As she aid so her gaze was for a moment withdrawn
from his face, and it fell—heaven and earth !—it fell
upon the face of the baron, who stood looking at the
pair with horror in his face and u torch in his hand.

In the course of five minutes. Christine west laid into 1
a fainting fit in her room at the top of the castle, and
liudulpli was bound in a dungeon considerably deep
er than the moat. For some hours his brain was utter- i
ly bewildered. So many changes had taken place in 1
his condition within such a short space that he had i
considerable doubts as to whether he Wa3 himself or i
not. lie pressed his hands to his forehead, and grade- I
ally he seemed to awake from an uncommonly disa-

that the place ous slightly damp, an in this respect
it could be difficult to assert that he was touch mis

SINGULAR CASE.
'There m.e now before the District Court two suits.
add' if the allegations of the plaintiff in butit of them
bo' proven, they will develope a case of unparalleled
hardship, cruelty and oppres,ion. The princip a l o f
these suits i• that of Sally Miller is John I.' Miller.—
The plaintiff in her petition fur a trial, represents that
she is a hative of Germany, of honest parentage and
legitimate birth; that in early infancy her parents om
igtated to Louisiana; that they soon after died, while
she (Sally) was yet of wader age, and too young ei
ther to assert or be aware of her rights; that she was
illegally and feloniaudy seized by Julio F Miller; was
converted and seized us a slave—her natural liberty
was debarred her—she was made to hold a place with 1
negrues and those bound to servitude, and in every
meaner treated us a slave. For more than twenty years,
she ;idlers, - she suffered the hardships and privations
• imposed only on the African race, and, ns she believes,
;o the knowledge and by the direct instrumentality of

freobirth, and who, in defiance of all law and in out
rage.of all moral obligation, did inflict en her wrongs
whioh no time can alleviate and no remuneration de.
prately compensate.. She further alleges that she had
- knee children by Mr Ithller's overseer, who is in
- • that two of these children, the eldest of who
• a potrs of age, are still held as slaves; that on
tth o Atli, 1338, she was herself publicly sold as a

,Ainre to Louis Belmonte, of this city, who still assumes
ilikiership i 3 her. For these and all other grievances,
titclaims from Juhn F . Miller, for damages, $lO,OOO.
The second suit which Sally Miller has brought is
-.,:. rainat Louis Belmonte, who bought her from Miller,
, ad who now claims ownership in her. We have not

The whigs console tltentselves for their defeat in
New York, with the. pleasing fact, that a majority of
the natives are of their party. and that nt the Presi
dential election they will all be good and true Clay
men. We have no doubt but they are correct is claim
ing the great body of the native party. To show the
feeling that these friends r,f Clay entertain toward,'
naturalized citizens, we publish the following rally,
issued by them previous to the late city election in New
York. •
FELT.UIV CITIZENS, AND ANERICNN REPUBLICANS:
You ore called upon at the coming election, to do your
duty, your whole duty to your country, by voting the
true born American Republican Ticket. In this ward
yin' are presented with men, who, thank God! have nn
polluted foreign brood rhuning through their veins
—men who despise and fear not the foreign influence
of this great city. Look at the hordes of Dutch and
Irish aigtististild pagabots di roaming Omit, our streets,
picking tip riagi and- bones, pilfering- ittgar - and coffee
alone our Wharves and slips; said whatever our 'sati n
cilizeps happen tOcovo in their . way. Look of the
F.ng,lisbaiad Scotch Pickpockets eta bur ears, crowd
ing our places of amusemeut, stearnboatlarafings and
hotels. Look at the Italian and French mountebanks
roaming the streets of every-city in the Union with
their dancing monkeys and ottani, as an excuse fir
the purpose of robbing us of our property the Rest fa
vorable opportunity. Look at the wandering Jews,
crowding our business streets with their shops as re•
ceptaclea for stolen goods, encouraging thieres,and
dishonesty amongtntr citizens. Look at the Irish and
Dutch grocers and rum &Idle's, monopolising the
business which properly belongs to our own native true
born citizens—(this monopoly must be taken from
them)---to a word , look at the audacious interference
of all thew foreigners at our elections!!! Can this
be borne any longer? We say NO!!!
Fellow citizens! This catalogue ofilareign . pesti
lence might he lengthened, but the time and space
will not permit it—therefore we call upon you, not
only as Americans, but os men, determined no longer
to he ruled by an ignorant, bloated, and unprincipled
rabble, to come out in your might and crush this curse
to our beloved coontrv. By order of the
AMERICAN REPUBLICAN
GENERAL COMMITTEE.
Is it possible that any man who has the slightest
veneration for the liberal principles on which our goy- I
ernment is founded, will show any couutenonco to
such infamous sentiments ? Will the friends of Mr.
Clay, who claim the friendship of the " natives" for ,
their candidate , permit such proscriptive and anti
republican doctrines to pass unrebuked. Will they
endorse the vile slanders that were rut forth to rally
their friends in New York and to make the naturalized
citizens objects of persecution. If they are in favor
of the principles indicated by the above extract, let
them avow them to the world.
Weknow that Clay has denounced foreigners in lan
guage equally as vile as that employed by the New
York "natives," and it is therefore not surpri4ing to
find his partisans following the worthy example of
their lender.
A REMINISCE xcr..—The editor of the Spirit of
Liberty publishes the following wiihont charge. We
feel disposed to be as liberal as Mr. Fleeson, and in-
Bert on the same terms
" "We shall continue an vincorripromisinc oppo

Henry Clay, a Mason and Slanekotder, and, also said,

favorite cataliJa re of D. N. WHITE & Co. for Presi

"M us te."—The &legates from this city to the Clay
Coon Conventhm that will be held in Baltimore on,tbo
of neat month, intend to take a Glee Club with
them. What disgusting humbuggery. A party that
declares its object in struggling for power is to carry
out great principles on which the welfare of the peo
ple depend, to be traveling tilt ough the co untry like a
band of banjo singers, trying to induce the voters to
support their cause by singing buffoon songs. Who
has the part of Jim Crow? If it is not already filled.
we would suggest the propriety of giving it to our
friend of the Gazette, as he is so well adapted to the
part on account of the facility with which he can "turn
about and wheel about."
