| The Confession of he MudcregS.--1he four ne groes, executed the 9th inst. St Louis, an ac- count oi whose fate will be found in another column, | gave history of their lives, which taken down | by MT. Chambers editor of the St. Lotus Republ- can and has been published in pamphlet form. Mr. | E. W. Bronson, Tchoupitnulas street, has copies for sale. Curns, in Exchange Place, is likewise re- tailing the pamphlet.

 | As expected, these confessions unfold serles of most nontrous vilanes is there any good req mistrust the accuracy of the statements made. Ia early life, the slave Madison the confidential servant of negro trader named Blalev, and assisted him in extensive schemes of slave stealing, and other rascalides. plan was formed by which Madis0ns master to sell him often as he coud after which he to runaway and go back to him. He was sold in this way to Mr. Clay, Washington, for $500, and after joined his master in Baltimore. He was afterwards sold for 5000 in Virginia and agaiu returned as before. Near Orange Court House he that his master robbed the vault of mer- chant of large amount of money and bills, amount ing to sboul $sl00 GOO, and set fire to the building | which entirely destroyed On their return to | New Orleans, Madison sold to Mir. Blanchard, and the purchase money, 9O0 was given by his for mer master to him, reward for his fidelity

 After this he became of gang in this city, composed of the two Buels, father and son, David | Root, Learned, Charles Brown, the negro executed 1 with him. and others. They robbed T. B. Winston Walton & Cockaigne, Peters & Willard, and others by means of orders forged by young Buel. They | likewise obtained from the Commercial Bank by means of an altered check, S72O0; robbed the stores l J. H. Field, Bienvle street, T. B. Winston, God | frey, Laurie & Small and varIous others together with the office of Jacob Barker from the latter they obtained $500 in speCie In addition they carried an extensive business at slave stealing. Such is faint outline of some of the operations of Madison. His full history can be obtained from the book

 The villanies of Warwick and Seward were not committed in New Orleans, although both of them had lived here The confession of Browns free negro places the country in possession of facts which may we'll cause pain and astonishment Up Co the day ot hS erecuion he waS e regutarly auhorse agent of he Ohio State Atlti-,Saury Society He was first en- gagged salary ot $50 per month, but was soon so efficient in helping runaway slaves to places of se- curity, that his wages was raised to $50 per month He was supplied with blank free papers, and to New Orleans. According to his statement he assisted away from Ne0 Orleans and the surrounding country about eighty saues, and from Vcksburg aud he naghborhood Sirteen In his confusion he gives the names of many of the of these slaves, to- gether with his haunts and associates in the city, This wretch, who acknowledges he committed one murder before that for which he tried and execu- ted, was regular member of the Methodist Church Cincinnati.

 We confess there is something exceedingly stari- ling in those sentiments-,he ease and facility with which slaves enticed away by these black -heart- ed abolition enmissaries and the almost perfect im- puny with which their schemes carried into ex- ecnlion may Weil cause aitfnn W Wncn one man has aided one hundred to escape, and has not even been suspected, until the secret has been divulged upon the gaows, it is indeed time for the adoption of preca,- t'onary measures that will fully reach the evil
