Bala •, to all cases of admiralty and maritime
jurisdiction ; !to controversies to which the
ITattited States shall be a party ; to contra-
Tersieb betWe'en two or more states; between
state and of another state ; between
citizens of different states ; between citizens
of the same state claiming land under grants
of different states, and betwen a state or the
citizens thereof and foreign states, citizens or
subjects." 'Mere the judicial power of the
United states i de expressly set forth and defined
aid the act'of September 24th, 1789, estab
lislang the ju!dicial courts of the United states
in conferring upon the federal courts juris
diction over cases originating in state tribu
nals, is careful to confine them to the classes
enumerated in the above recited clause of the
Constitution: This section of the bill un
doubtedly comprehends cases and authorizes
the exercise Of powers that are not by the con
stitution within the jurisdiction of the courts
of the United States. To transfer them to those
courts wouid.ba an exercise of authority well
calculated to excite distrust and alarm on the
part of all the states, for the bill applies alike
to all of them, as well to those that have not
been engaged in rebellion. It may be assumed
that this authority is incident to the power
granted to' Congress by the Constitution, as
recently ananded, to enforce by appropriate
legislation the prticlo declaring that neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a
punishment far crime, whereof the party shall
'Lave heen duly convicted, shall exist within
the United States, or any place subject to their .
jurisdiction.iT It cannot, however, be justly
Maimed that, with a view to the enforcement
of this article of the Constitution, there' is at
present any necessity for thr - exercise of ill the
powers wiliCh this bill cotters. Slavery has
been abolished. and at preient nowhere exists
within thejtivisdiction of the United States,nor
has there lieeu,' nor is it „likely there will be
any attempt; to revive it by the people of any
state. If, Liewever, any such attempt shall' be
made, it will then become ,the duty of the
general government to exercise any and all
incidental powers necessary and proper to
maintain inviolate this great law of freedom.
The fOurth section of the bill provides that
officers andgents of the Freedmen's Bureau
shall be em powered to make arrests, and also
that other officers may be specially commis
sioned for that purpose by the President of
the United States, It also authorizes Circhit
Courts of the United States and the. Superior
Courts of the territories to appoint without
limitation commissioners, who- are to be
charged with the performance of guasijudicial
duties. 1
The fifth section empowers the commissioners!
so to be selected by the court to appoint, in
writing one or more suitable persons, from
time to tinte, to execute warrants , and other
,processes desirable by the bill. These numer
'uus official! agents are made to constitute is
sort of police in addition to the military, and ,
are authorized to summon a posse comicatus,;
and even to call to their aid such portions oil
the land and naval forces of the United States
or of the Militia "as may be necessary to the
performanCe of the duty with which they are
charged." ',This extraordinary power is to be
conferred ' upon agents irresponsible to the
government and to the people, to whose num
ber
the disdretiou (of the commissioners is the
only limitand in whose hands such authority'
might bp made a terrible engine' of wrong,
Oppression) and fraud. The general statutes 1
regulating the land and naval forces of the )
United States, the militia, and the execution
of the laws,are believed to be adequate for any
imergencY which can occur Irk time of peace.
If it should prove otherwise, Congress can at
any time amend those laws in such a manner
as, while subserving the public welfaremot to
jeopard the rights, interests and liberties of
the people.
The seventh election provides that a fee of
tan dollars shall he paid to each commissioner
in every ease brought beforehim and a fee of
il t
five dollareeto his deputy or epaties for each
person he or they may arrest and take before
any such'eommissioner, Wit such other fees'
as-may be ; deemed reasormb e by such corn-
missioner 'in general for performingsuch other
duties as may be required in the premises. All
these fees' are to be paid out of the Treasarj ,
of the United States, whed+ there is a con
viction permit, but in case of conviction they )
are to be recovered from the defendant. It
seems to me that under the I:lfluence of such
temptations bad men might con7eit any law,
however beneficial, into an :nstrument of per
,
secntion end fraud.
By the !eighth section of the bill the United
States conrts, whieh sit only' in one place for
white citizens, must migrate with the Mar
shal and !District Attorney' and necessarily
with the c l lerk , (alttiough he is not mentioned)
to any prOt of the district, iron the order - of
the President; and there hold a court for the.
purpose cif the more speedy arrest and trial of
persons charged with a, violation of this act ;
and ther4 the judge and the officers of the
court must remain upon the order of the
President for the time therein designated.
- The ninth section authorizes the President,
or such persons as he may empower for that
purpose, to employ such park of the mitiria,as
shall be necessary to prevent the violation and
' enforce the due execution of this act. ) This
- language seems to imply a permanent military
force, that is to be always on hand, whose
only business is to be the enforcement of this
measure over the vast region where it is in
tended to operate. ,
I do not propose to consider the policy of
this bill.] to me, the details of the bill are
fraught with evil. The white race and black
. race of the South have hitherto lived together
under. the relation of master and slave—cap-
ital owning' abor. Now that relation is changed 1
and as teownership,' capital and labor are
divorcedl .l They stand now each ruastrT of,
its Li, this new relation ; one being necei.
nary to tine other, there will be a new adjust=
meat., wkielt both are deeply interested in
making liitemonius. each has equal power in
settling the terms, and, if left to the laws
that regidate capital and labor, it is confi
dently believed that they will 'satisfactorily
work out the problem. 'Capital, it is true,has
more intelligence ;' but labor is never so ig
norant as not to understand its own interests
mot to know its own value,and,not to see that
capital Must pay that value. This bill frus- '
trates this adjustment. It intervenes between
"capital and labor, and attempts to settle
cpiestioris of political economy, through the
agency Of numerous officials, whose interest it
will be - Ito ferment discord between , -the two
races ; for ars the breach widens their employ
ment will continue, and when it is is closed
their occupation will terminate. In all our
bistorPin all our experience as' people living
under federal and state law, no such system
as that contemplated by the details of this bill
has ever before been ,pro Posed or adopted.—
They establish for the security of the colored
race safeguards which go infinitely beyond
. sly thitt the general government has ever
provideid for the white race. In fact, the
distinction -of race and color is by the bill
made to'operate in favor of the colored and
. nail:estithe white race. They interfere with
) the muiaicipal legislation of the states; with
relations existing exclusively between a state
and itarcitizens, or between inhabitants of the
some state; an absorption and assumption of
sower by the general government, which, if
arqedeaced in, must sap and destroy our fed
erative system of limited , powers, and. break
down the barriers which preserve the rights of!
the states. It is another step or rather stride
toward, centralization, and the Consentration
of all legislative powers in the national gov
ernment. The tendency of the hill must be to
resuscitate the spirit ofrebellio&and to arrest
the progress of those int3uences' which are
more closOy drawing around the states the
bond of union and peace.
lamdated predecessor,in hishreelaination
on the Ise of January', 3863, ordered' and de
clared that all persons held as slaves within
certain states and 'parts of states therein des •
ignated, were thenceforward should be free';
and further, that the executive government of
the United States, including thrirailitary and l
naval authorities thereof,would recognise and
maintain the freedom of such persons. This
guaranty has been rendered especiillY obli
gatory and sacred by the ammadmeht of the
Constitution abolishing slavery through Out
the United States. I therefore fullytecogriise
the obligation to pretect and defend'Oat class'
of our people whenever and wherever it shall
become necesSsry, and toithe full extent com
patible with the ConstitUtiort of the United
States. Entertaining these sentimeats,it only
'remains for'me to say that I Will cheerfully
co-operate with Congress in any measure that
may ; be necessary for, the preservation of the
civil rights of the freedmen, aswell'as those
of all otner classes of persons throughout the
tErniied States,by judicial process,under equal
and impartial laws,. or conformably 'with the
provisions of the federal Constitution.
I nowireturn the bill to. the Senate, and re
gret that in considering the bills and joint
resolutions, forty-two in number, which have
been thus far submitted for myapproval,l am
compelld to withheld my assent from a second
measure that has receivedthe sanctitm of both

An Old Minister Sold.
We have pii i ilished a good many sad sto
ries of the sufferings of poor old mini Cm
lately. But here is one that puts out of .ight
all others tha t we ever heard. cf. A sub
scriber ofl moo than forty years standing,
brings to us a letter from a friend detailing
the extraordinary facts, and vouches for their
literal truth, in every particular :
I
"There is an eld initister in Charleston,
Penn., near W i ellshoro', who has ain't:ye borne
an excellent character, aryl has beien a hard
working, goo i Baptist preacher. Two years
since, be Was fod in his room, sick and des
titute. The friends for whom her had spent
his strength kindly put him in the Poor-house,
or rather whattakes the place ofdPoor
house. The town pays his boarding to who
ever will hoard him the cheapest 1 Ile is con
sequently put up at auction, 'and struck off to
the Idwestlbidder !I This spring the Charles
ton people thought they bad done enough
for him, and that he should be put upon an
adjoining township where be had sometimes
preached in fornier years. So they brought
the matter to Wdllsboro', and had a law-suit
over the Poor, out mad, but were obliged to
keep him after all. I was very much shocked
to find that there was such an instance as
this in the world, but it is all true. Ur.
attended the law-suit." i
Theie4we hope ever to hear anything
worse ,than thiS,' of the treatment of poor old
ministers. Probably, we shall have an ex
planation to the effect that the old man was
not a regularly ordained minister: perhaps
he '.‘took up" preaching and had a trade
that he worked at:besides. But he seems to
have been regarded as the minister, not of
one parish only, but of another where he had
labored two years. And now in. his old age
and poverty be is sold out to the man who
will board hiM the; cheapest ! ' And this is
our Christianity !!—:.2V - . Y. 'ObserLyr.

a word or syllable had been chan'ged or omit

Death of lion. Dan'i S. Dickinson.
We regret, to be compelled to announce the
decease of the. Hon. •Daniel S. Dickenson, U.
S. District Attorney for this District, which
occurred last evening, at the residence of his
Samuel J. Courtney, esq., of this
city.
Mr. Dickinson was taken sick on Monday
afternoon, having been engaged during the
day in the trial of the case of the steamship
Meteor. Nothing alarming in his symptoms
appeared TAU yesterday morning about 11
o'clock when they became serious. When his
sort-inrlaW, Mr. Courtney left his house yes
terday morning at 9 &clock, Mr. Dickinson
was up shaving. He told him that he had
ordered bin breakfait and felt much better,
saying, in his jocular way, to Mr. Courtney,
"You can run the office to-day J shall he all
right to morrow." But he gradually grew
worse until 8:30 o'clock in the l evening, when
died. His disease was strangulated hernia.
He leaves a widow and two daughters. He
had always enjoyed excellent health,and was
hardly ever sick in his life except last Summer
when he was attacked with typhoid fever.—
Mr. D. was born in Goshen,Uonnecticut,Sept.
11, 1800, , andj was consequently nearly 66
years of age. When hi was six years of age,
the famili removed tojNew York, and settled
in the valley of the Chenango. He was ad
mitted to the bar in ChenangoCounty in 1826,
and ten years later was chosen a member of
the State Senate from the Sixth District. He
was then tin ardent member of the Democratic
party, and continued in the service of the
state four;years. He was elected LieutenantL
Governor;in 1842, and in December 1844 was
appointed United States Senator, which seat
he continued to hold until March, pB5l. He
shortly afterward retired to his rural home at
Binghamton,and devoted himself to the prac

Nuts for Whiskey Men to Crack.
—Frank Leslie's newspaper says that tone
fifths of all the clime committed in New York
is the result of Whiskey.
—The Clerk of the Court of Quarter, See
along, of Lycoming counts, advertises 77 ap
plications for license to sell liquor in that
county. There are not, perhaps, half this
Timber of school bonies, or churches in the
same county, and the probability is tbiht if
these licenses are all granted, the disposition,
to support religious and educational institu
tions there will be progressively diminished
in the future.
—At a second class hotel in Frankfort, Ky.,
a few days since, a little girl entered the bar
room, and in pitiful tones, toad the bar keeper
that' ber mother had sent her there to get
eight cents. "Eight cents 7" said the bar
keeper. `"Yes sir.". "What does your mother
want of eight cents? J don't owe her any
thing." "Well,"1 said the child, "father
spends all i.i;3 money here for rum,' and we
'have had nothing to eat to-day. Mother
*ants to buy a loaf of bread." A loafer sug
gested to the bar keeper to kick the brat out.
"No," said the bar keeper, "I'll give her
mother the money; and if her father comes
back again, I'll kick him out." Such}a cir
cumstance never happened before, and may
never happen again. Humanity owes that
bar keeper a vote of thanks.
No Licenses In Potter t
We congratulate the people upon the pas
sage of the following Bill, it has been ap
proved by the Governor and is now the law.
It takes, the whiskey interest out of the can
vas for Judges this fall, as it takes thegrant
ing of licenses out of their power. It is only
reasonable to expect that this'will meet with
the hearty. !approval of the great Majority
from the fact that they have for many years
back refused to allow of licenses being granted
in this county. Mr. Mann deserves and will
receive the lasting gratitude of all good peo
ple for thus setting at rest one "bone of con
tention."
Sccrios 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and'
House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania in General :Assembly met and it is
hereby enacted by theauthority of the same, That
from and alser the passage of this net no li
cense shall be granted to any person to sell
vinous, spiritous, malt, or brewed ,liquors'

SenMor Trumbull's Speech,
1 We pribt elsewhere the able and conclusive
speech in defence of-the Civil Rights bill, and
in opposition to the President's, veto deliv
ered in the Senate.
The President's objection that some of the
features of this bill were unconstitnticnal and
without precedent in our legislation; caused
many per Sons to hesitate in giving their con,
sent to it', because it was supposed, and in.
deed hinted in the despatches from Wiishing
ton, that! the 'President: had availed himself
of the advicti of eminent lawyers-Uvrhose
I ,
names rumor did not give,howeve—npon
this point.
But Senator. Trumbull, who is himself an
eminent jusist, for five years Justice of the
Supreme Court of Illinois, and in the Senate
of the United States chairman of the Judici
ary Committee, has, it seems to us, completely
answered this as well as other points of the
President's bjections.
He showed by a decision of Chief-Justice
Marshall that a citizen of the United States
is a citizen of hny individual state. He showed
by precedents in our history that naturaliza
tion need net be by individuals,' but may he
"collective" as when allthe Whites of Texas
or Floriday,. or Louisiana,were made citizens.
He argued that states are represented in
either house of Congress and through their
legislatures; and that Congress must therefore
asJertain whether these legislatures are loyal.
He quoted the President against himself :
contrastinglpassages itt his best considered
4eeches while senator, with big present po
sition. He showed further that the President
had done, without authority, in the South,
precisely what this bill proposes to do bylaw;
and demonstrated that his course in the South
was a proof of the necessity and wisdom of
the bill.
