Committed to Castle Thunder.

--George Drew, convicted some weeks since of stealing four cows, the property of Dr. F. B. Deane, and ordered to be sold into slavery, was arrested yesterday afternoon and committed to Castle Thunder on the charge of aiding and abetting in the escape of Jack Clark, a prisoner in the hands of the guard.--Drew, who, before his trial by the Hustings Court, was considered to be a white man, became the property of William Peasley at the sergeant's sale, ordered by the court, and only a few nights since his reputed master was confined in the Castle for the same offence with which he is charged.
