Two RUNAWAY SLAVES TAKEN AT CLEvB-
LAND-0ne Of them escapes on the road back to
SIGrery.-We learn that two colored BOYS,
some eighteen or twenty years of age, who
had escaped from their master Mr. Jewett,
of Tennessee, were taken at Cleveland on
Monday, where they had been quietly at work
in hotel for some time, and delivered to their
master by process Of court. On their way to
Cincinnati, TO be shipped by the river to their
former home, one of them got off the cars at
Carlisle station, near Dayton, and refused to
get on again. The person having the two
boys in charge, endeavored to force him OH
the platform, but the fugitive turned upon
him, struck one or two telling blows, and
then made good speed for the country.
The cars could not be stopped for the negro,
and the owner of the slave was obliged to
come on to Middletown with his remaining
charge, where he procured assistance, and re-.
turned to Carlisle yesterday afternoon in pur-
suit Of the fugitive. The other boy was bro't
to this city last evening, and is probably al
ready beyond the reach of any other than
slnve law.
The escape of the boy at Carlisle, we un.
derstand, created quite all excitement on the
cars, and served to greatly relieve the monot-
ony Of fatiguing trip. The chase was rather
animated for minute or two. II the master
followed the runaway, he stood the risk Of
losing his property" remaining in the car,
so he wisely concluded to secure the bird in
hand, and then beat the bush for its mate

FURTHER PARTICULARS OF TIE BURNING
OF THE STEAMER RAINBOW Cincinnati, Nov.
24.-We have further particulars OF the burn
ing Of the steamer Rainbow. She had three
hundred and forty-seven passengers on board
including large number of coal boatmen on
the deck. The fire is attributed to incendia-
rism on the part of some of the deck passen-
gers. The total loss of lives is seventy five.
When the FIRE was discovered the boat was
run ashore, where she burned to the water s
edge. The wind at the time of the discovery
Of the IRE, was blowing stiff gale, so that
in very short time the whole boat was en-.
veloped in flames. The steamer Minnehaha,
from New Orleans, carried the saved to Mem
phis. All the steamers books were DESTROYED,
SO that no list of the lost passengers can be
furnished. ALI the officers of the boat were
saved.
