Fbk NkoAo ailom We were informed a few
day ago. that a vessel from Philadelphia arrived at
this port With crew of free negro ailors, seven or
eight in nuaafcef. In a population like ours, it may
sely be aeMMpd that they are dangerous visitors.
They are oflbrae, all of them, from the very nature
of their p'oafgeiL, abolitionists, sjftd have the best op
portunity to inculcate the slaved with their notions.
More they enjoy, ass ailors, faeilittes of aiding their
escape to the North or other free soil. .
Mr e have turned to the laws of lie State to see if
they afforded no remedy in such oases. We regret
to add' that they do not. There are provisions strin
gent enough against frefftpagroes generally ; huteuri
oosly indeed, these sailors of that class are czpretalg
excepted. See section 68, page 588, Revised Statutes.
We hope the next Legislature will attend to ibis
subject. It is a matter of large concern to all the
seaport8 of the State, and in fact to the State gener
ally. One remedy, strictly constitutional, would be
j to subject every vessel employing or importing such
I persons to i quaratine of.twenty days, and that such
i part of the crew should not be permitted to come on
j shore under any pretence whatever. We would pre
j fer a sharper remedy: that is, whenever sueh persons
; arrive at the wharf, it shall be the duty of the corpor
: ation officers to seize them and confine them in jail,
I until the vessel is reads to depart. ,
We are glad to learn that the Patrol of our city,
which consists of energetic men have pretty well
supplied fhe defect of the law. One instance has
just come to our ears. A few days ago, they found
a sailor of this description in the street using imper
tinent, if not seditious language, chastised him, jail
ed him, and when let out, chastised him again. The
flogging was inflicted in both rases by s slave, and the
witnesses assert that it was never belter done. This
I may be Judge Lynch's Law, but we think it a very
good one. Nor has the patrol stopped nere. iney
have extended their services into the tribe of free ne
groes who have swarmed here from other sections and
squatted in the perlieus of the city, and already have
and now are in the act of abating much of that nuis-
f ance. The thanks oi the public are oue io mem.
I We repeat, that the next Legislature should take
decided action on this subject; and we commend it
especially to the members of this county.

Burr was at the height of his power, and wearing the

Just befox Uavmir the UottSa, Colonel Burr said to
the youth, in a low tone of voice, " Put a shirt in your
pocket come to New York, and inquire ior Aaron
Burr, he will take care of you, " and immediately
mounted his horse. Several months went by, and
the circumstance we have related, passed from the
mind of Col. Burr, when one morning a raw country
boy was ushured into the breakfast room, who in
stantly puitai out a nicely rolled up package from
his pocket awQ laid it on the table. Col. Burr opened
it and was surprised to find it contained nothing but
a coarse cotton shirt, which, he was then reminded,
he had desired should be brought him at the metro
nolis, from such a village. The bearer was young
Vanderlyn, and from that day his better fortune com
menced. Under the patronage of the Vice President
W the United States, he was sent to Italy, where he
completed bis studies, and prepared himself for those
greater labors, which have since given him a place in
the first rank of our native artists.
A Free State. We were cognisant of a little in
cident lately that puts in its true light the position of
colored people in tbe 8o-calledt free States. An old
man who had been for many years the slave of Mrs.
Moore, of this county, but who is now free, and who
has always borne a most excellent character, took it
in his head some months ago to move 10 the free State
of Ohio. Before his departure we had several con
versations with old George on the subject, in which
we tried to dissuade him from going. We told him
that we were thoroughly acquainted with the sit-

place, and obliged to support them in sickness and
old age; that they could not vote; that they could
not enter into white society ; that public opinion would
not permit their following any employments but those
of the most menial description in fact we explained
to George what we knew to be the true state of the,
case. He thought otherwise ; said he wanted to buy
a farm and live like " white folks;" that in tact he
was determined to try Ohio, &c. We then told him
that as he had his mind set on it he had better go, tell
ing him at the same time that we had no doubt but
that he" Would return in a Short time, to end his days
in peace and happiness in the old North State. Oar
prediction was verified sooner than we anticipated.
Georpe just touched on the free soil of Ohio, saw the
degraded state of the people of his color on that free
soil, turned on his heel and came back just as fast as
he could, with the remark that he could not live there
atstnvand that colored people are thought no more of
in that country than does.

Ma. Fillmore. It is not probably known in this
part of the World that Mr. Fillmore owes his eleva
tion to political office fo the Anti-Masonic party.

village, there resided a jnrfWer, nut little known
in the community, save at a younMnn who had

manner in which htfeonducted himself, being always
at his officce and never mixing in society. 1 his

ability than he was previously thought to possess,
and after several times being re-elected he was taken

we had this statement, from the most rspectable au
thority, and as a matter of some interest, we determ

vMr. Fillmore lives a very mured life when at home,
ana has the name of bsing a most unsocial being.
He has never been known to mix witb the people of
BuffaTe, and our informant said, seldom or never vis

MOUNTAIN HOTEL,
MO RCA 3 TO ft, Bnrke Go. Iff. C.
wh THE Subscriber, thankful for the very liberal pat
ronage heretofore received, would now inform the
that his House is still open, and that his accommodations
(heretofore limited) are now enlarged. He has erected
a row ef Offices for Professional gentlemen, together
with a commodious Hotel, all of which is entirely new.
The location of the MOUNTAIN HOTEL commands
the finest view of the mountain scenery in the place; and
is removed from the noise and uproar of a Court-yard
and the Public Square, and yet sufficiently near for all
the purposes of business.
The subscriber promises to spare no pains to provide
the invalid a comfortable Summer Retreat, and to gen
tlemen of pleasure and business a desirable Boarding
House. J. M. 'HAPPOLDT.
