God frey and William T. Black, vvbo were selected by Watson Freeman, Esq.,) United States Marshal at Boston, for their peculiar efficiency, to conduct the fugitive slave, Anthony Burns, back to his owner in Virginia, arrived in town, on tiieir way; to the city of Boston. These gentlemen have been! the recip ients of many hospitable attentions on the part of gentlemen of the South, and speak of the " pecu liar institution " of slavery, as they were enabled to observe it, as entirely misunderstood at the North. The slaves of Norfolk and Richmond, Va., they represent as happy and contented, many em ployed in the tob.icco factories of the last named city, and earning from $2 to $4 per week over work which they could save up to buy their free dom, but this not be in j desired by them, tiny usu ally spend it for such ivanis as appeared to them, most desirable. On tin ir arrival at Norfolk. Va., on the 1 1th inst. the Mayor of that city, and the Pre.-ident of the Norfolk Club, R. W. Bowdm, E-q., extended to them every kindness and hospitality. For a time they were relieved from the immediate surveillance of ihe slave, and were t;.ken charge of by the mayor and principal ei izens of the city of Norfolk, who made them feel that they had rendered a service in doing an act ot justice to the South. At Richmond Va., the recep' ion of the Massachusetts officers was if possible, still more cordial'and hospitable. The principal citizens vied witiiach otjuer in showing these men, '-who had dared to do their duty in the face of an adverse opinion," t!;e honorable esteem in which they were held by the men of old Virgini i. Messrs. Dickenson and Sizer, of Richmond, were especially solicitious that the northern officer "who had braved death to execute United States law," should not depart without fecli : g that the South appreciated their exertions. Every facility was offered to these officers to inspect the instiiu tion of slavery," and it is their unanimous opinion that the slaves, from their own personal admission, are happy and contented, and look wi h disgust upon the degraded position he'd by the free blacks i at the North. I The citizens of Richmond provided a splendid supper for the U. S. Marshal, Riley, and his aid, at i the American Hotel, which was of the most re cherche description. While stopping at Richmond ! they were waited upon by the ciiizens of Alexan-j dria, who had also made preparations for the Bos-! ton officers, which they were compelled to decline. ; Arrangements nad been made there to fire 100 guns on their arrival, aod to receive them in the most hospitable man ici ; but Messrs. Riley and others, fearing that they would be stepping out of the line of their duty to stop and receive these atten tions, however well meant, were compelled to de cline them, and proceed direct for home. Mr. Brent and Col. Suttle, both assured the officers that Burns i would not be punished. They say he is a negro of! uncommon shrewdness and intelligence. He ap peared to be religiously inclined, and upon the voy age to Norfolk avoided all use of profane language. The officers confirm the statement that Burns denied 'ill knowledge of Jones, who testified to his beiig at South Boston prior to the time when it was al leged that he had escaped. The gentlemen leave for Boston to-day. New TorTc Herald. Correspondence of the N. Y. Times. Norfolk, Va., June 12, 1854. More mbout the Fugitice Burns His own Account of how he left his Master-HU Opinions of a Free CityHoto he employed himself in Bos tonState of other Escaped Darlies. In consequence of the early departure of the Northern mail, I ;was compelled to defer giving more minutely a description of the arrival of the fugitive slave Burns. A large crowd gathered on the wharf, and anx iety was depicted otj n coanteiiacce of -every one to get a peep at the distinguished darkey. He ar rived on shore in comp.my with the offi.-es dep ited to see him safe back to old Virginia, and escorted to the jail by three police officers and quite a large crowd, there to remain until his departure for Richmond. He is a fine-looking fellow, possessing a figure very commanding, and his carriage is erect and stately. After being deposited in jail, he was visi ted by a number of persons, to whom he gave in detail a history of his adventures. His situatirn in Boston was anything but agreeable, if his rep resentations are correct, and glad was he of the opportunity to get back home. He stated that he was involuntary carried off by the captain of the vessel he wras working aboard, having laid himself down on, a pile of shooks and fell asleep, and when he awoke he was some distance down the rirer in tW of a steaniT. He asked the captain what he meant by carrying him off, and the captain replied he intended carrying him to a free State, where he would be as free as anybody. He remonstrated, but in vain; the captain was obstinate, and would lis ten to no appeal. The vessel arrived in Boston, and without clothes and penniless, he was c ist ashore, to shift ror him self. For a long time he could get nothing to do and nothing to eat of any consequence. Being so long wiibout employment, and no prospects of get ting any, he began to despair, and wished himself home in the enjoyment of happiness with his kind master. ; During the three months he lived in Boston he only got three weeks' employment, and he stated if any negro knew when he was well ff, he had better remain at home, and not run away to a free State, to be badly treated, and no one to care for him. He ilso stated that he saw several fugitives, during his sojourn in the city of Boston, who would willing'y and cheerfully come back home if "their masters would receive them and not punish thelh. Altogether he -jives an awful account of the situa tion of d .ikies i i Boston which speaks bad for the generous : nd philanthropic citizens of that city. Burns left last evening in the steamship James town f r Richmond, and ere this is safely ensconsed in the premises of I, is former employer no doubt, much to his sa isfaclion. Improvement. ' Serious Charge against a Physician. Our readers will recollect that some lime in the Spring (,siys the Richmo .d Disp ich) we published an item announcing the suddm death of Miss Agnes Pharr, daughter of a Presbyterian .Minister, of Cov ing on, Alleg any county, Virginia and stating farther that she was expecting to be married in a tVw d iys to Dr. Thompson, her father's family phy sician. The grave suspicion is now expressed that her death was caused by strychnine administered by Dr. Thomp oi, and sever 1 meetings of the citi zens have been he'd to consider the matter. The circumstances are thus related by the Lynchburg Republican: I Miss Pharr had been indisposed for some weeks and had been taking medicine from Dr. Thompson. On the morning of her death Dr. T. wrote her a note, asking a postponement of the marriage, and urging her to take the remainder of the pills he had lef. her. Among these pills there seems to have been one considerably larger than the others, and this was the only one lef, Miss Pharr having re fused to take it- ; Upon this last request site took it, and in less than fifteen minutes she was a corpse Her death was pronounced at the time to be simi lar to that produced by strychnine, but there were no suspicions of foul play, until the ladies eng ged in dressing the body, discoxcred certain signs which were more than eon firmed by the further discovery of a box of ergot pills. When the suspicions as sumed a public ch ira. ter, Dr. T., demanded that the body should be disinterred and examined by a committee of physicians, named by himself, but when the consent of the parents of the unfortu nate girl was obtained, he refused to have anything to do with it, alleeinj; as a reason that he did not wish to- wound the feelings of the family. - -.- ffr The Canadian and United States Reciprocity Treaty.

Ten years ago Professor Morse was just erect ing the first experimental line of Telegraphs, be tw ecn New Yrk and Baltimore. Professor Morse, like all scien i.ic benefactors, had exhausted his means, and had become as poor as Lazarus, and a lean and hungry looking as any veritable Calvin Edson you ever saw. One day while eating a sumptuous dinner of bread and molasses under the shade of a tree, about two miles from Washing ton, Amos Kendall app oached him with such a lean and hungry look, that ha at once divided his dinner with himv and before it was concluded, he gave the dilapidated Post-master General an inter est in his Telegraph patent, which has since made these two shadows of a shade corpulent . with wealth. They now "have lands and beeves," like master Robert Shallow, Esquire. There ar ' now 41, '392 miles of telegraphic wires in this country, with a capital stock of $6,671,800. An Awful Bereavement. We have already alluded to the case of a gentleman now a resident of this city Mr Wm. Collise who lost his wife, seven children, and upwards of $20,000, in the steamship City of Glasgow. His! agony of mind under these distressing circumstances may welt be imagined. For a time he was almost threat ened with madness. He is now more composed, is intel ligent, temperate, and is extremely anxious to obtain any respectable situation. He is, moreover, without the means of support, and is only solicitous to obtain, by his indus try, an honest livelihood. His address has been left with Mr. Dunn, at the Exchange, who will cheerfully give any further particulars. Philadelphia Inquirer, June 17.

It made about six miles per hour over a cobble pavement, making but little noise, smoke or dust. It can be easily steered around corners ; and the inventor says it will run twelve miles per hour over a Russ pavement; thus superseding the- necessity of a railroad in Broadway. A Merited Rebuke Theodore Parker, G. Howe, Wendel Philips, C. M. Ellis, and other leading Abolition ists, are sending printed circulars to different towns in New England, requesting that the usual Fourlh of July ce'.ebiation be omitled, and that the bells be tolled instead The Selectmen of Marblehead (Mass.) having received one of the circulars on Wednesday last endorsed upon it as following: "The Selectmen, after a glance at the in tamous suggestions contained in the within circular, have de-med it unworthy of notice, and return it to the source from whence it came." Dead. The Shepherd of the Valley, the Caih.dic news paper in St. Louis, which created so much bad feeling in the community by its rank intolerance, is dead. Accord ing to its enlightened and liberal preachings, religious li berty was the prolific source of evil, and the bible was little better. The publisher in his valedictory, says hi? paper did not pa7. He was loosing money, and hence was compelled to suspend its publication. In this coun try it was scarcely to be expected that such opinions would pay, and it is, therefore, not surprising that the " Shep herd" got no support, even from those professing its own religious faith. ; An Innocent Postmaster. One of the uninformed postmasters, out in Suckerdotn, who found amon the Post OfReo I.-iws a olauao to the effect that "each postmaster maybe allowed two mills for delivering from his office to a subscriber each newspaper not chargeable with postage," sent his bill to the Department for delivering the only pa per that was sent to his office, and told them that, as his wife was out of the articles, they might send him a couple of coffee mills.

The Rev, Martin R. Fory, has resigned tho portion of President of the Chowan Fewale Collegiate Institute, at Murfreesboro', N.

The reading public, especially of the West and South, have become familiar with the writings ol the author of this very pleasant volume. s His characteristics are great clearness and simplicity of style, close observation ol na ture and character, and a certain dry humor of descrip tion, which isespecialiy captivating.' Hissketch of "Tom Owen, the Bee Hunter," is an excellent illustration of his felicity in this regard ; and his picture of " WTild Tnrkey . Shooting," is another "case in point."
