nty,
Maryland,--taken to _Harrisburg_, before United States
Commissioner McAllister and by him consigned to slavery.

_Judge Denning_, of Illinois, discharged a negro brought
before him as a fugitive slave, on the ground that the
Fugitive Slave Law was unconstitutional.

_Two alleged slaves arrested_ at _Columbia, Penn._, on
warrant of United States Commissioner McAllister,--claimed as
property of W.T. McDermott, of Baltimore. One was carried
into slavery, one escaped. (November, 1851.)

_Near New Philadelphia, Maryland_, a woman, married to a free
colored man, with whom she had lived ten years, was arrested
as the slave of a Mr. Shreve, of Louisville, Kentucky. She
was taken back to Kentucky.

RACHEL PARKER, free colored girl, kidnapped from house of
Joseph S. Miller, West Nottingham, Penn., by the "notorious
Elkton Kidnapper, McCreary," Dec. 31, 1851. Mr. Miller
tracked the kidnappers to Baltimore, and tried to recover the
girl, but in vain. On his way home, he was induced to leave
the cars, and was undoubtedly murdered,--it was supposed in
revenge of the death of Gorsuch at Christiana. Mr. Miller's
body was found suspended from a tree. A suit was brought in
the Circuit Court of Baltimore County, for the freedom of
Rachel Parker, Jan. 1853. Over sixty witnesses, from
Pennsylvania, attended to testify to her being free-born, and
that she was not the person she was claimed to be; although,
in great bodily terror, she had, after her capture, confessed
herself the alleged slave! So complete and strong was the
evidence in her favor, that, after an eight days' trial, the
claimants abandoned the case, and a verdict was rendered for
the freedom of Rachel, and also of her sister, Elizabeth
Parker, who had been previously kidnapped, and conveyed to
New Orleans.

--> McCreary was demanded by Gov. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, to be
delivered up for trial on a charge of kidnapping; but Gov. Lowe, of
Maryland, refused to surrender him. See _Standard_, July 2, 1853.

JAMES TASKER, _New York City_, (Feb. 1852,) arrested through
the treachery of Police Officer Martin, and brought before
United States Commissioner George W. Morton, as the slave of
Jonathan Pinckney, of Maryland. He was given up, and taken
back to slavery.
