A letter dased Washington, Sept. 6
says
"A few days since, about seventeen
slaves, including both sexes, were permit
ted by their masters, residing in this city
to attend eamp-meeting toward the
north part of the State, (Maryland.) After
getting their spiritual strength renewed
they concluded to turn their faces toward
the land of the free, and had almost sue
ceeded in reaching place of safety, when
the stampede became known. a drover
in Baltimore offered to capture the fugi-
tives for share of the sale nsOney to the
cotton plantations of the South. The
owners having agreed to his proposition,
he went in pursuit, and brought back nine
of the party, who were yesterday put
en- route for the cotton fields. The profits
TO the catcher, am told, amounted to
more than $4,000. The rest of the party
have not yet been captured

The Subscriber believes that in presenting this

together with the expedition and consequent
saving of labor effected in the Of it, all re-
commend it as being Il machine pre-emnently
adapted to the planting Of Corn in the broad and
fertile prairies of the West. Where ever exhib-
tied, at the diferentA gricultural Fairs through
out the Country, it has never failed to obtain the
Premium over all competitors. 1t took the
