Slavery in Kansas. --A case came up before Judge Pettit, yesterday, in the District Court for the Territory, which involved the constitutionality of the anti-slavery bill passed by the Legislature last winter. A negro woman, named Fanny, claimed by Horace Haley as a slave, left his custody some time ago, and went to live at the house of F. R. Foard.--Haley petitioned to recover possession of the "property," and Foard demurred, on the ground that Fanny was not a slave, as stated in the petition. The case was argued by Lecompte, Matthias and Burns, for the plaintiff; and J. O. Douglas, Esq., for the defendant.--Judge Pettit overruled the demurrer, and decided that the law prohibiting slavery in Kansas was not constitutional.--Leavenworth Times, Jan. 1.
