The Rhode Islander

A Colored Colony.--Canada, says the New York Sun, is likely to have a colored State in that territory. It is said there are 15,000 runaway slaves in Her Majesty's dominions. All made their escape from different slave-holding States, at different periods; some have resided there for about fifteen years, but the majority for a shorter period. They are not compactly located. but scattered over a territory a hundred miles in length by sixty in breadth; the southern point is about forty miles above Detroit, Michigan, on the eastern side of the river.
