, Remarkable preservation. —Mr. Gco-
Kreps and family, of this town, emigrated
last fall to Alabama. In crossing a river
m the Indian notion, they mistook the
ford, and the wagon and horses, with the
contents, were suddenly immersed in the
stream. In the agitu ion of the moment,
Mrs Keeps parted from her infant child,
which was rapidly carried down the curent
At that instant, a latge dog, which hail
joined the family’a few days before, sprung
alter the babe, overtook it just as it was
sinking, and conveyed it safely to the
shore. The horses also regained a foot
ing, and th ‘ whole party was saved. The
manner in which the dog had joined them
was truly providential. They were re
sting by the road side, when he, “a per.
feet stranger” came up and fawned upon
thew; they returned his caresses, and he
continued with th.-m, their future bene
factor.— IVinchester Republican.

J N 1818, three vessels were captured
by the Army a d Navv having 309 AF

to Mobile for ad jutallon. Tht vessel ; and
goods w re bonded, and 97 of the ne
groes were put into the hands of Benja

Caller, who were bound in a recogniz
ance of J 5100,000, or fhcrehouts, lor the
safekeeping and forth coming of the
said negroes, agreeably to any order
that the Court might make. At the IMi
rtiary term last, the several cases st iod for
trial; and the climanls moved for a con
tinuance, which, by consent of the cap
tors, was granted; and the Court made
an order; that the negroes be given to the
Marshal, and that he s-iould place them in
the hands of the captors on their giving
bonds for Hie good treatment and forth
coming of tiie negroes at any moment
that might be ordered. In tin; moan
while I purchased the right of Uie can
tors, took their transfer and irevocab'e
power <’f attorney to act as I might sec
(it, and informatiod reached Mobile ■ tint,
the representatives of the aforesaid
James Caller (who had died, did not in
tend to give up the negroes then in their
possession, in '-umber twenty sis. I
therefore took a deputation from the Mar- ■
slial lor the •.•pedal purpose of taking said
negroes. On my arrival at Ed. Su-phn, ,
I learnt that the twenty sire negroes in ti.-.
care of Mrs. Culler w ere scattered, ml
rimt she should not give them up In u
day or two however, she agreed to givi
them up, and sent to her son, Green
Call -r, for seven, who ordered them down
forthwith ; she also sent an order by a
negro man of hers to her, nephew, -U*b
erl Caller, in Clark county for fifteen
:hat she had let luin have possession of,
and he states that he delivered them a
grceably to oitlev to the negro Jim, ai d
that ten out of tiie fifteen escaped. One.
thing is certain, that Jim returned- wit'
only five, and they say that Bobby Caller
overtook them in the night at William
Coleman’s and wanted them all to p.u
back with him; ten of women they alto
said did go, that they reftTs ’d and conn,
on with the negro Jim to Mrs. Culler’s.
Circumstances coroberated the lii;:t.e>'y
of thefiive negroes, and independent cf
any interest that 1 have in the negroes as
the respective of the crptort, I fed

to offer the above reward of One Thou

as follows, viz.-—Ma-jn, Ki ah, Fungi,
Buna, San-g'a, Va-za, Fa- ma, Ser-a-imgh,

Rutherford Country in Tennessee, among
whom was the boy named Ser a rnah who

glish.—The said llimbro staled that lie
bought the four negroes from one Rob

Tennessee to make a crop, and then
designed them to the Mississippi for sale.
The above ten negroes all understand
English and «au speak it a little. Ser-a

years of age —indeed, most of them are
