FUGITIVE SLAVES AND FREE NE
GROES.

A pamphlet published on this subject con-
tains some striking statistics. The writer es-
Inmates the number of slaves who have es-
capped from the South in the last forty years,
at 6l,624, or fifteen hundred annually; and
the total loss tacenty seven millions screen hun
bred and thirty thousand, eight hundred dol.
lars! 1t is stated that the main element in
determining these results, is the difference
between the actual increase of the black
population of the North. from one census to
another, and what the increase would have
been had it been conf ned to natural causes.
According to the pamphlet, the slave popu-
lati0n of the South doubles once in 80 years;
the free negroes of the South once in twenty
five; the free negroes of the North and West
once in forty years, from the natural increase
alone. 1t is shown thatthe free negroes of the
South are the most stable and least migratory
of any class of population in the U. States
leaving out of question their migration to
other slave States-that considerably more
of the free negroes migrate from the free
States to the slave States, than from the
slave States to the free States-and thar for
ty nine fftieths of all native negroes of the
slave States who are found in the free States,
were fugitive slaves when they left the slave
States.
