The steamer Stonewall was burned yesterday, forty miles above Cairo. Of the crew and pas sengers, numbering two hundred and fifty, but forty odd were saved. The vessel left St. Louis on Tuesday evening ror New Orleuns heavily laden with passengers, horses, mules, hay and other freight. She was burned to the water's edge. An effort was made to hind, hut the boat was so heavily laden that site could not reach nearer than One hundred yards or the shore. Croat conruslon and terror prevailed with about 200 cabin and deck passengers on board, a large proportion being women and children. The Haines spread rapidly, and scores or men jumped into the water and at tempted to swim In Hie shore, and nearly all were lost. The pilot, engineer, stoker, carpenter, and forty-four passengers are known to be saved. The captain, clerks anil other officers, and many passengers, are known to lie lost. All Ihc hooks and papers of the boat were lost, as were all tlacs cattle and other freight. Mnuy persons died after reaching the shore from exposure, ami the women aad children were lost, nearly all being burned to death. The conduct of Ihc passengers and officers is said to have been heroic. Such nu ap palling scene has not been witnessed on the.Mis sissippi ror many years. The saved were kindly eared ror by the officers of the Hello Memphis, and were carried to SI. Louis. The second engineer af the Stonewall makes tho following statement: Ths alarm was given at rein, ami in Inn mill ntcs the hoat was in n sheet of names; every person had deserted her: all that were lost were uTnwin.il and none were burned. Of eleven women on board but three were saved. Hut one rnwl was seen and that was taken possession of by some deck passengers. The last seen of Captain Scott be was floating down the stream on a log. The peo ple at Neety's saw a light and hastened to iissisl. A gentleman from Pailiicah. Kentucky, swam ashore with a lady, ami ?Plier entreaty returned to save her child. In swimming ashore he was grasped by a drowning man and was compelled to shake him oil". Fiilkcr.-ou, the pilot, ami the carpenter, were the only ones of the crew saved. Another statement is thai the fire originated from a candle which the deck passengers had nearsom hay while playing cards. Thosle.inicr was run on a gravel bar, Ilm pilot supposing that tho passengers could wade ashore oh Hie bar; bill at tbe end runs u slough, and here the larger number weru- drowned. y Kirs KttOM yjuaixiA.

The Washington papers bring us the roll text of the opinion of Chief Justice Chase In the Yorgcrcasc. It docs nothing more than aflirm the Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court lo issue the writ prayed for?that of hatitus corpus. When Ycrgcr 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, nguln, they may not lie. There is abso lutely nothing in the opinion which either touches those acts or by Implication even re fers to them. Before the case thus comes up on its merits, Congress may oust the Court of its Jurisdiction, aud leave Mr. Ycrgcr lu the hands ol his military murderers. The opinion reads as follows: Sunntne Court of the L'nilcd States, Drrember ?lrm, ISOH? No. 17 fOriijinal.)?In the matter of KitwarU U. Yeryer, petition for habeas iiirpus and certturari.?Opinion of the Court by chief Justice Chase. STATEMENT OF THE CASE. Upon the prayer of tint petitioner, addressed to the Circuit Court of the United States for I ho Southern District of Mississippi, a writ o( habeas corpus was directed to certain military oWcri-a holding the petitioner In custody, commanding them to produce his body and abide the order of the Court. In obedience to this writ the petitioner was brought into court by Mojor-fl neral It. S. Oran ger, iv lu I inudo his return, in due form, certifying the cause of detention lo he that the petitioner bad la-en arrested, ami was held for trial, upon a churgc of murder by a military commission under the act of Congress of Ute 2d of March. IW?7, to provide for the more efllelcnt government of the rebel Status. Upon this return the petitioner was ordered iulo custody of the marshal, ami the court pro ceeded to hear argument. It was admitted that the petitioner was a private citizen of the Stale of Mississippi; that he wu? being tried >iy the military commission without a jury and without presentment or iudlct men I by a grand jury; and that he was not anil never had been connected with the array sr navy of the. United States, or with the militia In active service in lime or wur or Invasion. Upon this case the Circuit Court adjudged that the Imprisonment of the petitioner was Inwful, and passed au order that the writ of habeas cor pus be dismissed, and that the prisoner be re manded to the custody of the military ulliccr by whnm be had been brought into court, to be hold and detained for the purposes und to answer lo the charge set forth in the reiurn. To obtain the reversal of this order ami relief from Imprisonment, the petitioner now asks for a wrll of oerttarari to bring here for review the pro ceedings ol llto Circuit Court, and tor it wrll. of habeas ctmtus to he issued, under the authority of lids court, to the ufltcer lo whoso custody he wus remanded. rrs iitrottTANcn. Upon the suggestion of the Attorney-General, made In view or the Importance or the questions which will probably arise if the case la brought to hearing, wo have henrd preliminary argument upon the jurisdiction of lite Court lo issue the writ prayed for, and have carefully considered the reasonings which have been addressed to us. This argument, by the direction of the Court, was conlincd to thu slugle point of jurisdiction, and I am now to Hlalc the conclusions to which we have come. TUE QUESTION OF JCIMS01?TI0N. The general question of jurisdiction in this case resolves ilscir uecessarlly Into two narrower qucs tlous: 1. Has the Court jurisdiction, In a caso like the present, to Inquire into the cause of detention alleged to.bo unlawful, and to give relief. If the detention be found to uc in fact unlawful, by the. writ or hateus corpus, under tbc judiciary not of 17S0V 2. If, under that act, the Court possessed the Jurisdiction, has it been taken itway by tbc second section of the act of March 27, Is US, (IA lt. S. Statutes, repealing so much of the act or Feb ruary h, 1H07, (It U. S. .SlaluUw, MA,) as authorl/.es appeau fr um Circuit couru lo the Supreme Count Neither or these questions Is now here. The llrst hns, on several occasions, received very full consideration aud very deliberate Judgment. A cause so important as that, which now in vokes the action of the Court seems, however, to Jusiify a reconsideration of the grounds upon which its Jurisdiction has been bltherie main tained. The great writ of habeas corpus has been ror centuries esteemed the bent aud only suniciciii defence of personal freedom. MAUNA CHARTA. In England, after a long struggle, it was firmly guaranteed by the famous luibeas corjius act or May 29, 1679, (3 Itritish Statutes at Large, 3 Hal hun Constitutional History, tu,) "for the better securing of the liberty of the subject," which, as Hlac.W.slonc says, "Is frequently considered as another waanu Charta." (II I Hack si one's Com mentaries, 13?.1 It wus hruughi lo America hy the colonists, and claimed as among the immemorial rights des cended lo them from their ancestors. Naturally, therefore, when the Confederated Colonies became tbe United States, and the form ation or a common government engaged their de liberations la convention, this great writ round prrsiuucnt sanction In the Constitution. That sanction is in these words: "The privilege or the writ or habeas corpus sball not be suspended unless when, in cases of rebellion or Invasiou, the public safety may re qtilro'il." The terms of tlds provision necessarily Imply judicial action. In England all i he higher courts were open to applicants Tor the writ, aud it is hardly snppusahlc that under the new govern ment, founded on more llhcrul ideas und princi ples, tiny court would be, intentionally, closed to i nein. We find, accordingly, that the Pirsl Congress under the Constitution, after (lelininghy various sections of the act of September 24,17811, the ju risdiction of the. District Courts, the Circuit Courts, aud the Supreme Court in other ttuactf, proceeded, In Hic Uth section, to enact, "Tiiat nil tbe before mentioned courts orthe United stales shall have power to issno writs or seire facias, habeas corpus, and all other writs not specially provided by stittuio which may be necessary Tor the exercise of their respective jurisdiction's mid agreeable to the principles and usages or law." (1 U.S. Statutes, hi.) in tbc same seel ion It was further provided, "That either of the jus tices of the Supreme Court, us well us the judges or the District Court, shall have power to gran: writs or habeas corpus tor the purpose of an in quiry Into the cause of commitment, provided that writs Of Italiens corpus shall in no case ex tend to prisoners In Jail, unless they are in custo dy under or by color of Hie. authority of the Unit ed stuies, or arc committed for triai before some court or the same, or are necessary to lie brought iulo court lo leslify." That this conn in one of the courts to which the power lo issue writs of iiatieascorpas is expr?s iy given by the terms or this section, has never been questioned. It would have been, indeed, a remarkable anotnnly If this court, ordained hv the Constitution for the exercise. In ihc United Slates, or the most Important powers, In civil cases, of all thu highest courts of England, had been denied, under a Constitution which abso lutely prohibits the suspension of the wrll. OX ccpl under extraordinary exigencies, that power in cases of alleged unlawful restraint which the luilieas corpus set of Charles II expressly declar ed those courts to possess. Ari'RI.I.ATR AMD ORIOINAr, JUHISDICTtOK. Hut the power vested in this Court Is. in an im portant particular, unlike that possessed hy tue English courts. The Jurisdiction of this court is conferred by ihc. Constitution, and Is appellule: wkercas Ihal of the English courts, though de clared and defined by Mainte, Is derived from Ihc common law. and is original. The judicial potter of the United States extends In all cases In Inw and equity arising under the. Constitution, IhOlaws Of Ihn United Stale--, nod treaties made under lli'-lr authority, mid to large classes of cases determined by tho character of the parlies or the nature of the controversy. That part or this judicial power vested In this Court is dcllned by the Constitution .In these words: "In all cases affecting ambassadors, other pub lic ministers, and consuls, ami those In which a Stale shall oc a party, the Supreme Court shall have original jurisdluiIon. In all tho other cases before mentioned, the Supremo Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions nnd under such regulations as the Congress shall make." If the question were a new one it would, per haps, deserve Inquiry whether Congress might not, under the power to make exceptions from this appellate Jurisdiction, extend the original jurisdiction to other cases than those expressly enumerated lu Um Constitution, and especially III view of the constitutional guarantee of thu writ Of habeas corpus to cases arising upon peti tion for that writ. But in the ease er Marbury vs. Madison (1 Cr., 187) It was determined, upon full consideration, that tue power to issue writs of ntap?tr??s glvcu to this coin-: by the thirteenth section nf the Judiciary act is under the Constitution, ail ap pellate jurisdiction, to be exercised iHlly in I be revision or Judii'tal divisions. And, this judg ment has ever since been accepted ns fixing tue construction uf I Iiis part of tho Constitution. It was pronounced in IS00. In jso7 the same cotiKiruciliin wus given vo the provision of the fourieeiitb section relating lo tin* writ nfawlMws corpus, in the euse of liuliuian and Bwurtwoul. (I Cr., I till. ) The power to issue the writ had been previously exercised in Hamilton's case, lTOi, (:: Cr., 44?,") und In lim toru's ease. IKihj, in neither of which cases does the distinct mu between appellate und original jurisdiction appear lo have been made. In lite case of Pullman and Swarlwout. how ever, I lie point wus brought distinctly before the court, the out are of the jurisdiction wns careful ly examined, und it was id dure.I tirbc appellate. The question Iben delerinlued ban not since been drawu into coulrovervy. DOOTRINK Of TUB nOKBTlTlTION. Tbe doctrine of the Constimtlon, and of the rnscv thus fur, limy be summed up In these pro positions: I. The original jurisdiction of yds court cannot lie extended by Congress loan., other cases tbau Ihoseexpressly dellued by the Constitution. The appellate jurisdiction of this court eon fcred by Hie Constitution extends to all other cases within the judicial power of tbu United Slates. ti. This appellate jurisdiction is subject to such exceptions, nud must be exercised under such re gulation* as Congress, in Hie exercise of its dis cr?tion, has made or may see in lo make. 4. Congress nut only has not excepted writs of habeas Corpus nud muurftitiius from lids ap pellate jurisdiction, hat has expressly provided for the exercise of this jurisdiction by mcaus or these writs. We come, then, to consider the lirst great ques tion made in tliocase now before un. We shall assume, upon the authority of the de cisions referred lo, what wo should hold were the question now for the Una lime presented lo us. that in n proper case this court, under Hie act or I7KH, mill under all the suiiscmicnt acts, giving jurisdiction In eases of halten* rorjtHS, may. In Hie exercise Of it.s appellate powe.r. revise the de cisions of inferior courts or the United Stntes, und relieve from unlawful Imprisonment authoris ed by ilieui, except In cases within nume llmlln tloii of the jurisdiction of Congress. It remains to Inquire whether the case before ns Is a proper one for auch Interpretation. Is It within any such limitation? In other words, can this court inquire lulu ihc lawfulQom of deten tion, and relieve from 11, if round unlawful, when the detention complained of is not by civil au thority under a commitment made by mi Inferior court for trial hi a civil court, but by military otll cent for trtnl before a military tribunal, after ail examinai inn into the cause of detention by the Inferior court resulting In an order rciuiiiidlug the prisoner to custody * It w:ls insisted, in argument, that "to bring a case within the appellate jurisdiction or lids court In Hie sense requisite to enable it to award the writ or halten* Airpus, under the judiciary act, II Is necessary that the commuaient should appear to have been by a iribunnl whose deci sions are subject to revision by this court." This proposlt ion seems lo assert not only that Hie decision to be rovlscd upon habeas corpus must have been made by n cOti.H at Hie United Stales subject lo the ordinary appcllatu Jurisdic tion i>f t hi* court, but that having been made, It must have resulted In an order of commitment to civil authority, subject lo the conirol of the court making it. - juuiciaii Atmioumra. The (irs; brunch uf this (imposition has certain ly some support In Met/.ger's ease, (5 How., 170,) In which It was held Hint an order uf commit ment made by a district Judge at chumbcrs can mil lie revised here by habeas corpus. This case, as was observed by Mr. Justice Nelson in Koine's ruse, (14 How., tott.) stands aloho; nud It may admit of question whether it cau '*ic entirely re conciled with the proposition, which we regard as established upon principle and authority, thai tbe appellate jurisdiction by habeas corpus ex tends to all cases of commitment by the judicial authority or Hie t inted Suites not excepted Trout it by Congress. . . Hut il Is unnecessary to enter upon this inquiry here. The action which we are nnfeed lo revise was Huit of a tribunal whose decisions aro sub ject to revision by this court in ordinary modes. We nerd consider.-therefore, only llie' second branch of the proposition, namely, that the auilou ol the ipfcrlor court must have resulted In a com mitment for trial In a civil court, and tbe infer ence drawn from It Hint no roller can bo had hero by hnbeas enrjtus tram iuiprlsonnieot under mili tary authority, to which the petitioner may have been rrmatided-by such a court. V . This proposition, certainly, Is not-Supported by authority, lu Ealne'H case aU'lhb-TkVlje'i except one, aborted,directly or Indirectly, the jurisdic tion or this court to give relier lu a case where the detention was by order or a United Stntes commissioner. The lawfulness or the detention had been exumined by the Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York npon n writ of Am bras carpus, and the conn bad dismissed the writ mid remanded the prisoner to custody, la mis court relier was denied on the merits, but the jurisdiction was dcuird by one judge only. And It Is dlflicult lo (lud uuy substantial ground iipon which jurisdiction iu that ease can be aillrmcd and denied in thin. In Well's ease, (18 Howard, aos.) the petitioner was confined In Hie penitentiary, under a sen tence ol death, commuted by the President Into a sen truce of imprisonment ror lire, lie obtained a writ or habt as etnpus from the Circuit Court or the District or Columbia; wits brought before tbe court, and wns remanded to custody. He then s (led out a writ of tut bra s carpus from this court, and his case was fully considered here.- No ob jection to the Jurisdiction seems to have been taken In argument, though there, as here, it was evident that the actual Im prison men l at the time of the petition for the writ was not tinder the direction or the court by whose order the prison er wus remanded, but by a dur?rent and dlstluut authority. In this case of Wells, however, Mr. Justice Cur tis again dissented, und on the poiut of jurisdic tion Mr. Justice Campbell concurred wltb felin. The other judges, though all, except one, were of opinion that the relief asked must lie dented, agreed in maintaining Hie jiirlsdlcilou of the court. Judge Curtis, Who regarded the ouest ion as ten undetermined In Kulue's case, admitted that the jurisdiction was asserted lu this, and staled the ground or judgment arsTming juris diction to be that, "ns the Circuit Court has bad the prisoner before It, and has remanded him, tills court, by a writ or habeas carpus, nay ex amine that decision, and see whether It be erro neous or not." Since this judgment was pronounced I he Juris diction In cases similar to Hint now before the court has not blthcrio been qucsll.si. TUB AltOl'ltltNT CONSI liKltKli. We have cnrefully considered the argument against it, made in this case, and are sutlstied iiiai nie doctrine heretofore maintained is sound. The great anil lending intent of Usas Constitu tion ami the law must be kept constantly In view upon tho examin?t ion of every question or con st rum ion. That mien'.. In respect to tho writ of habeas corpus, is tnanlfcat. It is, thai every ciii/.eu mav lie protected uy judicial action Irom unlawful un prlsoumcnl.

We uro not at lihrny to except rrom it any cases nui plainly excepted by law, and wo think It t siuil-ientlv appear! rrom what bus been said that , no exception lo UiH Jurisdiction embraces such a ' case as that now Ulfore the court. On tho eon- I Irary, the case is me of those expressly declared > not to be oxcepfrd front tho general grunt or * Jurisdiction, for It is a ease of imprisonment al leged lobe unlawful, nlnl to be under color of c autltnrity oftlic United Stales. It scrms to lie a necessary consequence that f If the appellate Jurisdiction by habeas corpuscx- j tend* to any case, It extends to this. It is un important In wiisl custody tho prisoner may he, > If it is a custody to which he tins been remanded by tho order of an Inferior court of the United ?taten. 1 H la proper to add that we are not aware of n anything in any actof Congress, except the act of 186S, which indicates any intention to with- .c hold appellate Jurisdiction In habeas corpus cases i from this court, or to abridge tbe Jurisdiction . derived from the Constitution, and defined by the act of 1780. We agree that Congress naay 1 withhold orabridge It, Tor It Is given Ktibjccl I? exception ami regulation i>y emigre**, hut ii is loo plain fur argument thai the denial tw this court or appellate jurisdiction in this clan* iff eases must greatly weukeu the olllciency of tin: writ, deprive iho citizen iu many eases of its licnodtM, ami seriously iiimler the establishment Of ; liai uni'": mu y lu decisions iipnu questions of personal righM which can only lie attained through appellate Jurisdiction exercised upon tie cisious of courts of original jurisdiction. In the particular class of cases of which that before the court is an example, where the custody lo Which i lie prisoner is remanded is Dial of some authori ty other than that of the remanding court, it Is evident thai the imprisoned cllly.cn. however un lawful his imprisoumcul muy he iu fuct, Is wholly without renn iv unless it he found in the appellate Jurisdiction Of this court. These considerations fdrhid any constructions giving to itouuCm words the effect of withhold ing or abridging tills Jurisdiction. They would strongly persuade against the denial of the Juris diction even were the reasons for orrcrlng it less cogent than they nre. We are oldlged to hold, therefore, that In all cases where a Circuit Court of the united States has, iu Ihe exercise of Its original jurisdiction, caused a prisoner to ho brought before It, and baa, after inquiring into the cause of detention, remanded him to Lite custody from which be wus taken, this court, In the oxerclse of Its appellate Jurisdiction may. by the writ of hatten* corpus, aided by the writ of rWtiOfttTt, revise the decis ion of the Circuit Court, and if U be found un mir runted by law, relieve the prisoner from the un lawful restraint lo which he has been rciuundcd. Tllk ACT OF IKtiS. nils conclusion brings us to the inquiry wheth er the second section of tin; act of March istis, takes uway oruil'ects the appellate Jurisdiction of Ulis court under the Constitution aud the acts of Congress prior to IK07. We have already expressed In the McCardle wise nu opinion that it docs. Hut the point was not carefully considered, aud we bavu rc-exuinln Cll It. (7 Wall, 610.) The circumstances under which the act of 18?X was passed were peculiar. TUB iPCAUUI.E CASK. Un the 6th of February, iso?, Congress passed an ucl, to which reference bus already been made, extending the original Jurisdiction hy habeas CorjtUS of the district aud circuit courts, and of ihe several judges of these courts, to all oases of restraint or liberty iu violation of the Constllu tlim, treaties, nr laws Of the Culled States. This Itcl 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. Coder this act one McCardle, alleging unlawful restraint by military force, petitioned the Circuit Court for the. Soul hern District of Mississippi for tbo writ of hatten? cor/ms. The writ- was Issued anil u re turn was made. Aud, irpou bearing, the court decided , that Ihe restraint was lawful, aud re manded him lo custody. McCardle prayed an appeal, under the act, to lids court, which was allowed and perfected. A motion to dismiss the appeal was miido here and denied. The case was Iben argued ut the bar, and, the argument hav ing been concluded, on the 0th of March. l8iW, wus taken under advlseiiieul by the court. While the cause was thus held, aud before the court hfl time to consider the decision proper to lie man . the repealing act under consideration was intro duced Into Congress, The net wus carried through both Houses, sent to the President, re turned wll h his objections, repassed by the con stitutional majority In ?".ich House, and became a law on the'27th of March, wllhln -eighteen days after Hie conclusion of the argument. The effctt or the act whs to oust the court or Us jurisdiction or the particular case then before it on appeal, and It Is not to be doubted that such wua the effect intended. Vor will it be questioned that legislation of Ibis character Is unusual and hardly to be Justlllcd, except upon tome Imperious public, exigency. It was doubtless within tbc constitutional dis cretion of Congress to del er m lue whether such au exigency existed; but It Is not lobe presumed that au ucl passed under such circumstances was iu- , tended to have any further cifcct than that plainly apparent from Ils terms. It is quite cJjnvr,tliai the words of the act reach not oulv ut? ,.tnvw<i- pending, but all future ap peals to UitsSfc^.rl under the act of I8H7; but they appear to be Unilted to appeals taken uudcr that act. The words of the repealing section arc, "That so much of the act approved February S, 1807, as authorizes am appeal from the judgment of the Circuit Couru lo the Sapretnc Court of the United Slates, or the exercise of any such jurisdiction by mid Supreme Court on appeals which have been or may be hereafter tukeu, .be, und the same la hereby, repealed.1' . These word* are not of doubtful Inlcrpretallon. They repeal only so much of the act or 1807 as nu Hiorlr.cd Uppcahf or the exercise or apt>cllate Ju risdiction by this court. They affected only ap peals aud appellate Jurisdiction authorized by thai act. They do not purport to touch the up late Jurisdiction conferred by the Constitution by excepting from It any cases not excepted by the ! act of 178U. They reach no act except the act or 1867. It has been suggested, however, the act or 1780, so fur as It provided for tbo issuing or writs or habeas corpus by this court was ulroady repealed by the act or IS117. We have already observed that there are no repealing words Iu that act. Ir It repealed the act or 17*1), It did bo by Implies tlou; and any implication which would give to it tbiH erred upon the act of 17N0, would give It the name effect upon the acts of IKtla and 1842. If one was repealed all were repealed. Repeals by Implication are not favored. They are seldom admit ted except on the grouud of re pugnancy; and never, we think, when the rsriuer act can stand together with the new act. No doubt the exercise of appellate jurisdiction under the act of 1789 was less convenient than under the act of 1HQ7; but the provision or a new and more convenient mode or its exercise does not noces sartly lake away the old: aud that this effect was not Intended is Indicated by the racl that the au thority conferred by the new act Is expressly dcelured to be "In addition" to the authority con ferred by the former acts. Addition Is not sub stitution. The appeal given hy this act or 1K07, extended, Indeed, tbe cases within the former acts; and the act, by Its grant or additional authority, so en larged the Jurisdiction by hatteas corpus that it seemed, as waH olwurved In the McCardle caso, "Impossible to widen It." Hut this effect does not take from the act its character or an addition al grant of Jurisdiction, and muke It operate as a repeal or jurisdiction heretofore allowed. CONCLUSION. Onr conclusion is that none of the acts prior to 1SU7, authorising '.his court to exercise appcl Inte Jurisdiction by means iff the writ or habeas corpus, were repealed by the act or that year, and thai tbc repealing section or the act or lS?S is limited in terms, and must be limited Iu effect, to the appellate Jurisdiction authorized by tho uct of 1S67. Wc could come to no other conclusion without holding that Hie whole appellate jurisdiction iff this court. In cases of hatteas corpus, conferred by the Constitution, recognized hy law, aud exer cised from the foundation of the ovcrnmeut hitherto, has been taken away, without the expression of such Intent, ami by mere impli cation through the operation or the AtiU r.f isti7 and 1808. Tho suggestion made at the bar that Ihn provis ion or Ihn uct of 17 vi, relating to the Jurisdiction iff tbe court by habeas corpus. If repealed by tho I'fToc.l of He- act or 1807, was revised by Ihe i epeal 3fthe repealing act huxuot escaped our considera tion. We are inclined lo think that such would lie tho effect of IMS; but having come to the non* :luslon that the act or 1780 was not repealed by he act or 1807, II is not necessary to express an (pinion on thai point. The argument having been confined, by direc tion or the court, lo the question of Jurisdiction, Ills opinion is limited to thai question. The Juris (lotion or the court to issue Ihe writ prayed fur is ifttriucd. JUHTIRK HH.I.KR D1S8KXTH.

The Kdgcfield Adveraiaer gives the following account of tho recent murder at Horn's Mines : "On Saturday night, October Uth, a brutal murder was committed at one of the quartern connected with Horn's steam Mills, near Rocky l'oint, in lids county. An iuipiesl was held by 0. II. Hart, Esq., magistrate, and acting coroner, and a verdict rendered by the Jury, "Stabbed with knives in the bauds of sonic person or persons unknown." "Itappears Hint Or. Uheslein, who had the lease of i lie mill, bad paid otf bis hands on Thursday, October 7th, and retired from the business, dooming it unprniKnblc, for various reasons. Win. Dorn, Esq., owner of the mill, requested a neighbor, (leo. I). Tilluinu, Ksq., to employ some persons io inke charge of the property until he could make some disposition of it. Mr. Tllltnan employed John l.andnu. (one ol the old employees,) who with his wife fan i Isa 1.ai u I on, were left on Saturday night In charge of the property. During tho night they were both altacked in their own quarters and brutally stubbed to death. Hint shots were llrcd Into and through iho bouse, supposed lo bo from Winchester rifles?the calibre being tin; same. "It 1b known that I .andon had some proper ly, and something like $R0 or *no in money. No clue has yet been found to the murderers. It is presumed that whoever committod the act were in possession of the fact that the de ceased had money, and were alone. "The ('oroncr turned the property Into the bands ol a friend of I.audon's, who ims 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 thai can nt. present be. formod is, thai, the murderers killed Hie old man, and after compelling the woman to show where the money was, murdered her to prevent recogni tion or discovery. It Is certain thul they at tempted to burn Die house, as a piece ol burn ing wood bad been thrown upon the pallet on the Hour, and become extinguished.
