Our District Clerk certified defective re-
cord to the Supreme Court, and upon that
record the Court rendered judgment. There
upon the Journal. with the connivance OF
tho CLERK, publishes the true record from the
ONCE Of the District CLERK and abuses the Su-
preme Court, charging it with ignorance,
corruption and tyranny.
Thus tho negligence Of the District CLERK
10 made the occasion and the foundation OF
false and libellous attack upon the honesty,
tho honor and the legal reputation Of the Su-
promo Court, and many OF tho Locofoco pa
pers throughout the State are knowingly and
wilfuliy proclaiming this monstrous Islander
upon the Court after being advised OF the
exact facts in the case.
The indictment, which Judge Stockton de-
'olared did not charge that PARkHuRsr uttered
and passed counterfeit coin, in the way that
i Was mangled in the certified copy before
him, did actually charge that the Grand Jury
who found the indictment were guilty Of the
crime Of sounterfsiting as therein set forth.

Extensive Arrival of Blacks from
Canada, ~ route for the Sou tIl---
Sixteen Fugitive Slaves On the
Back Track,
Yesterday morning, the Packet Union arri-
we'd from Port Stanley, Canada, with sixteen fu-
gitive slaves, who rad escaped from the South
at various times within the past two years, and
who had been living at the negro settlement at
Chatham, Canada West. Becoming weary oil
Canadian freedom, which to many blacks, en-
braces the exalted liberty Of going inadequntely
clothed, and Of being nearly starved to death,
they are about to return to the South, preferring
plantation life to the responsibilities attendant
on a state of existence for which circumstance
have rendered them peculiarly disqualified.
One family, consisting of a colored man, his
mother, wife and three children, who escaped
from near Paris, Kentucky. about one year ago,
after the experience afforded by a hard Cana
dian winter began to sigh for their "Old Ken
lucky Home" and q short time ago they wrote
to their master Informing him Of their desire to
| return, and requesting him to meet them at
Cleveland. When they arrived on the Packet
their old master was there to meet them, and
they expressed their qualification at the meet
ing in a manner which denoted q sincere regard
for him. 'Old Aunty," q venerable negress,
whose black and shining face stood out in
strange contrast with her hair, white as the
driven snow, took occasion to "'spress her
mind" in regard to Canada. "Dey kin all talk
about their freedom over dar, (pointing with a
cane brake finger across the blue water IN the
direction marked by the Union'S wake,) but
I'd a heep leveyer stay with we dem down in
ole kentuck."
The entire party took the 11:30 A. M. train
for Cincinnati, happy in the thought hat they
were going home. What q capital opportunity
it wonld have been for Peck. Bushnell, Plumb
& Co., to have got up a rescue. If was a no.
BILE fact to liberate one fugitive whose most ar
dent desire was to return to the South with
his master, how much more they might have
distinguished themselves by r~escuing sixteer
f~ugitives, who, weary of the task Of taking care
Of themselves were fleeing to their Southern
