MARYLAND. the Arprontice Habeas Corpus it aver Batrmmona, October 16, 1867. In the United States Circuit Court, yesterday, a hear- tog was had before Chief Justice Chase upon the poti- tion of Elizaboth Turner (colored), by her next friend, Charies Henry Minaky, addressed to the Hon. Salmon P, Chase, Chief Judge of the Circuit Court of the Uaited States, in and for the Marylaud district, The petitioner alleges that she is the child of Elizabeth Minaky, for- merty Elizaboth Turner; that she is restrained of her Mberty by Philemon T. Hambleton, Talbot county, Maryland, in violation of the constitution and laws of the United Staten; also that petitioner ts restrained of her liberty by virtue of certain alleged indentures of apprenticeship made notim accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland Petitioner. requiring him to produce in court the person of the peti- tloner and to certity the true cause of ber detention, and to show come, if any he has, why petitioner should not be discharged. The petition is signed by H. Stockbridge and Nathan M. Pusey, attoracys for petitioner. ‘The petition was fied Seprember 20, and endorsed :— “Writ granted as prayed, returnat Pp ona 136%, “Chief Justice of the United States."” ‘The master, P. T. Hambleton, made the following ro- turo to the writ:— “In obedience to the command of the within writ I herewith produce the body of Elizabeth Turner, together with a copy of the indenture of apprenticeship, showing the cause of her caption and detention aud respectfuiy ‘await the action of your Honor.’’ ‘The petitioner appeared b; Tue Chief Justice prichert Beas pe the respondent if he had counsel in court. He replied in the negative and said he would let the matter be setiied by the Court, The Chief Justice stated tuat he would prefer that the ago should be tully argued. The respondent stated shat the child and its mother were lormerly hie siaves, aod were set free by tbe con- stitution which went into operation November 1, 1864, The child was appreaticed November 3, 1804, two days after she was emancipated. The iaw of Conxress called the Civil Rights bili was parsed since the child was in- dentured, April 9, 1466, and everybody told him that She law did not interfere with this case. The Chief Justice said the questions in the case were So grave and important that be wished 10 be advised by the argument He would of counsei on the part of the claimant. journo the court until to duy ut nine o’c ok, the claimant, or any person i.. terested an opportunity te appear. appeared he would cispose of the cage. ‘The court conveued at nine o'ciock thts morning, when the Chict Justice delivered the following de- cision :— the petittoner in this case seoks relief from restraint and detention by Philemon T, Hampieton, of Talbot county, in Maryland, tn alleged contravention of the con- stitution and laws of the United States. Tho facts as they appear from the return made by Mr, Hambleton to the writ, and by bis verba. statement made ‘9 court and admitted as part of the return, are substantially as tol- lows:—The petitioner, Elizabeth Turner, 8 young person of color, and her mot! were, prior to the adoption of the Maryland constitution of 1864, slaves of the respond- ont. That constitution went into operation November 1, 1864, and prohibited slavery, Almost immediately there- after many of the freed poople of Talbot county were colected together under some local authority, tho na- ture of which does not clearly appear, aad the younger persons were bound as apprentices. emai if pos ways, to their lato masters, Among others, Elizabeth, petitioner was apprenticed to Hambleton by au in- ture dated on the 3d of November, two days after thi ion went into operation. Upvn comparing the jndenture, which is claimed to uave beeu exccused under tbe Inw of Maryland rotating to negro apprentices, with those required by the law of Maryland iu indenture for the apprenticeship of white persons the variance is manifest. The petitiouer, under this inden- ture, is not entitled to any educatio white appron- tice must be taught reading. writing and aritimetic, ‘The petitioner is linbie to be assigned and transferred at the wiil of the master to any person in the same county. ‘The whive apprentice is not thus tiable, The authority of the masier over tne petitioaer is described in the law a8 @ property and intersat; no ench description applied to autbority over a whito apprentice. It is un- necessary to question other particulars. Such it the case. IT regret l have been obliged to consider it with- ous the beneft of any argument im support of the ciaim of the respondent to tne writ, but I have cons d- ered it with care am earnest desire to reach right conciusions, For the present I shall restrict myself to a brief statement of these conciustous without going lute the ground of them. The time does not allow me The following propositions seem to me to be sound, and they decide the case: — First--The first clause of the thirteenth amendment of the constitution of the Upited States interdicis slavery of involuntary servitude, except as a punish- meat for crime, and e#tablishes {reedom as the cunstitu- tonal right of all persons m the United tates, Ssxcond—The alieged apprenticeship in the present case is involuntary servitude wihin the meaning of words iv toe amepdmont, Third—If this were otherwise the indenture set forth im the return does not contain importans the security and benefit of the approntice which are raquired by the laws of Maryland in indootufes of white apprentices, and is, therefore, in contravention of that clause - the firatesection of the Civil Rights law enacted by C April 9, 1960, Fourth—This law having been enacted under the necond clause of the thirteenth amendment as enforce. ment of the first clause of the same amendment is con- wtitutional and applies to all conditions prohivited by it, whether onginaling in transactions betore or since {is emactinent.

IMPORTANT CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTIONS. (Washington (Oct, 16) Correspondence of the Hoston Hon, Francis Thomas stated before the Sub-Committee to-day his compla ota against tho present State govern- meat of Marylaud, contending that no State governmeut was republican in form which violated sue cardinal principto of apportioning repreteatation according to popuiation. He said the pew constitution of Maryiaod vewotieally placed the government of the State in the Bands of & minority of ove-third of its people. Another grave soem he said, was whothor s Stace government aed by the United Btates can be superseded bya new form of government created in defance of the Provisions of the existing consjitution, and especially, whether a convention called by & Legisiature in dotiance of the provisions of tbe constitution under which raid Legislatare acts, and whieh convention is made up ou a representative basis unknown to the constitution of a Par such as cau logaily act on behall of the people tate, Such « body being clearly revolutionary the aeation remains to be determined by ihe autherities of the United Sates whother. the tori: of government guaranceed to the people of the states are to be changed according to the terms prescribed therein, by which = Uuitod States government, tho State government and the people of the State are equaliy bound, or by revo- jutionary im total disregard of the terms of A, solemn lhe determination of there im, queations will nos only ve the validity af t vended new constitution of one. cd oue_ goverment’ “Oe oe waa government. ioe wae adintited’ by ‘both age ed Congress oaumea "een — of ® State ig republican ga be ft a right to ge vented the otials of Senators tae and inquire imto the’whole subject.
