day of the attempted arrest of two fugitive slaves
in the town of Iberia. Ohio, and the outrageous
treatment of the Deputy Marshas entrusted with
the duty. The Cincinnati Enquirer of Monday,
gives us the following particulars of the outrage:
About four months ago three slaves, brothers
escaped from Messrs. Reed IL Pollock, near Ger
mantown, Ky. 1t subsequently ascertaned
that they had located near IBERIA Morrow county,
Ohio, and warrants were issued for their arrest
and placed in the hands of the United States Mar
sha for the Southern District. On Thursday the
Marshal proceeded to the locality, accompanied by
two deputies and some eight or ten men, and the
negroes having separated, the posse divided into
three parties, the Marshal giving full instructions
t. his deputies who men Of nerve, and their
assistants, how to proceed.
Between seven and eight o'clock in the evening
the Marshal himself seized the negro for whom he
had retained the warrant, and after walk of four
teen miles placed him on board a freight train, and
succeeded in reaching this city. An examination
was had before Commissioner NewhaIl, and his
identity being satisfactorily established, and the
fact of his escape being proven, he was remanded
to the custody Of his former master, and taken
across the river. SO far good.
But the deputies were not successful rs their
chief. Neither succeeded in securing their man,
and one OF them most inhumanly treated
Soon after showing his warrant he was set upon bv
a crowd Ct negroes and white men, to the number
OF sixty or seventy, a part of whom armed
with guns and pistols. The negro was liberated,
