Va There is a gang of Infamous and foolish
persons In Pittsburg, who are so much afraid that
slave may chance to pass through that town. that
they are in the habit of kidnapping free negroes
Several cases of this kind have occurred there with
IN mouths past. A few days since, Mr. HENRY,
arrived in the city of smoke and insane coored per-
soma with nineteen negroes en- roats for the North
ern part of Ohio, where he proposed to provide
them with homes They were not slaves, having
been manumitted by their owner, and Mr.. HENRY
was merely the agent to see that they were COM
fortsby settled, and was amply provided with funds
for that purpose. When on board steamboat and
about TO leave the city, they were induced by a
crowd of f natos TO believe that they were not to
be ad e free, and persuaded to leave the boat
Mr.. HENRY made no objection, and instead of hav-
ing good homes they are left to starve The Post
says "Those who enticed these negroes away from
Mr. HENRY, under such circumstances, deserve to
be called negro stealers They have stolen these
pQQr negroes from friend, not an owner, and have
robbed them of home, and Of comfort and pros
perity." What an excellent thing it would be if
all the fools were dead The Abolitonists of Pitts
burg, black and white, would certainly be NUM-
bsred among the things that were. ....-'
Some time ago the experiment of paving
tue streets with iron blocks was tried on limited
scale in New York, and the experiment has Sue
ceeded so well that committee Of the board Of
councilmen Of that city have reported in favor of
paving Maiden lane and Cortlandt street with the
iron pavement, and there is prospect Of their
rf1otio bair odn HI
lnent it is said, gives the street the finish
OF elegantly tiled floor, and there is no mud or
dust from it; In Boston, the experiment of iron
psvements was tried two years ago, and it is said
to have been successful.

1t viii be seen by the following extract
from letter written by g. B Mckinney,
banker in London. and published in the
n. Y. Post, that Lord Palmerston credits
the absurd stony of an anticipated invasion
of Ireland by American illibusters
I'm a conversation had the honor to hold
with Lord Palmerston last night, he inform
ed me that he had received authentic infor-
nation from his agents in the United States,
that no less than thiTzy vessels had left the
port Of New York, fully manned and equip
ped for tlLsbustering descent upon Ire
land-and that as many more had already
departed from Boston, Charleston and New
Orleans'tor the same purpose His lord
ship assured me that the British govern.
ment were already on the alert, and had
dispatched all the naval force at its disposal
to intercept them in their piratical designs.
The island Of Ireland is now surrounded.

to prevent any successful aggression of that

4 INDUSTRIOUS SCHEME.-The Madison
(Wisconsin) Aygns, states that a gang of
desperadoes recently attempted to blow up
train of cars in that State Their plan,
the Argus states. was TO Gil the joint of
stove-ripe. stopped up at both ends. with
powder, and bury it under the track, to
have train Of powder leading from the
mine several yards alongside the track, and
then along on the track mixed with percus-
sion caps, so that when the locomotive
crushed and ignited the caps. and fired the
train Of powder. the passenger car would be
directly over the mine, and suffer severe
explosion. Some Of the conspirators have
been arrested and at least five of them will
have an opportunity to expiate their offence
in the Penitentiary.
