there in force, regardless of those of Maine. If lie could carry the latter with hini, then in Pennsylvania her citizens would enjoy one class of privileges, and those coming from the thirty other StateM would enjoy those brought with them from Raid Btatcs. That uhl "Commonwealth would present the extraordinary spectacle of having thirty-one different sets of privileges and immunities in operation ut the same time. Those from sluve Slates might insist upon the privilege enjoyed at home of owning and controlling tlaves. Such a construction of the clause in question would destroy her sovereignty, and place it at the mercy of other States. It would put independent State sovereignties at the mercy of those who might choose to import the privileges and immunities elsewhere permitted. Kucha construction would end in confusion and anarchy, exactly what the constitution designed to avoid. The construction contended for would place the circuit courts where their jurisdiction depends up citizenship at tho control of the several States, instead of the constitution and laws of the United States. If Congress should define who are citizens of the United States, and entitled to sue in the circuit court, and declare that only white persons could be such, this construction would defeat inch la*v, and permit even slaves to sue therein. The institutions of the United States are not thus at the mercy of the States. If the power to invest with citizenship is conferred hy this provision, then it can only be done by States, and not by Congress or a Territory. It follows that it could not have been done by the Compromise act fl that act had in terms conferred citizenship upon free blacks instead of being silent npOu that subject. If the argument used in this case is sound, it would not constitute Scott a citizen of a State, because neither Illinois, Missouri, nor any other Stato lms declared manumitted slaves to he citizens. Becoming a "citizen of a Territory" did not luring him within this provision ; but if it did, it has been repeatedly held that neither a citizen of a Territory nor of this District could sue in a circuit court when the jurisdiction depended upon citizenship. The decision of the court rests upon broad grounds, while thoso who question its correctness do so upon principles which are not, in fact, involvod ; bul, if they were, would destroy the confederacy. The minority of the court construe the provision in question with reference to circumstances which now exist in a limited number of States, wholly regardless of those which led to its introduction into the constitution. They seek to give it a meaning that was never intended, and never attributed to it until recently, when the necessities of politicians perverted it. It is conceded thtft the several States have the exclugive control of overy interest within their limits which is not committed to tiro federal government hy the constitution, or controlled by those principles of right which are the common law of the world, and sanctioned by those laws of God which all authorities respect. I)..' -I - nwOmril,, nril.? niaOu l.nvA l)Ul llic I'Wirci. ...m ........?..? their limits in the principles of right and wrong, or in the federal constitution. They cannot force into the courts of the United States those whom they nay choose to denominate citizens, but who are not in fact "citizens of the United States," nor prevent citizens of the United States within their limits from doing so by withholding any action of theirs. Judge furtis assumes that there is a difference betwecu the powers of a State in cases where a person is lioru within or without its limits, and asserts that she may make a citizen of the former, although she cannot of the latter. No such rule is found in the constitution of the United States, nor in that of a State. A State cannot naturalize aliens sous Iomake "citizens of the United States," but it has precisely the same power over all within her limits to make ihem State citizens, or to confer or withhold from them privileges and immunities, ife says that a State cannot "take persons horn on the soil of another State, and contrary to the laws and policy of the State where they were born, make thorn its citizens, and citizens of the United States." Certainly it cannot make such incomers, or any one else, citizens of the United States, because no such power is conferred upon any State. But it degrades a Stato to assume that. it cannot make a State citizen out of a man born out as woll as if born within its limits. No authority for such a distinction is found in the federal constitution; and if it really exists, it must emanate from the institutions of the State. He ?ays " whatever powers the States may exerciso to confer privilege of citizenship on persons not born on their soil, the constitution of the I'nited States does not recognise such citizens." Nowhere in the constitution is any such distinction found, which is without any foundation in any act of Congress,and is wholly inapplicable under our peculiar institutions; but, on the contrary, no State can confor United States citizenship upon any one, wherever born or residing. To escape palpable absurdities, a theory has been urged upon the courts which has no foundation in our constitution. But, according to the judge's own reasoning, his conclusions are wfong, because Scott was neither horn in Illinois nor in the ferritory of Wisconsin, and therefore neither the State "or Territory could make him a citizon, there being uo law in either by which manumission would make him one. New theories adopted to secure particular conclusions and consequences always end iu ultimate disappointment. Those originating in plain, commonsenm' vi.ivva (I,.,,,,,! 1,v I..T,r? ,->f i 11 toll iirnii t ....... patriotic, and universal practice, are far more likely to be right and lead to constitutional results. No judicial trihanal can commit a more fatal error than to exercise doubtful jurisdiction. In the present caso the court lawfully held that, the circuit court had no jurisdiction, whether Scott was a slave or had been asnumitted, and properly reversed the judgment for cost* rendered against hint hy a tribunal having jurisdiction over him. That he was a slave, and not scitizen, is cleat beyond controversy, and will be *o considered by all who will examine the case with refereuco to the principles involved, instead of following impulses and prejudice ; and so the Americ*n people will determine.

INCITING TO WOT. Til It will scarcely bo credited abroad that a meeting I waa held in thin city oil Tuesday evening last for the purpose ofsustainuig mob spirit und excusing murder ; and, to tax the credulity of the ditttant reader still fur- 1 titer, wo may add that tho gettcr?-up of this mooting, . as well as several of the persons who addressed it, occupy respectable positions in the community, and 'j have, or supposed to have, some interest iu the ule maintenance of the laws and tho preservation of the Bra peace. The meeting is thus briefly noticed in tho lult telegraphic correspondence of the Baltimore Sun: !^ " Washington, June 2.?A large meeting was held to- ! night in front of the City Hull in regard to tiie riot. The " shakers were General McC&lla, Dr. Clayton, Council- I ' man Lloyd, all of tiie American party, who spoke of the wb killing of iHirnoiiH by the murine* on the day of election wo< as a cruel, cowardly, aud hloody massacre of the inno- j,ro cent, und of tiie conduct of the executive authorities as ( a trampling under foot of the sacred rights of citizens und ^ of law and order. 'Mr. Lloyd's advice to be prepared for the next at- ',ru tack elicited spontaneous ciieers of upprotkation. At tiie all same time lie invoked tliem to preserve the peace. A |mjv committee of two from each ward was up[>oinLxt to pre- gju {tare suitable resolutions and call an adjourned meeting | after the inquest on all tiie victims lias been concluded." Let us take a hasty glance at the dreadful occur- ^y rences of Monday last. On that day an election was ofi held in this city for municipal officers. There were Art two tickets in the field : the one supported by the know-nothings, and the other by the Union party, allt composed of democrats and old-line vyhigs. The j ( polling proceeded, ami on all sides it is conceded run that the L'nion men were actuated by a sincere tie- sea sire that the election should bo conducted in a the peaceable and equitable manner, and that all who ywl ... ... . . tilt' and maintained. the And yet Mr. Lloyd tells his hearers to l?e prepared * for the next attack. What does this counsel mean if wie it does not mean, "Arm yourselves ! cut, slab, shoot down citizens peaceably and lawfully exercising one mm of their dearest privileges ; and if the military are casi called out to stay your bloody, murderous work, see ' that you have arms enough and ammunition enough to make a successful resistance." . Mr. Lloyd, and all who think with Mr. Lloyd, will 'j soon discover, if they have not already discovered, Yoi that the time has gone by in this city when such ad- s?n vice can be safely given or successfully followed. (' We have more faith in the prevention than the put- ? c ting down of mobs ; and the inciters of riots cannot nec be too soon taught that they are as much amenable / to the law as if they actually took part with their and wretched tools and dupes.

With what fidelity they . '' carried out the infamous instructions of their em nft ployers, last Monday's bloody work will fully attest, y.' In a few hours after their arrival the whole city was bin completely at the mercy of a mob.

Having for many yearn exerted my best eflort-t to bring Mr iuchunan iulo the presidential chair. I shall render to him and to his j dmiuistruUou all the aupport which party tied aud persoual friend hip can inspire A great crisis in the affaire of the country -a crisis ' 'ought with peril aud danger to the rights of the Htules and the |>er UUisory of the I'nioo- demonstrated to the national democracy und I le patriotic |K'ople of the country that his acknowledged talents, ma ired wisdom, approved statesmanship, and long experience, were no canary to their peace and safety, and they placed him, with aoelumu on*, at the liead of the government aud the nation. He realized at j nee their hopes and expectation* by calling lo his assistance a cabiuet f men combining the rarest qualifications of talents, experience, and I LaU Htnaiiship?men endeared to the democratic party by all their nil j vedeiiU; by thu zeal which they had displayed and the service* j Inch they had rendered in some of the most honorable offlcos of the Mitttry. in hup|*>rting and sustaining the principles, the measures, and ie jioltcy of our porty. A few tvoeks has sufficed to till every patri lie heart in the land w ith confidence and hope. Even his political : unices seem to rcs|>ect him. fanaticism itself appears willing for a j lomeiil to modcrute its tone: and the enemies of our peace, of the [institution, and the l'nion will not be aide much longer to disturb the ubllo mind by their fanatical shriek* and troosoagble agitation, largo as tiie circulation of the Union is, it falls l'ar short of those augorous fanatical sheets that are literully spread broadcast over the 00 tftute.-, and which find their way in lurge numbers In too many of H* southern Slate*. As an antidote to the (Kdsou of these publications, ur friends should be zealous in extending tbe circulation of tbe (7Won. hose who huvo boon plocod in offices of profit by democratic votes >totiId aid in circulating democratic journals; and to postmasters in articular wo confidently look for active oo oporatiou In our present Hurts to place u copy of the Daily, Weekly, or Semi-Weekly Union k tin? hands of every former, mechanic, and working man in the xmtry. The subscription price of the Daily Union U ten dollars per annum he Tri Weekly (published semi weekly during the recess of Congress) 1 live dollars per annum, and enntaius all the reading matter which iqicars in the Dally. The Weekly Union Is furnished to subscribers at w low rule of one dollar pcr annum, and is Justly regarded as tbe tn ajs'st political ]wper In the world. It Is a large aud handsomely rinted sheet, und eontaius as tnuoh reading mutter in the course of a Afolvemonth tut would make twelve, ordinary octavo volume*. It will be >utid to iMMsess the udvantuges of l>oth a political and a family uewsaper. The most important i?olitleal articles of the dally issue are . ousferred to the weekly, and during the sitting of Congress a careful bstract of the daily proceedings of the two houses is prepared cxluslvelv for Us columns. U contains, besides all Important State |?u- 11 ers of the year, electiun returns from every State in the L'nion, ( wrespoudonoo, a full summary of foreign aud domestic news, and * ora week to week such information in regard to the agricultural, lauufucturing, and commercial interest* of the country us will he 1 uiml, it is believed, of particular value. That the Weekly Union Is appreciated in the most substantial maner by democrats In every section erf tho Vulon, no better evidence' eod he desired Mum is furnished by iW rapidly-Increasing circulation, nthin eighteen months twenty thousand new names have been added to le subscription list, and, with the slightest exertion on the part of our lends, its circulation cnu be increased to one hundred thousand coles before the close of the year. "Will our friends exert themselves? ' f the value of tho Weekly Jfayw t? Correct misrepresentations, expose ilsehood, dispel error, and to bring before tho people the principles nd measures of the democratic party in all their simplicity, purity, ad abiding strength, we have testimony, us abundant as it is flutterig, from nearly every congressional district in the United States, his testimony is of itself the strongest argument which could l?0 OflTercl of the necessity of promptly extending tip) upbore of us conceded scfulucss. I make thjs appeal nut from the selfish considerations of ( ecuulary gain?as the subscription price of the Weekly Union is so ?w as to barely cover the cost of printiug and tho white |Miper?hut urn motives which I thiuk will he understood aud appreciated by emocrats everywhere. ]n conclusion, I desire to say a few WWl* |p subscribers, and to job as n*ay hei>o%f|er become subscribers. There to now ow ing to ic Union establishment upwards of seventy thousand dollars for hack inscriptions. These enormous arrearages are the result of the credit frstcin.
