
tirely distinct from the owner’s domicil.” If
New York cannot eempel the personal property
of Hates, (one. o£her.citlzens) r in. Chicago,; to con
tribute lni)w> i»Tpetmfn-n£.hnt-frnvftramnntj-anf>-
if Bates had the legal right to own each property -
there, and. was protected in Us ownership, by. tho...
laws oftbeßtate, and as the fiowdr to protect
implies the right to regnlate,, it wonld seem to
follow tbat the dominion of Illinois over tbe
property was; complete, acd her right perfect to
regulate its transfer, and subject it to process and
execution,i in her own.way, and- by her own
laws.
Green’s right,'under the Constitution and the
laws of Congress, invoked to his. aid - in this case,
is not at all affected by,‘the question of citizen
ship. We cannot see why. if Illinois, in tho
spirit of enlightened legislation, conceded to
citizens of other Btates equal privileges with her
own in her foreign attachment law, that the
judgment against tbe personal estate located in
her limits, of a non-resident debtor, which a
citizen of New- York - lawfully obtained there,
should have a different effect given to it under
the provisions of Ihe Constitution and the latfs
-of Congress, because-the debtor against whose
property it was recovered, happened also to ho
a citizen of'New York.’The judgment Is reversed
and the cause remitted with instruction to enter
judgment for the plaintiff in error.
