Transcript

   The Washington States chronicles a stampede from Alexandria of some thirty slaves, about the time of the Harper’s Ferry emeute, and the Rochester Express of the 25th says that the same living freight, valued at some $15,000, passed over the Suspension Bridge into Canada, and by so doing was immediately transferred from chattels into men, women, and children.
