to secure his return to Congress. We know
that the District has been gerrymandered on

their ablest men, Gen, Sehenek, to,run against
him. But we feel assured, that with unceas-

a negro man about two miles from town, and
the eldest, fine girl of fifteen years, was
seized by him, and compelled to submit to his

and suppress that perfect freedom of political

that we are in any such danger. It's incredi-

that manly and courageous people would for
