TOBACCO. The market this week has been
quite unsettled, shippers showing disposition to
buy and holders more willingness to meet them.
The sales comprise about 200 hhds. Maryland new
crop, mostly lower grades, at S. for inferior to Sc
a6.5O for good common, which is decline of "a
bout So cents from the prices which prevailed all
winter. 1t is to be remarked, however, that the
appearance of the crop, as far yet received, in
dicates quality much inferior to that of last year.
and many dealers express the opinion that although
there is decline of so cents in the price of the
new crop, the falling off in the quality is fully
equal to 81. We believe it is customary, generally,
to send the worst of the crop to market in the be-
ginning of the season, and we hope the quality will
improve when the article comes in more freely
We quote
Inferior Maryland $3.50; common S6aG. 50
good common S6.50a7; brown S7a8; and fine
brown So a 10.
The inspections of the week comprise sol hhds.

MULTIPLICATION IN MASSACHUSETTS,
The joint special committee, Of which Joseph
T. Buck ingham is chairman, in the Massa-
chuse,,s Legislature, has reported a very
stringent bill, desi ged to interfere with the
operations of the fugitive slave law. il
brealhes spiri, Of open notification. 1t
forbids any officer or member of the volun-
teer militia Of Massachusetts, at the COM
mand or requsition Of a U. S. Marshal OF
deputy, to &C. as part Of the posse comitatus
in the arrest or detention Of any alleged fu-
giive slave, under severe penalties; requires
all dis,ric, attorneys to defend arrested fusi-
tives and provides that jury trial may
be claimed by every fugitive no,released, af-
ter examination by U S. commissioner
or justice Of any court. The Boston Ira
weller we'll says
"The passage Of such law as this by
the Legislature Of Massachusetts, would
place this ancient comm on ealh on a par
with South Carolina. 1t would make her
the tail Of that monster of which South Caro-
lima is the head-N ulifcs,ion."

ARREST OF ANOTHER FUGITIvE SLAVE
IN BosToN.-A fugitive slave named Alfred
Symmes was arrested in Boston on Thurs
day evening last, a, dance room, and con-
veyed by officers to the court house and
committed for the night. There was but
little excitement as the fact was no, gener-
ally known that evening. AT 8 O'Clock on
Friday night, however, large crowds of me-
had assembled in the neighborEood of the
State House debating upon the best plan Of
liberaing the fugitive, but strong bodies
Of Police were guarding the avenues lead
ing to the State House, evincing delermi-
nation to uphold the supremacy of the law.
Later accounts we have not. Ills very pro-
bable rescue was attempted, and if so the
authorities Of Boston have had an opportunity
OF redeemlng their pledge TO see the Fugi-
tive Ac, respected ind enforced.
The fugitive is claimed By James Porter,
of Georgia. The claimants testimony was
heard on Friday morning and the case ad-
journed over ill Saturday. Symmes made
a desperate resistance, and in the scufllc
that took place during his arres. he inflicted
a severe wound upon officer Ba,eman with
a dirk knife, the blow taking effect in the
region of The groin, though ii is not thought
dangerous.
