Fitch, dated Pun \delphia. May 10, 1838. DR. JAYNE —Dear Sir, —I feel that I can hardly say enough to you in favor of Jayne's Oleaginous Hair Tonic, prepared by you. My hair had been falling off about two years, and had become very thin, threatening speedy baldness, when I commenced using this remedy. In about one week, it ceased to fall off. i hav-e used it now about three months, and have as full and thick a head of hair as I can possibly desire. I have recommended its use to a number of my friends who all speak well of It. If faithfully employed’ I have no doubt ot its general success. I may add that before using the Tonic, I had iried almost all the various articles employed for the hair, such as the Macassar Oil, all the different preparations of Bear’s Oil, Vegetable Hair Oil, &c. Ike., without experiencing much, if any, benefit. Respectfully yours, S. S. Fitch, No. 172 Chesnut street. yrjTßefore Dr. Fitch used this Tonic his ha r be gan to be gray, but since then there is not a gray hair to be found on his head. Philadelphia, May 11, 1838. Dr. Jayne —Dear Sir,—l cheerfully and with pleasure submit the following to you, with the liberty of your making it public, should you have the desire: —For several months past my hair had been rapidly falling off, so much so indeed that by passing my fingers lightly through it, 1 could obtain a quantity in my hand. I had tried all the fash ionable nils of the day, without having received the slightest sensible benefit. The only resource that seemed left to me, was to have my head shav ed and wear a wig. Having, through a friend who had profitted by its use, heard of the remarkable cures effected by yne’s Oleaginous Hair Tonic, sold by you, I was induced, as a dernier resort, to’ try it. 1 have used two bottles, and am pleased to sajq that alter a few applications, my hair ceased entirely from coming out, the young hair made its appearance in great abundance, and that now I have a fine, luxuriant growth, and believe it to be the best remedy ever yet discovered. A fair trial will be its best recommendation. Independently of its virtues as a restorative and preventive, it imparts to the hair a fine healthy, glossy appear ance, rendering it soft and flexible, which will make it an invaluable acquisition for the toilet of every one at all desirous of beautifying that great est of adornments of the face—the hair. Returning my most sincere thanks for saving me from premature baldness, by the use of the above Tonic, I am, dear Sir, your obedient servant, L. Rinaldo Sank, No. 108 Walnut st. Copy of a letter from the Rev. C, C. Park, Pastor of the Baptist Church at Haddonfield, N. J. Haddonfield, N. J., Feb. 12, 1539. Dr. D Jayne,—Sir—l lake pleasure in inform ing you that the bottle of Jayne’s Hair Tonic, which 1 obtained of you last October, has proved most satisfactory and successful. My hair had for a long time been exceedingly thin. But for two or three years past it had so fallen out that my head had become almost entirely bald. I was un der the necessity of concealing the baldness by combing the hair on the sides over it. But now, after using about half of a bottle of the “Tonic,” 1 have as luxuriant growth of hair as I ever had. C. C. Park.

Mark A. Cooperto Go vernor McDonald. W ashington, 20th March, 1840. To his Exc'y. Charles J. McDonald, Governor of the State of Georgia: Sir—l had the honor to receive your commu nication of the Blh inst., covering the preamble and resolutions of our legislature, approved the 24th ot December last. These have been for warded to us pursuant to instructions of the Le gislature. They contain a request that their re presentatives here would endeavor “to have the act of Congress, passed on the 12th February, 1793, to carry into effect the second section of the 4th article of the Constitution of the United States, so amended as to authorize the demand ot a fugitive, in the cases contemplated, to be made upon the Circuit Judge of the United States haying jurisdiction in the State wherein such fu gitive may be found. 2dly. To require said Judge,” thereupon to issue his warrant, directed to the Marshal ot the United States in such State, requiring him to arrest the person therein named. 3dly. i’o require said Marshal “forthwith to execute the same. 4thly. To make it obligatory on said District Judge to surrender the fugitive so charged and demanded, to the Executive of the State or Territory where the offence is alleged to have been committed.” A respect at all times due to the opinions and acts of the Legislature of the State we represent, has commanded from me that careful and diligent examination of the subject, which its gravity demands. The evils, which the proposed amendments are designed to remedy, exist in the following state of facts. In May, 1837, a slave named Atticus, the property of James and Henry Sagurs. of Sa vannah, Georgia, was conveyed from Georgia to Maine, by Daniel Philbrook and Edward Kelle ran, citizens of Maine. The former was Master, the latter, Mate, of the schooner Boston. This vessel had recently entered the port of Savannah. On the 1 6th June, of that year, James Sagurs, on his oath, applied for and obtained from a ma gistrate of Chatham county, Georgia, a warrant for the arrest of Philbrook and Kellcran, charged with “a felony under the laws of Georgia;” to wit, that of inveigling, stealing, taking and carry ing away without the limits of the State of Geor gia, the slave Atticus. On this warrant, a re turn of “not to be found in the county of Chat ham,” was made. On the 21st of this month. Governor Schley, of Georgia, demanded of Governor Dunlap, of the State of Maine, the persons of Philbrook and Kellcran, charged with the said offence, as fugi tives from the justice of Georgia. A copy of the affidavit, warrant and return thereon, accompani ed this demand. The demand was made by virtue of that clause of the constitution, to enforce which, federal le gislation is called for. It reads thus: “A person charged in any State with treason, felony or other crime, cvho shall llee from justice, and be found in another Stale, shall, on demand of the Executive authority of vhe State from which he fled, be delivered up, to be remaved to the State having jurisdiction of the crime.”—2 d sec. 4th art. To this demand, Governor Dunlap replied, de clining to cause these fugitives to he delivered up. This act of his was, in December, 1837,declared, by the Legislature of Georgia, to be “dangerous to the rights of the people of Georgia, and direct ly and clearly in violation of the plain letter of the constitution; that the State of Georgia be came a party to the Federal Constitution, no less for the protection of her own, than the common rights and interests of all; and that when these ends are defeated, she is released from the obli gations of that compact; and it has become her right and her duty to provide protection for her people in her own way .” The same resolutions directed the finding of an indictment, which should become the foundation of a renewed demand of those fugitives—which demand being again refused, should make it the duty of the Governor of Georgia to transmit those, resolutions to the Legislature of each State, and to the Senators and Representatives in Congress. They also declarce, that if the Legislature of Maine, at their next session thereafter, should “ neglect to redress the grievances complained of, then that the Executive of Geojgia announce the same by proclamation, and call a convention ol the people to take into consideration the state of the Commonwealth of Georgia, and devise the course of her future policy, and provide all neces sary safeguards for the protection of the rights of her people.” On the 7th February, IS3B, an indicimem against Philbrook and Kelleran, charging them with a felony, was verified by a Grand Jury of Chatham county, Georgia- On the 27th of April thereafter, Governor Gilmer, the successor of Governor Schley, made a demand on Gover nor Kent, the successor of Governor Dunlap. A copy of the indictment, and of the proceedings it was founded on, accompanied this demand. On the 25th of June, Governor Kent declined to deliver up the fugitives, so demanded by virtue of the Constitution and laws of the Union. On the 19th of August, 1839, Governor Gil mer addressed Govern >r Fairfield, the successor of Governor Kent, desiring to know the course Maine had adopted on the subject of the resolu tions of the Legislature of Georgia. He receiv ed for answer, that their Legislature deemed it inexpedient to legislate on the subject, since it belonged to their Executive depgftment. In 1793, Congress passed a law, declaring by whom, on whom, and in what manner, a fugitive from justice, under the 2d sec. 4th article of the United States Constitution, should be demanded, in these words, to-wit: “That whenever the Executive authority of any State in the Union, or of either of the Ter ritories, North, West or South of the river Ohio, shall demand any person as a fugitive from jus tice, of the Executive authority of any such State or Territory, to which such person shall have fled, and shall moreover produce the copy of an indictment found, or an affidavit mode before a magistrate ot any State or Territory as afore said, charging the peison so demanded with hav ing committed treason, felony, or other crime, certified as authentic hy the Governor or chief magistrate of the State or Territory from which the person so charged fled, it shall be the duty of the Executive authority of the State or Territory to which such person shall have fled, to cause him or her to be arrested and surrendered, and no tice of the arrest to he given to the Executive authority making such demand, or to the agent of such authority appointed to receive the fugi tive to be delivered to such agent when he shall appear.” By the laws of Georgia, feloniously taking and carrying away a slave is a crime, punished by confinement at hard labor in the Penitentiary. Under this state of facts, the evil we are under seems to be this: That the property of the peo ple of Georgia may be stolen and carried to a sis ter State with impunity ; That the authorities of the State to which the thief shall flee, will pro tect him agasnst pursuit, and against the justice of Georgia, inthe face of the Constitution. The law of 1793 has been strictly pursued.— ■ If that couid give virtue or validity (o the de mantis of the Governor of Georgia, then was none wanted. Still it appears, the law is disregarded, and the Constitution of the country violated. Are .constitutional obligations weak 1 And have they ceased to be a rule of duty 1 Or is the law of 1793 defective in such particulars as are susceptible of amendments rendering it inef ficient 1 The law is defective in this : It is merely de claratory, carrying no sanction with it. It pre scribes a duty on an Executive of a State, which Congress has not power to do. It is therefore nugatory —not binding on a State, and cannot be made so by an act of this Government. So has the Governor of Maine considered it. This would be true of any law that might be attempt ed on the subject. Could those who passed that law have been ignorant that all laws imposing duties, or commanding an act to be done, are nu gatory or inetheient without a sanction 1 Why then did they not direct what should be done with a State whose Governor might refuse 1 — The only answer is, that they then held, what we now believe, that a State cannot bo coerced, in a case where she exercises the right of judging. But your Excellency and the Legislature think there is an amendment, which this Government is competent to enact, that would he efficient, or might remedy the evil. 0.» this subject I have the misfortune to differ with yourExcellencyar.il the Legislature, in such sort as that duly to those I represent, and to the supreme law I am sworn to support, requires me to decline presenting the resolutions, or attempting to procure the propo sed amendments. You say that the third resolution, “if carried out by an act of the federal legislature, will de prive the authorities of any State of the power of refusing to surrender a fugitive upon dem: ml because the act charged upon him as a crime may not be recognised as a crime in a State or Terri tory to which he may have fled.” The principle here assumed by your Excellen cy, is one I cannot act on. believing, as I do, that Congress cannot deprive the States of any pow er they may have. This stipulation in the 2d sec. 4th art. of the Constitution, is nothing more than an agreement between the State, evidenced by the solemn forms of the federal compart; and os a result of our form of government, the federal power has no authority to enforce it, or punish its violation. Its execution rests with the States’, and will be observed with fidelity,or broken with indifference, according as the State called on may feel or disregard the obligations of her constitu tional engagements. In the case before us, Maine seems not to feel, but to disregard her obliga tions. This, if other parties to the compact were not interested , would probably lead to hostilities, being just cause for war between nations.—With us the effect is the same, unless averted, should the people of our State refuse to submit to this denial of their right of properly. Assuming that the evil arises from a defect of the law of 1793, you propose to alter it so as to require the “ demand” to be made on the judicial officers of this Government, instead of being made on the officers of the State. To enforce the “ de livery” you propose to use the Judge’s warrant in the hands of the U. S. Marshal. And by th« 3d resolution, on which you place so much reli ance, it is proposed, “to make it obligatory on the said District Judge to surrender” the fugitive. In doing this, you must provide that, in his judgment, it is right he should be surrendered*, (or thinking he ought) that the Supreme Court shall not overrule him ; and that the State would first suirentier the man to him, or (refusing) that the President and Congress would give the array and navy to command him into his custody. All these provisos involve important principles, most of which we disavow. Vet they are distinctly couched in the policy of the preamble and reso lutions. Lpon what do they go 1 Evidently on these grounds : That Congress may give to the Fed eral Judges jurisdiction over this subject. 2dly 'l hat the State to be acted on, will snbmit. 3dlv. If she refuse, that the Federal Government will drive her to it. By the preamble it is maintained: That this 2d sec. 4th art. is a “ conventional” agreement between the States; That the “ Sovereign States,” - gave to the Federal Government “all the pow ers necessary and proper,” to regulate their “ in tercourse ; ’ I hat the pursuit and arrest of a “fugitive from justice,” is a part of that inter course And that it is “necessary and proper” that the Federal Government should have the power to do what you propose to ask them to do. h rom these positions, is then asserted the exis tence of such power, and we are thereupon re quested to invoke its aid. This inference of “powers,” by what is deem ed “necessary and proper,” when no power is specified or enumerated, is at variance with the idea of limited and delegated “ powers.” It is therefore repudiated. I cannot conceive that the “intercourse” to be regulated by this Government, between the “Sov ereign Stales, can properly be alleged to refer to> the demand of a fugitive from justice, guilty of 14 treason’ for cxampls., This would be mere “ sovereignty” in its most essential point. This “conventional” agreement is required by the terms of it, to be carried out by the Stales, or their authorities. They have the right to say who those authorities shall be, ai.d under their sense of obligation and duty, to judge when au. alleged fugitive shall be delivered. By the Constitution, no jurisdiction is given to the Federal Courts over this subject. By a law of Congress you cannot give it; and if you could, it would not be oesirahle. This jurisdiction cannot be inferred from the specification in regard to controversies between States, “since it is to prevent a controversy that you would give this power to the Federal Judae, and thereby deprive the State of the power to re fuse, Controversies like this are not within the meaning of the Constitution. I he protection, of the citizen is first due frem the Stale; and to her his allegiance is primaiiiy to be paid. Any law changing this telation, un provided for by the Constitution, is void. In making it “ obligatory ” on a Circuit Judgs to have the fugitive surrendered, on a demand made of him by the Executive of a State or Ter ritory, is it not perceived that you bring that Go vernment politically in collision with one State, at the instance of another 1 Was this ever con templated 1 Give the Judge the power necessa ry to fulfil hits obligations, and do you not sub jugate the State ? Without that power,, is not the law as inefficient as it now is I When no resistance could be made to the Federal Court it is not to be supposed the State would refuse to deliver at the demand of a State^ But by giving this power to the Circuit Judge,, thus to deprive a State of the power to refuse, you. necessarily give him the power to decide adverse to the demand- Can you suppose that he who. is educated into all the prejudices and sympathies ol those around him, residing in the community ofyour adversaries, sharing their bounty, and partaking daily of their hospitality, possibly call ed to ofliLe from party considerations—could fail to be influenced, by the same arguments, mo tives, and incentives, which have induced the
