Mr. Yonge, during the session of the Anglican Church, Congress, talked rather fa millari}- of a certain mysterious personage with whom "men of the cloth" are, theoreti? cally, at least, supposed to nave very little ac? quaintance. Mr. Yonge, we are told, boldly commenced by attributing all doubt and diffi? culty to the Dc v d, to whose rapid Intellectual progress during the last two thousand years he bore "personally bis explicit and courage? ous testimony."

Its argument is that the Pope, being the head of J the Church, has authority over the CouncU, and can therefore determine what points shall be treated by the assembled bishops, control the language of the definitions, and forbid dis? cussion upon points which he does not think proper to bring forward. That ls to say, he can confine the deliberations to a certain Hst of subjects-which is a very different thing from preventing any deliberation at all. -At the opening of the new Episcopal Church of" St. Ann's, in Brooklyn, Bishop Mc Rvaine, of Ohio, preached the sermon, and took occasion to attack the Ritualists in very lively style.

He thought there was much In the aspect of the times to coun? tenance that Idea. At any rate the Apostle's description applies, in an alarming degree, to the present generation, in various branches ol the visible'Church. The Bishop spoke of the Ritnallsts as men "who were fond of exhibit? ing an extravagant zeal for the whole ritual form of godliness, to enlarge it. to adorn lt, to invest it with a sentimental, mystical Imita? tion of spiritual life, with deep hidden mean? ings and mysterious sanctities, a vail of sym? bolism and a cloud of ceremony, under which the man may hide himself from himself, and Imagine he ls alive unto God and growing in in grace. Thus," he went on to say, "the mi? nute reinauguration of cast-ofi trappings of | ritualism which our reformers could not tole? rate-gorgeous sacerdotal vestments, full of j false doctrine in their symbolic meaning, the marchings, the banners, the crosses, the can? dles, the censers, and all those so-called im? posing inventions which are intended to teach the profane pretence of the reoffering of the sacrifice of Christ." -The poet Bryant counsels a young con? tributor to the Post as follows : " My young rle nd, I observe that you have used several French expressions in your article. I think if you will study the English language, that you will find it capable of expressing all the ideas yon may have. I have always found it so. and in all that I have written I do not re? call an instance where I was tempted to use a foreign word, but that, on searching, I found a better one In my own language." * ? THE YERGER CASE. THE DECISION OT THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT IN FUZZ. THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT SUS? TAINED. ARGUMENTS ON THE WRIT OF HA? BEAS CORPUS TO BR HEARD. The Washington papers bring us the full text of the opinion of Chief Justice Chase in the Yerger case. It does nothing more than affirm the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court to issue the writ prayed for-that of habeas corpus. When Yerger shall be brought before the court in obedience to this writ, the case will come up on its merits; and then the Reconstruction acts may be pronounced unconstitutional-and then, again, they may no< be. There ls abso? lutely nothing Jn the opinion whiqh either touches those acts or by implication even re? fers to them. Before the case thus comes up on its merits, Congress may oust tho Court of | Its jurisdiction, and leave Ur. Yerger in the hands ol his military murderers. The opinion reads as follows: Supreme Court of the Unite? States, December Term, 1868-No. IT (Original.)-In Ole matter of Kovcara M. Yerger, petition for habeas corpus and certiorari.-Opinion of the Court by Chief Justice Chase. STATEMENT OF THE CASE. Upon tbe prayer or the petitioner, addressed to the Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern District of Mississippi, a writ of habeas corpus was directed to certain military orncers holding the petitioner in custody, commanding them to produce his body and abide the Order of the Court. In obedience to this writ thc petitioner was brought into court by MaJor-G.-nerul R. S. Gran? ger, who made his return, in due form, certifying the cause of detention to be that the petitioner had been arrested, and was held for trial, upon a charge of murder by a military commission under the act of Congress of the 2a ot March, 1807, to provide for the more efficient government of the rcOcl St?tcs* ?Upon this return the petitioner was ordered into custody of the marshal, and the court pro? ceeded to hear argument. It was admitted that the petitioner was a private citizen of the State of Mississippi; that he was being tried by the raditary commission without a jury and without presentment or indictment by a grand jury: and that be was not and never had been connected with the army or navy of the United states, or with the militia in active service In time of war or Invasion. Upon this case the Circuit Court adjudged that the imprisonment of the petitioner was lawful, and passed an order that the writ of habeas cor? pus be dismissed, and that the prisoner bc re? manded to the custody of the military officer by whom he had been brought into court, to be held and detained for the purposes and to answer to the charge set forth in the return. To obtain the reversal of this order and relief from imprisonment, the petitioner now asks for a writ of certiorari to bring here for review thc pro? ceedings of the Circuit Court, and for a writ of habeas corpus to be issued, under the authority of this court, to the officer to whose custody he was remanded. ITS I UI'O KT ANCE. Upon the suggestion of the Attorney-General, made In view of thc Importance of the questions which wUl probably arise if the case ls brought to hearing, we have beard preliminary argument upon the Jurisdiction of the Court to issue the writ prayed for, and have carefully considered the reasonings which have been addressed to us. This argument, by the dlrecUon of thc Court, was confined to the single point of jurisdiction, and I am now to state the conclusions to which we have come. TBS QUESTION OF JURISDICTION. The general question of Jurisdiction in this case resolves itself necessarily into two narrower ques? tions: v 1. Has the Court jurisdiction, in a case like the present, to inquire into the cause of detention alleged to be unlawful, and to give relief. If the detention be found to be In fact unlawful, by the ] writ of habeas corpus, under the judiciary act of 178? f 2. If, under that act, the Caurt possessed the jurisdiction, has lt been taken away by the second section of the act of March 27, 1868, (15 U. a Statutes, 44,) repealing BO much of the act of Feb? ruary 6, 1867, (14 U. & Statutes, 85.) as authorizes appeals from Circuit Dourta to the Supreme Court r Neither of these questions is nov here. The first has, on several occasions, received very full consideration and very deliberate judgment. A cause so important as that which now In? vokes the action of tho Court seems, however, to justify a reconsideration of the grounds upon which Its jurisdiction has been bitherte main tamed. The great writ of habeas corpus bas been for centuries esteemed the best and only sufficient defence of personal freedom. MAB*A CHARTA. In England, after a long struggle, lt was firmly guaranteed by the famous habeas corpus act of I May 20, 1679, fr British Statutes at Large, 3 Hal-, lam Constitutional History, 19,) "for the better securing of the liberty or the subject," which, as Blackstone says, "ls frequently considered as another magna Charta." (8 Blackstone's Com? mentaries, 135.) It was brought to America by the colonists, and claimed as among the Immemorial rights des? cended to them from their ancestors. Naturally, therefore, when the Confederated Colonies became the United States, and the form? ation of a common government engaged their de? liberations in convention, this great writ found permanent sanction ia the Constitution. That sanction ls In these words: "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shah not be suspended unless when, In cases of j rebellion or Invasion, the public safety may re? quire lt." The terms of this provision necessarily imply Judicial action. In England all thc higher courts were open to applicants for the writ, and lt ls hardly supposable that under the new govern? ment, founded on more- liberal Ideas and princi? ples, any court would be, intentionally, closed to them. We find, accordingly, that thc First Congress under the Constitution, after defining by various sections of the act of September 24,1789, the Ju? risdiction of the District Courts, the Circuit Courts, and the Supreme Court in other cases, proceeded, in the 14th section, to enact, "That all the before mentioned courts of the United States shall have power to Issue writs of soire facias, habeas corpus, and all other writs not specially provided by statute which may be necessary for the exercise of their respective Jurisdictions and agreeable to the principles and usages of law." (1 U.S. Statutes,81.) In the same section it was further provided, "That cither of the Jus? tices of the Supreme Court, as well as the judges of thc District Court, shall have power to grant writs of habeas corpus for the purpose of au in? quiry into the cause of commitment, provided that writs of habeas corpus shall in no case ex? tend to prisoners in jail, unless they are lu custo? dy under or by color of the authority of the Unit? ed States, or are committed for trial before some court of the same, or are necessary to be brought into court to testify." That this Court is one of the courts to which thc power to issue writs of habeas corpus is expr?s* ly given by the terms of this sectiou, has never been questioned. It would have been, Indeed, a remarkable anomaly if this Court, ordained l>v the Constitution for the exercise, n> the United States, of the most important powers, in civil cases, or all the highest courts of England, had been denied, under a Constitution which abso? lutely prohibits the suspension of the writ, ex? cept underextraordinary exigencies, that power in cases or alleged unlawful restraint which the habeas co>-pus act or Charles II expressly declar? ed those courts to possess. APPELLATE AND ORIGINAL JCIIISPICTION. But the power vested In this Court is, in art im? portant particular, unlike that possessed bv the English courts. The Jurisdiction or this court, ls conferred by the Constitution, and is appellate; whereas that of the English courts, though de? clared and denned by statute, is derived from the common law, and is original. The judicial power of the United States extends to all cases in law and equity arising under thc Constitution, thc laws of the United states, aud treaties made under their authority, and to large classes of cases determined by the character of the parties or the nature of thc controversy. That part or this judicial power vested in this Court ls demied by thc Constitution kln these words: "In all coses affecting ambassadors, other pub? lic ministers, and consuls, and those in which a State shall be a party, the Supreme Court shall have original jurisdiction. In all the other cases before mentioned, the Supreme Court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions and under such regulations as the Congress shan make." ir the question were a new one lt would, per? haps, deserve inquiry whether Congress might not, under the power to make exceptions rrom this appellate Jurisdiction, extend the original jurisdiction to other cases than those expressly enumerated m the Constitution, and especially In view of the constitutional guarantee of the writ of habeas corpus to cases arising upon peU tlon for that writ. But in the ease of Marbury vs. Madison (1 Cr., 187J lt was determined, upon full consideration, that the power to issue writs of mamiamu. to this conrt by the thirteenth section judiciary act ls, nuder the Constitution, pellate jurisdiction, to bc exercised only revision o? judicial decisions. And thb ment has ever since been accepted as flxl construction of this part of the constitutioi It was pronounced- In 1803. In 180T th? construction was given to the provision fourteenth section relating to the writ of ; corpus, in thc case*of Honman and Swan (4 Cr., loo.) The power to Issue the writ had been pre\ exercised in Hamilton's case, 1795, (3 Cr and in Tjurford's case, 1806, In neither or cases does the distinction between appella original jurisdiction appear to have; been ms ! In the case of Bellman and Swartwout, ever, the point was brought distinctly befe court, the nature of the Jurisdiction was ct ly examined, and it was declared to be app The question then determined has nettlina drawn into controversy. DOCTRINE OF THE CONSTITUTION. The doctrine of the Constitution, aid < cases thus far, may be Bummed vp m tues* positions: , rf* 1. The original jurisdiction ot/nig court c be extended bj* Congress to an*Mer caaes those expressly de?ued by theT^Btltutlon. 2. The appellate Jurlsdictle%of >hla cour rered by the Constitution e#t*Ms to all oases within the judicial porMF, or the C StltCS B r 3. Tais appellate jurisdictions subject tc exceptions, and must beexeroaed under sn gulatloDH as Congress, la thcKcerclsc bf it cretion, has made or may seeafeto make. 4. Congress not only has St excepted or habeas corpus and manaWius from th: pellate jurisdiction, but has jfcpressly pro for the exercise of this juristJKtion by mea these writs. ' ,. fa We come, then, to ?onBlder the first great tion made in the case now before us. We shall assume, upon the authority of tl cisione referred to, what we should hold wei question now for the first time presented 1 that in a proper case this court, under the i 1789, and under all thc subsequent acts, g jurisdiction in cases of habeas corpus, mt the exercise or Its appellate powers revise tl cisione or inrerior courts of the United St and relieve from unlawful Imprisonment anti cd by them, except in cases within some ll: tion of the Jurisdiction or Congress. It remains to inn aire w nether t he case b us is a proper one for such Interpretation, within any such limitation ? In other words, this court inquire Into the lawfulness or di tion, and relieve from it, If found unlawful, t the detention complained of ls not by clxl thority under a commitment, made by an Int court for trial in a civil court, but hy military cers for trial before a military tribunal, arti examination Into the cause of detention by inrerior court resulting In an order reman the prisoner to custody ? It was insisted, la argument, that "to bril case within the appellate Jurisdiction of conrt In the sense requisite to enable it to ai the writ of habeas corpus, under the Judie act, lt is necessary that thc commitment sh appear to have been by a tribunal whose < slons are subject to revision by this court." This proposition seems to assert not only the decision to be revised upon habeas cot must bave been made by a court of the Un States subject to the ordinary appellate Jurti tion of this court, but that having been mad must have resulted in an order or commitmet civil authority, subject to the control of the o making it. JUDICIAL AUTHORITIES. The first branch of this proposition has cert ly some support lu Metzger's ease, (5 How., 1 In which it was held that an order of corni ment made by a district Judge at chambers c not be revised here by habeas corpus. This c as was observed by Mr. Justice Nelson lu Kali case, (14 How., 103.) stands alone; and lt i admit of question whether it can bc entirely conched with the proposition, which we reg as established upon principio and authority, t the appellate jurisdiction by habeas corpus tends to all cases of commitment by the judi authority of the United States not excepted fi it by Congress. But lt ls unnecessary to enter upon this lnryi here. The action which we are asked to rei was that of a tribunal whose decisions are s ject to revision by this court la ordinary moe We need consider, therefore, .only the sec branch of the proposition, namely, that the act of the iufcrlor court must have resulted lu a cc mitment for trial In a civil -court, and the In: ence drawn from lt that no relief can be had h by habeas corpus from Imprisonment under rn tary authority, to which the petitioner may hi bean remanded by such a court. This proposition, certainly, ls not supported authority. In Kaine's case all the judges, ex? one, asserted, directly or indirectly, the jurist tion of this court to give relief In a case wh the detention was by order of a United Sta commissioner. The lawfulness of the detent: had been examined by the Circuit Court for t Southern District of New York upon a writ of 1 be os corpus, and the court had dismissed 1 writ and remanded the prisoner to custody, this court relief was denied an the merits, but I jurisdiction was denied by one Judge only. A it is difficult to find any substantial ground up which jurisdiction in that ?ase can be affirm and denied in this. ' In Well's case, (18 Howard, 308,) the petition was confined In the penitentiary, under a se tence ot death, commuted by the President lntc sentence of Imprisonment for life. He obtalnee writ of habeas corpus from the Circuit Court the District of Columbia; was brought before t court, and waa remanded to custody. He th sued out a writ or habe?s corpus from this cou: and his casa was fully considered here. No c jectlon to the jurisdiction seems to hav? bei taken In argument, though there, as herc, lt w evident that the actual imprisonment at the tin of the petition for the writ was not under tl direction of the court by whose order the prlso er was remanded, but by a different and dlstlu authority. In this case of Wells, however, Mr. Justice Cu tis again dissented, aud on the point of Jurladl tion Mr. Justice Campbell concurred with hit The other Judges, though ali, except one, were . opinion that the relief asked munt be denlo agreed In maintaining the jurisdiction of tl coart. Judge Curtis, who regarded the queetlc as left undetermined In Ramo's case, admltte that tb? Jurisdiction was asserted In this, an stated the ground of Judgment affirming Jurii diction to be that, "aa the Circuit Court has ha the prisoner before r. and has remanded hin this court, by a writ of habeas corpus, may mi amine that decision, and see whether it bc erre neouaor not." Since this judgment waa pronounced the juris diction in cases similar to that now before th court has not hitherto been questioned. THE AROUMBNT CONSIDERED. We have carefully considered the argumen against it, made in this case, and are satlstle that the doctrine heretofore maintained ts sound The great and leading latent or the Constltu tion and the law must be kept constantly lu vlei upon the examination of every question of cou struction. That intent, in respect to the writ of habea corpun, ls manifest, lt ls, that every citizen ma' be protected by judicial action from nnlawrul liri prisonment. To this end, us has been shown, th? act or 1789 provided that every court of the Unitet States should have power to issue the writ. Th< Jurisdiction thus given by law to the Circuit auci District Courts ls original; that given by the Con stitution and the law to this court is appellate. Given in general terms, it must necessarily ex? tend to all cases to which the judlcal power of the United States extends, other than those expressly exceptedi Aa limited by thc act of 1789, lt did not extend to cases of imprisonment arter conviction under sentences of competent tribunals; nor to any prisoners in jail unless In custody und?r or by color of tho authority or tho United States; or committed for trial before some court or thc United States; or required to be brought into cburt to testiry. But this limitation has been gradually narrowed, and the benefits of the writ have been extended, first, In 1833, (4 U. S. Stat? tutes, 031.) to prisoners confined under any au? thority, whether State or National, ror any act done or omitted in pursuance or a law of the United States, or of any order, process, or decree of any judge or court ?r the United States; then, in 1S42, (5 U. S. Statutes, 539,) to prisoners being subjects or citizens or foreign States in custody under National or State authority for acts done or omitted by or under color or foreign authority, and alleged to be valid under the law or nations; and finally, iu iso7, (14 U. s. statutes, 385,) to all cases where any person may lie restrained of lib? erty lu violation ol' the Constitution or or any treaty or law or the United States. This brief .statement shows how the general spirit, and genius or our institutions has tended to thc widening and enlarging of the habeas corpus jurisdiction or the courts and judges or Hie United States; and this tendency, except in one recent instance, has been constant and uniform; aud lt is in the light or it that we must determine thc true meaning ol thc Constitution and the law in respect to the appellate jurisdiction or this court. We aro not at liberty to except rroiu it any cases nor plainly excepted by law, and wc think it sufficiently appears from what bas been said that no exception to this jurisdiction embraces such a case as that now before thc court. On the ?on trary, the case is one or those expressly declared not to be excepted from the general grant of jurisdiction, for it is a case or imprisonment al? leged to be unlawful, and to be under color of authority of the United States. lt seems to be a necessary consequence that If the appellate jurisdiction by habeas corpus ex tends to any case, it extends to this. It ls un? important In what custody the prisoner may be. ir it ls a custody to which he has been remanded by the order or an inferior court or tho United States. It ls proper to add that we are not aware of anything lu any act of Congress, except the act of 1868, which indicates any intention to with? hold appellate Jurisdiction la habeas corpus cases from this court, or to abridge the jurisdiction derived from the Constitution, and defined by th? act of 1789. We agree that Congress may withhold or abridge it, for lt is given subject to exception and regulation, By Congress, but it is too plain for argument that the denial to this court of appellate jurisdiction In this class of cases must greatly weaken the efficiency of the writ, deprive the citizen In many cases of its benefits, and seriously binder the establishment of that uniformity in decisions upon questions of personal rights which can only be attained through appellate Jurisdiction exercised upon de? cisions of courts or origma! Jurisdiction. In the particular class of cases of which that before the coilrt ls an example, where the custody to which the prisoner is remanded is that of some authori? ty other than that of the remanding court, it is evident that the Imprisoned citizen, however un? lawful his imprisonment may be in fact, ls wholly without remedy unless lt be found m the appellate jurisdiction of this court. These considerations forbid any' constructions giving to doubtful words the effect of withhold? ing or abridging this jurisdiction. They would strongly persuade against the denial of the juris? diction even were thc reasons for offering it less cogent than they are. We are obliged to hold, therefore, that in all cases where a Circuit Court of the United States has, in the exercise of its original Jurisdiction, caused a prisoner to be brought before lt, and has; after Inquiring into the cause of detention, remanded him to the custody from which he was taken, this court, in the exercise of its appellate Jurisdiction may, by the writ of habeas corpus, aided by the writ of certiorari, revise the decis? ion of the Circnit Court, and if lt be found unwar? ranted by law, relieve the prisoner from the un? lawful restraint to which he has been remanded. THE ACT OP 1868. I Thia conclusion brings us to thc Inquiry wheth? er the second section of the act of March 27, 1868, takes aw?y or affects the appellate jurisdiction of thin court under the Constitution and the acts of Congress prior to 1867. We have already expressed in the McCardle case an opinion that i: does. But the point was not carefully considered, and we have re-examin? ed lt. (7 Wall, 616.) The circumstances under which the act of 1868 was passed were peculiar. THE M'CARDXE CASK. On the 5th of February, 1807, Congress passed an act; to which reference has already been made, extending the original jurisdiction by habeas corpus of the district and circuit courts, and of thc several Judges of these courts, to all cases of restraint of liberty in violation of the Constitu? tion, treaties, or Taws of the United States. TrVis act authorized appeals to this court from Judg? ments of the Circuit Court, but did not repeal any previous act conferring Jurisdiction by habeas corpus, unless by implication. Under this act one McCardle, alleging unlawful restraint by military force, petitioned the Circuit Court for tte Southern District of Mississippi for the writ of habeas corpus. The writ was Issued and a re? turn was made. And. upon hearing, the court decided that the restraint was lawful, and re? manded him to custody. McCardle prayed an appeal, under thc act, to this court, which was allowed and perfected. A motion to dismiss the appeal was made here and denied. The case was then argued at the har, and, the argument h av- i lng been concluded, on the 9th or March, 1869, was taken under advisement by the court. While the cause was thus held, and before the court had time to consider the decision proper to be made, the repealing act under consideration was intro? duced into Congress. The act was carried through both House?, sent to the President, re? turned with his objections, repassed by the con? stitutional majority in each Douse, and became a law on the 27th of March, within eighteen days after thc conclusion of thc argument. The effect of the act was to oust the court of (ts Jurisdiction of the particular case then before lt on appeal, and it ls not to be doubted that such was thc effect intended. Xor will it be questioned that legislation of this character ls unusual and hardly to be Justified, except upon some Imperious public exigency. It was doubtless withia the constitutional dis? cretion of Congress to determine whether such an exigency existed; but it ls not to be presumed that an act passed under - such circumstances was in? tended to have any further effect than that plainly apparent from its terms. It ls quite clear that the words of the act reach not only all appeals pending, but all future ap? peals to tills court under the act of 1867; but they appear to be limited to appeals taken under that act. The words of thc repealing section are, "That so much of the act approved February 6, 1867, as autlwrlzes an appeal from the judgment of the Circuit Court (o the Sipreme Court of the United States, or the exercise of any snch jurisdiction by said Supreme Court on appeals which have been or may be hereafter taken, be, and the same ls hereby, repealed." These words are not of doubtful Interpretation. They repeal only so much of the act of 1867 as au? thorized appeals or the exercise of appel late Ju? risdiction by this court. They affected only ap? peals and appellate Jurisdiction authorized by that act. They do not purport to touch the ap? late Jurisdiction conferred by the Constitution by excepting from lt any cases not excepted by the act of 1780. They reach no act except thc act of 1867. lt bas been suggested, however, thc act of 1780, so far as lt provided for the issuing of writs or habeas corpus by this court was air?adv repealed by the act of 1867. We have already observed that there are no repealing words la that act. If lt repealed the act of 178D, it did so by implica? tion; and any Implication which would give to it this effect upon the act of 1789, would give lt the ?ame effect upon the acte of 1833 and 1842. If one was repealed all were repealed. Repeals by implication are not favored. They are seldom admitted except on the ground of re? pugnancy ; and never, we think, when the former act can stand together with the new act. Ko doubt the exercise of appellate Jurisdiction under the act of 1789 was less convenient than under tho act of 1867: but the provision of a new and more convenient mode of Its exorcise does not neces? sarily take away tke old: and that this effect waa not Intended ls indicated by the fact that the au? thority conferred by the new act is expressly declared to be "In addition" to the authority con? ferred by the former acts. Addition ls not sub? stitution. The appeal given by this act of 1867, extended, indeed, tee cases within the former acts; and the act, by its grant of additional authority, so en? larged thc Jurisdiction by habeas corpus that lt seemed, as was observed in tke McCardle case, "Impossible to widen lt," Bat this effect does not take from the act Its character of an addition? al grant of Jurisdiction, and make lt operate as a repeal of Jurisdiction heretofore allowed. OOMCLUPION. Onr conclusion is that none of the acts prior to 1867, authorizing this court to exercise appel? late Jurisdiction by means of the writ of habeas corpus, were repealed by the act of that year, and that the repealing section of the act of 1868 ts limited In terms, and must be limited In effect, to the appellate jurisdiction authorized by the act O? 1867. We could come to no other conclusion without holding that Hie whole appellate Jurisdiction of this court, in cases of habeas corpus, conferred by the Constitution, recognized by law, and exer? cised from the foundation of the government hitherto, has been tuken away, without thc expression of such intent, and by mere impli? cation through the operation of the acts of 1867 and 1868. The suggestion made at thc bar that the provis? ion of the act or 1789, relating to the Jurisdiction of the court by habeas corpus, if repealed by the effect of the act of 1867, was revised by the repeal of the repealing act has not escaped our considera? tion. Wc are inclined to think that snch would be the effect of 1868; but having come to the con? clusion that the act of 1789 was not repealed by the act of 1867, it Ls not necessary to express au opinion on that point. The argument having been confined, by direc? tion of the court, to the question of Jurisdiction, this opinion is limited to that question. The juris? diction of the court to issue the writ prayed for ls affirmed. JUSTICE MILLER DISSENTS. Associate Justice Swayne was understood to remark 'hut hu had been requested to say for As? sociate Justice Miller, who was absent, that the latter dissented from the opinion.

ALL ABOUT THE STATE. Shooting Affair. The, Spartanburg Spartan says: "One day last week, at a sale at Ur. Dillard Dobbin's, Jeremiah Martin was shot in the arm by H. M. Tamer. We are informed that the parties' were engaged in friendly conversation, when Turner drew bis pistol and fired.. There was no immediate provocation, though there had been a difficulty between them some years ago. We understand that Turner says lt was an ac? cident." Bold Robbery. The Kingstree Star says: "We learn that Mr. Bradshaw, while travelling on foot in the neighborhood of Indlantown, fell in company with a young negro boy scarcely grown, who, while walking Just in the rear of. Mr. Brad? shaw, struck nim a blow on the back; of the head with a hoe which knocked him senseless. The negro then rifled his pockets of all the money he had and made his escape. This oc? curred in day time on the public road." .Newberry Court. The Herald says: "The extra term of the Court of Common Pleas, which convened on the 11th Instant, is continued to this, the third week of ita session. In our judgment it gives relief to the country, inasmuch as the Jury have unanimously agreed that in all ante-war cases. Judgments shall only be given for one half of the principal and interest to the 1st of I January, 1861, against the principal, and one half of that sum against the sureties. And on the most of the debts contracted during the war, the same rule is applied, except In ex? treme cases, where the true value of the prop? erty is looked Into, and a verdict given for one-half of that sum, in cases of personal property, and for thc whole amount where the contract was made for real estate. Contracts made during the war for substitutes, and aU contracts for purchase of slaves, under the ruling of his Honor Judge Orr, are thrown out of court, or held to be unconstitutional, and cannot be collected. About four hundred liti? gated cases have been disposed of on the issue docket." Hold on to Cotton. ' The Spartanburg Spartan advises its readers to ?old on to their cotton. It says : " The mercantile interest may suffer for a short time, biit the general adoption of this policy will, in the end, prove advantageous to all. 1 The merchant will receive the benefit of whatever advance there may be upon the present price, and he ought to be willing to walt. It is said that twenty-two cents ls a good price for cot? ton, and farmers ought to.be willing to take it in preference to risking a further decline; but we do not think this ls a fair price this year. There is but little over a half crop made In the cotton States, and In Sooth Carolina not so much as that. So that tweuty-two cents is only about eleven cents for a full crop. Reduce eleven cents to gold and the farmer realizes but eight and a half cents in gold for his cot? ton, which was not a remunerative price be? fore the war, when labor was much cheaper and more productive than it Is' now. We are uow more thoroughly convinced than ever that the decline in the price is the result of a cruel combination among speculators and cap? italists. The farmers of tills district are gen? erally able to hold their cotton for some time yet, and we hope they wiU do It*" The Marder ai Dora's Hines. The Edgefleld Advertiser gives the following account ol the recent murder at Dom's Mines : ' "On Saturday night, October 9th, a brutal murder was committed at one of the quarters connected with Dom's Steam Mills, near Rocky Pond, In tbls county. An inquest was held by 0. H. Hart, Esq., magistrate, and acting coroner, and a verdict rendered by the jury, "Stabbed with knives in the hands of some person or persons unknown." '.'It appears that Dr. Ghealein, who-hadthe lease ol the mill, had paid off his hands on Thursday, October 7th, and retired from the business, deeming lt unprofitable, for various reasons. Wm. Dom, Esq., owner of the mill, requested a neighbor, Geo. D. Tillman, Esq., to employ some persons to take charge of the property until he could make some disposition of lt Mr. Tillman employed John Landon, (one ot the old' employees,) who with his wife Louisa Landon, were left on Saturday night ia I charge of the property. During the night they were, both attacked in their own quarters and brutally stabbed to death. El /ht shots were fired into and through the house, supposed to .be from Winchester rifles-the calibre being tba same. "It ls known that Landon had some proper S\ and something like $80 or $90 in money, o clue has yet been found to the murderers. It ls presumed that whoever committed the act were In possession of the fact that the de- ? ceased had money, and were alone. \ "The Coroner turned the property Into the hands of a friend of Landon's, who has since taken out letters of administration. "The old couple were good livers and were universally respected by the people of the neighborhood, white and colored. The only theory that can at present be formed ls, that the murderers killed the old man, and after compelling the woman to \ show where the money was, murdered her to prevent recogni? tion or discovery. It ls certain that they at? tempted to burn the house, as a piece of bum? ing wood had been thrown upon the pallet on the floor, and become extinguished. The scene of the occurrence ls over a mlle from any house, and the entire matter seems en? veloped In mystery. We hope that efforts will be made by the people in the vicinity, as well as elsewhere, to ferret out this matter, and have the heartless villains brought to justice." Shreds of State News.
