TIE FuGITivE ACT. Mr.. S. M. Booth,
the editor OF o paper in Milwaukee, has been
found guilty Of assisting in the escape Of
fugitive slaves, and has been fined the sum
Of 81 COO. The Jury who brought in a
verdict of guilty" passed the following:
Resolred, Ttat while We feel ourselves
bound by solemn oath to perform a most
painful duty. in declaring the defendant
guilty Of the above charge, and thus making
him liable to the penalties Of most cruel
and odious law, yet, at the same time, in so
doing we declare that he performed MOST
NOBLE, BENEVOLENT ASD-uUNAN ACT, and we
thus record our condemnation Of the Fugi-
tive Slave Law, and earnestly commend him
to the clcmency Of the Court.
The Independent makes the following
suggestions:
A practical demonstration Of the sympa-
thy OF Christians with the cluse OF freedom
and humanity, and with those who sutier
in that cause, should Mt once be made IN
connection with this case. Let the fine o.
one thousand dollars, imposed upon lir.
Booth, be raised IN subscriptions Of one dol
lar. We have already thirty dollars volun-
teered for this purpose, in one dollar sub
scriptions. We appeal to the friends OF
humanity, to bear their testimony to most
noble, benevolent and humane act" We
appeal to christians to bear tho burdens OF
one called to suffer for such an act. Let
our sympathy for the slave, and our detesta.
ton Of oppression, find instant utterance
through this channel.
Reader, when you have read this para.
graph, take Immediately one dollar from
your pocket and mail it to the Independent,
with line saying /" For S. NJ. Booth, from
-" or, which Is better, so among your
neighbors, and raise FIVE, Ten, twenty dol
lars, and forward the same to US with their
names.
To which we heartily respond. The case
is hard one.
