New Yo.k, Sept. About half-past
4 this A. M. ste amer knickerbocker, while
on her way from Albany to this city, ran
foil of the mast OF sunken vessel, and i'm
media,ely began leaking at rapid rate un.
der the ladies' cabin. The vessel was at the
time near Fort Montgomery, and by crowd.
ing on full head OF steam, she vas run il
to Montgomery Creek, where she soon af-
forwards sunk. There were about two hun
bred passengers on board, all OF whom
were saved by the sloop Mechanic, which
happened to be in the vicinity. Twenty
two horses, and large number of sheep
were drowned The boat, which formerly
ran on the Sound, was valued at $50 ,O00.--
Her cargo is estimated at $4,000. Capt.
Nelson, who, with his crew, acted with
great presence Of mind, thinks the vessel
can be easily raised and repaired.

the intelligence that experience coniers'--
Whether the Gazette, in the interest II has

From 81 domingo.

New YORK, Sept. l.-Adviees from st.

Consul, General Seoyia, is taking active
measures 10 control the action of the Domi

succeeded in inducing the Minister OF Fo-

cent treaty negotiated with the United
States Commissioner Elliott, on the plea
that il contains aome errors Of form and Ian
pusge; but tie real object is said to.be to
suppress the treaty in accordance with the

An Example--A Slave Made Free by Mem
Der of Congress.


We find in Zion's Herald letter from
the Hon. Mr.. TRAFToN, member of the
House of Representatives from Massachu-
sets, in which he gives an interesting ac-
count Of the purchase Of female slave, TO
whom he gave immediate freedom. We
give portion Of Mr. TEAFToN's letter.

The people of Massachusetts,, and say as
Burlingame said, ~ hope they will forgive
metz The case was this: learned from
neighbor that there was somewhere in the
city slave girl whose master was willing to
sell low for cash. That his sons were un-
willing he should sell her, as when he died
she would bring one thousand dollars;
heard he had offered her for four hundred
dollars. | started off ia the morning, and
found the family in which she lived, hired
out Of course. She was aPprehensive that
she would be sold South. Said the good
woman TO me, 81 would not suffer what
Eliza has suffered for little time past for
all the world. She came home from market
the other morning." said she, "pale and
trembling, and another girl had told her that
she saw a slave .deuler that morning talking
with the old man" This was enough to
alarm her. Learning his residence, soon
found him. lie said ne had offered TO sell
her TO herself Tor S400-that man in the
city had promised to buy her for himself,

he, ali she will pay me $50, che shall De

OF her until the next morning. To this he
consented. then went TO the Capitol,

steps,

larger sum than | could atford-but had

TyPoGHApHreAL ERsoRs.-The types
play strange antics sometimes. An instance
or two in point are now right before U.S.
The Burlington Gazstte says that Gov
Grimes is building house 100 feet IN

or credit for being somewhat aspiring we
fame, tho ,vnes have elevated at least 100
fee, higher than the plan Of his building
con,emplatss. Again New England pa
per before US says, that in nnearthing the
house of that old pilgrim, Miles Standish'
his gun. barrel fif,y-two teetin length was
discovered, OF course inches would have
been more proper.
