II rrril ,l• tlr,• tr•rnily. tic Cincinnati Clironicle contains the fol lowing intensely interesting article upon historical subject It Cannot have passed from the mind of any reader who lived in this city fifteen years ago. that •ne morning early in February, 1856, great sensation stirred the whole c.uninunity. The river was frozen over solid, and the old " 3inson and Dixon line — lietwevn frocdom and slavery was for the time almost as much iibliterated as it is now ; so ;ouch so, at least, that there were frequent stampedes of the "sleek and well.fed" slaves, so poetically de- scribed by one of the g-eat champions 'of tht peculiar institution.(e in const.quenee or thi, facility Mr escape, United States Marshals and detective police Were vigilant, their "itching palms" stimulating 'to duty, as the scent CI blond incites thchound to the chase Among those who improved the opportunity and, like too many others, feil woefully short of realizing their fond expectations, were a family of Garners, the old father and mother about fifty years of age each, and a on Robert Garner, his wife Maigaret, and four children—two boys and two girls. The old people end Margaret belonged to James Mar shall, of Bonne County, liy., while the wile and children of the latter belonged to Archi bald K. Gaines, el the same neighborhood, the husband, of course, having no control over, or duties in regard to them. lint his desire exercise such righta and privileges led him to hitch up two of his neiter's 1101',eti to a sleigh in the dead hour or night, and, potting his old father and mother and his own tinnily therein. drive rapidly to the river. Leaving the train on shore, opposite the f o ot of Western Row. they all crossed on the ee and were met on this side by a colored man named Elijah Kite, son of '• ohl Joe Kite,•' of nl,,e •ennta • who bad been ',COM to MEW them to the '• underground railroad." Ile conducted them to a tenement, occupied by himself, a few Squares below Mill Creel, bridge. Ile left them until he went out to ar range for their departure to Canada. Ile was to be hack before day, according do the in- junction of Hobert Garner, but did not come until between nine and ten o'clock. when he j was soon followed by 6 posse of officers, ; compauied by the masters of-the shires The scene that followed was described by the newspaper reporters of that (lay, us oh :tined from the' whhe persona present, all of whom had interests in conflict with those of the unfortunate negroes, and was colored se- conlingly. INTERvaIw w rlf 1:01;111:1' G.lltNElt We yesterday learned that Robert Garner. the principal mover in this ankh., and whose wife was the tragic heroine in this bloody termination, was now residing in our city. Mr. Gainer says that Elijah Kite wai an w n cousin of his wife's and was, therefore, advised of their coining, and requested to assist in their escape ; but instead of assisting them, he now believes, and then suspected him, of being guilty of treacherously stilling his kin: fold back into the hands of their masters. long absence, while professing to be nod ing arrangements for their continued tfight, which should have been ready beforehand. and his neglect to return before day to secrete thew, is strong justification of the suspicion. When the officers and masters arrived iti . the door and demanded admission, Robert drew, a pistol with which he had provided himself, and said the first man who attempted to enter he would shoot dead. At the same time his wife, Margaret, seized a butcher-knife that was lying on the table, and declared she would till every child she had betbre she would see them carried back into slavery.. While some of the outsiders were banging' nt the door, an other, a Mr. Patterson or the Fourth Ward. raised a window and was shout to inter, When Robert shot him in the mouth. Ile fell back, but was not killed.

On their tt'ay down, their boat was run into by another, and sunk, and among the lives lost was the infant child of the on. happy slaves. It was reported that lime mother drowned her child, in accordance with her frenzied declaration, under fearful excitement, that she would kill all her children rather than see them all go Jowl intoslavery. lint the father protests never she attempted to injure her children afterward, although she trequent. ly repented her conviction that it would la better'for theta to be put out of the world titan live in slavery.

It is comfort ing to know also that w e still have material in the country of which to make first-class finance ininit.ters, if we but knew where to look for it: The bill, is it finally passed, has good points. Some of the worst ones, such as making the coupons payable in forei6n countries, were en tirely expunged. Another very objectionable fimmre, namely, the allowing the ecret.•try to employ tankers to negotiate the limn, and ap propriating the preposterous sum or twelve millions to gorge their pockets, was reduced one-half. Vet the sum left is so much money flung to the brokers for nothing except SO much as it cods to print the now bonds. Mr. hunt well, under the usual inspirations attend ing the passage of all such measures, seemed afraid to break away trout the custom of the Department forced upon it by the exigencies of the war. A bolder and more experienced man would ha% e thrown all the brokers over board. and made the Treasury do its own proper work. A good ti•ature of the measure is the .privi lege it otters to holders of greenbacks to fund them in a four per cent. bond. Not that much will come o f it practically, but it at least ot ters a decent 6110 W to I the world of some kind tit' redemption to the now wholly orphaned state nt that part ot the public debt. The hill also ollers to everybody the privilege 4if bank ing on the new tour per cents proposed by it ; at the same time stipulating t ha t ill the cur rency issued to new dbanks must be followed by the immediate withdrawal of just so much in amount of greenbacks. This feature was energetically opposed by Senator Morton, who is the high priest of non-contraction, and will meet with strenuous hostility in the Ilouse.

But why should I look behind in the past, when here among us I can give a friendly and cordial salute to the worthy descendant of one of the most brilliant and honorable companions of the great man—of John Jay, of whom Daniel Webster said, with unanimous applauso to his fellow-citizens, ' When the spotless er mine of the judicial robe fell on John Jay, it touched nothing less spotless than itself.'
