A CARD.


A BOLlTION--FONT III. PETTIS,
IL Counsellor at Law, late of Virginia, having To-
Gated himself in the city of New York for eight years
last pant respectfully tenders his Acknowledgements to
his friends in the South for their confidence and pat
ronage in various matters of business, and soicits
their continuance. He has had much experience, both
in this State and that of Pennsy vania causing ugi-
tive slaves to be secured and will continue TO effect such
objects whenever called upon. His plans are so well
matured, by having at his command the most efficient
aid, located at different points, and successfully har
monizng that he cannot but fatter himself that he
will have more complete in future than hereto
fore indeed, if clothed with full authority he can
any fugitive slave to be secured, who may be
the United States, north Of Mason and Dixons line.
All the statutory enactmcnts of this State this sub
ject, have been pronounced unconstitutional by the
highest tribunals II will therefore be seen that the
provision made in the constitution on this subject are
paramount to all other enactments, whether State or
Federal. There are thousands Of fugitive slaves in
this city and its envrons and they continue to null
tiply rapidly.
These being at hest, very unpopular in this
quarter, Che having the Abolitionists the flesh, and
the devil to contend with,) it will be necessary for
those wishing to his services forward him
power of attorney, duly executed and minuteiy de-
scrptye Of the fugitive and also fec Of $50 to deray
preliminary and contingent expenses. His universal
charge for securing such slave $780, and all
able expenses
Mr.. Pettis will promptly and faithfully attend to
any business confded to him, touching his profession.
AL letters must be post paid.
