UNITED STATES MARsnALs AsTIR.-Last week
was rather a busy time for United States Deputy
in this region. Not that they hurt any
body in particular, but as they were moving about,
honest folks were naturally enough wondering If
they had the scent Of a human track. Deputy
Hamilton was up here at Salem to serve an in.

The following notice of some of last weeks
transactions in the slavehunting line we find in the
Portage County Democrat:
UNDERGRoUND r. R.-Some little interest was
awakened at Salem, Columbiana Co., last week, BY
the appearance Of a Virginia Shareholder in that
town. in search of a peculiar kind of property re-
cognized in that State. We learn these facts in re-
gard to the case. A young colored mana free
man, being born Of free parents. a former resident
of Virginia, but for a year and a half last past,
living in this State, and having a wife, the slave

Salem. being By trade a carpenter, and conduct

Last week the young man returned from \ visit to
Virginia, bringing his wife with him. A day or
two after this, he met the master of his wife in So

Some of the enterprising oficors of the U. G..

1t is news to US that Marshal Mckee was slave.
hunting in Salem last week. We strongly suspect
: this is a SANDER. He did not report himself to
D the Bugle office. at all events. If he was here he
must have kept very shady, and done his hunting
in hay lofts and back alleys and other back places.
We shall look in Mr.. EditOrIMcKee's next local

travels. OF course his newspaper,will report news
of such general cooncernment and thrilling inter-

were so crowded as they have been Of late. Bnt
then people must make allowances, he has never
had much Of this business to do in the past, at
least not as we know Of.
