ARREST THF CITIZENS OF MEcHANICsBURG,--I
The preparations which have been for some time
in progress, for enforcing the Fugitive Slave Law
in Champaign county, were probably cOnsummated
yesterday. Some fifteen United States officers had
been detailed for the duty, and it was supposed
that arrests in Mechanicsburg and vicinity would
amount to from fifty to seventy-iive. The Deputy
U. S, Marshal in this city knew of the arrange.
ment, and it intended to make the arrests yes
terday, and expressed strong anxiety to learn
the result.
And here we have the result in the Springfield

We learn by a resident of Mechanicsburg, that
on Monday morning last as % o'clock, U. S. Depu-
ty Marshals Churchill and Elliott, (who was re-

supposed Mr.. Udney Hyde, and Mr. Connely,) re-
porter for the Cincinnati Commercial and Gazette)
were, and of whom they claimed to be in pursuit.
Churchill raped lightly at the door, when Pang-
burn inquired who was there to which Churchill
replied in q low tone of voice--"a friend. Pang-
burn asked the name and was told that it would be
given when the door was opened. Pangburn then
opened the door, when Churchill stepped in with
three others, and informed him that they were U.
s. Offcera, and had come to search the house AT

one out for a quarter, whereup0n he proceeded to
do it, when he restrained till he paid the quar-
ter. Elliott then stuck his pistol through it, and
an opening made, they looked in Seeing
nothing, Pangburn laughed, and said, "Now you
wish you had your quarter, don't you ?" little

business with Mr.. p, and left They had afford

with the quarter, to repay him for his broken
nights rest.

not learn they searched Russell IIyde's house

Lumborton again, to which proposition he was not
very favorably disposed They told him they did
not want him. After getting their breakfast they
