The Trial at Hartford. Mr. Lewis Tappan left the city on Monday afternoon to attend the trial of the African captives at Hartford. Messrs. Staples and Sedgwick have gone from this city as counsel. The friends in several other cities will doubtless furnish able counsel in addition. The newspapers are proposing to give reports of the proceedings.
Great interest is everywhere awakened.
The African Captives. I cannot but look on these remarkable and exciting occurrences in a very cheering light. God has ordered them to hasten the overthrow of slavery. Whether they shall consent to remain amongst us, or whether they shall prefer to return to their native land, I hope the abolitionists will pour out kindnesses upon them without stint. Some of the donors for the defence of the imprisoned Africans have requested that their gifts might be acknowledged in this week s Emancipator.
