The most intense excitement prevails
here, in consequence of The escape of n
number of fugitive slaves, who arriv.
ed here last evening-the slaves from
Kentucky. On their reaching this city
they were escorted by their irl:nds and
n number OF citizens, TO the steamer Ar
row. Immediately Oh the departure Of
which vessel, an attempt was made TO
arres, them, but failed, owing to the in
reference of citizens Of both colors, who
prevented the slave ca!chcrs from TAX
ing the slaves ashore. After sharp
struggle the slaves succeeded in rsca-
ping to Canada. The slave catchers

A Brute or a Father.

On Saturday morning last there was little
newly-fallen snow upon the ground, and the cold
rain battered chilly and cold. Most of our city
readers recoect that morning and how their
cloaks and comforts and snow shoes, and umbrel-
las were brought forth
Between the hours of seven and eight o'clock
we were passing Browns Hotel, on the way to
our Office, when we observed a group of four or
five wicked-ooking little rascals the oldest among
them not more than fourteen years They were
looking across the Avenue very earnestly, and
swearing with compact intensity very hard to
initiate.
"What are you looking at !" we asked.
"Dont you see ?" said chap about nine years
old
"See what" we asked And that moment our
eyes were arrested by stout, warmly clad ruff
FAM and little girl seven eight years old run
ming along at his side unprotected from the rain,
and her bare feet and legs looking red with cold.
"Surely," we exclaimed unwilling to credit even
our vision in such case" surely that little girl
is not barefooted!"
"The devil she amt !" said one of the young
gentlemen, emphatically. "Yes, sir, but she is
barefooted and barelegged She coined close by
here; and wish was jest man enough for the
ugly old rascal, and be cussed to HIM" And if
the young gentleman's threats and oaths would
not convince one of his earnestness, his looks
and gestures would have been very ample for the
purpose. We felt not little moved with COM
passion for the illtreated child, and scarce less
by the noble and manly impulses of the equally
uncared-for boys around US.
To protect foster, and educate the young, is of
course the duty of every parent, but it is also
the duty Of every community; and God grant
that the time may soon come when this duty
shall be fully appreciated when not child
shall suffer for food or raiment, or grow up in
our midst without good moral and intellectual
cultivation.

allow his opponent to proceed without interrupt

had been extended to himself No one answered
