he fell. and was then conveyed into the Waiver

10 o'clock last evening to be in all probability NOR
tai. Mr. Fuller was sensible up to that hour and his
family were in attendance upon him.
Mr.. Schaumberg, upon Mr.. Fuller retreating, sup
no effect, pursued Mr. Fuller nearly to the other side
OF the avenue when, by the interference Of bystand
ers and Others and upon the information that Fuller
had fallen. he retraced his steps to the hotel, and
ascended TO his room. He was arrested there shortly
after by some officers. Much indignation at his con-
duct was expressed by the crowd who had congre
gated at the doors and in the Office Of the hotel.
He was conveyed to the Office Of B. K. Morsell.
Esq, at the fourth district police ofice and shortly
after the Hon. John p. Hale appeared as counsel
The facts having been detailed and the probable
death OF Mr.. Fuller ascertained, Schaumberg was
committed to jail for further examination an offer to
get bail being refused.
The immediate cause of this unhappy event was
the appearance of large placards on Monday morning
posted in the vicinity of all the hotels, headed
:" James w. Schaumberg, o liar, q coward, and
swindler,' and which contained statement tend
ing to show and prove Schaumberg to be guilty OF
lying, cowardice, and swindling, interspered with
many other opprobrious epthets.
II appears that Schaumberg was indebted to Mr.
Fuller and that i'll feeling had existed between them
for considerable time, and which, a former oc-
casion, led Schaumberg to make publication con-
corning Fuller, and Fuller to make personal as
sault on Schaumberg
Mr.. Fuller was well known to our citizens and to
the travelling public. In company with his father
he was for long time of the proprietors of the
City Hotel then of the Irving House. and recently of
the Hygeian Hotel, at Old Point Comfort. For some
months past he has been a clerk in the Census
Office.

We copy the foregoing merely for the infor-

Of Ohio from Kentucky to Canada. The facts
here set forth cannot be denied. Some five or
six weeks ago we crossed Lake Erie from San
dusky to Detroit On board the steamer were
a number of colored people, who denied being
fugitive slaves but who were bound for NAL
den, c. W. When the boat touched at that
point, large and dusky looking committee
were on shore to receive them with open arms.

II certainly proves poor fence in restraining
human chattels.' The number of slaves seek
ing free homes in the Provincial dominions Of
the Queen since the enactment has been much
increased. and it appears quite as difficult to
stop their hcgira as under the obsolete law o.

the compromise law, for it is so repugnant to

Such is the state of public opinion at the North,
and it is daily strengthening in the same di-
rection Slave holders and slave propagan-
dists bordering on the free States are realizing
that the fugitive law affords no great security
to slave property; and in Kentucky the forma-
tiOn of slave protection societies in each county
of the State. especially in those bordering on
the Ohio, is being mooted. A convention on
the subject was recently held at Maysville,
which not only recommended the formation of
such societies, but pursuing committees, the
raising of funds and payment of expenses and
rewards to those who make captures, aud re-
