Important Trial-Eucitive slaves.

Dssrct Court Of the United States for the Southern
District of lora. June Term, Burlington, 1850
Hon. J. J. DYER, presiding.
This was an action Of Trespass on the case, for
rescuing, harboring and concealing, and hindering
and preventing the arrest Of the plaintiffs slaves
who had absconded from Missouri into Iowa.
The action was brought by Ruel Dagss, Of Clark
County, Missouri, against Elihu Frazier, Thomas
GARRISON Frazier, John Conner. Pau, Way, John
Pickering, William Johnson, and others, defend
ants.
d. Rorer, Esq, Counsel for plaintiff; J. c. Hall
and ]. T. Morton, Esq'rs, for defendants.
Suit was originally brought in September, lsAs,
BY Messrs Sweet and Whicher, conducted suhse-
quently, by Nessrs Hall (Augustus) anc Knapp, un.
til short time previous to the present term, whe
Mr. Rorer became the sole counsel for the plaintiff.
Much interest was manifested by the public dur
ing the continuance Of the trial, the court room be-
ing fully occupied with anxious listeners until its
termination. perhaps owing as much TO the discus
sions and excitement now existing in Congress
upon this identical suhject among "thers, to any
immediate concern for the result Of the cause. II
may be proper to add that the verdict has given
universal satisfaction, both to those who were in
attendance. and the public. The jury was an ex-
celient one. and, cannot doubt did full and i'm
partial justice TO the parties.
The number of slaves ahscOnding was nine, orig.
inay, but four Of them were afterwards recovered.
Those not regained were two negro men, one wo-
man, and two children.
Verdict for plaintiff $4,000. Amer its rendition,
defendants counsel moved the Court for q new
trial, which after argument, was overruled. De-
PENDANTS were then allowed time to file their bill
of exceptions for the purpose Of taking the up
on writ Of error.

would seem from the proceedings. that the friends

united upon Clark. We shall probably, have some
thing further to say upon this nomination, after
