SLAVE RESCUE IN BLAIR COUNTY PA-There
has been some excitement in Holidaysburg Pa.
arising out OF the attempt of Mr. Parsons, of ROM
ney, Va, to retake 4 runaway slave, who ran
away last August, but whose master at that time,
took no pains TO recover him.
''The slave Jacob Green, few weeks after, re-
turned, under cover of night, stole horse aud ear
ried of five OF Mr.. Parsons slaves. Two weeks
ago he again returned, and carried off FIVE slaves
from the same place belonging to Mr.. Stump This
induced Stump, Parsons and nephew of Mr.
Parsons, to start i'll pursuit of them. In Bedford
county, Pa, two of Stumps slaves were overtakcn
and sent back. Green discovered Parsons in the
cars and jumped out. and Parsons followed and se-
cured him. though he was heavily armed. Green
admitted that he Parsons slave and presu-
ming this to be satisfactory evidence, Parsons or
dered his horse out, mounted the slave before HIM
and was about to depart. when Green slipped off
and ran. Parsons caught him the railroad
Gen. Potts, the weighmastcr in Gaysport, demand
cd his authority for arresting the negro Parsons
refused to show any authority, and declared that
he was arresting him under the fugitive slave law
The excitement rose to a very high pitch Parsons
attempted to force the slave toward the tavern but
he grappled by Col. Piper, J. r. Crawford and
Gen. Potts, who held him pinoned, while VIM. Carr,
the negro barber kicked him! During the melee,
they forced the slave from Parsons and Carr took
him off The release of the fugitive effected, Potts
went before magistrate, and made oath against
Parsons for attempting to kdnap. Parsons pro-
his way to Canada, and Parsons Is put to the trou
bic and expense of standing law suit for endea
yoring to arrest q slaye-such he beyond a
doubt. The thing Is not ended yet"

THAT DROWNED GIRAFFE-Our readers Will
remember the excitement created in this CITY last
spring by the announcement that one of the very
taest kind of giraffes be added to the great
exhibition Of wild beasts, that was given at that
tlmo In the celebrated Floating Palace that the
giraffe had come that the giraffe would be put on
board the palace at certain hour, and Immediate
ly be ready for the inspection Of the curious and
then, sad "reminiscences these that the giraffe
missed his footing in tho process of transfer TO the
palace, fell into tho Mississippi and met with wa
terry death.
We thought, TO be sure that we had heard the
last of the drowned giraffe; but he or his ghost
turns up again. and in the Court of Over and Ter
miner sitting at Albany, n Y.
1t seems that tho giraffe belonging to the inevita
bic Barnum, who, we verify believe, has an inter
est in every peripatetic show In the country
Like Cardinal Nolsey, Owe beg his Grace's par
donD
NO pie is free from his ambitious finger"
Barnuu, it appears by the trial that was going
at last accounts had let the giraffe to theklOat-
ing Palace proprietors, and had undertaken 10 de-
liver the beast safe and sound board that curious
naval structure, then lying at our Levee. But in
making the transfer from the vessel in which the
giraffe came out from New York he slipped into
the river and was drowned. Barnum now claims
that the delivery was perfected, and claims the
handsome Little sum of 80 900 AS the value of his
lost giraffe
1t is averred rs susceptible of proof that at the
time the animal went overheard one of the employ
of the palace had hold of his head and this
Barnum contends, is good evidence that he was in
the full possession of the defendants But these re-
ply that, while their man had holt of the giraffos
head, one of the Bsrnums men was pushing him,
dicre, and that this Is proof that the delivery
was not effected And this may be called the head
and tail OF this momentous case. We suppose we
shah hear OF its termination sometime between this
andn year at this time Justice not being over
