THE. FUGITIVE SLAVE Law.

The FIRST case under the new fugitivs
Slave LAW, came off in the city Of New York
on Friday Last The efficacy Of the Law for
the purpose intended was fully apparent
No attempt was made to ohstruct the officers
ia athe discharge Of their duty, nor to rescue
the slave from them, as frequently happened
under the old law but the process went on
with perfect qdietness, and the slave was de-
lirered to4his owner, and carried off Under
an escort; Furnished BY order of the Commits
sioner before whom the examinatio was held.
Northern men cannot rejoice in the sprrenE
der Of fugitive slaves, abstractedly consider
cd but they ought to rejoice that the spiritI
Of the Constitution is at length complied
with, and that we no longer stand in the attil
tude of covenant .breakers.
