70 John Van Buren, in a letter the Free Soilers OF
Boston, is out against the Fugitive Slave law, in very
strong terms, denouncing unconstitutional and na-
nous, such other nation in Chrstendom would
submit to. Mr. Rantoul, another leading Democrat, is
also out against it.-JournaI.
And SO is William H Seward, the distinguished New
York Senator, who letter the same Conven-
ton of Free Soiers which he makes war on not only
the Fugitive Slave law, but all the compromise
sures except the admission of California So is John D.
Dclrees, another distinguished Wing. Hear how he
talks.
vast majority of the people Of this State of all
parties do think that the law, enacted for
that purpose, is what such law ought tn be- They
think that sufficient safeguard is not thrown around
the liberty of the free coored people of the free States
They do not like the summary provided for the
determination of the question of liberty slavery.

cation of impefections defects, matter how de-

This is good sound doctrine and we have no fault to
find with it. 1t is directly opposed to the tory dog

resorts his only ammunition: liar" "scoundrel,"

LETTER FROM MR.. THRASHER.
In PR1soN, HAVANA. Nov. Ia. 1851,

In PRIsoN, HAVANA, Nov. IA, 1851.
To the Editor Of the Ne,O York Daily Times:
Sir In consequence of the thousand false reports
that are circulated in regard to myself would Request
you to deny explicitly that there have been found
among my papers any letters or documents that com
myself, If am allowed the advantage of defence.
refrain from further remark pending my trial.
Respectfully, your obedient servant,
J. S. THRAsHER.
We received the foregoing letter yesterday. Il
shows that on the 18th inst. Mr.. Thrasher had moi
been garOtted which, considering the habits of the
thorites in Cuba, is a little singular. 1t shows
moreover, that he had not then been tried. The
Georgia, which arrived last Tuesday night left Ha-
the 18th, and brought news that he had been
tried, convicted and sent to fortress on the coast OF
Morocco for eight years. confinement. Another &C
count says that his trial lasted an hour and haf;-
that he himself not aoaved 10 be present that
two of the Court (Which consisted of three) voted
garOtte him, and that the Captain General having two
votes, with the third member of the Court, changed
the sentence to one oflong imprisonment How much
OF this is true, we have not yet means of knowing.
We hope, however, that The Republic will soon
publish some s. authentic information in regard to
the case. The Government must know something
about it, if Mr.. Thrasher himself has not pre-
sented what may be deemed ''proper representations
to warrant any interference his behalf. Something
must certainly be known at Washington concerning
important NATTER one, too, which cannot fail to
be presented for the consideration and action Of the
Government. The public anxiety which exists, In
regard ohe case of Mr. Thrasher would justify such
departure from official etiquette might suffice to
indicate ais fate and the of his trial. The
public is Indifferent to the rights of Amer
can citizen in Cuba as The Republic seems to be-, an
we hope the Administration is not.
