Not, howev er, by those "monsters in human form," " Slavehiolders," nor yet " Pro-Slavery Not thernaers,"but by veritableAheolitinists, who are as they term themselvs, the "ex cltisive friends of the poor troddten down slave." The slave hats beeni harbored or rather confinted here for a few days past. and is supposed to lie one of the gang re cently landed in the vicinity of New bury port, anid who are now prowling aboutt the woods there, greatly to the terror of the female portion of the community. If' we believe the Abolitionists, lie is to be sent towards Canada. as soon as sufticient tmon - ey andl clothing can he furntished for the purpose. Meantime, if the assertions of our most respectable citizens are worth any thing, he is forc*ed to submit to a dlrudg ery here, compared with which thte tyran ny under which he suflered beyond the P'ootrac, is not a ciretnmstantce. The con duct of the slave confirms this. Actions speak louder than words. Otn the above nmentionred day, he esca ped fromt --durance vile," atnd taking the road over the F~ree Briedge, ran for the woods, wvas purstied, captnred and placed in a wagon to bre brought back. The noys of Preeridentce aire iniscrultable. When wah-t in one mile oif the vilh~tge the carriagve was upset, one of the menci severely injtured, the horse came dashing at full speed into the village with thte four wheels of the wagotn, and the slave again took to his heels. Hle fled with the speed cf the frightened deer, but with far less dliscretiont. lie made tracks across the imierval towards the village, purstued by all the metn attd hoys who could be induced to join in the choese; wvas re-capttured, collard bty the edi tor of the HeIrald of F'reedomt, antd drag ged throiugh the streCets to the Abolition Hlead Quarters, wvhere it was said lie was tied tup in a barn. with a rope.

F DrTrp:-Located as my farm is, so near tin it. and thertbre, having limi ted pasi're, it is imposiblle ito keep ihrougi t e wiiter, except at great ex pense, a stock of cattle of sutiicient itmti her to furnish any consideraible quatily ot 11m1an1ure; and y-ou ilay well jwdge of the labor and expewnse .al*han lint i mannre frioin the ciiv tip my Wia, when flor each loal a icam will have to travel from six to eight iiiles-conisequitently, i have been led to iniik verv seriously on the subject oif grern crop as a manure. and to make some few experiments on the 'Wbjeer. At present. I ,hall coifiie myself to my experiment " iih the sw(i-putato, i rot decidedly more valuaale, inl my opilion, to the sunthernl- 'tates, than any liter whiclh canl he cultivated. The results I have hastily thrown together. Early in Ocober. I slectled a piece of ground cotaininV one acie o\& a half, from which a crop of hay had been jist taken, and which iad been deeply pl!odgiheti over in order to turn tinder us iuch of the siihible as possible. I sowed down this piece of ground with rye, ;i the rate of six pecks to iit acre, anl intnedimately har riowed it in. About the first ll April, 'he rye having attained ;an average height 4of t'o.t and a ha1.111 feet, it was isted down,, awd frorly-fnie horsecart loads of Co)po)1st mn;iaure fron tile cattle-pen were spread to the acre in the list, ail he ground liedded nd ltiied wiih cut brii stone poinies. They caie ty beautiful ly. but owintg to ilte excessively vet season Which ensuied. th-y becaie very grassy, anl it was with considerable dillitilty that the crop is at length Clennted wad laid liv. I con meinced digging them albout the first of Auigust lor Market; they, then turned out tie bushel basket to the taik row ofone hundred and live feet. On the fir-t September, I saw one buinhel anid a half dug th lie row. (O the Ilth, two hiusihei and title peek, and ott the 15th. four rovs were dIg., friom which ten hnth els were g-athered. miakiog iwo buhkel and a hailfta Iihe row. or tw o hundred awal telt bushels, LIniless we have ai a arly frost. This is the result of my second year's ex periment. Before using- green manure, I couhl never make a cropl of roots which would pay the expeise of ;lantinm, work ing, and :athring, alihog plainted ol the same kind of land and :itended in tile same mnner. My potatoes have been ;1ndl ate still expose;d for sale in the nar ket daily, aind I think equal in bize to any that I bave seen this year. As the season is at hand for slowing rye. f trust you will lie able to induce somie of your friends to iry the experiment. -siml cottittuniicate the resuh. This yenr I shall endeavor too tes.t tie value of rye with some oiber ropis. I thiink it judicious to aidd one oth r re mark for the use of those who may lie dis posed to try the experinent. In my rx perience, the suleriority of S-imitkern rye seed over tie Nothernt. has been filly developed. The Soithern rye continues to grou- up steadilv all the winter like oats, whereas the Nortern will remain spread in g on tle grouind. nod not looi ny uilit February.
