UNITED STATES Court IN ONO. - Judge
Mclean, in his charge to the Grand Jury, con-
graduated them that violation or infraction of the
law relating to the reclamation of fugitives from
service, had taken place within that State. He
trusted that no such interference with the Law
would, at any time, be exhibited in Ohio. Should
such occur, it ought to be promptly dscounten
anced and frowned down. If the law were objec
tionable, let it be remedied by the ballot-box.

BY the destruction of cattle, horses, machinery,
fences, mixed crops, etc., and most severe of all,

its sugar crop alone by its culpable want of pro-

sugar crop of 1S49 and 1850, find that the sugar
plantations in the parishes of 1berville and Ascen.

crevasses, made nearly four thousand five hundred
hogsheads of sugar; there three other crevasses
along the river, below Baton Rouge, and one above
in West Baton Rouge, the united injury of which
will be at least four thousand hogsheads We have,
therefore, loss in the State this year, in sugar
alone, amounting to the enormous number of eight
thousand hogsheads of sugar.

The ARRIVAL OF SIMS IN SAvANNAH-The
Savannah Republican, of the 21st, announces the
arrival of Sims, the fugitive his delivery to his
owner, and follows the announcement with able
editorial from which we make couple OF extracts:
Thomas Sims, the fugitive slave of Mr.. James
Potter arrived here Saturday morning, on the brig
Acorn, Captain Coombs, and was by u S. Deputy
Marshal Riley delivered over to Mr.. Bacon one of
Mr.. Potter's agents He came out in charge of
Messrs. Riley, Byrne, Swain and Russell, U. S.
Deputy Marshals, and Messrs, Coolidge, Clarke
True and Dover, special officers and assistants
This large force was detailed to accompany the
fugitive back-not so much, we presume, to pre-
vent rescue upon the high seas, to set an ex-
ample before the Northern people OF the manner in
which the laws OF the land will hereafter be en-
forced and indicated. Another object, doubtless,
was to satisfy the Southern mind that this partic-
ular law shall be maintained and carried out with
all the power and dignity of the Government.
When viewed in either both of these aspects
such demonstration of the majesty of the laws
and the supremacy of the Government cannot but
be highly beneficial in allayng the excitement and
bad feeling, unhappily existing to too great an ex-
| tent, in both sections of the country"
In relation to the fancy SKETCH of his having
| been bought to be taken back to Boston, the
Republican says:
"a story was put forth in Boston, which has
since been caught up here, that the fugitive had
i Detl UT Woulu ut Sou, anu returned 10 boston
We authorized by Mr.. Potter to state there is
not the least foundation for the report. He further
says he would not sell the slave for any sum- how
ever large, to be returned to Boston. We felt sure
from his previous conduct, that such would be his
course; and but for the misapprehenson which
might exist abroad, we should not have thought il
necessary to obtain his authority for this flat con
| tradiction"
This fiat contradiction deprives the fre-eaters O.
| all the said and comfort" thew derived from III.
assertion that Sims could not be taken from Bos
ton until the aboltionsts assured that he hat
been purchased, and would soon be sent back t.
the city. They will now find it necessary tc
| invent some other reason to show why the Fugi
tive Slave Law was not enforced in Boston by tn,
arrest and return of Sims to his owner.

HOW THEY SUFFERED.

Beach were picked up the last of Sep
tember, in a small boat about 20 miles
at sea, by Spanish Schooner, and
taken to Mariel and thence to Havana.
They asserted that they had been dri-
ven to sea from Key West, but their
wretched condition and the position in
which they were found, rendered it GER
tain that they belong to the invading
expedition. The Captain General Of
Cuba decided at once to send them
with the prisoners to Spain, but Capt.
Platt, OF the Albany, prevailed on the
Captain General to retain them in IIa-
vana for trial. lie has promised to
Capt. ?. to do all in his power, con-
sistent with duty, to secure their release.
The Havana correspondent of the
Courier and Enquirer says, their story
taken from their own lips is as follows /:
"They are the remnant of a party
Of six, who, since the scattering Of the
invading band at Aguacate, have been
wandering among the mountains.-
Three Of them were shot by the Span
ish troops in pursuit OF them, and one
who was taken prisoner, is now on his
way to Spain. They escaped by
springing down a precipice, and after
wards hiding themselves in the thick
underwood, which here grows SO close
that even those who are hunting a run
away negro never think Of continuing
pursuit ii he takes to the wooded noun
tains. After great suffering, and liv-
ing for days upon a little corn which
they cleaned from well reaped fields,
and upon crabs, which they eat at the
risk Of being poisoned, they reached the
sea where they saw schooner t anchor,
about quarter of mile from the
shore and what was more important
to them; they saw that she had a
small boat floating astern. In spite of
their exhausted condition, and of the
sharks, which swarm in these waters,
they determined to swim out to this
boat and attempt to escape in her.
They waited until twilight, and
swan out. They found no oars in the
boat; and one man on the quarter deck
of the schooner. He remained there
with most provoking pertenacity until
they thought that they would sink from
mere exhaustion for their strength
was so far gone that they could hardly
hold to the boat. At last he went for
ward and entered the forecastle, and
they succeeded in getting on board the
schooner, and securing two oars.
With these they put off and having
been at sea between twenty-four and
thity-six hours, rowing nearly all the
time, and just as the mountains over
which they had been pursued many
weary days, and on which they had
laid many weary nights, were sinking
in the distance, they were met by a
Spanish collier, on board which they
went most voluntarily. -.a.
