A Very Important Case.
The Washington Star says: One of the most im
portant cases ever brought up for adjudication by
the Supreme Court is now being tried before that
august tribunal No. 61, Drea Scott, plaintiff in
error, as. John F. A. Sanford. Mr. Montgomery
Br air for tho plaintiff in p w,p . «nd tlm Hon
Messrs. Gf.yee and IlEVEiinr Johnson for the de
fendant in error. The poiats particularly in issue
are, first, the right of citizens of slaveholding
States to carry their slaves into non-slaveholding
States for a temporary sojourn there, without the
loss of their right of property in .such slaves; and
next, the constitutionality of the Missouri compro
mise, as involved in the question of the right of
Congress to legislate with reference to slavery in
United States Territories.
Scene in the Georgia Senate.
An interesting episode occurred in the Senate
on Saturday afternoon, in the debate on the bill for
the sale of the Western and Atlantic Railroad.
Our Reporter gives but a faint sketch of it, though
it is substantially correct as far as it goes.
When the provision prohibiting citizens north of
Mason and Dixon’.-, line from taking stock in the
proposed Western and Atlantic Railroad Compa
ny nas under consideration, Mr. Rope made an
impassioned and spirit stirring appeal ;• the pa
triotism and conservatism of the South, not to in
corporate such a feature in its policy. He de
nounced it as sectional, illiberal, and impolitic.
He referred to the true and tried national men of
the North, friends of the Constitution, and suppor
ters of the equal rights of the South in the Union.
He argued that the same iutluenees which had in
duced Northern men to vote for the Nebraska-
Kansas acts, by which the Missouri restriction was
obliterated, and these Territories opened to the
equal participation will l the North in its settle
ment were still at work in the North, and were
gaining strength there -that a healthy re-ac
tion was going on in our favor, and in belialt
of constitutional principles, and that at this
lime an attempt to revive geographical lines,
and increase sectional animosities, would come
with an ill grace from a Southern State—from
the State of Georgia, which had warmly ap
proved of the abrogation of that sectional division,
the Missouri compromise line —which the Nebras
ka-Kansas bill accomplished. He spoke of Gen.
Pierce in terms of commendation as a President
who had proved himself a national man, and
sound and reliable on tbe question of slavery. He
bad proved himself a friend to those Constitution
al rights so vitally dear to the South, and urged
that while he discharged so nobly the duties of his
high position, the South should fed it to be her
pride and her duty to strive to soothe the sectional
irritation tbai was unhappily prevailing. The pro
vision under consideration was a step towards a
dissolution of the Confederacy and intestine strife,
li should be the aim of every Georgian who loved
his country, to seek to avert that result s» long as
it could be done consistently with the rights and
honor of our State and section.
At the allusion to President Pierce, the Sena
tor’s on the Democratic side could not be restrain
ed. hut responded w ith plaudits which were caught
up in the lobby and gallery, in a wav to show un
mistakably how warmly the conduct of President
Pier e was approved, and how strong was his hold
on too admiration of those present, liven some ol
the opposite side of the Senate indicated their sym
pathy with the prevalent feeling.
Senator Wklbokn, of Whitfield, in reply, sta
led that if the exercise of the privilege by Georgia
of specifying to whom she would prefer to sell her
property, and whom she would exclude from the
list of purchasers, should be visited upon Iter with
war and all its horrors, he would exclaim, let it
coil)?.
As the Sen-nor from Whittield is understood to
be :i Minister of ilie Gospel, a fact to which Judge
t 'onc alluded in reply, the latter undertook to read
a lecture to the* Reverend Senator for uttering sen
timents so little in unison with the teachings of
his Divine Master, a- disclosed in the New Testa
ment, abook with which the Judge declared himself
well acquainted. Mi Welbobn, interrupting, said
he did not know, before, the grave Senator, whose
head was whitened by sixty^winters, had become a
B -hop; to which the Judge replied, that though
not a Bishop, he knew a great deal more of the
Bible thau many of the Priests.
lie then made an appeal against sectional divis
ions and lines drawn by unfriendly legislation—
deprecated war as not only the greatest of calam
ities. but as the greatest wickedness and foil)
He expressed a hope that even in the short rem
nant of his days, he should c ee a Congress of na
tions organized to settle peacefully all disputes and
controversies.
He, also, expressed a belief that a great and
healthy reaction was going on in the public mind
at the North, in favor of the Constitution—
that the mass of the people there, had been deluded
by politicians for the purpose of gaining oilice and
power, that it had succeeded in giving such men
as Banks the Speaker’s Chair, but the people were
now arousing up to the dangers to which this ex
citement were lending, and would yet come hack
to their fidelit) to the Constitution.
He complimented President Piste s for his pa
triotic C ■ irse, and expressed his confidence in his
- lundness. He said the South could safely trust
jio vast interests in his keeping, as the chief mag
istral ?of this great Union. But the provision
of the bill under discussion declared lie could not
be trusted by Georgia to hold stock in the Western
and Atlantic railroad. He showed up the absurdi
tv of such a position, and appealed to Senators to
adopt a comprehensive and patriotic policy, which
embraced the whole Union as our cotnutou coun
try, and to move on in the peaceful progress of the
great destiny that was before u- as a .treat nation.
In conclusion he exclaimed, 1 am for America now
ami America forever.
lie denied, in reply to Mr. Wkllbob.v, that he
had denounced Gen. Fieri k as unsound, but had
stud be did not like some of his appointments.
\t e have noticed this debate, or this portion of
it, for two reasons, one to notice the compliment
paid President Pierce, and the warm manner in
which it was received. For the hall again re
sounded with applause when Judge Conk eu
logized the President. The other, to do justice
to Mr. Wellborn, who, though advocating
the exclusion of stockholders from the North,
did not express sentiments inconsistent with
a Christian faith and a peaceful spirit. He
said, in efi'eet, he would welcome war and all its
horror*, if forced upon us, for having exercised
our unquestionable rights.
Isaac D’Lton, a worthy and popular
citiien ot •'savannah, died in that citv on Saturday
last.
