&" 4 man named George T. Alberto was
recently convicted in Philadelphia OF kid.
mapping a negro child and taking it 10 Ma
r,land where it was sold into slavery-and
sentenced to twelve years imprisonment in
the Peni,entiafy. The penalty in Alabama
for kidnapping free negro and selin. him
is. we believe, twenty years imprisonment
in the penIlentiary.'
The above appeared in the Alabama
Journal published in this city, lew days
since. Aud now. reader. Just listen TO the
tacis in the case, aud then make up your
own opinion of a paper that would thus
mislead the public mind
Some two or three years ago, negro
woman ran away from her owner Mr. J.

syvania. Learning her whereabouts, he
dispatched two agents-ol whom Nr. G.
+. Alberto, the individual named in the
above extract, is one---to bring her home
They did SO. During the negro womnn'-
absence as n runaway slave she had child
in Pennsylvania. which of course was the
property of the owner of the woman, aud
was broagh. with her to him. For this re.
clama,ion OF these two slaves. both the
agents have been convicted aud sent 10 the
peuiteniiary of Pennsylvania for treirs
years; and the Governor of that State has
now made a requsiiion upon the Governor
Of Maryland for Mitchell himself (who nev.
or left the State OF Maryland Mt all, as we
understand it, Ms a fugitive from Justice
the oileuse being the recovery by his agents
OF his own property. guaranteed by the
Constitution OF the United States. d
course the Governor Of Maryland refuses to
give up Mitchell.
Now we ask. what kind Of comfy and
reciprocity is this among the people Of two
States caIkug themselves sisters, aud ,heir
citizens treshren' man who goes o,
sends to free State to recover his property
makes himself and agents liable to long

following up their slaves - free State
We cannot see why the Northern people
