WU.IT THK Dtt ED SCOTT CASK DKCIDED,
AND WHAT IT DIU SOT DEL'IDK.
The Boston Law Reporter fur June con-
tains a very abld And thorough review or tbo
Dred Scott "Decision," which will enable the
reader to know what tho Supreme Uonrt has
clodded in mat important case for more read
ily and clearly thnn be can learn from the
official report itself. In Tact, the review has
dono just what the reporter. Mr. Howard,
in long and confused head-notes attempted,
but Tailed to accomplish.
Those, also, who desire to understand, not
merely the points which tho so-called deci
sion really decidod, but what it did not de
cide, will do well to consult the Law Repor
ter's article, the authorship 'of which is as
cribed to Horace (Jrny, Jr., and John Lowell
two well known legal gentlemen or Boston.
The result of tlieir investigation of the deci
sion, is briefly stated, as follows :
"FmsT. As to the question, 'Can a negro
be a citizen of tho United States t' It has
been commonly supposed that tlw Court de
cided this qncstiou in the negative. This is
a mistake. From the form in which it was
presented it was very doubtful whether it was
before the Court for a decision. Four of the
tiiun Judges thought that it was ; these wore
the Chief Justice, and Justices Wayne and
iJauiel who answer the question in the nega
tive, and Justice Cuslis, who answers in the
murm.uive. ut ine j uiigos who give no opin
ion upon tho point, one (Judge M'Lean) do
vlurc? t hut if he answered the question ut ull,
it would be in the affirmative. Judgo Cutrou,
vhen Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of
Tennessee, gave an opiuion directly involving
mi affirmative answer to the question ; the
three oilier Judges gire no cluo to their opin
ions. On this question, then, the Court stunds
thus : three in the affirmative, threo iu thu
negative, and threo silent.
SacrtKni.r. Wns t'in Missouri Compromise
Constitutional? It is a peifeetly well-settled
principle of t'le Supreme i'ourt, and one that
lias been ollen laid down Mom its bunch, that
no part of an opiuion of the Court is to be
regarded as 01 authority as a precedent wnicn
was not necessary to tho determination oftheJ
. . . . ... . I
question before it. Anything beyond this is
nierely the expression of the individual opin
ion of the judge ; and it has been well said
that "if general dicta are to be considered as
establishing the law, nothing is yet settled or
can long be settled." Hearing this in mind,
let ts look at the facts of tho case. Scott
was a slave in Missouri ; was taken by his
master to Illinois, and thence into a territory
of the United Stales whero slavery was pro
hibited by thu Missouri Compromise, and
thence back to Missouri. The opinion of tlio
-Court is placed upon tlu ground that the
laws of Missouri iro to decide whether Scolt
is or is not a slave, now that he has returned
thither. If this be so, whr.l matters it whe
ther the Compromise was valid or invalid T
In other words, whether Scott was free when
in Illinois, or in tho territory, or whether ho
continued to be a slave ull the lime? And if
tlie Court goes out of its way to give an opin
ion on this point, could a plainer instance be
fo.ind of an opinion ou a point not necessary
to the determination of the rights of tho pur
tics. 'The Court, then, lias not decided that the
Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional.
"Thirdly. This case is often spoken ol as
deciding that a master may take his blave to
b free State and there hold him us a blave.
This is a simple mistake ; there is uo such
j.oint decidud. Hut
'Fou'kthi.y. The doctrine is here estab
lished, that if a slove be taken by his master
to a free State, and does not there claim his
liberty, but consents to return with his mas
ter to a nlave State, he may be held as a slave
there, if the highest Court of that Slate con
siders him still to be a slave. In other woids
the Dred Scott case does not decide that a
negro is a slave in a froe Slate, because ho
w as a slave in the State from which he was
brought, nor, that a slave carried from a slave
to a fee State and brought back, is free be
c u-e he might have claimed his freedom iu
the free State ; nor that lie is uocessarily a
slave after his return; but leaves his freedom
or slavery to bo settled by the laws of the
elavo State to which he relumed with his
master."
THE rilOPOBATIOS OK FISH.
It oppenrs to ns, that this country is sadly
bihind hand in relation to modern experiment
of raising fish. The French unci the Germans
imvtf gone to work i earnest, and thus im
mense quantities of fili are produced in nat
ural as well as artificial ponds. The Legisla
tures of .UjS'iichuseUs, Connecient, Ohio and
New Hampshire have appointed special com
mittees to investigate the subject, und report
fuels. Wo have recently read tho reports
made to tho Massachusetts and Connecticut
legislature?, and some portions of (Jurlicks'
Treatbe on artificial propagation of certain
kinds of fish. The conclusion urnved ut by
these reports is, that the trout, pickerel, yel
low porch, the giro-fish aud eel can bo easily
und profitably propagated und raised iu water
udi'pti d to t or peculiur natures
The Deiks and Schuylkill Journal says
"that tho trout, the most beautiful of fish,
liiiytr.nily bo raised by every farmer whoso
grouuds are supplied with u clear und cool
t prin,'. A furmer iu Franklin county has for
several years raited one hundred pounds per
annum, for family a;e. A greater and more
healthy luxury for the table cannot be found.
A spring ot clear water issues from the hill
side, some, thirty rods from his Louse eud
under the shada of spreading elms, he has
constructed artificial ponds, none of them ex
ceeding three feet in depth or thirty feet in
length. Some portions of each pond is pro
vided with a sandy bottom ut a shallow depth.
Tbo size of the stream is so small that none
except the smallest trout cun pass from one
pond to the other. He usually feeds bis stock
during the summer season every morning fur
nishing them with the common angle worm,
grass hoppers, garden worms, minced meat
and corn bread, the rapidity of their growth
depended on the ubuudauce, of the supply
furnished."
The pickerel and perch, regarded by many
quite as palatable as the trout, can be raised
in less cool and transparent wuter than the
trout. The pickerel is a bold biter and a
handsome, daring fish. The perch is a hardy
fellow, perfectly adapted to tiuggish water?,
txsi as a table fish ranks very fair, particular
ly in winter and spring.
lu t'hii a for ceuiurios tbo propogation of
Hsu ban been as common und well understood
us tho raisin:; of corn and fruit in this coun
try. Our people ara not compelled to iuti
mate ihu Celestials iu producing tho means
of subsistence, but wo believe the rearing of
choice fish for the table, can to a certain
extent, be mude an agreeable aud profitable
business by those having the owuership of
clear aud cool waters.
A plastic material possessing some pro
perties of peculiar value may be made, it is
6uid, by mixing five parts of sifted whiting
with a solution of one purl of glue. When
the whiting is worked up into a paste with
the glue, a proportionate quantity of Vvnetiau
turpentino is added to it, by which the brittle
uoss of the paste is destroyed ; and, in order
t o prevent its clinging to the hands whilst
the turpentine is being worked into the paste,
a small qaautilv of linseed oil is added from
time to time. The mass may also be colored
by kneading in any color that may be desired.
It may be pressed iuto shapes, and used for
the production of bas-reliefs und other figures,
or be worked by band into models, keeping
the mass warm dun ng the process. When it
cools and dries, which takes place in a few
Lours, it becomes as hard as stone.
TUK Si' MM KB IN M IKNKSOTA. Tl6 WiuonB,
esota) Republican of the 7th iust. says,
-rCury has been for some days at
-ecs iu ine inaue.
A Scabkd Afhtca!. The brig Flora, Cap.
tain Yates, of New Castle, Maine, arrived on
Monday from Dix Cove, (West Coast of
A iricA,) May ZU, bringing among her crew
native Krooman, who had been taken on
board at Dix Cove, as a foremast hand. The
fears of this native African hud been excited
ou the passage by the sailors, who. gave him
to understand that he would bo sold as a slave
when he reached the white mail's country.
When tho vessel hauled iuto the Alluutio
dock, a monkey on board attracted a curious
crowd, but was forgotten soon by the'auperi
or attractions of the African, with a pair of
huge ivory bracelets nponhis wrists, seeing
so many white and strange faces ho became
alarmed, and running into the forecastle
threw off all his clothes except a blue jumper,
and then sprung into tho rigging, and with
the agility of a monkey ran np to the fore
royal yard, where he perched himself, and by
his manner bid uetianco to all white loins.
A naked African in such a position soon drew
a large throug of spectators, the mate tried
every moans to induce hin to come down, but
without euect I to Uio mates commuuds be
would make but one reply, me dies, me dies,"
and by his gestures intimating that hn would
cut his throat before he would betaken He
remained ou the yard for about three hours,
the excited crowd hooting, yelling and throw
ing stones at the poor creature, to increase
liis a alarm or course. He finally told the
mate ho would come dowu if ''w hite man go'
way," or ''Cap'u como."
The vessel was haultd away from the dock
to gut rid of tho mob, but ut length threo
'bumpers," or Longshoremen, went on board,
and in delienco of the mate's remonstrances
climbed the rigging to force the Krooman
down. Their elforts to catch him, however
were wholly in vuiu ; ho ran from one yard
arm to another and sprang about among the
lifts and braces like a cut, defying nil ultempts
to reach liim. At one time lie dropped from
thu outer end of the royul yurdnrni uiidcaught
the top-gullunt lift, ulijrhliojr safely upon thu
yard below. These wretches, finding ho was
loo spry for tlicm aloft, then descended to the
deck, und pushing the mate aside seized the
I. ........ .... 1 l.l. ..
top gallant braces and begun to flack up and
swing the yard back aud forth in the most
violent manner, tho negro clinching with
might and main to the yard und fill, the
crowd on tho dock the meantime yelling like
fiends und awaiting to see him throw n from
tho yard. The police were culled, but could
not or would not disperse the rowdh-.
At last, worn out by his exertions to save
his life, ns a sudden jei It of the braces was
given by tho scoundrels on duck, the poor
fellow was thrown from the yard, and striking
the bruccs fell into the water, a distance of
seventy or eighty feet. He barely escaped
Iho rail of Ihu vessel ill his descent ; had he
struck, it, or fallen on the deck, he would
have been killed instantly. Some boatmen
now attempted to rescuu him from ihu wuter,
but he dove as quick us a flush, and swim
ming under wuter, aud can.o up a li ng dis
tance off. They pursued him, however, und
seizing him by the ivory rings ou his wrists,
eudeuved to get him into the boat but he re
sisted with all his might, und cried out, "Me
diu 1 Me die 1" He was finally got ou board
and to satisfy him that their motives were
frieudly, one of the boatmen pulled of his
shirt uud pantaloons and put them upou him.
This immediately quieted his leurs, uud be
surrendered himself lo his uew friends, who
to escape the mob, rowed him up the cutter
Washington, where he was received and cured
for by Limit. Kellum. Ilea's called J ohnDu
vis, uud mude our reporter understand thut he
came from Ulcutaboo-taboo ; thut ho hud
been two mouths und a hulfuii bourd the brig,
and had not been paid his wages. (Japt.

The 8unbury and Erie Railroad Company
address yea as a party who ari, from loral In
terests, deeply concerned in the completion of
their Railroad.
You are. I understand, a proprietor o1-land
within a few miloa f their track, which land
will, in the natural course of events, be greatly
enhanced in value from the time this road la
built, and hence the earliar that event takes place
the Conner your intermit are aubrerved.
Although ao deeply interested in the suecen
of this Knilroad, the owueia of property have, ao
far, given the Company but little aid, but have
left it to struggle against adverse circumstances,
oithcr upon Iho hope that olhen would secure to
them the results looked for, or perhaps appalled
by the magni lude of the uadertuking.
'I'll expectation that the road will lie built
without thn aid of the landholders, has so far di
minished by events as they have been developed,
as to induce the managers to make this effort to
conrentralo upon it the influence of such propri
etors as will lie the most directly benefited.
The fuel, now well established, thatllinse com
panies who have it in their power to offer a land
basin in addition to tho ordinary credit accorded
to railroad enterprises, find yo diHicutlv in ac
complishing their works, has encouraged the
managers in this attempt, which has been com
municatcd to several persons, and bus met with
great favor.
Tho proposition now made in based upon a
mutual advantage ( as by the completion of the
road, the market value will lw incrr.ire I'in a very
rapid ratio, it is lor the ink-rest of the owners to
part with a portion of their lands in order to re
curs a large profit on the remainder.
Without entering into details, which must bo
arranged to tho satisfaction of both parties, and
a surely given that the ohject will he arcnm nich
ed, I slate the plan generally. Thut the owners
ol Innd in the vicinity of Iho Knihoad shall sell
at fair rales of present value ono-lmlf their
tract, to he divided fairly as to qunlily, taking
pay therefor iu the htock of the Cumpauv. reser
ving the other half for their own future prulit
the purpose being I offer the half parcbased, s
a'basis upon which to obtain tlis funds build
the roud.
It is desirable, therefore, as a preliminary, la
know your views. And I therefore request your
early reply hi it he yen or nay.
it you think lnvorah e. I wi l hnnk von to st itu
Ihelocaticu of of your lands a general deserin-
of them, and at what rate you would be willing
to part with the hall to the Company. Yon may
if the plan succeeds, expect dividsnds on your
Mock sa soon as the road is in action through
your vicinity. The remainder which is left in
your hands will rise in value so soon a the com
pletion of the work becomes in public estimation
a fixed fact, that vou will soon realize from
the sale of your half far more than vou can now
obiuin fur the wholo leaving jour slock as addi
tionel profit.
1 invito perfect frankness in vour communica
tion, as no advantage will he aken- for the plan
will only he ca rried out in case sufficient land is
lendrred, ns added to our other means, will effect
the object aimed at.
