WHERE. THE SYMPATHY IS FOUND. - A
. few,
days since the feeling•of the ccsentimental par
ty" were appealed:, to. by “Occasional" from
Washington, to "save the nbgro, "Sam's" wife,'
from tieing .sold, into Southern • slavery. The
money, $BOO, must be raised before the 'first-of
April, or Sam's wife was'. a segoner." • The'
rich Republican M. C's. were appealed to, find
in two weeks limed one hundred' and thirteen
dollari and thirteon cents. Thus tile, case rest:.
ed upon the 31st' of. March, and Samis wife'was
to start the next,merning. At.this time, half.
a dozen Southern gentlemen, and all slave . hol.
ders‘,.,while discussing the merits of sparkling
.Catawba at NV : Wad's casually learned hoW the.
affair stood ,' took up a collection and 'raised
among themselves the $OB6 87, and restored
"Sam's" wife torle•tirms of her sable husband.
The Abolitioniatdassert now that the reason
that they did not raise the money, • was that
they are opposed to buying slaves.—N. Y. Ex
