made by the free negroes, and few white men
present to raise row" but the United States
Marshal was promptly in attendance and took
them into custody. The Mayor of the town then
addressed the crowd and told them that these cit-
gems of a sister State were their in pursuance of
law, to recover their property, and that they must
not be molested. The great majority of the audi.
ence heartily seconded his remarks, and declar.
ed that they would sustain him. After the inves.
tigation was had, and the slaves were proved and
identified, the officers summoned small posse to
accompany them out of the STAGE, and although
there was q considerable crowd at the Marshal's
office at the time, they passed through with.
out the slightest disturbance.
