The best of the slaves now go to Niffee, to be 
there shipped for America : they are mostly males, 
of the class 2d, 3d, 4th, and are minutely ex- 
amined before departure. From all reports, there is 
an immense traffic of slaves that way exchanged 
against American goods, which are driving out of 
the markets all the merchandise of the north.
