praisement WooDFoRD felt compelled to
repudate It, aud, although II was made by
his fathcr.in law, he did not dare to file it.
When WooDFoRD asked CAPEN how he
came to make su h an appraisement, CApEN
answered that it was all the vessel was
worth. This In itself showed that CAPEN
WINS IN ignoramus or q liar and knave, in
nsmuch as she had cost more than twice that
sum, and soon aftcrward sold, under all the
disadvantages of an auction, for more than
twice as much
Even WooDFoRD, blunt as his perceptions
nrc, saw that this would not do, and he told
| the old fool who had Numbered go terribly
in his knavery that he must resign. CArEN
resigned accordingly.
Other appraisers were appointed who ap-
| praised the vessel at more than twice the
sum, to wit $3.50 for the vessel, and
| 81 goo for the cargo-making q total of
$3.50
After the escape of the Augusta she was
overtaken and brought back through the ex
ertons OF Marshal MURRAY. She was con.
dcmned and sold at auction, realizing, even
under such disadvantageous circumstances
more than double the sum at which the con
scicntious CArEN had appraised her.
A large number of sailors who had been en-.
| listed in this " Work of Help by Ar
PLEToN OAKsMITu and his brother were
secured Mt Fire Island, put in irons, and
taken to Fort Lafayette.
OAKsMITn himself was arrested and tried
in Boston for cquipping n SLAYER and cou-
victed. lie escaped from the jail and is now,
as he has ever since been, fugitive from
justice
| He has Just now tclegraphed over from
| Londo an affidavit in favor Of his quond0m
and constant friend WoopFoRD, which only
goes to establish the criminal completely be
tween them. He'is anxious 20 have WooD-
FORD elected Governor and undoubtedly
relies on WooDFoRDs influence with the
President, in that event, to get a pardon for
| himself, as lie has been anxious, ever since
his conviction, to return to this country, if lac
could do 80 in safety.
| We do not think II worth while at present
10 90 into any controvcrted matters-any
matters that are in dispute between Mr..
WooDroRD and Marshal MURRAY, or Mr.
WooDFoRD and anybody else. We prefer
TO take such facts only as nre admitted and
sworn to by Mr.. WooDFoRD himself
And we ask whether, on this showing
there was ever n time, not when New York,
the Empire State Of freedom, would elect him
her Governor, but whether there was ever
time when the great slave.lrecdirg State
of Virginia would hesitate to spew him out
| Of her MOUTH
On this SUI jcct OF the slave TRADE the
Moth and the South even ia the days Il slav
cry, were agreed, Even the domestic slave
trade was always holden in adherence by
the Shareholders themselves When the
great -lave-dcalcr, llorE II. SLATER, paid
an unhearI.ot price for pew in a church
N Baltimore. nobody could he found to
occupy the adjoining pow; and when
daughter was born 10 him without
any nos,, everybody said. 1t is judgment Of
God upon him for dealing in human flesh
and blood
WooDroRD, with tn is record against him,
could never have been recognized as gen.
tloman even in pro-slayery times, and in a
slave breeding State. lie never could have
risen above the level of the bloodhound.
" / catch n slave r. exclaimed the gallant
IIENRY CLAY; " catch q slave! No gentle
man ever does that I have seen my own
uncle's slaves escaping, hut SO far from ar.
resting them, | helped them on, aud badc
them Godspccd. No gentleman Ger arrests
a JVgitice Sidto.'
And now, men Of New \ ork, is this the
kind Of man that you want for y0ur G0rCr-
nor? Do you not feel Ike saying-again in
the language Of HENRY CLAY would
not own him for a SLAYER"
Come men Of the Union League: If you
run WooDFoRD for Governor, be consistent
and put on your ticket APPLETON OAK
SMITH for Lieutenant Governor. Pull down
your starry folds, and run up the black
pirate flag, with the names Of your can
didatcs written, not in letters of light
statue Of LINCOLN in Union square, and erect
, one Of HICKS, the pirate, who was haugel
: on Bldlocs Island, and who confessed be
fore lis ex cution, to the commission o.
; twenty murders nut what are twenty muir
, ders compared with that :" Work of Hcll,'
: the African slave trade
Come, glorious old HORACE GREELEY
They couldn't bring you to that, could they
, Oh, no How dcccntly you went of lcctur
ingl Is it for the elevation Of slave trader
D to Office, at last that you and We
y toilcd 30 many anxious and weary hours
f, by night and day, in the cause o
= frccdoml God bless your conscience
I enforced md honorable absence from
, such an infamous campaign. You once toll
o your readers that you lost two thousand sui
d scrbers by not dressing your sheet in mourn
