ough not by this Quaker defendant. Ante, p. 325. But Kossuth's utterances, proceeding from a narrow and selfish patriotism, were equally Pickwickian, and he was now moving naturally in a world of burlesque and opera bouffe, with only occasional glimpses of sober reality. He came to America asking intervention on behalf of—nonintervention; and he referred to the pro-slavery invasion and spoliation of a neighboring State as the glorious struggle you had not long ago with Mexico, in which General Scott drove the President of the Republic from his capital. Lib. 22.2.

The opening number of the twenty-seventh von, delivered by the U. S. Supreme Court on March 6, through the mouth of Chief-Justice Taney.

Scott and his wife were sold to a common owner, and returned voluntarily—or at least without resistancr, and a third out of the United States, and are frightened when its intentions are exposed. Scott's suit was dismissed for want of jurisdiction, the power of the State court in the premises beins sojourn in the former, but depended upon the law of the latter. As, by the law of Missouri, Dred Scott was Lib. 27.45. not a citizen, but still a slave, he could not sue in a United States court.
