The right of private property in slaves is
enumerated in tbe Constitution and its protec.
lion solemnly guarantied. Congress has no
right to toko any “private property” except for
'public use” and not even then without just
compensation. Congress may “exercise ezclu
sive legislative in all cues whatsoever, over”
the Distiict of Columbia, bat in doing no it
rsnnot violate any other provision of tbe Con
stitution. It cannot wantonly destroy private
property; the right trial by j ary—or any
other right of tbe citizen which it expressly se
cured by the Constitution.

By penalties and forfeitures our rights might
be protected and our wrongs retaliated.
We have two striking examples of the exer
cise of tliis latter power—one by Congress, and
the other by every State which docs not toler
ate slavery. Congress has enacted that slaves
carried into tho District of Columbia for sale,
shall be forfeited. If slaves are Carried into
My one of tbe Northern States, eitherfur sale or
use, tbo act of tho State deprives the owner ot
hie property. According to tlie principle of
these acts, the States may by penalties and
forfeiture* prevent tbe sale or consumption
within tbe State of any species of property
which they may select.
Such are some of tbe reserved powers of
the States; and whenever it may be deemed
proper to extrrise them they will be found equal
to tbe peaceable protection of oor constitution
al rights.

I deem it proper to advise every Ship Master leaving
a Southern port, to take with him the following
receipr, which 1 have put up for near four years;
and it has been found to be the best snd most effect
ual remedy for fevers ever known at sea:
Take of Snakermt 2 ounces.
“ Quassia I ounce.
“ Epsom Salts, 2 nonces.
Poor into this, at night, s half-gallon of bailing
water; allow it to stand all night, snd every uu*n-

The above can be found at any Drag Store; and
