FREE BLACKS IN THE WEST INDIES
The Savannah Republican, in regard to the
colonization of free persons Of color of the
United States in some Of the West India
Islands, says:
1--WE agree that the less the British gov
eminent have the do with The black race in
the United States, The better will il be for US.
The people of the South are il favor Of tue
Peaceable removal of the free persons Of
color in their midst to Liberia, or to some
other remote and suitable place. If every
such person, both here and at the North,
would emierate to Africa il would be the best

FUGITlvE SLAvEs.-1'hose of our friends,
who have lost slaves from time to time, and
failed to recover them by the offer Of large
rewards, might renew their offers, we think,
at this time with greater hope Of advantage.
The necessity Of complying with The fuei-
tive slave law Of 1850 has become so maui
fest, that even in Pennsylvania and Ohio the
authorities appear Less hostile 10 The slave
owner; and the recent treason trials have
caused The arrest Of large number of me-
groes suspected Of having connection with
these crimes, besides bringing still greater
number within the observation Of the police,
it is though. this improved state OF public
opinion and the facts we have noticed, might
be used advan.ageously by those hitherto
seeking their property in vain. Liberal re-
wards, offered for slaves who have been
gone for years even, might prove efectuat
in retaining the fngi,ives for their owners.

ELEc EIoN OF MAGISTRATES, &c.-The
impression generally obtains that the cleo
lion of Magistrates and Constables, under
the new Constitution, is 10 take place the
ensuing fall Such, however, is not the case.
The Constitution says:-"The Legislature,
at its frst session after the adoption Of this
Constitution, shall fix the number Of Justi.
ces of the Peace and Cons,ables for each
ward of the city Of Baltimore, and for each
election distric. in the several counties, who
shall be elected by the legal and qualified
voters thereof respectively at the meet gene
raj election for Delegates thereafter, and
shall hold their Offices for two years from
The time of their election, and until their
successors in office are elected and qualfi.
ed" Now, an election for Delegates was
held last fall, and az they are chosen for two
years, another election will not take place,
of course, before November, 1853 !; SO that
Magistrates and Conslables will have to be
appointed in the usual manner until tina,
.me.-Wi,h regard to Supervisors Of Roads,
no provision is made in The Constitution IS
TO the time of their election. !. is simply
stated tina, .he Legislature shall provide by
law for the election Of Supervisors in the seve-
raj counties by the voters Of the election dis
uic,s respectively, SO ,ha. il rests with that
body to decide when the first election shall
take place, and how long the Supervisors
shall serve. As the election for Magistrates
and Constables does no. take place until
1853, i. is TO be hoped that the Legislature
will so arrange it ,ha, the. election Of Super
visors shall be held at the same time, and
that their term o: service shall be the same
as that Of the former. Should the time Of
choosing Congressmen be changed to No
vember, as we presume j, will be, this will
have the effec. to give Us an election but
once in two years, Except when tina. for
Presiden. occurs,) as the election of all the
other officers under the new Constitution
takes place in two, four, six. or ten years
from the fall Of lS5l.-.St. .Mary's Beacon

We are looking very anxionsly for the
Report of the Committee on Education IN
the House of Delegates. The majority re-
port of their predecessors, in the last LegIs-
la.ure, reported against the establishment
of a commpelent system, in consequence OF
a fear of its interference with the State
credit but, they said, they ardently hoped
the time would soon come, "when she
(Maryland) will be not only willing but
able to establish a system Of common
schools in unision with her feelings and
worthy Of her dignitY.'

who came 10 his end so mysteriously while
on his way home from Baltimore, (where
he had given evidence against McCreary for
kidnapping colored girI,) has been again
examined by Drs. Dickey, Thompson, and
