THE UNION SAVED AGAIN.

From the accounts in the Post and Tribune
OF N. T., we learn that another man charged
with once being slave, has been torn from his
family and friends, and, under the name of law.
without an apology for its forms even, as proyi-
ded by the fugitive BILL has been hurried back
to the prison house and bondage. I, appears
that man by the name of Preston was manu-.
mitted by his mistress, some three or four yeaYs
ago, and has since, until recently, resided in the
bosom of his family undsturbed, in the city OF
New York. II further seems thata man by tho
name OF Reese was informed tina, he was there
by some OF the spies that now infest she north
ern cities, and Reese sends word to q lawyer by
the name of Busted in New York city, who.
for the pay, was ready TO do this dirty work -
and accordingly he hires police officer to act as
the cats-paw, and as "where thieves will there's
way" they were not long in finding pretexi
for srrestng and caging the negro According
ly he was charged with larceny thrown into Jail
dragged before the Commissioner. "Morton,"
(ever hated be his name,) and after hearing
part Of one side, without waiting for the defence,
he adudges him a slave and leaves the Court
Room. The negro is snatched from the en-
brace of his weeping wife, hurried down TuH
of back stairs, put into hack and drove to STA;
very, followed and backed by the u s. Marshal
of the city, tnd hired posse of DULLES who are
to spree 1t week or two at the expense of In
Gle Sam-because they who pretended to own
him did not wish to pay his expenses as long as
they coad throw it upon the shoulders OF Uncle
Sam, who was made by the southerners banker
and exchequer to foot all the bills which are
made in carrying out the details of that bill
which Mr.. Webster agreed to Support to the
! fullest extent"
The strangest ntatuation still seems TO pos
sess the minds of a great many men of whom
we have been anXiously looking for better things.
/ Notwithstanding the Editor of the Tribune 80

the laws which are made to uphold it; and not
wlthstanding he says he will not assist in enfor-
cling the terms of the fugitive law, there is little
doubt but that he will fall into the support of
any nominee for the presidency who will receive
the nomination of the Wing National Conven-
ton. Thus his labors of to-day will be demol-
ished by his insane actions of tomorrow

How many of the sixty -four will eventually be

will both be pledged to the sustaining Of the

be unequiyocal and satisfactory. And it may as
