The Boot on the Other Leg.
It has been a favorite c ) lperge et the
I Black Republican papersind
ens, that the Supreme Court, to 4its fa-
mous Dred Scott decision, daeiardd tbai
" negro°, possessed cuteighle
men were bound to respect." Now, '
while ft is notorious that the aforesaid
Court made no such assertion, in the
sense imputed to it; still, if it dil it
has barn more than sustained by a re-'
(•-rit decision by the Supremo Court of
theStftte ot 111 ich fgan, composed of four
very ultra Republicans. The facts of
tits case arc about like this, after read- ,
ing which our readers will doubtless
coat:ludo with us, that '4 the boot is now .
on the other leg." .T.ast year while a
steamer was ing at the wharf in De
troit, a adore d loan stepped up to the
captain's oLlr.e, and %ranted to purchase
a ticket 14 hit+ would entitle him to a
Massage 'n the whin. The clerk of the
boat refused to sell him such a ticket.
Ha was offered a deekpaseenger ticket,
` and •w:l4 toll that by the'regulations of
the boat uegruuo were not permitted to
take passage in the cabin. The nogro's
t eams is William' 11. Day, and he
; brought a suit against the owners of
the boat for damages in not permitting
bite te.enaoy a passage with white pos.
iota. '.Fist Circuit Wart denied the
Ilklidity of pay's claim, when he was
induced by the Black “Repubileans"
and Abolitionists to remove the case to
the Supreme Court of the *Aso, which
Court deliberately affirmed the judg
ment of the Court below, with the
necessary cos ts. The Detroit Free Press,
in commenting upon this ease, concludes
with the following pertinent and op.
t portue• renutrhs:
When the Supreme Coors or the 'Crated
States, is the fatness case of Dred Scott, pre
oupneed the opinion that qpgroes were not
citifeas of the Cuited States under the Feder
al Constitution and laws, we hare • distinct
recollection that the Whole' Black "Republican"
press, from the eastern bonadaries 4f Maine to
the western bongdaries of Illinois and (.thin,
wai hotrorrstrock aqd overwhelmed with the
most yirthons indignation. It declared the
decision to be barbarous, and the rocabulary
must hays beep searched for epithets suited to
be hurled at the tribunal which had laid down
nisch monstrous doctrine as law; and up to
this dny eTerr oceasign Cute been seised by
this Itluek " Republican" press and by the
luck "Republicau" orators, in Congress nod
001, to assail the decTslips of the Supreme
Court of the United States and to bring it in
to popular-disrepute.
We shall await With some interest and curs-
osity the treatment which the Black "Republi
can"i press and the Black " Republican' ora
-1 tort se ill deal out on this decision of the Su
preme Court of the State of Michigan ;—be
cans°, it the decision in the Dred Scott case
was barbarous, the decision iii; the William Li.
Day case is intensely barbaroes; if the doe
trino :aid down as law in the one case was
monstrous, that laid down as law le the other
ease is odious and scandalous. The Supreme
Court of the United States gimpy passed up
on the political Status of the negro according
to the Federal Constitution, and laws; the Shy
pretne Court of the Stitt* of Michigan has pass
ed upon his social status. The one Court de
cided that the negro, by the law, did not stand
opois a political equality with the whites; the
other court has decided that, if not by the
statute law, by the law of custom, he does not
stand upon a social equality with the whites.
The one court decided that he is politically
l en inferior being ; the other that he is morally
,an inferior being. The one excluded him from
the Federal courts; the other excludes him
from steamboat cabins and first.class railroad
care. The one dealt with him with respect to
Lis manhood. If the one degraded him as part
I and parcel of the body politic, the other has
' abased him and tainted him and shamed him
as part and parcel of social fabric.
! Let it not be supposed for a moment that wo
condemn this decision of the Supreme
Court of the State of Michigan. We donoL—
We shall sustain it, as we Lee sustained the
decision of the Supreme Court of the United
States. Both in ourjudgment ere eminedtly
light. Neither Court could make any other
decision ; or. if the Supreme Court of this State
had made any other decision, they would bapis
merited the derision and contempt of the
whole country. The fact which we wish to
bring prominently out in this whole connec
tion is, that the Supreme Court of the State of
Michigan is composed of four gentlemen ofsbe
Black "Repablicaa" party, and they hare bee*
compelled, when this question of niggers came
before them, to determine it upon common
sense principles and in contravention of the
professed priecipleit of the Black "Republican"
party. They hare been compelled to deter
mine it in accordance with the principles of
the Democratic party and of the Dred Scott
decision itself. They have been compelled to
acknowledge, and to write it upon their ender
lug records, that the negro is an inferior being,
though In so doing they hare kicked away the
platform upoa which they sought and walked
into office. They hare been compelled to go
fhrtber than the Dred Scott decision went.—
They bare been compelled pass upon the - negro
as a social being and to prononnce him degrad
ed. They hare been compelled to pronounce
their own political party hypocritical, dishon
est and foul.
We think the Dred Scott decision will stand
