TH E E AG LE [ A. J. HILL, Editor. DEO ATUR, INDIANA. i ■“ 11 " 1 i FRIDAY, January ».», ISG7. TflE -MAN AND BROTHER.” In Maryland an old statute provides ; that negroes shall be sold for any felony , committed by them. Under this statute i several negroes were recently convicted i and sold. Instead ot sending them to ' the penitentiary as they would whitemen, they were sold to some citizen with i whom they are r> quired to work cut their aintenee. This is regarded by radi-■ cals as one of the gravest indignities '.bati cjuld be heaped upon tie colored race. , and was immediately made the subject, inquiry by the Sumner Stevens loy-| •lie’s. In North Carolina, for the same of- i fence, Sambo is sent to the whipping j post, instead of the penitentiary. A radical journal represents this en'orce- i m»nt of an old law of North Carolina [ as sacrificing the freedmen to ths ancient law o' slavery. Whipping a couple of negroes in North Carolina for the commission of felonies is immediately made lue subject of congressional inquiry. The whipping ol a tew hundred of white girls in Massachu- : setts for violations of school deseiplino, is pn«sed by unnoticed by the same | champions of civiliz ition. Legislation for the irrepressible nrgro is progressing. The Goddess of Liberty is gradually gathering vp their rights, and restoring them to the suble knights in their original purity. It the indus-1 trious virgin progresses much further in that lire, legislation will give the gentle ; African all the rights, priviligea, and immunities, that superstition does the •send cattle of Brahma. ~Great is Dianna of the Ephs sites,” bat gr-ater is Thad Stevens Dinah. ■ - ■ —— —— >S> . ■ ■ II —■» INDIANA LDGISLATURE. The radicals at Indianapolis have cut on', a large amount of work, but whether they will g«t it completed orn-.t icmatns to be seen. Ths perpetuity of party de- , minded their serious consideration, an J ; was among the first things to which the atur.tioa of the General Assembly ws*' directed. As ths radicnle have a two- [ thirds majority tn both branches, they thought it very necessary to introduce a bill to prevent bolting, and thus ensure s guan turn euflicit of radical legislation, by pteven'ing Democrat* from following j the illustrious example set them by the i m-n who are now attempting the passage | of the bill. If 'hey succeed in passing i the bolting bill, they will proceed Io! wipe one the thirleen'b article of the • constitution; ro district the State with a i view of keeping a ra'ical majority in the , General Assembly, while being them-! reives larg-Iy in the minority, besides ! rarions ether partisan measures which | for the present we are unable to notice. ■ Tn this emergency the Democratic ' members of the General Assembly have n duty to perform which we hope they will not sh r ink from, and that is prevent the passage of thrso ra licxl measures. Li t them in a united body present the radicals with their ultimatum; withdrew your radical m»a'urps or we will i Isave you without :i quorum. And. on , the other hand, announce their willing- > n»ss to attend to any and ail needful legisla.ion. in the absence of strictly partisan ! measures. This mar .seem like strong language, ■ hut radical measur** must be met upon radical grounds. Men who disregard ; •nd set a<-id<- laws and constitutions as if they were mere cobwebs, must be m-t with n cans quite a« arbitrary as they . rmploy, and we believe men do less than 'heir duty who do not employ every ■ advantage that can b« ustd to bold them J in check.

Supreme Court Decision. Washington, January 14. ■ Associate Justice Field to-day, deliv. i • ered an opinion in the United States Sup- i ,[ reme Court, in Missouri, in the case of A. Sun mas a Roman Catholic priest, , who was preaching and teaching without i taking the oath required by the Consti-1 tution ol the State. He being plaintiff lin error, the Court decides the oath, in i this case, unconstitutional. The judgment of the courts below was j reversed with directions that the plantiff j shall depart without delay. Associate Justice Field also delivered [an opinion of court in the ex parte case ■ot Garland and More, for .taking part in ■ the rebellion, and who ask to be remitted ;to the practice of the law. The court ; held that as the statute imposes punishment which may not have been imposed [al the time the offence was committed; iitis in its nature, an ex post facto, law [ attoinneys arc not officers of the United I States; they are officers ol the courts, and hold their offices during their good i behavior. The court is not the register ; of edicts of any other power The applicants who obtained a pardon from President Johnson are rel'eved I from the consequences of their offences and makes a citizen in the eye of the law, I what he was before it was committed. ■ Doapresa can not limit the prerogative ol mercy. If the court be filtered by legislative restriction, it followed that the prayer cf the petitioner must bei granted, and also the prayer of Mr. Marr. The rule which requiresjattorneys to take the test oath, mnst be received. Associate Justic Miller, for bimsslf, Chief Justice and Associate Swayne and Davis read the dissenting opinion, main i taining that the practice in courts as a privilege, attorneys are eubject to legis i lation the same as budges. The law 1 makes no distinction, but requires all. civil and military officers to take some | oath. Attorneys exert a marked influence on the character of the Govern , ment, if all attorneys in the South had been faithful to their allegiance, as they are raqired to swear, we should have 1 I been spared the horrors of rebellion; it , was rot claimed by the majority of the [court that law works an attainder of I blood; therefore this is not a bill of attainder, nor does it appear to convict any designated persons, or declare the punishment of persons who arrayed themselves in hostillity to the Government and gave aid and comfort to the enemy, i nor that they forfeited their right to appear in court. This was not a wrimnal but a civil procetding, which affected private rights rwtro-pectively. With regard >0 the Missouri case the question ; involved rested with the State. The i constitutional restriction that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom 1 [of religion was not applicable. Justice i Story says that the whole power was 1 ‘ 'eft to the State, to be exercised accord- [ ing to its judgment. The Constitution I , of Missouri says that no such persons as , are deserbed shall exercise their tunci '.ions, unbss they show their loyalty. [ These cases were quoted in support of ! these points. j II is understood the President to-day nominated Senator Cowan as Minister tn I Austria, " hr Committee on Territories instrucJ ted Mr. /shley to report his amendment I to t> e bill to reestablish civil govermrent io North Carolins. • the total receipts of internal revnnue ; since the Ist of January is $175,471,184 ilt is said the entire receipts of the year . will vxtede all the estimates by twenty or thirty million dollarsIt appears from the official document ' that nearly six millions dollars was collected in the First District of Illinois during last year. In nine months cf last year 284,496 persons arivtd in the United Slates from foreign countries. c Horrible Butchery nt Valparaiso. A terible tragedy oemred about five miles north-east of Valparaiso. Indiana [ last night. A young m m named Chauncey Tag*, had a difficulty with his wife- | wlome he had left about a year ago and in ti e Di-nn'itne the bad applied fur a ! divorce. He visited her yekteday and found 1 that she, with her mother and a hind i girl, would be alone that night. He went to Valparaiso but returned ab?ut 10 o'clock, desiring admitance, ‘•Being asked who was there, he said ; ] Page.” His wife replied that it wes t'-o[ , late to recieve company. He then dash- ■ !cd down the door, and, as Mrs. Long, ; his wife's mother, was coming toward i ; him to open the door, he fired nt her ! with a revolver, when she fell pleading . I for her life

He then psssed to another room where Lis wife and the girl were. Hts wife havmg sprung out of b-<l, he caught her by the arm, »nd, pointing. the revolver at ler head, shot her dead. The girl being covered closely he did not at first observe her but, seeing her feet uncovered, he dragged her Ironr the bed, shooting her four different time*, none of the shots proving fatal. He then pounded her head with a wooden ehair until be supposed her dead, and then set fire to the house.

The girl, however, recovered suffle enti iy to get out of the house before the fire rei-chrd her. The house was burned to the ground. Mrs. Long’s body was nearly all consumed, while a shsptless trunk is all that remains of the wife. The girl is horribly mangled, but may recover.
