At this time the eoutary, , , adjacent --.presents the appear. ance of an unbroken wilderaess,and ilia ishOle scene is :one, el gloomy solitude. asSocivied as it is With one of the most cruet inapacres i-hich, ever disgraced the. American arms. i . ' •• . IThe fort.had originally ,iseen- erected by . civilized troops, and, when eban. doned by its occup'ahis at theicloie'd ;he war, in 1615. it was, taken posse.- sion of by the "refugees from Georgia- ? But little is yet known of that petrectited peopte.; their hisfOrY can •bnly be found in the national archive's 'at • Washington; They • had been held as slaves , in the. ,State referred to; but. during the Revo lution they caught - the spirit of Liberty, at tha time to prevalent throughout our land a nd tfled.froin .their oppress-rs and found n asylum dmong the. abOrigines living in Florida. . , During forty years they hid efFestually I eluded, or resisted, all attempts to re en- I slave them.. They were true to them selves, to the instinctive• love of liberty which is planted in every human heart. 'ost or thein had been born amidst perils; reared in the forest, and taught from their childhood to hate the oppress ors.of their race. Most of those who had been personally held in degrading servitude, whose backs had been seared I by the lash of the y savage overseer, had passed AD that ririt-land where the clanking of chaino not heard,—where slavery is not knot Some few of that class yet remained. Their gray hairs an I feeble limbs, however, indicated that 'they, too, must soon pass away. Of - the three-hundred and eleven per icAs 'residing' in Blount's Fort," not more than twenty had been actually held in-servitude. 'The others were descend; ed from slave parents, who fled from G.mrgia, and, according to the laws of slave States, were liable to suffer 'the warns-outwes to which their ancestors had been subjected. - _ It is : a most singular feature in slave holding metals, - that if the parents• be robbed of theit' liberty, deprived of the 'rights with which their Creator has en dowed them, the proriefor - of these wrongs becomes eritled`. to rep'eat them upon the. children of their former vie ' time. There were also some few pa rents and grandchildren, as well as mid dle-aged personi,who sought protection . within the walls:of the. Fort againit the vigilant alive-catchers. whn occasionally were seen prowling around the Intifica tions,,but who dare not venture within I.be power'of those whom they sought'to enalave. . 'these fugitives ..had planted their gardens, and Some of them had flocks .;roaming in - the wilderness; all were en joying the fruits cf their labor, add con gratulating themselves .upon being safe from the attacks of those who enslave metikind.'Butthe.spirit,of oppression is inexorable. The slaveholderi finding they, could not themselves obtain .pos session 'of their TiCt.lllB, called on the - President of the United States 'for assist - eisca'fo perpetrate the crime of enslaving their fellow' rnen.

The &mend was instantly rejected, and the midshipman and his men , returned to the gun-boat and in formed I.ieut. Loomis of the answer he had' received. As the colored men entered the Fort and related to their companions the de mand that had been made, great was the consternation manifested by the fe males, and even a portion of . thessterner sex appeared to be distressed •-at their situation.
