o women with three small children

ran off from Kentucky, Intending to go to Canada. They were overtaken at a pleee of refuge in Cincinnati, and 4 warrant obtained for their arrest. When the fugutires ascertained that they were discovered, and that return to slavery was inevitable, the mother of the three children eeiied a butcher knife, and eat the throat of her infant, io that it died instantly She then at

. tempted to kill the other two. but wae

prevented. She said she would rather thvy were deed than that they should be returned to the miseries of slavery. The sieves were, in due time, bro't before the U. S. Commissioner, end a protruded trial heldi too result of whieh is not yet known. The slaves set up a claim to freedom, from the feet that they hed been frequently brought to Ohio by their masters, w hich act was alleged by them to be equivalent to emancipation. In answer to this, It was contended that these acta of the masters ware of no avail now, inasmuch oa that the slaves hed subsequently been in Kentucky. The trial lasted three weeks, and tho cost to the United States is estimated at 80.000. During the trial, no excitement has been manifested, further

than any oaae of interest would have caused not more than in the Arrison trial, yet the U. 8. Marshall, H. H.

Robinson, of the Enquirer, has kept

400 deputy marshalls, under pay at

92 per day, out of the Government fund, thus in one item alone making a needless cost of 9800 per day. But this is provided for in that iniquitous law which provides for making every Man a sieve catoher. Meanwhile an indictment was found

against the woman for murder, and the shen J was ordered to arrest her. Here arose ft question of jurisdiction, whieh is not yet fully nettled. The sheriff, however, got possession, by a master stroke of policy. The jail had been need by the Marshal1 as a place of security for the fugutives, which, being the sheriff's castle, enabled him

to keep them, by refusing to open the doors after the indictment came into his hand. A compromise wae agreed upon, by assuring the sheriff that no or der would be issued to take them out of his hands if he wonld bring them,

from day to day, to the Commission era Court. The City Mayor issued an order to tho Chief of tho Police, that, in oaae of a colli ion between the

Seeing that the President is determined to enforco tho laws (which tho Jeffersonian calls "the bogus laws of the Miesourians, for Kansasof abominable character,) he has to endorse it as good Democracy. It is now right, hII right. But what becomes of the law of Congress, that entitles "the bogus laws of the Missourians for Kansas" to the respect shown them?
