"be /Mine.]Rites of the Slave Tra [tio.
A contributor to the Overland furnishes a
kind of information that does not very often
come up to the daylight., Raving beenship
wrecked on the African coast, be was offered
a paiesge to Puerto Rico by Captain Scud
der, of the slaver Saranac. The .particulars
be furnishes have the - Tair of "Considerable re
etraint, and not the faintest trace of the actual
condition of the unhappy cargo is given; the
passenger's explorations appear to have been
contfned entirely to:the cabin where he and
Captain Scudder used to •°splice the Muir,-
brace." The details of the , voyage, however,
with the descriplioia of the vessel and its pre
cautionary arrangements, furnish, so far
as they go, an interesting testimony from the ,
libido;
TARING IN FREIGHT.
"John Buckraw," said Captain Scudder,
"how many niggers have you got on hand?"
"I got tree hungered at the bay barracoon,
ear, and Jim Shiner has gone up to de upper
barracoon for tree hundered mo'. I spect
him ben' to-night at twelve o'clock."
"Very good; let there be no mistake; for I
caret wait. if be don't come, I will trade
flown the coast with some one else."
This threat acted with effect on John Buck
raw, a huge mulatto, and he hastened off to
get on board the three hundred in the bay
barracoon.
,Down they came, and were about .to be
embarked, when. Sdudder appeared. "A.vast,
there," said be, "none of that, you old thief !
You cheate.d me the last time, and I will in-
spect these darkeys to suit myself."
; nebber cheat you, Massa Scudder ; I
aliva.ys gib you good niggers, sar ; but look
for yoneelf, ear.
Scudder examined the men as they came
down; boat-loan after boat-load, and with
some haggling accepted the main lot, With
exceptions on, the, score of old age or
phyaieal infirmity.
In a short time two hundred and, eighty
were placed on board the Saranac, and before
daylight next morning she bad completed a
Cargo of five hundred slaves. -
TUE "SARANAC'S" FALSE RIG.
The Saranac was a brigantine of four hun
dred and thirty tons measurement, and had
been built for a privateer. Her lines were as
fine as those of a- dolphin. IShe= had great
length and breadth of beam, with a corre
sponding depth of hold; but her floor was
long and smooth as a plane. Her entrance
was as sharp as a knife, and her run long,
keen and elegantly modeled. Aloft, her rig
was of the true Baltimore clipper style, with
short,. strong masts and enormous yards, long
and tapering, but stout in the slings . She was
provided with false bulwarks made of painted
Canvas, and so arranged that they could be
turned up at a moment's notice to the .height
of three feet, giving her :the appearance of
being a heavy, wall-sided merchantman.
CHASE BY VIE ERITISTI FRIGATE "TIIETIS." AR
RANGEMENTS FOR INOREASING SPEED. THE
NEGROES USED AS IYEIG
In the mean while the Thetis had hauled
Tip in pursuit, , and was cracking on at
a fearful rate. Whenever a squall of unusual
violence occurred, her royal and topgallant
halyards were let go, the sails clewed up in
a tivinhling,and the ship . luffed so as to shake
the Main force of the wind from the balance
of the sails; but no sooner had the occasion
passed than the light canvas was once more
sheeted home and hoisted up to its utmost
tension, while the frigate again tell off to a
good -"rap" full. After two or three hours of
careful watching,Vbecame evident that the
Thetis was gradually gaining on the Saranac.
Wind and sea had increased, and we had
been compelled to hand topgallant sails, stow
the flying jib, and single -reef the huge fore
and aft mainsail, the frigate still cracking on,
with all sail set. The Saranac was jumping
from sea to sea like a porpaise, and deluging
her decks with water.
"Mr. Jerome." "Sir." "Come up with
She mast wedges; slack off about three inches
of all the, weather lanyards; and rig up forty
or fifty boatswain's chairs; put a nig
ger in each and run them up the
fore and main stays, so that they
may be about four feet apart. Be sure and
have the datkeys well fastened in the chairs,
for we can't afford to lose them. Heave the
log." We were going nearly ten knots
through that sea way. The wedges had been
slackened, and the lanyards eased off as di
rected. A string of negroes fastened in boat
swain's chairs dangled and swung from the
fere and main stays; the masts bent like
whips, and with every plunge she went for
ward with greatly increased impetus. Tne
is g now announced ten knots and a half.
The brig rose no more to the sea, but went
straight through it like a dolphin. Night was
again approacning; the Thetis lost ground for
the last two hours of daylight,and the weather
had begun to moderate slightly. The negroes
were taken down and placed back in the
hold; additional canvas set, and the brig kept
at her highest rate of sailing, which increased
as the sea fell, until at four bells, P. M., she
was forging ahead with the speed of twelve
knots and a half.
During all those exciting hours Guzman
had kept the desk with scudder, but gave no
orders, limiting himself to assist Mr. Jerome
in seeing the duty well and quickly done.
All night we stood to the northward on a
taut bowline, carrying every inch of canvas
that the brig would bear. Daylight dawned
with a fresh brdze still 'from east-northeast,
but a smoother sea. The frigate was not to
be seen.
11'1.1( 'ATE E.QII Il' ENT—ARAS AMENT.
Thee were two captains, two physicians,
four mates, a boatswain and' his mate, two
carpenters, two blacksmiths, one pump and
block- raker, two sail-makers and eight
cooks; but all bands, except the cooks, were
compelled to assist in working ship when re
quired, The brig's armament consisted of
eight tiwelve pounder brass guns, four on a
Bide, a long thirty-two amidships, and a long
twenty four on the quarter deck, abaft the
mainmast, and forward of the cabin compan
ion way which opened toward the stern.
Boarding pikes, pistols and cutlesses existed
in abundance and were properly stowed. She
was flush deck fore and aft.
No delays are permissible among slavers.
No '"niggers,"—no rum, no muskets. Wren
a slaver was sighted, bound in, the contents
of interior barracoons were precipitated
toward the port, a bargain soon made, and
the captives immediately placed on board,
where they were soon hand-cuffed by twos
and sent down to Ahe berth deck prepared for
their reception. Rarely were two days suf
fered to elapse before completing the "cargo,"
for delays were dangerous, and in the interval
every means was adopted to insure immunity
from surprise; or, if escape were impossible,
to so change the vessels appearance as to
create the impression that she was a legitl
mate trader. To this end nothing was
omitted. Two captains ; two registers ;
two sets of papers; two styles of rig were
employed, and all semblance of slave com
merce put out of sight. With no tangible
evidence on which to act, cruisers were cMn
pelled to be cautious. A mistake might pro
"roke serious consequences. It were better
to let three guilty ones slide, for the time
being, than to do irreparable injury to one
?wriesttrader. Naval officers hal.ito content
•
themselves with maintaining a strict watch
OVer-the suspected craft, - and then it became
a matter of dexterity and chance, with pretty
even results.
THE TOILET OF TILE SLAVES.
At four belle of the morning after we had
garld Of the Thetis, Mr. Jerome gave an or
der to suds hiradred of the negroes on deck,
to get up wind-sails in all the hatehwaye,and
to place a strong guard over them. A hun
dred negoen, were brought up and subjected
to, a - regular purification; being thoroughly
donied with salt water and roughly wiped
*With bits of old top-pliant duck. • Dietz: heads
*ere thin shorn entirely bare, and they were
alloWed to remain in the sun until noon.wheu
they were sent below again. At one o'clock
p. 11., another batch of a hundred were seat
up and put through a,fike process. Etch're
lief! as it apper.ied on deck, was rigidly ex
amined by the doctors, and should there be
any indication of severe contagious or infec
tious disorder, the sufferers were immediately
segregated and placed in a reserved room
called the "sick Bay."
After the two batches of slaves had been
shaved and scrubbed, as betlre related orders
were given to leave the hatches enduring the
night; but to keep strict watch fore and aft.
AGAIN PURSUED.
Sochi after four belle, the look-ont aloft
sung our, "Sail ho!" "Where away?""Right in
bur wake, sir." Scudder soon satisfied him
self that lt was his old enemy, the Thetis.
The frigate had evidently made out the
Saranac, and was cracking on all the sail she
could bear. She was probably six or seven
miles oft and as ,a stern chase is a long one,
there stil remained time for new tactics ; be
sides, It would be pitch dark in a few min
utes. The Thetis was steering a half point
more to the southward, 'clearly with the in
tention of crowding us between her
self and the land. Once . more the foresail
was hauled d9wn and set. The Saranac flew
before the wind like , a greyhound, but her
pursuer was gradually. gaining. At midnight,
all hands' being properly stationed, Scudder
roared out,' "Port your helm; round in the
port braces; haul up.the foresail; keep her
north, by east," and we were beading directly
for the land, which was not more than -two
miles off. The coast was low, and covered
with -a dense growtn of mangroves, into
which there was every appearance that the
brig would be soon plunged headlong.
Scudder was on the forecastle intently
scanning the fast rising land.. " Luff
half a point; steady so." We were within
two hundred yards of the mangroves, and
madly rushing forward upon what seemed
inevitable destruction. The brig's head spars
disappeared behind the trees, and in a second
more her trembling hull glided into smooth
water, having:shot into the mouth of the
little, and then generally unknown, port
called Jobos.
HAVEN
The entrance to this place is very narrow
and intidate, being beset with several mud
banks,.to avoid wnich requires the aid of a
skillful pilot. It is called the Boca de dos
Infiernos, or the " mouth of the
Internal Regions," on account of
the serious difficulties which at
tend its navigation for four miles, when it
opens into a handsome and perfeotly safe har
bor. entirely land-locked, and containing
about three fathoms of water, with the best
of holding ground. Jobos was a great resort
for slavers at that period, and its existence
seems to have been unknown to the officers
of the British navy until several years later.
Scudder was fully equal to the task, for in
half an hour the Saranac was quietly lying at
her moorings. Three large lighters
were immediately got alongside; the
negroes sent on shore, and run
up into the interior without delay.
All the water casks had been ahooked up as
soon as emptied during the voyage,and were
now sent asliore. The calaboose was torn
down and replaced by one of ordinary make
and size. Royal and topgallant masts were
sent down and replaced by stump topgallant
masts. Topsail and lower yards were saifted
for short, thick and clumsy looking ones,
painted white. The head spare underwent a
similar change. Our false bulwarks were
unshipped and landed: The seams made by
the saw in her plank-sheer and main rails were
carefully puttied up and painted over, and
by day-light the Saranac . had under
gone such a wonderful transformation that
her oldest friends wouli scarcely recognize
the keen and audacious slaver. A couple of
boats were manned, and under the command
of Guzman ' pulled out to discover what bad
become of the frigate. She had run past,evi
dently under the impression of being in full
chase of the brig.
I bad been most generously and kindly en
tertained by Scudder,Gozman and the several
officers, and however much I might revolt at
their wretched traffic, I could not help feel
ing some interest in the men. During the
whole voyage I had witnessed no act of out
rage or cruelty; and was assured that such
instances were of rare occurrence the officers
receiving a per capita premium on all slaves
delivered in good condition. Having made
arrangements to set out for Ponce, where I
could find an American trader, I took leave
of my recent associates, and as I crossed the
rail, Scudder remarked, as he squeezed my
hand: "I have a nice place close to Puerto
Principe, and should you ever cruise in that
latitude, be sure to come and see me; but be
lieve me, this is the last time I shall ever sail
on a slaver."

with "manoeuvres in the Interior, calculated to

,
went," haye been foetid guilty and sentenced to.
- various penalties. Mr: Deleacluze, Manager of
the Revell newspaper, to six months imprison
ment, and two thousand franca fine, prohibition
of the exercise of his civil rights, each as voting
at elections, and eligibility; and the editors of the
Revue Politiflue, Tribune • and A renir National to
two thousand fratics fine; for-articles in their pa...
pore, and publication of the list of subscribera to
the Baudin monument; and three others for se
ditious speeches and cries of Vire le
live, in the cemetery.of Montmartre , on the
emend of November to, 500 f., .150 f. and a
month's imprisonment, and 150 franca and a
month respectively. - The suppression -and do
etruction of the copies of the papers seized are
also ordered. The Tribunal, in its conoiderants
to the judgment, cites several passeges qualified
as "manoeuvres." des: For instance` , the Rerue
Polifigue when announcing the Subscription,
said-that ' "all the friends of liberty are bound to
honor his (Bandin's) memory, and to hall with
joy this presage of a speedy , reparation which
the honor of France requires; and again, 'line°
the 2d of December troubles, you will not cease
to agitate it beforeyou and the country, which
has, without any doubt, the sovereign and lea
prescriptible right of revision. " The Tribune,
also, after describing what had occurred
at the tomb •of Baudin, killed eightden
years ago, added: `,`Let this manifestation of the
revival, so losf,g desired, of justice and political
morality be continued bar some months longer,
and the future VIII no longer occasion doubt and
disquiet; and It will be prolonged, and it will ex
tend, we confidently hope." These and other
passages of a similar import the Tribunal consid
ered as containing the elements of manreuvres
with a view to disturb the public peace and pro
voke hatred and contempt against the govern
ment of the Emperor. What the Tribunal was
bound to examine was whether the said mamea
vres were culpable in respect of the object which
the promoters sought to obtain. Seeing
that the memory of Bandin's death was, if
not forgotten by some, at leaSt effaced from
the minds '„,of the greater number by long
years of repose and calm; that the events of the
2d of December had been ratified by the re-estab
liehment of the Empire, and that a new Govern.;
went, the Dint° of universal suffrage, had fixed
the destinies of France;' that it, was in order to
protest against the collet* , and the Government,
which- it has chosen, and to disturb the public
peace and- exclto hatred against the Imperial
Government; that the memory of Baudin had
been exhumed from the tomb; and the idea of a
subscription origieating -on that occasion,.-and
announced in the journals just mentioned, was
put forth by the parties in question as an appeal
to political ' passions, and consequently as the
completion of the mareenvre and the means of
carrying it into execution. For theee and divers
other reasons founded ou the article!, of the cried
tasted journals and on the speeches of the parties
in the cemetery on the day mentioned, the Tribu
nal pronounced the sentence already'etate.d.
M. Odilon Barrot and M. Edgar Quinet have
sent in their subscriptions to the Baudin move
ment,
La Libel-0,3i. Engle Girerdln's paper,has care
fully abstained from inserting any list of gamed

"I place the coup (luta of the 2d of December,

24th of February, 1818. Between the former and
the latter. I BCC and I make no 'difference.
Either the ono or the other is unjustifiable, or
they both are really so. and for the same reason."
The statement made some days ago by ;he
Gauluie touching the discovery of a vast conspir
acy against the Empire, of the proofs of it be
ing in the bands of the tiovernment, and the re
solution adapted'at a recent Cabinet Council to
apply the law of general security (voted after
the Orsini attempt) in all its rigor, is, 1 am
sure unfounded; and It is stated that the Gauloiz
Is to be preseeuted for the publication of "fates

alarming statement L, it appears, something
said by the Minister of the Interior on the Mont

TAE WAR UPON TIIE PUBLICANS,
We are just now in the midst of a "heated con
test," which Is intensely exciting to the parties
interested. For some time past, the temperance
men have;been exceedingly active in ;;' preparing,'
to urge the'passage as prohibitory Bettor law
by - Congress for, this District, when that.body
meets.. The Sunday law at present is ,very,et4n
gent, no bar-foome, taverns, lager-beer salocine,
or cigar stores being allowed to sell 'on that
day, but it was evaded in various ways by ,"sido
door" arrangements, raid )00410,11ey gates , which
gave the thirsty "drinkists"'soine little coneolti
don on Sunday. The temperance men; how
ever, were on the lookout,and it ig said,watched
nearly every jogrloom and drinking_ saloon, till
they ascertained to a certalnty`who sold , on San,
da d a ll o. who did not. The Board of Police COM
ralistonere are now passing upon the applications
of the hotel and tavern-keepers, lager beer ea- ,
loon proprietors, et al. for renewal of their Li--
tenses for the coming year. The temperance
men appear to have enlisted the Pollee Commis
sioners on their , side, for' within the, Trait two
weeks, the applications of nearly two- hundred
hotel;and tavern keepershave peon rejected,which
has t• Produced the greatest consternation, among
the 'profession of the bar," and thoy are in sore
tribulation. Among those rejected were the ap
plications cif Sykes, Chadwick dr, Co., of Willard'a
Hotel, and the proprietors of the Owen House,
• two of the most - fashionable and popular drink
ing establishments in Washington city. The
publicans, threaten to, make war upon the Police
Commissioners, in retaliation, us soon as Con
grress meets, when they will insist upon the abol
ition of the Board, and the establishment of free
trade in whisky, * juleps, See.
'the National Intelligencer,'th-day, in a long
editorial, takea the side , of the hetel-keepers, and
says that such "blue laws"will drive people away
from the eity,particu,larly those who have plenty
of money and love to spend it in -3 convivial

to do so should have every facility and 'wean-

as mueh 88 they please, at all hours of the day 'or

Washington is the "Court city" of the United
States, and that such "bigotry and intolerance""
will make us the laughing steck „of forelgnera, ,
and prevent us gathering in their surplus
cash. It is a pretty quarrel, as it stands, but-I'

-The IFlttli:Cangirefisi coital •D Istract.
The formal notice, on the part of Hon. U. N.
Taylor, announcing that he would,eontest his
elaita.to the scat In the House of Reprosentstryos
as a Member from the Fifth DiStria of Pennsyl
vania, has been served on Dr. Reading. There
are thirty-five specifications of error upon which
Mr. Taylor will rely to make out his case. The
first Is a claim that a,majority of the votes legsily
cast in , the district;on the , t3th of oOtober were
given for Mr. Taylor. The second avers that the
returns made by the election officers of eight pre
einctsln the Twenty-second Ward, ten precincts
in the Twenty-third Ward, seven precincts in the
Twenty-fifth Ward, And five-boroughs, twenty
two town Ships; and three election districts in
Bucks county,' were orroneout
The third asserts that in the Second precinct
of the Twenty-second Ward 169 votes were given
,for Taylor, instead of 150, as returned. In the
Fourth precinct there were 420 for Taylor instead
of 419, and 170 for Reading, instead of 171, as re
turned, Infthe Ninth precinct there is claimed
one additional vote for Taylor. The siziti,item
claims a majority for Taylor In the Twenty-sec
ond Ward of 893, instead of 880, as retained:
The seventh says"that in the Third precinct of the
Twenty-third Ward 269 votes were falsely re
turned for-Taylor, instead of 209, which were
really cast.: In the Seventh division of said
Ward one youte more was counted for Reading
than-he really received. The ninth slieclfica
lion fs. that Taylor's majority in the Twenty
third Ward is only 441, Instead of 495,as returned.
In the Tpth precinct of said Ward five votes
cast for Taylor were not duly returned -and
counted.
Tbe elevtnth charge is that in each of the elec
tion divisions of the City wards and ooroughs.
and townships of Bucks county, on the 13th o:
October, many persons voted illegally, and that
their votes were counted for Dr. Reading—far in
excess of Cite majority by which he was returned,'
as elected. ' Many persons wore allowed to vote
who were not qualified, or who falsely per
eonated nullified voters, and that such . ' votes ,
were taken and counted for Dr. Reading. • The
thirteenth charge is that many persons, 500 or
more, were allowed to vote on fraudulent certifi
cates of naturalization, all of which were re
turned and counted.
• The fonrteanth specifies that In the Fourth
precinct of the Twenty-fifth Ward 1.50 votes were
received by the election officers in wilful viola-.
Lion of law, miscounted for Reading, from per
sons whotar names were not on the lists fur
nished by the Commissioners, without requiring
proofs of residence or right to vote, and that the
election laws were violated In almost every par
ticular, with the intent of preventing an honest
expression:of 'the popular will; and Mr. T. de
mands that the whole vote of said precinct shall
be stricken from the general return and disre
garded. - (The vote of.this precinct was returned
48 for Taylor and 501 for Reading.) The recap
, tion of numerous other fraudulent votes for
Reading in several Wards is charged in subie
(Petit specifications.
ThOwenty-fifth charge is that, in the town-
ship of Durham, fraudulent votes to the number
! of 95 were taken and - counted for Reading.
' Thirty fraudulent votes are attributed to Milford,
and it is further charged that in Mllford the votes
Hof two qualifiedelectors. wifo woittd have !voted
for Taylor, were corruptly refused by the elec
tion.. aficera, and should now be added to the
general return. The next six charges specify in
s general terms'the reception of illegal votes in the
several townships and boroughs of Bucks county.
The-thirty-third asserts than in West Rockhill
one John Ken, constable, who was In the elec
tion room w.lle the officers were absent at dinner,
"did fraudulently put Into the box containingthe
county tickets not less than fifteen tickets con
taining the name of Dr. Reading for the office of
member of Congrees," all of nanch were counted
and returned for him; and that the election officers
of that township wantonly destroyed and refused
to count the ballot cast for Mr. Taylor. The thirty
fifth specifies that in the township of Bentialeta
seven -votes were east for Taylor that were not
counted, and that ten tickets or more containing
the name of Dr. Reading were traadniently
placed or stuffed intalhe ballotibqx and counted
in his favor. The notice closes with a further
assertion that at the said election Caleb N.Taylor
was duly elected and is legally ca titled to repre
sent the Qualified. electors of the district

SAN Josn, Nov. 10.—A revolutionary move

ers. Under these circumstances, General Lorenzo
Salazar chief in command of the troops, was ap

Volio, was easily lea to adopt the plan proposed.
