A Warming to Shareholders

MEssRs EDIroRs A singular %ritcutt-
| stance occurred in this neighborhood on the
evening of the Bird instant, WHICH should keep
Shareholders on theft guard. The occurrence
is as follows: On the aboye-named evening,
il was discovered by the writer of this warn
ing, that something of a suspicious character
was going on in the neighborhobd! This
prompted me 10 make an investigation OF
the mailer, and after securing a rusty asso-
ciaie to bear witness to the fray, | repaired
to the place where | supposed the transact
lion was TO take place. When ] arrived at
the place, ! found several blacks and whites
assembled together, and seemingly to bs
making every arrangement for an elopemeni,
Excited by curiosity, and anxious TO know
the intention Of my own slaves, who were
with the clan, | determined 10 conceal my
self and witness the whole transaction but
owing to some interested whites, whom
thought my friends, | was betrayed, and in a
few moments all was calm and d~esolate.
found myself completely defeated, and very
much 10 my sorrow. | fingered about the
rallying ground a few minutes, and found
that there were two men from Pennsylvania
with Il small wagon, to convey the slaves to
a free State. One of the clan was a stran-
ger, and said he resided in Pennsylvania -
the other is a man that left this county few
months ago with one of his colored friends;
and from every appearances they have organ
lied a clan and intend to carry out the prin-
ciples of John A. Mutrelli They came to-
gether again after | left tho place, on tho
same night, and lefl with fopr of Cherubim
Hafshman's negroes, and were seen by seve-
raj persons crossing the mountain towards
New Market. understand from good au-
thority' that they promised som of their CO.
lorec brethren TO return IN a few weeks 10
make a third adventure. These, as we'll a.
other reports, give a general impression that
Murfellism is about to make a second appear
ance in our land. II Is sincerely hoped that
the people on the Valley Turnpike and other
roads leading TO the free States, will keep :
keen eye, and not suffer the executors Of
such an outbrcaking plan to 20 uDnoliced.-
Their mode OF conveying their spoil is alone
enough to CAUSE suspicion. By strict atten-
zion such knaves may be detected and the
valuable property Of many Of our good citi-
zens saved.
