KOSTETTEtrc I I' n, 41 In 2 Black's Bepo;eis, page Gtio, may ye iouna tne report ot tne "prize cases' arguea ana decided in the su preme court of the United States at the December term of 1862. The opinion of the court, delivered by Air. Justice Grier of Pennsylvania, and the dissenting opinion, delivered by Mr. Justice Nelson of New York, both reported at length, give the history otine Beverai cases and the questions raised and decided in each of them. It "vrill be f ceu by reference to these opinions that the great and vital question, applicable to all the cases was whether the United States had the rights of a belligerent in the war declared and prosecuted agamst them by the southern states, then confed erated in rebelb'on. Littlo did the people of the loral states know, when the court was in private consultation on this question in the early part of the year 1863, that our national exist ence was depending upon the decision of nine judges, and that it was saved by tUbfvoteof one man. That page in the history of the rebellion has never been written, and I propose to write it now. The sunreme court of the TTniffvl States at the December term of 1862, ub composea oi nine judges as r u lows: Chief Justice Kebert T. Tanev. of Maryland; Justices James T. Wayne, of Georgia; John Oatron, of Tennessee; Samuel Nelson, of Now York; Bobert C. Grier, of Pennsyl vania: Nathan Clifford, of Maino- Noah M. Swayne, of Ohio; Samuel F. Miller, of Ohio; David Davis, of -uunois. President Lincoln, as the chief exe cutive or the government - and commander-in-chief of the army and navy, bad declared and notified a blockade of the seceded states in the month of April, 186L Not long uiterwaros, an J&ngiisu hart, a .Mexi can schooner and two vessels owne'd in Biohmond, Va., were severallv cap tured by ships of the United States government and brought into port as prizes. They were libelled together with their respective cargoes on be half of their captors and of the United oiures, ana in eacu case there was a decree of condemnation in the dis trict court. The claimants of the vessels and cargoes appealed to the supreme court, and thus the question was raised impeaching the validity of the blockade and the rights of the government in the war then uendinrr Every judge on the bench knew and appreciated the momentous import ance of those questions. hey knew that a decision adverse to the claims of the government would almost certainly result in the irretrievable ruin of the country. It would be a -. declaration to all the world by the supreme court of the' cision from the country for nearly nine months was finally 'defeated. It only remained now to appoint a member of the court to write and deliver the opinion. The chief No tice assigned Justice "Wayne to that duty. He was an aged man, in verv feeble health, and, whatever might have been the motive that inspired the appointment, it was npitl.r a kind one nor a proper one, Justice Grier came to his rescne. Ho rn-i minded the chief justice that, as lie was not in accord with the mninritv of the court, it was not his nlnee f say who should write the opinien: that Justice Wayne was the senior associate in the majority, and it was for him to say who should perform that duty. By his appointment, the opinion was written and delivered In- Judge Grier, vindicating the course ot .rreaident Liincolu, and confirming the claim of the government to the rights of a belligerent without a for mal declaration of war against the states in rebellion.

This was all the south wanted. It was all that anvbodv wanted from the supreme court, who aesireu to see the union finally and lorever uestroyea ana an independ ent empire of slavery and cotton con trolling the commerce and destinv of wnat an English statesman was pleased to designate during the war as "the late United States." When the nine judges met in se cret consultation after the argument of counsel, the fact was developed that Chief Justice Taney, Justice Catron, Justice Nelson and Justice Clifford were prepared to decide the! question against me government They were ready with an opinion, ea aa tue opinion oi the court, without the knowledge of some of their associates, that Presi dent Lincoln bad no power to recog nize the existence of the rebellion ns a war within the meaning of the law of nations; had no power to blockade the southern ports, and that the cap turesfor breach of blockade or as enemies' property were consequently illegal and void, and that the decrees of condemnation should bo reversed and the vessels and cargoes restored to their owners.

That in timacy saved the nation. Judge Wayne voted with his friend, and the court stood five in favor of the gov ernment, and four against it. Defeated and vexed by this unex pected result, the chief justice sought to secure the final adjournment of the court for the terra without an an nouncement ot its decision. He per suaded Justice Wayne to consent to ih uuu uis Tore in its favor -would carry the scheme through. Put be fore that question was settled Justice Wayno told his friend what he had agreed to do. JuBtiee Grier imme diately denounced the proposed sup pression of the opinion of the oonrt pointed out the fatal results to the national cause whjeh would almost certainly flow from it, and induced Justice Wayne to retract the promise he had made to the chief jnsfioe xnuB inu aevica to withhold the Were wnr (Ipnlniwl to-morrow it would be fought out Delivered in any Part ot the Citv ou our Polish plains, and we should J ",l Ul ",B u,lJ CHRISTMAS CAKES: suffer doubly.
