THE RU.NsilffitY NEGRO!

. 7 t CI 4, t,AI
(ICON AN AMERICAN raves.)
That hnwan being, who would ten the gauntlet fur
freedom, so desperately as the poor Afrkso appears
to bare done, whose story Is given below, should
sorely never again be brought under the lash of a
task-master.
• The captilniif a vessel from Nortittarolisa. called
upon the police for advisement respecting a slave he
had onconscioisly brought away in his vessel, ender
the following ctirions circomstances ;
Three or four days after lie had got to sea, be began
to be haunted every hour with tones of distresf, seem-
ingly proceeding from a human voice in the very
lowest part of the vessel. A particular scrutiny was
finally instituted, and it was concluded that some
creature, whatever, or whoever it might be, mutt be
confined down in the run, under the cabin r ; and
ea boring a hole with an augur, and dentandin!.
Who's there? a feeble voice responded, "poor avg. • .
wee" It was clear enough then that some ins-
sway negro had bid himself there before they sailed,
trusting to Providence far his ultimate escape. flar-
ing discovered him, however, it was impossible to give
him relief, for the captain had stowed even his cabin
so completely fall with cotton, as bat jest to leave
room for a small table for himself and the mate to eat
on, and as for unloading at sea that was pretty mach
out of the question. Accordingly there be bad to
lie, stretched at full length, for the tedious interval of
thirteen dep. till the vessel arrived is port sad nu-
loaded, receiving his food and drink through the
augur bole.
The fellow's story is, now he is released, that b^irg
determined to get away from slavery, he supplied him-
self with eggs and biscuit and some jugs of water,
which latter he was just on the point of depositing in
his lurking place, when he discovered the captain Si
a distance coming on board, and had to hurry (WWI
as fast as possible and leave them; that he tire.)
on
nothing but his eggmasd.biscuit, till discovered hg
the 'captain, not ever getting a d.-op of water, escept
what he bad the good fortune to catch iii his band.
one day, when a vessel of water lu the cabin was spwt
during • squall, and some of it tan down through the
cracks of the floor over him.
