The following decision possesses interest to
many of our readers. Wo clip it from the
Greenville Mountaineer's account of the pro
ceedings of tho United States District Court,
at that place on tho 22ud ult:
Thomas R. Agncw, Assignee, vs. Simpson
Bobo. This was au action on a note given for
the* purchase, mohoy of a negro slave sold by
Mrs. Wofford to tho Defendant in 1858, and,
warranted by her at that time to bp sound and
a slave for life. Note for 81000, interest an
nually, due in 1860, was assigned to Plaintiff.
Tho defense relied upon was a failure of
consideration In that the negro, warranted to
be a slave for life, is still alive, but had been
made free." And also upon payment?the debt
iboing sequestered by the Government of the Con
federate States asthe property of an alien enemy,
was paid undor compulsion of that Govern
ment, while at war with the United States,
lion. B. F. Perry appeared for the Plaintiff.
Tho defense was conducted by Messrs. J. P.
Reed and JJobo. Tbc case was referred to a
jury and ably aud fully argued by the counsel
on both sides.
In his charge, tho Judge said, substantially :
Tho amount is small; tho principle, of over
whelming importance, I should gladly have
escaped from tho consideration of this case.
Tho settlement of the ju?stion, however it bo
settled, will carry poverty home to some one.
Orest investments lie in bond;; and nutcs triven
for the purchase money of negroes. In these,
womeu and children have staked their all.
The question is who shall hour the loss '{ Pov
orty and hardship must come. Iu my opinion
the hardship must bo born by those" why bad
tho misfortuno to bo owners.. It docs not come
within the provinco of this Court to adjust and
oqualizc the burdens of the war. That office,
tantas componere, belongs to other than a judi
cial tribunal.
Abolition grew out of the war?the position
of these Southern States in the war they waged
against tho Government. Negroes were em
ployed in many of the essential elements of the
war; they created subsistence for the armies,
ejected fortifications, and, in fact, constituted (lie
vndustrin) basis of the great conflict. The
abolition of-slavery thus bocamo^a military ne
cessity?emancipation an iiiovitoblo moral ro
sult of tho war. Thcso States could not bo
recognized until they should recoghizo what
the war Had effected.
It was couipotcnt for tho United States to
deal with slaves just as with other personal
property. The owner must suffer. Who suf
fered when mules or horses were taken ? or
cotton burnt or lifted, or ships captured at sea?
Who, but tho owner of suoh property ? Hut
tho laws of property, regulating tho rolatiou
ship of debtor aud creditor, in tho matter of
the mules, ships or eotton, wcro not abrogated.
Debts or balances duo on tho purchase of such
mules, ships or cottou, wcro not cancelled.
The debtors were not released. Their obliga
tions remain' in force at this day. The seller
uevor made a guarantee against the action of
war. Take the case of land. A. owns a fee
simple. Ho soils and convoys tho title ho got,
placing the purchaser in possession of all the
incidents of ownership with which he himself
had been invested. If tho State, in tho exor
cise of its right of cmincut domain, should bike
the fee for public uses, the seller makes no
guarantee against tho State j ho is not liable
for acts of the State or against confiscation of |
the United States. In this case, the ground
of defense, failure of consideration, docs not
therefore appear to be made out; the warranty
was in every view good at the time it was given;
its subsequeut failure was due to causes for
which the seller of tho negro was in no wise
responsible.
Tho other ground of defense, payment by
compulsion under the Sequestration Law of
the Confederate Government, is equally un
tenable. That Government never had a legal
existence, and payment of the debt under its
regulations was therefore void.
Under these instructions the jury retired,
and soon returned with the following verdict:
"Wc find for the Plaintiff sixteen hundred and
fifty-one dollars aud five cents," the full amount,
with interest.

Ctui Militia Officers Register?
? *W
Wo unhesitatingly nnswor, Yea. "^Ple only
shadow of an argument against their enjoy
ment of the privilege, is found in their connec
tion with the Patrol System, which prevailed
in the rural Districts in the olden time; aud
this argument falls through upon a moment's
reflection. The last Act of Congress on the
subject uses the words, "administration or a
general law of tho Slate." But the Patrol
Law was not a general law of the State. It
was local and particular in its effects and ope
ration, us far as militia officers wove concerned.
It was only iu sections outside of towns, vil
lages and cities, that militia officers had any
thing whatever to do with the Patrols. All
municipal corporations controlled their own
pj.lice systODjj in their own way. So that, just
in the same jnanncr as any law, which applied
only to the cities and tojvnj? in the State, would
be called "particular" aud -local f so likewise
any law that pertained only to ngricuUuYtlJ
sections must be called "local'' also, and not
"'general." Why, there is one entire District
of the State,?the District of Charleston,?
where the Patrol Law had no force at ?11 iu
this particular.
Wc will not at this time enter into n discus
sion of tho distinction between civil aud mili
Ir. -y officers. We would only refer to another
reason why a militia officer should not be de
prived of the privilege of registration. There
wcro, in our State, officers of Volunteer Com
panies, and officers of Beat Companies. Now.
is it to be supposed that a Volunteer Captain
in the County shall be privileged, and thu Cap
tain of a Heat Company, under a commission,
word for word, like tho other, shall be disfran
chised? Again, shall the Captain of Heat Com
pany No. 1, in the Kith Regiment, (in tho
city) be entitled to registor, and the Captain of
Heat Company No, I, in the 14th Regiment bo
excluded from the lists. Such a rule would
not work fairly at all, and shows still more
forcibly that the patrol law was not a general
law.
Again, let us, fur tho sake of argument, say
that f ho JlfttroJ hiw was such a general law, as
produces disfrnnchisomcnl: then not only
militia O?'cers but militia men arc disfranchised.
For the last reconstruction act says that those
who exorcised certain offices are disfranchised,
whether they have taken tho oath, or not. it
follows, therefore, that if a militia Captain or
Lieutenant is disfranchised by his connection
with the Patrol, then every one who has been
Captain of a Patrol Squad would bo also; for
he was a police rdlicor |(? ,).,. (j,, ,. j,,.;,,,, .,?,]
tili? would take in pearly every man in the
country, outsido of tho municipal corporations:
for nearly every one has been Captaid of such
a squad in his turn. Hut this irf* manifestly!
absurd; and yet it is basod on exactly the
same argument, that is used to exclude militia
officers. 3*'
The truth is, that militia officers arc not dis
franchised1 at all, on that account. Tho idea
is preposterous. Tho matter was determined
at the very beginning of registration, under
the very eyes of that departing hero, tho Com
manding General of the Second Military Dis
trict, as we lind by the Charleston Mercury,
which has been at much pains to bring before
the public everything of interest in this con
nection.
Our friends, therefore, who have beenmili
tia officers before the war, have only to go be
fore the respective Hoards, aud say, "We were
militia officers before the war- but wo wish to
bo registered as vottrs ;" and wo pay but a just
compliment to tho intclligcuco of the Regis
trars in this District, when we say that wo are
confident they will not be rejected.
Returns from Different Districts.
We cannot vouch for the accuracy of every
portion of this list; but we have carefully col
lected the information therein condensed, from,
tho various Exchanges we receive from tho
different parts of tho State. The numbers
above '1000 are generally full returns: the
others arc but results of the first days of Reg
istration. The indications are that there will
be. white majorities in nine Districts, and
black majorities in twenty two. The second
j round, however, may produce many changes hw
favor of the whites. We cannot tell until
further ret urns.

AUGUST 20.?Grant issued tie* order re
lieving Sheridan, and assigning Hancock to the
command of tho Fifth Military District, and
of the department composed of the States oi"
Louisiana and Texas.
During the late contest the President placed
himself squarely on his constitutional right,
and duly carried his points. It is suggested
that the following letter in which Thad. Stev
ens acknowledges that the President still re
tains the power of removal which Gen. Grant
seemed inclined to deny, had much to do with
the General's retrograde movement:
Lancaster, Pa., August 20. 1807.?Colonel
Samuel Schoch, Columbia, Pa:?Dear Sir:
Von are right in supposing that Congress made
mistakes, ns is the inevitable, lot of man, but
you mistake in supposing that there i.-- any law
to Prohibit the removal of District Couunp.iiu
ck' without tJie eonsent of tho Senate. Soon
after the commeno.cnicn't pf the last session of
Congress 1 reported a fc?l -Pc<>m t!ie committee
of tho House of Representi,which con
tained a provision prohibiting removal without
the consent of the Senate. It Passed the
House and was sent to the Senate. 'i'l'o .Sen
ate struck it out" and returned it to the Iloi^C,
who refused to concur iu the amendment. Tho
result was a committee of conference, where an
animated contest ensued.
There were several other questions in con
troversy betwceti the houses, which the House
offered to yield if this could be granted. The
Senate persistently refused,declaring that they
would sooner lose the bill. As that would
frustrate all our legislation, it could not be til
lowed. Tho House yielded, with a warning of
the evils it would inflict upon the country.
Some of the members of the Senate sc.?med t.>
doubt their power under the constitution,
which they had just repudiated, and outside of
which ail agreed that we were noting, else our
whole work of reconstruction was usurpation ;
or perhaps they had n desire to bo thought
gravely conservative and magnanimous.
These ideas seemed to control the action of
seine half dozen Senator.-', who preferred trust
ing the ['resident. My dear Colonel, a few
Senators of great ability, undoubted patriotism
a-.d purity, have become so saturated with
what they were pleased to call "conservatism"
( whose meaning 1 con less I am unable to un
derstand,) that 1 fear they will forget the mon
ster f-bat Was slain in 1770. and again in 1801,

attack upon its framework its by gradually for
getting the vital principles of the Declaration
of Independence.
^ Strike out one of the living sparks which
give life, to our Goddess ol Liberty, and the
mysterious and intense heat whose welding
fires, nearly a century ago, and at present are
fusing principles of freedom und reducing des
potism to cinders, will gradually cool, until the
most conservative despot could thrust his sword
into it without afflicting its temper I have
said above lha,t I did uot know ?In- meanint! of
the word "conservatism." I have since seen
tho report or' a speech said to have boon made
by-uu Ohio Senator at Canton, Ohio, which, if
it bo truly reported and is to bo considered a
definition of that doctrine, then it to nie is
very alarming?worse than coppcrhcudistn. It
is legislation without authority, and reconstruc
tion by usurpation.
I am, very respectfully.
Your obedient servant;
