Funeral of De. : Willi ah Darlington,

Darlington took place at two o’clock last Sunday
afternoon. The character of the late deceased, and
hiß eminent worth, were sufficient to make the cere

give a better idea of thiß than any mere descriptive
wording: * :
At a meeting of the-vcßtry of the Ohurchof the

following testimonial was ordered to be placed upon

to Oakland Cemetery, where the last sad ceremonies
were performed. The death of Dr. Darlington Is
one whose effect, will be widely anil severely■ felt.
His friends in this city, at West Cheater,:and clsc

so useful and so good.
Iktebestikg Scene-at the Corn 'Ex
chanok.*—Yesterday, at the Corn Exchange,'Mr.
John Patterson, a pronoinentmember of the Liver
pool Corn Trade,*was introduced by Mr. A. G-. Cat
xell fts a represeotative of the Lancashire people,
who had received the bounty of Philadelphia. Mr.
Ofcttellsaiil that Mr. Patterson was the first mairto'
convince the people of Liverpool that Jame 3 Spence,
was .an/accredited agent of the rebels. He was one'
of the committee to,, welcome the American contri
bution for: the retief of Lancashire, and' he had al
ways taken the deepest interest in the progress of
liberty in America. . ..
Mr. Patterson then rose, and was received with
'cheers/ He expressed;his grateful feelings at re
ceiving so formal yet'hearty a reception. He did
not come here to.seek applause, but-in liis heart of
hearts he felt he must support -the cause of liberty
which*was at stake. -If he had acted otherwise
than he had done, hewould have proved recreant to
the cause of his fellow-men. He.uid not come with
any intehtion to take part in American politics ; the
Amerioan'peopleknew how to manage their own
aflairsTjest. But' he would say that, eince the Pre
sident’s Proclamation of he had taken the
deepest intei est in the course of-public opinion in
- England. Since his arrival in America-he had felt
. the deepest satisfaction at eeeing the unanimity of
the people in support of liberty and the Union, und
he declared that the people oi-England were .with
•the North. * He had never seen ;a man who would
dare to stand up and boldly advocate negro slavery.
In England everybody was opposed to slavery. Some
opposedit with a “but.” but the majority were
agaiDßt'it without any _‘‘buts. n
, , In closing, Mr. Patterson spoke ofthe gratitude
of the Lancashire people ; not alone for the flour
which had been sent, but for the heartfelt sympathy
manifested in the generous gift.
The address was'frequently interrupted by np
, plnuaCj and at the close three hearty cheers were
given forthe speaker.

[Before Mr.' Alderman White.]
Juvenile Thieves—A Hearing and aLccturc*
Four little boys had ahearing last evening, before Mr
Alderman White* on the charge of stealing four sheep
. from the. stall of Mrs. Jane Maheiv No: 76 South Second
street Market. The sheep were taken about four o’clock
; on Saturday , afternoon; and was so boldly done that
persons passing by did not scarcely suppose the young
sters were stealing the meat:-' The lads, gave the names
of Joseph Lloyd, Mark Silverthorn, Michael Harrington,'
and M. Deboss; The average age ofiheseboys was only
■ about eight or line years; one of them had not yet reach
led the. age of seven. . The meat.thus stolen was sold to a
woman calling herself Bridget McAllister, who keeps a
soft of boarding house on Penn street, below Lombard.
ISte gavefbe cliDdren seventy*fi,ve cents - for it, though
it cost Mrs. Maher fifteen dollars. With the money
. ;thuB obtained, tickets were purchased for admission
into one or ;two of the concert saloons, on Saturday
evening. ■
Mrs. Maher, tbo lady who:had: been, “testified
• that she left the market-house shortly after two o’clock
on Saturday:afternoon, having locked :all her meat in
the stall, with her scales, weights, moneydrawer, &c.
Every now and then, for five months past, her stall had
been robbed. On one occasion her account-book was
taken, which was a loss of fifty dollars to her.
The little hoys told a plain story about the whole af
fair. They Baid that an older boy had what he called a
: v **jimmy,“ withwliich-ihe pried th,e lock off in a mi
nute. The mtat was then taken in bags, or carried
openly, and sold .to Mrs:, McAllister. The robbery
was made known to Mrs. Maher on Saturday eye
. ning, and she-had a warrant issued .by the-worthy
"magistrate .of the Fifth; ward, who placed- it into
theshanda. of Officer Miller. The young scamps lived in
Belief alley, and the officer not finding them at home,
thought the; be?-t thing he could do was to watch for
them. ' About midnight they approached their'homes,
when ho ti ok tfiern into custody. These are about all
The facts that developed at the hearing. Theoflice
was filled to suffocation with. parties and parents. • One
of the mothers claimed that her boy was not seven years
old, and, therefore, did not know.it was a crime to steal.
‘ The alderman pronounped a severe though just lecture
.to the parents of the juvenile prisoners. What kind of
parents are you, that you could quietly stay in your
houses, and go to sleep when you were aware of the
absence'of your little children? Abroad after night--
fall; going to concert saloons that might well make mo--
rality shudder, and coning home at late hours, after
- revelling in sin and iniquity ;upon means obtained
,hy thieving. Shame ought to Crimson the faces of every
oneofytiu. Society has rights, and one of those rights.
. Is, that parents should pay proper attention to their chil
dren; for certain it is, that if you do not use proper re
. straining inllaences over y our children, they- will, when
iheygrow a little older, become burglars and murder
ers,and end their lives in the prison or on the gallows.
Society must be protected. The boys, except Deboss.
; must enter bail iu $BOO each, to answer. As for you, Mre. :
McAllister, yon must enter bail in the sum of $l,OOO, to
answer the charge of receiving stolen goods. The case
' of Deboss will be held under-advisement. He seems to
be entirely too youug to comprehend what thieviugis.
..Thus the case was broughfto a close. The remark of
the-Alderman were timely, and may do some good.
' There are other parents in this city.who seem to let their
chi drea.iunloose about the streets: They would profit
somewhat, if'they give heed to the remarks of Mr. -Al
derman White.

case of Hodgson, vs. Mill ward to the Circuit Court :•
Thiß is a petition for the removal of a cause pend

under the provisions of ilie fifth section of the act
. of Congress of March 3, 1863. The case'ftppears to 'hare

.: Statos marshal for this district, and two of his deputies.
A declaration having been filed, - and issues of . fact

qnenced, befoTe s any State court whatever, 1 after final
judgment, for eiihermrty to remove the same by ap

. . jrnne theJacts.vand the Jaw In [such, action, in the same
a%i(;tlis-sarne had.been there originally begun
the judgment in such casonotwithstanding. Clearly the
v Tight to'rmovo dues not depend upon the extent.ofpvd
jfress which the raiise has made in the State Court when
the removal is attempted. - To my mind, it is plalu that -
Congress intended, 1 at the instance of a defendant, to
transfer from the State to the Circuit Court, any'sult or
prosecution of the nature described, at any stage o e its
progress.' No matter In what condition it may have been
when ths ac.tbf Coniii'esfc w»s passed, ii cjmmenced be
fore, an Jan appearance had been entered, a petition fa/
its removal-was authorised at the next se sion
court, or if judgment had been obtained, an appeal was -
allowed during the term at which it was Big- ed, or a
writ of error within six months sifter its r 6 edition.' Buoh‘ *
'is the letter of the act, as well as its clear spirit, and'
like every other act, it must be construed so as to darry
out its spirit. One mode of removal was prescribed be
fore judgment Two other modes were pointed out fora
removal after jndgmonfc;•' But when removed, the. cause
is to proceed in the Circuit Court in the same man
ner as if it had been brought therein by origi
nal process. And the act contemplates that, in the
cases-of . which it the trial of both the.
law'and • the * , facts' i thall be couducted in the Circuit-'
Court, untiammelled by anything the State Court may ,
have done. If,the suit between the present parties,' then, \
wns pending when this 'petition was fiU'd, as it unques
.tionaoly'was, and-if it belongs to the cases,
which Congress had in view.'it is no sufficient reas6u for
my.refusing to allow the removal.prayed for. and to stay
procecdirgs hero, that there has been a verdict of a jary, ;
but no judgment. Not* is it part of mv duty to; inquire
how the Circuit Courtis to proceed in the performance of
the'dutiee imposed upon if by’the act'of Congress. Yet,
: if the facts and thelaw cm be tried thereafter judgment
in a dtato Court, I do not sec why they may not?be tried '
as well after .verdiot. and before;judgment.Au appeal
from one court to another is certainly as effective before
as it is after an.adjudication. But. without invading the'
province of the Federal Court, it is enough for ine now
to say that, m my opinion, there is nothing in the state
.of the record-in this coUrt. which 'prevents a removal of
the casein its present condition after verdict and before
judgment. The' time and the mode of removal are pro
vided for in the act of. Congress. .. •
- It isiiextinrged that the case sought to be removed'
does not belong to the class of cases for which provision
was made byUheact of March 3, 1863. It is said no act
of C<?ngreBs;authorized the seizure of property, or tho
tre§pass;fotf which this suit .wasbrought, and that there
was no authority for it derived from or exercised under
the. President of the United States. . The record of an at
tempted condemnation of the property seized has been
submitted to mo, from which it appears that; on infor
mation by the District Attorney ot the United States, in
the Circuit Court.,a writ of. attachmentl.was issued
against the property seized; that William H;-Hodgson,
-the present plaintiff, put. in a claim aad-answer; ana
that the Circuit Court, on v the 14th of October, 1861, _dis
misped thejnformation, alloweo.the claim, and ordered
that the property be forthwith delivered to the claimant.
Hence, it is argued, it has been adjudicated that the sei
zure was not under or by authority of an act- of Con- :
gress; Again, it is insisted the evidence given on the
trial before.the jury in this court shows there was no au
thority for the seizure or trespass from or under the Pre
sident of theTJnited States. /;-■'
The inference drawn from the action of the; Circuit
Court dismissing the information is too large. I shall
not go into the question whether the act of Congress of
Auguste, 1861, was authority for the act for which these
defendants are sued. Itmaybe conceded-nowithat the'
property was erroneously seized; /But the: failure of‘an;
• attempt to condemn it no more proves that the seizure
waf not made by virtue of the act than-does a failure, of
an information for the condemnation of. goods seized asc
smuggled proves that the seizure was not made by vir- ;
tueof the revenue laws. I agree, .however, that it is for
the petitioners to make out affirmatively that the case
they reek to remove is of the class, described in the
-act of ;1563 The burden is on them;". ’lt is; not for:
•their opponent to* show the contrary. ' Was, then,
the act done/by them, for/whioh they are sued, an.
act done by virtue of any/authority, derived from
or exercised by or under the President of the United
States, or any act ofCongress, or was it by. or. under
color of such authority? Tor if it was, then the case is
•'Within-the--leiter actof.March 3, 1863.
Whether .the act was in reality authorized by- act of Con-/
gross, or by the President’, is' ho‘f„tbe.'whole question.
- Wak it ostensibly so? Was there color of;sucu autlio-'
;rity? The defendants, who are the petitioners,'were,
executive officers of the United; States—a marshal and
his deputies. The record in this case shews that they
acted under an order or warrant from'the District Attor
ney: which requested them to seize the property for con
.iUcation and condemnation, according to the provisions
of the act of August v 6.'‘lS6l, a'nd the warrant also, ad
seried antliority;from. the v President of -the United
States. It was signed by the District Attorney as such, -
and it -was directed' to-William Millward,. marshal.'*
If this was hot’ color*-of'authority, butli of».aa act
’of Congress, and the -.President’s order,'-what would
he? - Color, is an.‘apparent or iprimd facie right.- It:;
may hate’' no substance;/ but 'if :there bs au .appear-;,
ance of light or authority;- it id colorable. : Tais autho- s
-rity, real or colorable, the-defendants’pleaded at the -
trial, and its efficacy is one*of the main pointß in contro
versy ' called ; upon to express .any
upon the question, whether the ; act of the defendants
•was in *fact authorized by the President of the United.
States, There is evidence in our record that it was, v but
;;it is sufficient tnat when/the act of wlii-jh: the. plaintiffs
■complain was'done there was in‘theliaadsof thede
fenaants-an apparent authority from the President; and
that the seizure was made uuder the? asserted warrant
of an fret of Congress'. asserted by thcDistrict Attorney,
whose duty It was under the aetto attend to tlie seizure
and condemnation of the property which it was the in
dention of Congress should,be .confiscated; lam clearly:
of opinion that this case is one of those embraced in the
provisions of the act of Congress of March 3d,-1863.
Finally, it is contended that.the act which provides for.
the removal of such cases/is/unconstitutional:. Sitting,
as I am. at Nisi Prfus, Ishould be very unwilling to de--
Clare any act of .Congress unconstitutional except ina;-
very clear case.;' It is enough for my present action that
l do not perceive'that this act is a clear violation of the
Constitution/ The thira article of the Federal Consiitu
, tion'declaresthat the judicial power shall extend to all
cases in law and equity arising under this Constitution,/.
the laws.ofth'e United Slates; aud treaties/ Then, if tlie -
cases provided for,in the act of Congressrof March 3,1863,
are such as arise under the'Constitution, or under the
laws of the United States* or under treaties, jurisdiction i
over them may .lawfully be conferred upon the Federal
- courts; as it was 1 in another cl tss of cises by the 12th
, section-.of-tho; judiciary act of 1789. 'What'Cases, then, .
"arise/undev'the laws 'of the United! States'within the
>meaningofthis provision ’ " Not in which a -
plaintiff comes into court to. demand something conferred
’upon* him by law." When a defendant- seeks protection
undersuch a law, it is a case, arising under itl/Tnis was
the construction adopted, in the infancy of the Constitu
tion, if the.2sth section of thej'udiciary act, and without
'it the main object of this.clause would-be defeated. Thai
object, doubtless, was~to. preserve uniformity‘of con
struction alike of the Constitution, of treaties, and of the
/laws. , See 2 Story on tlie Constitution, section'l64B. See,
also, section 1646. / :. - z 1 . .
Id section 1647, the author uses this language: “In
deed, wherever, in a judicial proceeding, any questions
arise touching the validity of a treaty. : orstatute: or au
thority .exercised .under the Unitedx States, or touching
the ci nstruction of any clause of the Constitution, or any
statureor'.treaty of.the United States, it has been in
variably held to be a case to which the judicial power of 1
theJJmted States extends. 1 Wheaton, 304, Martin vs.

of.Unitcd .Stages.lt lias also been recognized that cases;
may: arise under, the laws of the United States by im-. -
plication, so that they come under the judicial; power
of the. Federal Government. It is not unusual for a 1
legislative act .to involve consequences not expressed.
An officer, for example, is ordered to arresi aa indi
vidual. It is not necessaiy, nor is it usual,- to say'that
he shall not be punished for obeying his order. Hisse
curity is , implied ;in 'the order itself. It is no unusual/
thing for.an act ofCoiigress to imply, without expressing;
,this very exemption Irom-State control. The collectors '

in their natore, are examples inpoint. -It has never been .
doubted that all wlio are employed in them are protected '
W'hile in the line of their duty, , and yet this protection is 1
not expressed in any act of Congress. / It is incidental to'
and is implied in the several acts by which those ineti
tutions are created, and is secured to.the individuals em
ployed in them by the judicial power alone; that is, tlie ?
judicial-power is the by the Go- .
vernment: in administering' this security. - Story, sec. /
,1656. The; construction of au act. of Congress, at all
events, when a claim or a defence arises out of it; is un
doubtedly within the province of the Federal:judiciary,
made so by ,the letter of the Constitution. : •
Ifi -thenr the judicial p iwer of the Federal Govern

adjudication of such cases, the right of Congress to Cpro-V
'vide forthe removal Of them from the State to the Fede- ;

.exercised in the judiciai*y act of 1789, and it has been
