Superior Court.
The Spring Terra of our Superior

merely to denounce us, and the main

the blessings of a Constitutional Union.

A Fugitive Slave Law.
The National Intelligencer says : It
is a rurious fact, not generally known,
tnat iew Jersey has a fugitive skve
law of her own, enacted in 1793, and
re-enacted with modifications in 1836
and i.'jiO. Ihe slaveholder or his
agent can apply to a common pleas
judge, and the arrest will be made by
the sheriff', and the question of property
decided by three judges. New Jersey
has also a law authorizing a slaveholder
to take his slaves through the State,
and to make a temporary resid-ence
with them.
