city within the past week:
Twenty years ago, a negro, held as a slave bv
some one in Maryland, escaped TO Phiadelphia
and took with him his little daughter. aged eight
years. There they lived long time without anv
to modest or make them afraid Alter while the
child, now woman, came to this city to reside

belief that no one, not even her companion knew
that she had ever been slave AT n late bour

Dttcer) knocked at her door, and desired her TO

ment, the son OF her old master In moment she

treated the trembling woman very kindly. and in.

was informed where she was. The next dav a

III The North Star grows Cross about the result
OF the election. After charging the Wings with
owing their success 10 the abolitionists (Which by
the way is as stupid thing as even the Star ever
said) it complains Of "the use made of the tariff
question" by the Whigs and thinks it quite "undem-
Ocratc" in the cidercras TO do ANYTHING but trade
in dried coonskns. They should not have med
died with the tariff to the injury of the locos, who
unfortunately had taken strong flee trade grounds :

tradeiSm and its ADVOCATES We beseech the party
TO comfort the North Star.

the locos endeavOred to 'make of the tariff" as we'll
as to do the best thing it could under existing cir
cumsiances to cover up its own crooked career in
reference to it, the Sage of the Star gravely SAYS
I'VE defined our position plainly as words could
do it," &c. His wish evidently is, to be understood
as having "defned his position" at the outset and
maintained that position through thick and thin TO
the present time, though he dare not assert it other
than by sheepish inSinudtion. The great value of
the policy of sinking out of bad fix must be duly
appreciated by the Star editor, since by humping
political abolitionism, which so late it had in parc-
ular charge, and defining its position" most indef-
ney, the fact is seeked over that the entire loco
press in Vermont maintained uncompromsjnp hos

following anccdote of young Master Slender
During the young fellows visit to New York
a few weeks since, a set Of wicked Loco Foco

things, that he thought his Pa deserved something
from the hands olthe democracy "Your father,
