(From ,he Springfield Republican, May 291
The fugitive slave arrest at Boston, 80 close upon
the passage OF tie infamous Nebraska bill, has
kndled the most intense excitement and ndigna-
ton throughout the eastern counties of the State.
Public sentiment, which was disposed rather to
deprcate and mourn in humility the inhuman per-
petration consummatcd in that enactment, has
now been reused to an almost fearful degree Of
evaporation by this aided outrage on the part
OF the slave power, ia attempting to drag ano.
ther poor fugitive from the free territory Of
Massachusetts,. Whatever regrets are felt at the
disturbance Of the public peace and the commit
sion OF lawless violence, the community Is unani-
nous III its condemnation of the arrest Of Burns,
and IN its earnest wishes for his rescue. In
Worcester county the excitement is beyond all
precedent. In hundreds Of instances, farms, work.
shops and places Of business were deserted on the
first receipt Of the intelligence from Boston, and
multitudes fastened thitherward TO and to act.
On Saturday morning about 1000 citizens of Wor-
cester hunied to Boston, large part OF them by an
extra train chartered for the purpose. In one in
stance, one Of the most extensive machine estab-
lishments of the city left almost without ope
rative, such the anxiety to participate in the
scenes that might transpre at the capital of the
commonwealth. Most Of them returned, however,
on the postponement of the case to Monday; and on
Saturday evening" without any preconcerted notice,
a meeting OF thousand persons was convened at
the City Hall by the ringing Of the Old South church
bell Oliver Harrington presided, and Thomas
Drew was secretary, and Rev. Mr.. Higginson and
Others addressed the audience.
The meeting adjourned to Sabbath evening, when
another large gathering filed the hall, and adj
dresses were made by various gentlemen, and it
was voted to suspend al labor on Monday and visit
Boston to witness the result of the hearing before
the United States Commissioner, and to take
such action as circumstances might demand. In
the proceedings of these meetings the warmest
sympathy was expressed for Martin Stoweli, citi-
zen Of Worcester, under arrest at Boston on
charge of murder in connection with this case.
Mr. Stowell is the same individual who went to
Syracuse TO rescue the fugitive Jerry, in which he
succeeded: and his efforts in this case, although it
is alleged he committed violence, have enlisted
deep interest in the result. People were pouring
into Worcester from all quarters on Sunday eve.
ming, to take the morning trains to Boston.
