The Abolitionists' Cargut.—A negro man named Lewis, belonging to Mr. McKain, of Mobile, was a short time since enticed from thence by some blacklegs, whom he accompanied to this city. He was here arrested, brought before the Recorder, and put on board a vessel to be sent home at his request. On application of Counsellor Sedgwick and several philanthropists, a habeas corpus was granted by Judge Oakley, and Lewis brought up yesterday. The claimants having been duly cited to prove his identity, Mr. Sedgwick rose to say he appeared as counsel for Lewis, when L. replied in substance, "no, you are mistaken, I want no counsel. I've been in New York long enough—and now I want to go home to Massa McKain—I've seen enough of New York niggers, and they aint half what they are crack'd up to be. So, there's no use in saying any more!" It is unnecessary to add that the request of Lewis was granted, and he is now on his way to Mobile.—New York Star.
