R In Hutton town :1 thing tool: place
, As had us could have been:
A dog attacked a little boy,
Ami bit hi on the Shin!
‘ But thenjit ought ‘.0 be observed,
Some people quite deny.
That said dogbit the boy at all.
But say "thief-'9 all it lie :”
"The boy was climbing on a fence,
And fell against arall 2"’
And when thejdo_g’s teeth tore his leg,
"He scrntchédit with 1} null,”
Bcsidesthc dog had run away,
And hjadjhistuil displayed
Towards the boy,-at'juIt'the time
Jfhcy say the bite was made.
But forty doctors. came about,
, And tenold w.omen"mor'e, -
And when ._they’c_l ding;-nosed thewound
\ With one accord they swore :
That if‘ ;nhéjmtilhad madethe scratch,
"The lock-jaw. wouldensue ;-"
But. if’ the dog, fitlhe boy" would have
The hydrophobic too.”
But none couldhtjelpl lfdog or rail
Had mode the boy"g'o'lame;
And so they held a solemn court,
To try, which ms to blame-—'-
A solemn judg'e-(he-held the court-,)
The WIS in the States; .. .
And twelve sage jurors took their Beats,
And scratched thglrvsolontn pater.
The four wise lawyers tried to look-

And asked the doctors all ‘about
The nature of the wound. _
The Plaintiff swore t_?I._CA}g'INl'. nail

That of a. barking, ‘bit-lug cur,
As mad as n March"lia'reL
Defendant utterly disproved,
The cuws about thonail;
And said the only bark there was,
Was bark upon the rail.
The lawyers then tallied long and loud,
And scattered far ‘and wide;
Ami spent their utmost might and main
The law and facts to hide.
And so the jury took the case,
And having talked it-,o’er_,
Their verdict was to put, justoone

Then all the people felt relieved,

ance of an object ’ in which not oulg the

which concerns the whole Union, and
even human nature itself. '
Mr. President, I have made my way
at last, through the intricate mazes of
this discussion, to the actual question be-
fore the Senate. The bill before us is
these words: _
"If a suit be commenced or pending in any
State Court, against any officer of the United
States, or under color thereof, or for or on ac-
count of any right, authority, claim, or title,
set up by such omcer or other person, under
any law of the United States, and the defend-
ant shall, at the first term of such State Court
after the passageot" this act, or at the first
term of such State Court after such suit shall
be commenced, file 9. petition for the removal
of the cause for trial into the next Circuit
Court to be held in the district where the suit
is pending, or, if there be no Circuit Court in
such district, then to the District Court, iuvee
ted with the powers of aCircuit. Court, next to
be held in said district, and offer good and suf- e
on the first day of its session. copies of said
process against him and also for his there ap-
pearing and entering special bail in the cause. _
if splccial boil was originally requisite therein;

VVhat is proposed here is an innova-
tion--n new thing--21 thing unknown in
the laws of the country since the Sate.-
came into a Federal Union. That new
thing is, that a person, civilly prosecuted
in a State Court, and justifying under,
authority or color ofr. law of the United
States, may oust the State of its jurisdic-
tion, and remove the come into a. court
of the United States. The first question
which arises, is, how does the thing stand
now’! How has it hitherto stood"?-—
What are the powers of the State Courts
and what are their duties '3 _VVhat are
«he rights of parties in the State Courts"?
The Constitution of the United States
binds together in Federal Union thirty-
lone States, which, while they remain
equal and qualified sovereigmies, at the
some time constitute, in the aggregate,
another qualified sovereignty. In so
much as the chief business of govern-
ment’ is to protect the rights of its citi-
zens or subjects, and as the performances
of thltdury is, under free governments
a'snighed to Courts of Justice, and in so
much as the citizen ,is_ simultaneously
llII_Itlbject or a State Government and
‘of the Federal Government, the State
Courts and-the United States Courts ex-
ercise concurrently or co-ordinatoly the
poworof trying civil actions which are
brought -against persons acting as ofllcers
of the Federal Government. _
The public officers of the United States
are, as‘ we all know, numerous, and of
many clIsIes—-—civil, military and naval.
They are engaged in executing laws. re-
latingto the army, the mvy,the customs
the public lands, the Post Office, the ju-
diciary and foreign relations. These
agents may be called upon to lnuver by
any person who is aggrieved, either in
the proper Federal Court or in It Court
of the State where the grievance happen-
ed. A case which will illustrate the
subject ‘now occurs to me. Two or
three years ago, I successfully maintain-
ed, in the Supreme Court of the United
States‘, an action on the case which had

which lm.s,hit_herto shielded him, and he
must either furego redress or seek it in a
tribunal of the U. S, in which justice is
administered by Judges appointed by the
the President and the! Senate, and irre-

House of Representatives; and there.‘

ent. of State--authority, and when prose-
cuted before a Magistrate or Court, in
the immediate vicinage where his offense
is v.on1mitt.ed, will defy the party ag-
grieved, and remove the action commen-
ced against him into a Federal tribunal,
whose terms are rarely held, and then in
remote and practically inaccessible pla-
ces. One-half of the power residing in
the States is thus to be wrested from them
at a single b|ow,'und they will henceforth
stand shattered monuments of" earlier
greatness. ~Nn such change as this was
stttlcipaterl by the framers of our Feder-
aland State Constitutions. They estab-
lished the Federal Constitution chiefly
for the protection of the whole country
against foreign dangers. They gave to
it a stronger Executive than they gave
to the States, respectively.
They established the State Constitu-
tions chiefly for the protection and de-
fense of personal rights. They knew
that this Central Government would
grow stronger and stronger, and would
ultimately become an imperial power.-—
It has realized that expectation, and has
‘:-scams even a Continental Power.-—
Hitherto, the citizen has enjoyed his dou-
ble safeguard. Why shall one-half’ of
his panoply be now torn away from him?
What lawful and proper object of the
Federal Government has failed to He ob-
tained by reason of the exercise ofjuris-
diction by State authorities of the United
States’? None. Why, -then, shall the
-ancient. law and custom be changed ?--
lu than danger that the citizen will be
via secure under that double protection
of the State Courts and of the. Federal
Courts? That was not the doctrine of
the earlier days, and that is not sound
doctrine now. ldemand, in the third
place, a reason for this innovation.
Inreply, you urge, first, gt precedent.
Precedems, in every country, are the
.-stairway of tyrants. \Vha‘t is this prec-
edent? It is a law which protects the
public Treasury, by withdrawing from
the State Courts certain actions against
(follectors of the revenue. \Vhp knows
now, without more examination than you
allow time for us to make,ou what ground
or under what circumstances, or upon
what exigeucy, that single departure
from the ancient system was made ? I
do not know that I sh.ould have been in
favor of that departure. Nor can you
-how that the innovation thus made, and
\\’lll(‘.h you now plead as a precedent, was
necessary, We ‘are always wiser in our
judgments in retrospect than in anticipa-
tion. ‘ lean now see, when the prece-
Clem. is pleaded to justify a further depar-
ture from the ancient. system, abundant.
re-asmts to regret that the precedent was
ever established. You tell me, in the
next place, that there is danger of insub-
ord'u1atiou——danger that the State Gov-
ernments will nullify the laws of the Fed-
eral Government. This is always the
ready plea for Federal usurpatxons, It
is the same ground which the British
Government assumed towards British
subjects in the American Colonies, when
it transported th'em beyond the seats, to
be tried for pretended offences, I pro-
claim in your ears here, and I proclaim
before my countrymen, that there is no
necessity and no shadow of necessity for
this great and fearful change. From
every tribunal in any State of this Union
which rentlersja final judgment that can
affect the rights of any public officer of
the United States, there is an appeal to‘
the Supreme Court of the United States
reserved to him by the Constitution and
laws of the United States; andthuthigh
tribunal can, merely by its mandate, an-
uul that ju_dgment,.aud discharge the par-
ty from all its consequences. This, and
this alone, was the security which your
forefathers established to prevent the
evils and dangers of insubordination by
the State authorities. I proclaim, fur-
ther, that when the Constitution of the
United States wassubmitted to the peo-
ple in the several States to he adopted by
them, the chief objection which was ur-
ged against. it—-the objection which was
most urged with the most zeal, the most
energy and the moat effect—Was that the
liberties of the citizen would be brought
into jeopardy by the extended power of
the Federal J udiclary. So strenuously
was objection urged that the Constitu-
tion was not adopted until it was demon
strated, by Hamilton, Jay and Madison,
in The Federa-l1'st,. that the State juris-
t'.IlCl.ICII, which you are now about to

I habitually contemplateeverything con-
nected with the developement of the re-
sources, and with the extension and ag-
grandizement and glory of this, my coun-
try, with an enthusiasm which I am
sure I do not always find burning in the
hearts of all with whom it is my duty to
act in her Councils! But, Sir, I shudder
when I think that the development. this
, extension, this aggrandizement, and this
accumulation of glory, are going on firm-
ly, steadily and crushingly, at the ex-
pense of these noble, independent States
that the majestic dome, while it spreads
itself more widely and erects itself.-higlh
er, is pressing-into crumbling fragments
the pillars which constitute its true and
just support. Sir we have had on this
occasion, as we always have on painful
occasions of this kind, pathetic allusions
to the slifety of this Federal Union. And
these allusions have been addressed to
me, although I have hitherto been con-
tent to be a silent listener to this debate.
What do you think must be the feelings
of a man. himselfa Representative of
three millions, one-eighth of your whole
j people-——n Representative of one-sixth of
* all the freeman in the Republic- a Rep-
resentative of even a larger proportion
of the whole wealth of the country—a
Representative of your whole Concentra-
ted Commerce-—-when he finds himself
surrouded by men who think that anom-
munity so numerous and so intelligent.
and enjoying such _wealth, and cherish-
ing such interests, are so far habitually
blinded by passion as to be disloyal to
the Union on which all their safety de-
pends? Sir, I almost forget. my custo-
morary toleration when I see around me
men who know how the interests and
affections of their own homes cluster and
ent.win_e themselves with every fiber of
their own hearts, and who yet’ seem to
forget that those interests and affections
are the offspring of humanity itself, and,
therefore, common to all men, and sup-
pose that it is treason against the oppres-
sion of any one of its many and various
masses and races. ~
I warn you, Senators, that you are oa-
ving this Union at a» fearful cost, This
isa Republican Government-—the first
and only one that has ever been widely
and permanently successful.
‘ Every man in the counuy-—-every
man in Christendom, who knows any-
thing of the philosophy of government
knows that this Republic has been lhlle
successful only by reason of the stability
strength and greatness of the individual
States. You are saving the union of
those States by sapping and undermining
the columns on which it rests. You re-
ply to all this, that there is a newly de-
Veioped necessity for this act of Federal
aggraudizetnertt. The Courts of the
several States have exercised their con-
current jurisdiction over officers and
agents of the United States for a period
of sixty years, in cases which involved
life, liberty, property, commerce, peace,
and war, subject to supervision by the
suprsme tribunal of the Union; and
while individual rights have been main-
tained, the public peace has -been every-
where preaer'ved, and the public safety
has never received a wound. During
all that time there has never been an
agent or apologist ‘of the Federal power
so apprehensive for the public safety "as
to propose the measure which is now be-
fore us. There has been a time when
such a proposition would have been re-
ceived-with favor. There have, indeed
been diecontems‘; but they have been
local and transient. Such disconteuts
are incident to free society everywhere,
and_they are inevitable here. his through
the working of such disctjtents that free
communities, acting by constitutional res-
traints, work out the reformation of er-
rors, the correction of abuses, and the
advancement of society. ‘
All that has happened is a change of
the scene of these discontents, resulting
from a change in the geographical direc-
tion which the action of the Federal
Government lakes. I-Ieretofore the mur-
murs of discontent came from the South
Now the breeze which bears them sets
in from the North. When the wind
blew from the Southern quarter the rights
of the-citizen were not safe without the
inzerposition of the State tribunals.-—
Now, when it comes from an opposite
point of the compass, a Senator from
Connecticut (Mr. Toucey) requires con-
green to prohibit that interposition, and
to arm the Federal Government with
new and portemious power.
Mr. President, all this trouble arises
out of the Fugitive Slave Law The
transaction in which we are engaged is
by no means the first act of a new drama
You began here, in 1693, to extend into
the Free. State: by the exercise of the
Federal power, the war of races--the
war of the master against the slave.-
The Fugitive Slave Law, which was
then passed, became obsolete Though
no great inconvenience was sustained,
the pride of the slaveholdmg pojver was
wounded. In 1860, you passed a new
Fugitive Slave Law, and connected it
with measures designed to extend the
territorial jurisdiction of the United
States over new regions, without inhibi-
ting Slavery. You were told at that
time, as distinctly as you are told to-night
that your new law could not be execu-
, ted would become obsolete for the ‘oame
2 reasons that the old law had become ob-
' aolete ; that the {allure of the old law
had resulted, not from "its warn of gum.
gency, but from its too great stringency.
You were told then, as distinctly as you

This was the second set.’ When mur-

you resorted to an old and much abused
expedient. You brought "all the great.
political parties in the United States in-
to a coalition and league to maintain this
law, and every word and letter of it, un-
impaired, and to perpetuate it forever.
All your other laws, although they might
be beneficont, and productive of human
rights and of humtut liberty, could be

This was the thirdact. And where
are you now '2 . It is only fiveyears since
the Fugitive Slave Law was passed,-—
You have poured out treasure like wa-
ter to secure its execution. The public
police, the revenue service, the army
and the navy, have,be_<‘-I! 31 V0111‘ Wm-
mand, and have all been vigorously em-
ployed to aid in enforcing it. And still
the Fugitive-Slave‘ Law_ is not executed;
and is becoming obsolete. You demand
a further and a more stringent law. The
Federal Government must be armed with
new powers, subversive of public liberty
to enforce the obnoxious statute. The
bill before us supplies those new powers
This is the fourth set. It is easy to see
that it cannot be the final one-.
Sir, I look with sorrow, but with no
anxiety, upon these things. They will
have their and before long ‘in complete
discomfiture. I abidetbe time, and wait
for the event. I perform my duty, the
only duty which remains for me now, in
protesting against the enactment of this
law, and in expressing to you my cou-
viction that you are travelling altogether
in the wrong direction. If you wish to
secure respect to the Federal authorities
to cultivate harmony between the States
to secure universal peace, and to create
new bonds of perpetual union, there is
only one way before you. Instead of
adding new penalties, employing . new
agencieshand inspiring new terrors, you
must go back to the point where you:
mistaken policy began, and conform your
Federal laws to MAONA Cnnvrn, to the
CONSTITUTION, and to the Rxonrs or

_ Our Foreign ’ Citizens.
The following is the advice which
John Mitchell the Irish Editor of the
Citizen, gives to his countrymen in Mas-
sachusetts, in view of the disbanding of
the military companies in that State:
For every musket given in to the State
Armory, 1:: three be purchased ,- let in-
dependent companies he formed, thrice
as numerous as the disbanded corps—-
there are no Arm Acts here yet—and let
every ‘{fo7-signer" be drilled and train-
ed, andluwe his arms always ready.-
For youmay be very sure (having some
experienceirx that matter) that those
who begin by disarming you, mean to
do you mischief.
Be careful not to truckle in the small-
lest particular to American prejudices.
Yield not a single jot of your own ;_for
you have as good a right to your preju-
dice: as they’. Do not by any/_ means,
safer Gardiner‘: -Bible (the Protestant
Bible) to be thrust down your throats.
Do not abandon your post, or renounce
your functions", as-citizens or as soldiers,
cut after resort to the last and highest
tribunal of law open to you, keep the
peace; attempt no "demonstrations,"
discourage drunkenness, and stand to
your arms. -
It is hardly to be conceived that the
madness of faction and the. insolence of
race, will proceed to such a length jag‘ to
disarm independent companies, or pri-
vate men. If they do, than the (Fausti-
zution 2': at aneml-—th¢ allegiance you
have sworn to this Republic is annulled.
Would to.God' that thoughtful and
just. Americans would bethink themselves
in time. They are strong ; they far
outnumber the foreign born; they are
proud and flushed with national glory
and prosperity; doubtless they can, if
they will, do great and grievous wrong
to a race that has never wronged them;
but seriously, earnestly, we assure them,
the naturalized citizens will not sub-
mit. This senseless feud must be recon-
C‘-tied ; thoremust be _ peace, or else a
warof extermination. We are here, on
American ground, either as citizens or
cl enemies.
