Dr.. Edwards, from the select committee con.

allies, and examiners appointed at New-York,
Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Charleston,

a few words of explanation by DR.. Edwards.

seven thousand pounds of rhubarb root had been
passed within ninety days, mo. one pound of

Sixth Annual Report Of the Western
Anti Slavery Society.

The Executive Committee of the Western
Anti-Slavery Society, in presenting this, their
Sixth Annual Report, rejoice in the belief
that the cause of the slave's redemption has
been, within the last year, as in former years,
steadily advancing. Prejudice the most ma
lignant, and opposition the most bitter, ii is
true, are yet met with. Calumny and re-
proach are dealt out to the Abolitionists by
those who hate the slave, and are welded TO
the tyranny and crime of the nation but
public attention has been aroused-discussion
has been elicited-the doctrine of " No union
with shareholders" has been proclaimed, and
the number of those willing to sacrifice sect
and party for the right and the true, and to
identify themselves, in the midst Of opposI-
ton, with the great movement in which we
are engaged, has been constantly increasing.
The visit Of VIM. Lloyd Garrison, Frede-
rick Douglass, and Stephen S. Foster, to our
State last summer, was productive of great
good. The bitter prejudice existing in the
minds of many in the Westagainst Mr.. Gar
rison, was, TO a great extent, removed by his
appearance amongst US. His candor, devoted
ness, and clear and forcible manner of speak
ing, produced a deep impression upon the
thousands who thronged the meetings and
his labors, taken in connection with those Of
our devoted and eloquent friends, Douglass
and Foster, we are sure, have done a work
which must be enduring. The severe i'll
ness of Mr.. Garrison, by which he was con-
fined at Cleveland for more than month, al
the close of his visit amongst US, was a source
of much regret and anxiety to his numerous
friends. The attendance upon so large q
number of crowded conventions, held often
at considerable distances from each other
together with the change of climate, proved
too much for his physical strength, and pro
duced effects upon his constitution, from
which, we regret to say, he has yet but part
ly recovered.

Correspondence Of the Tribune.
The Slave Abduction caSe---a Scene.
WASHINGTON, Saturday, July 29th.


A most extraordinary scene occurred to-
day in the District Court in the trial of Dam
lei Drayton on one of the foriy-one indict-
ments found against him for alleged stealing
OF Slaves from this District on the 10th Of
April last.
The District Attorney, in his opening for
the Government, had dwelt at length and
with great emphasis on the peculiar charac-
ter and value Of Slave property, and the enor.
nifty of the offence charged on the prisoner.
Mr.. Mann in opening the defence, admitted
that the fact that Slaves were human beings
might give them in certain respects a pecu-
liar value as property. But that fact also
carried with it certain peculiar disadvantages,
especially in relation TO the tenure of this pro-
perly. For Slaves might not only be stolen
like inaDimate goods, or stray like other ami
mails, but they might voluntarily and design
eddy run away of their own accord, which he
commended TO have been the case with the
Slaves alleged 10 have been stolen by Dray-
ton, and to this voluntary running away, the
Slaves Of this District were peculiarly La
BILE. They were surrounded by influences
that stimulate them to that course. One OF
the witnesses just examined, in fixing the day
Of Drayton's arrival here, had identified il as
the day Of the toTch-light procession, and
that ~allusion had called TO Mr.. Mann's mint
a great public meeting held on that occasion
in the streets of this city, at which thousands
were present, including doubtless many hell
in servitude; and he would read some extracts
from some OF those speeches, by way o
showing the particular stimulus to which tn
Slaves IN the District were continually expo
sed, and which might excite In their mind
the idea OF running away, quite independent
ly OF any acts on the part of this prisoner, o
OF any other person who might design to de
prive their masters of their services. MI
Mann then proceeded TO read certain extract

AmiStad CaptiyeS.

The following is the vote in The United
ment to the Appropriation Bill, for the pay
ment of $4,000 for the Amistad negroes.
The question was decided yeas "a, nays
81.
Among the yeas were eighteen Democrats
and six Whigs-four Democrats, Messrs.
Atherton, Dickinson, Dodge and flanagan,
and one Wing, Mr.. Dayton, from the North.
In the negative, were twelve Wings, eight
Democrats, and John p. Hale. OF this num-
Der, five are Southern Wings, (including
Delaware,) and three are Southern Demo-
Gratis, Messrs. Benton, Mason and Rusk.-
Seven are Northern Wings, and FIVE are
Northern Democrats.
The New York Tribune has the following
in relation 10 the Amislad case.
Ruiz and Montez bought the slaves with
a full knowledge that they were stolen
The Africans seized a favorable moment,
ovelpowered their kidnappers, and regained
their liberty, and meaning to return to Africa,
were deceitfully sleered to our shores. Here
they landed-here the kidnappers tried to
reclaim them; but there was no more law
than justice for it, and the United States
Courts unhesitatingly declared them entitled
to freedom. Thus liberated, they returned to
their own native land. Is it not, then an
impudent, outrageous abuse 10 call on the
people of this country 10 pay the baffied pi-
rates the estimated mercantile value of their
freshly-stolen human plunderl Look to the
Yeas and Nays when the House comes to
vote on this item.

No THREATs-No VIoLENcs.--Let the
stream Of opposition TO slavery, run deep, rap
i'd, resistless. but never turbulent. Let no
man use violence nor threats. Calm, DELHI
crate, and immovable, let him stand, and TIL
umph is certain. In the language Of the
Louisville Examiner, we say, "Let there he
then, no faltering, no doubt, no dependency.
But with forbearing fortitude hope on, work
on, wait-snd we shall see the extinction of
slavery, and our whole glorious land made 10

WING SPECULATIONS.

The New York Courier and Enquirer predicts
that Gen Taylor will be elected President, and
Daniel Webster Vice President-and that Dan
el Webster, if living, will succeed Gen. Taylor
as President. Here is fusion of parties, win
vengeance! Daniel Webster, with all his odious
doctrines, would sink any man, however popu,
lar he may be. Could The Southern people BE- in
duccd by any means 10 aid indirectly in the cleo
ton OF a man whose feelings and principles are
so an,agonistical to their own2 We canno, be-
lieve it. Put Webster on the Wing ticket, and
its defeat is beyond contingency.
The New York Tribune utterly denies The
truth ollhe report that Mr.. Clay has written let
ter stating that he will not stand aeains, Gen.
Taylor as candidate for next President. is
language is very emphatic:
"Mr. Clay has long been the acknowledged lea
der OF the Wing party; was its last candidate for
President, and barely, unfairly de:eated is more
beloved, esteemed, and conhded in by The wings
to-day Than any other man can be. He has been
suggested in various quarters as The whs candi.
dale next time, but has not sisnihed his assent.
Ee says he shall not be candidate unless there
shall be call upon him which shall render il
his duty 10 accept. Gen. Taylor-a man utterly
unknown as whig or as civilian in any way,
until within The last year OF so-has also been
proposed. He declines 10 answer questions cal
cula,ed to Test his devotion 10 whig principles
declines 10 say that he will abide The choice Ct
whis national convention, or Of Inc whis party,
in any way; declines 10 say lie will support Air.
CLAW if nominated: hni CO US he will run anyt-.-.
Nominated OF not nominated, wing canrica'e or
no whig candidate. To suppose that Mr.. Clay
,uo,ld nnder such circumstances volunteer 10
decline in favor of Gen. Taylor, is 10 pay poor
compliment, 10 his political integrity or his self
respect"
