A colored wait er in the hotel states that a few days since he heard two white gentlemen inquire ofthe | young negro if he was a slave, and upon : the latter’s reply iu the affiritivc, asked him if he would go with them, to which the ne | gro is understood to have consented. \ es terday being the time fixed for the abduc tion, the white men, it is supposed, drove up iu a close coach to the south side of the hotel, on William street, opposite the room occupied by Mr. Roll, on the first story, and taking advantage of the temporary absence of himself and wife at dinner, called the ne gro to tlie window, and induced him to jump out., enter the vehicle, and drive off.
