BurryinE Thsun ON.

Wednesday previous to the signing Of the
emancipation bill by the President, several
hundred slaves were sent by their masters TO
Baltimore and the lower counties Of Mary land.
Every train from this city to Baltimore on that
day contained slaves, whose destination Was
the " negro pensn Of that city. Campbell &
Soo's pen," In West Pratt street, Is crowded
with slaves, whose owners reside In tho Dis.
trict OF ColumbIa; other opens" In that city
are likewise full OF the poor victims. We doubt
very much whether one. fourth part Of the
money appropriated BY Congress ($l 900 ,0O0)
for oOmpensating the loyal owners Of slaves
emaucipated by the aot will be required, N
scarcely one thousand slaves now remain In
the District-and tho majority Of those who
do remain are old and de0repid, and who in q
slavs market would be deemed worthless
stock" How many of the poor creatures have
been run out Of tho city since the bill became
\ law, we are unable to state; but that slaves
have disappeared from here within the last
twenty.fou hours, and since the bill went into
effect, is a notorious fact. We are informed
that early yesterday morning several wagon
loads OF "chxttels" left Washington for Prince
Georges and 81. Mary's counties, Maryland.
