and marched in the centre of a hollow square
formed by the special deputies under the l. ;. /
Marshal, which occupied the centre Of tho escort

military, no interruption to the procession occur
rcd 4 few bottles OF Cayenne pepper were thrown
into the street near the Commonwealth oihce md
along thc route the escort was sautcd Sitl mingled
groaus, Kisses and cheers.
No decidedly hostile demonstration was made
throughout the entire proceeding aud the success
/ Of the outrages was complete. OF course. an
attack upon the guard would have resulted IN
terrible destruction Of human life.
As the fugitive and his escort LEFT the Court
House. the word passed Instantly down tho line,
among those who had not been kept back by the
police and military. At the same instant the
; steamer John Taylor passed up to I wharf, ready
to receive her passengers. ....

in the stream, with her steam up ready to 20 when
she might be wanted. The riggings Of vessels in
the vicinity were thronged with spectators. Long
wharf was kept clear of heavy teams, from about
halfpast II o'clock. At about that hour, the
! Black Maria,' with paupers for Deer Islard,
passed down, and created some sensation. A col
eted woman, who supposedit it contained the fugitive
fell upoh her knees, and was pulled out by the
crowd, just in season to prevent being over.
/ Most of the occupants Of stores on Long wharf
closed their doors at o'clock, and but little busi
ness was peihg uohe, anu many OF them Wlshed 10
