BALTIMORE.
Arrests for Abduct1ug sIaves-Gen. Chaplin =
Case.


Correspondence of The Tribune,
BALTIMORE, Tuesday, Nov. PIP NJ
Two Germans, named Andrew Spies and Adj
am AlYerts, have been arrested to day, charged
with abductng four slaves from the State. Two
Of them were women, belonging to Henry Hiser,
and the others woman and child, belong ing to
Joshua Cockey, all of this city. The proof is that
Oh Saturday evening Sept. y, free colored man
came to Spies and Alverts and engaged them to
carry the four slaves to a Camp-meeting then be-
ing held near Hanover, Pa. on the Mary land line.
The accused drivers OF furniture cars, and &C
cordingly started for the alleged destination but,
instead OF going to the camp, took them several
miles beyond to the house of man named j j.
Warner near shrewsbury, Pa. They received
SIS for their trouble, and returned to Baltimore.
Warner is well known it is said, as a harborer OF
fugitive slaves The slaves subsequently took
the cars and proceeded on further north The ac-
cusedR do not deny carrying them to Warmers,
but plead in justification that they were ignorant
being foreigners OF committing a breach of the
law. Maryland justice, however, is almost sure
to consign the innocent with the guilty to the
same place-our penitentiary-so strong is the
prejudice against all persons charged with aiding
and abetting slaves to escape.
The trial of Gen Chaplin is progressing at
Rockville, OF which you are daily apprlsed by
telegraph You will perceive that the Attorney
General Of Maryland Geo. r. Richardson Esq.
is there in person prosecuting. He is one of the
greatest criminal lawyers in the country, but has
a strong opponent in Chas H. Pitts, Esq. of this
city, who has been employed by Gen. Chaplin's
friends to aid in the defense. Nj. Pitts ranks
among the best Of our Attorneys, ana will be
found an able defender of the accused. There Is
great interest felt here 10 know the result OF the
trial IiGO.
