On the two following days the dogs were heard
barking in their usual manner, and the pler Of
smoke was still to be seen whirpg from the top of
the platform upwards to the sky. On tho morning
of the third day, however, tho dogs were silent ;
and even with the aid of the most powerful spy
glasses it was impossible to doscry tho slightest
sign Of smoke upon the platform.
On tho evening of that same day, shortly after
the setting in Of the neap-tide the blood-hounds
were heard barking most furously. Almost at
the same time the sentincls nearest to the shore
gave the alarm.
When the whole party came up in hurry to as

surprised at the unexpected turn which the affair
seemed 10 have taken.

NARROW ESCAPE.

We learn that free born culored man of this
city, named II .nry Price, narrowly escaped being
sold into slavery, in the State of Missouri; short
time ago. One of tho sweet and gentle laws in the
State is founded upon the hypothesis that every
colored man is supposed to be q slave unless he
can rrove that he is free AS the Southern Pres
byterian Review expresses it, "lle is believed to
have right to the status in which he is born and
the presumption Of law is that it is status of
slavery. The slave holders always talk learncdly
and warmly in favor of good feeling between the
free and slave States, and laws that shall foster
sentiment of good neighborbood. This law, rela-
tive to free coored people, is Of that sort it
is intended to indicate kindly feeling towards
white men who believe it no great crime in anoth-
er to be-
Guilty of skin not colored like their own.
L, seems that Price being in st. Louis, steward
on one of our boats, was sent of some errand into
the city, was caught by some thief, put in Jail a
fugitive and laid in Jail more than n week, and
was finally obliged to pay Sl4 fees before ho was
set at liberty. Had he not been able to provo his
condition-that of free man, he would have been
sold into slavery to pay the charges of his keeping
Such ontrages need comment, they speak so
loudly for themselves.
To steal family of free people, as was done in
Cumberland county few days slnce and sell
them into hopeless slavery is matter of small
import when compared with the escape Of fugi-
tive from, slavery l-PHtsbmgh Gazette.

THE DOY TRIAL.

The Leavenworth Times says that the second
trial of DR.. Doy, at ST. Joseph, on the charge of
abducting slaves from Missouri, resulted in the
disagreement of the jury-eleven being for con-
viction and one for acquittal but the st. Joseph
correspondent of the Missouri Democrat says, that
it resulted in his conviction and that he has been
sentenced to FIVE years in the penitentiary.
This is exceedingly hard case. The charge
against DR.. boy was, that he enticed the slave
Dick from the State of Missouri. The evidence
failed to show that Dr. Doy was ecer n the State
of Missouri while it conclusively proved that
the boy Dick left Missouri ,oM a pass from his
master, allowing him to do SO, and that John Doy
never saw him until after he reached Lawrence,
in Kansas. The Doctor was arrested in Kansas
and taken by violence. without process of law, to
Missouri, where he has fallen a victim to the low
pteiudices of the border, and has been sentenced
in Missouri for crime which, if committed a. all,
was committed in Kansas. The correspondent of
the Democrat says
"The whole arsacton is q libel upon the free
dom of an American citizen, in open violation of
justice and only paralleled by the English state
trials in Ireland.
If the Supreme Court of Missouri does not
grant new trial, they deserve the execration Of
every honest heart and unprejudced man but
cannot think the highest court of any State could
be guilty of so great injustice rs to refuse a new
trial. with the features of this case fairly before
them"

The Providence Post, Buchanan paper, has
the following pious and consolatory remarks:
Little by little, the influence Of Christianity has
been extended little by little the condition of the
African has been improved. The slaveholding
Christian has not perceived at glance that slave
ry is itself sin but be has perceived that cruelty
is sinfu', and has abandoned and discountenenced
it, One by one, he is striking off the more Calling
of the slaves shacklcs and every year confirms
the hope which men have, that by and BY the last
shatkle will be cast off,
Iltbat 60 2 Has the Post noticed the recent at
tempts of slaveholding Christians to revive th'
horrible African slave trade? Has it seen any
thing of the recent imprisonment and sale into sla
very of free colored woman, in St. Louis? Has
it heard of the cruel and inhuman imprisonment:
and heavy fine of free colored man, in Washing
ton, because he could not find and deliver up to
perpetual bondage his last remaining child? Has
it heard of the recent burning at tho stake of a
slave in Texas, whose only crime was resisting
unto death-the death of his oppressor-the mas
ter, who ra7ished his wife, and sold her away
from her husband into slavery He has heard of
that church, in Alabama, which had to buy its
minister to keep him from being sold into the
hands of Louisiana slave trader? Has it heard
of the killing of the slave girl, in Tennessee, by
an inhuman logging? Hadn't the Post better
read up the news, relating to slaveholding Christ
ianity, little closer ?-Boston alias.

black with them. The soil is rich, and we'll mat
ted with their favorite grass. Yet is all (excepf
a very little on the creek bottoms, near to timber)
eaten down like an overtaxed sheep-pas;ure in @
dry August. Consider that we have traversed
more than one hundred miles in width since We
6rst struck them and that for most Of this distsas
Buffalo the have been constantly in sight, and that
they continue for twenty-five miles further on

the Congo river, on the 10th of April. Here she
was seized by the English steamer Triton, but was
subsequently transferred to Commodore Brent, of
the United States s.oop of Marion, who. on
examination, became convinced that she was a
slave trader. He accordingly put q prize crew
on board and ordered her home. A few days be-

SUPPRESSION OF THE SLAVE TRADE.-NEw YORK,
June ia dispatch from Washington states that
owing to the complaints from the English authori-
thies of the ineffciency of our navy in carrying
out the treaty stpulations for the suppression Of
the slave trade President Buchanan has de.ermn-
ed to send to the coast of Africa and the Gulf of
Mexico all the gunboats now being built at the
several navy yards"
Mr. Buchanan and his officials do not seem to
have anything to do, nowadays, but to watch the
coast for the arrest Of few negro traders cer.
tainly very dignifed employment for Presidens
and particularly when it is done at the orders Of
the English Authorities. Perhaps, after a while

we must elect to the Presidency. Both of them

HOW THE IMPORTED AFRICANS LOOK
AND WORK. s

ARrEsrAN SPRING, Miss, June 8.
Not knowing how you are upon the slavery
question, pro or con, but believing your tulur,na
are open to truth, would say that have tLis
morning returned from a visit to Mr.. Smiths plan
tation, near Canton, Mississippi. He has sixteen
of the real bona fdo Africans, II young and like
ly. They look like cur negrCes-work well plant
corn--hoe cottOnj etc. Two Of them can do as
much work as an American negro, and POmpey;
one intelligent than the rest, can do as much
now as ordinary field hand They are learn
ing to speak our lsnguege-Pompey couverses
very we'll, They are not Wild but of the CONTRA
ry, very docile and good servants. '~
They Lave been In America some four or 6ve
months. They have the brand and marks of the
tribe from which they came Their front teeth are
filed, and when they laugh, present a novel nrs
pearance They have model feet The prettcss
shaped foot have ever seen is that of boy sciie
Is or 10 years old He is perfectly black; and
niger to the backbone, but with bedItltl fest
and hands. They are contented ; and when one
is whipped the Others laugh. ''iaas
One of them with peculiar shaped head, is the
subject of rdiculo by the others. They say his
mother spoiled it by patting him on the head when
q baby. H-r
They have perfect horror Of going back where
they came FROM to Africa. On being questioned
as to where they are from, etc.. they say from Ar
kan nsas; others from Georgia, etc. ' aoof
Mr. Smith has been offered sixteen thousand dol
lars for the lot, and refused. lie expects next
year to make much with these sixteen wild"
Africans as any other planter in the country with
sixteen tame" ones. say this for the benefit of
those on Old Caney and other portions Of your
State, who ore paying $500 for negroes from
Virginia, when these can be bought for $500 and
less. ~
Not only, then, are we more proftably paid by
the labor of the African than the Virginia slave,
but when We buy an African, we are propagating
and extending an institution which is the basis Of
our Southern prosperity. Narrow the base, and
the building falls with the first BLAST broaden il
and it de6es the tempest. s-..s
