Tozuntary return 10 S1apcry.-The Sand wich Canada Vest Express chronicles an occurrence that took place in that neighbor- hood on the 2lst ultmo, which may be in- teresting to our anti-slavcry friends in this vicinity. Three slaves, who had escaped from bondage in the United States, had been working for some months past with farmers in the vicinity of that town. Their owner (for they are all the property of one man) having discovered their place of refuge, sent his nephew to persuade them to return, and to promise, if they would do so, they should not be sold or punished for their absence. The quondam slaves replied that if their master would himself come and give the as surance, they would return. The master came and gave the required pledge, and then left them. lest his presence might be consid- cred as coercion. The three men, true to heir pledge, packed up their clothing, and, unacceinpanied by yaifyewhte man, proceeded to Windsor, crossed the river, and volunta- rily went back to slavery one of them ob- serving as he went on the ferry-boat, that he never knew what hard work was until he came to Canada.
