INTERESTING CASE.

In the ship Alabama, which arrived few
days since from New-Orleans, came passcn.
ger native African, about seventy five
years Of age, who was stolen from the land of
his birth, about thirty EIGHT years Ago, along
with many other unhappy beings, and carried
into Charleston, S. c., where he was sold to
General Pinckney. His native name is La
min Kibby; his American name, Paul.-Ac
ter remaining six years in the service of Gen.
Pinckney, he was sold to a Mr.. Pratt, of
Edgefeld District, ard by him to some one
else, and so on, till at length he passed into
the hands Of Presley Hasley. Of Summer
county, Tennessee, and subsequently became
the property Of James Hoard, Esq. of Vicks-
burg, Miss. To this gentleman, he is ndebt-
ed tor his liberty, and not only for his liberty.
but for his passage to this city, and ten dol
lars for the supply of his necessities on his
arrival. Ills object is to return to Africa,
where he left wife and two children. He
was born and brought up in the district of
Footagallo, (capi,al Timbo,) so far in the
interior, that he says it would have taken him
three weeks to walk to the Atlantic shore
When stolen, he was asleep a, place on the
coast called Tamskoo, whittier he had zone
for purposes of trade. He was awsked from
his slumbers, by the chains which was being
fastened around him. lie reads and writes
his native language, the Arabic, with ease
and fuency, snd appears to have possessed
an accomplished education.
After dcyoting seven years at home, to the
pursuits OF learning, he repaired to a Col
lege at Boonda, about 900 miles east of Foo
tagallo, where he passed another seven years
in completing his education. He then en-.
gagged in the business Of teaching, in which
employment he was occupied iii near the
