Meanwhile, several of the coored people had ent-
cred complaint against him for personal abuse,
and damage done to their furniture. He was OBJ
liged to give bonds for his appearance at tho next
court, ie answer their accusations This was a
grievous humiliation for proud V,rgnan, who
had been educated to think that colored people had
no civil rights. In this unpleasant dilemma, his
lawyer advised him TO give deed of manumission
for one hundred and fifty dollars; promising TO ex-
ert his influence to have the morfy ing suits with
drawn.
The proposed terms were accepted, an: the
money promptly paid by the slave from his own
earnings. But when Mr. Sergeant proposed that
the suits for assault and battery, should be with
drawn, friend Hopper replied, /. l have no author
iiy to dismiss them
They will be dismissed you advise it, renin-
ed the lawyer, and if you will promise to do ii,
shall be perfectly satisfied,
These colored people have been very badly
treated answered friend Hopper. If tho sggres-
sor wants to settle the affair, he had better 60 TO
them and offer some equivalent for the trouble he
has given.'
The lawyer replied, when he agreed to mann
nit the man for one hundred and fifty dollars, he
expected these suits to be dismissed, of course us
a part of the bargain. What sum do you think
these people will take to Withdraw theu,1'
Friend Hopper said he thought they would do it
for one hundred and fifty dollars.
i will pay it,, replied Mr.. Sergeant; for Col.
Ridgey is very anxious to return home.'
Thus the money paid for the deed "f nanumis-
sion was returned. Forty dollars were distribu
ted among the colcred people. to repay the dam
age done to their property. After some trifing
incidental expenses had been deducted, the re-
mainder was returned to the emancpated slave
who thus obtained his freedom f,r about fifty dol
lars, instead ofthe sum Originally offered.

Maternal Love.

The following lines, which we find in an ex-
change without credit, are beautiful expression
of the mothers love. in all its forms. Their SIM
plicity in style and thought adds to their charm.
As walked over the hills one day,
l listened, and heard a mother-sheep say:-
:. In all The green world there is nothing SO sweet
AS my little lamnie with his nimbe feet, s-
With his eye SO bright, 7lu.>
And his wool so white, @s,sr gz
OH he is my little darling, my hearts delight
The robin, he
That sings on the tree,
Dearly may doat on his darIings four;
But love my one little lambkin more,"
So the mother sheep, and the little one,
Side by side, lay down in the sun. ..s..
And they went to sleep on the hillside warm,
While my little ammie lies here on my arm.
Invent to the kitchen and what did l see
But the old gray cat with her kittens three;
heard her whispering soft. Said she:
g M kittens, with tails all SO cunnugly curled,
Are the protest things there can be in tie world
The bird in the tree.
And the old eve, she
May love their babies exceedingly;
But Hove my kittens from morn to night;
Which is the prettiest / cannot tell,
Which of the three, for the life Of me,
love them all so well.
So I'll take up the kittens, the kittens love,
And we'll lie down together beneath the warm
stoye."
So the kittens lie under the stove SO warm,
While my little darling lies here on my arm.
went to the yard, and saw the old hen,
Go clucking about with her chickens ten;
And she clucked, and she stretched, and she bris-
tied away,
And what do you think heard the hen say?
Iheard her say, the sun never did shine
On anything like to these chickens Of mine;
You may hunt the full moon and the stars, if you
please,
But you will find ten such chickens ss these
The cat loves her Kittens the loves her lamb,
But they do not know what proud mother am;
For lambs nor for kittens won't part with these,
Though the sheep and the cat should go down on
their knees.
My dear downy darlings, my sweet little things,
Come, nestle now cozily under my WINGS"
So the hen said,
And the chickens sped,
AS fast as they could to their warm feather bed
And there let them lie on their feathers SO warm
While my little chick lies here on my arm.

Oh, beautiful October
Thou art with us once again;
With the flush upon thy forehead,
And thy inger's purple stain;
With thy amber girded vesture,
And thy ruby dotted train.
Round the edges of the woodland,
Where the outer boughs are red,
Forth. by threes, the glossy chestnuts
Creep from many downy bed;
And the carved and silvery walnut
Lights the stubble meath thy tread.
Through the sere and scented orchard,
Where thy lingering feet have passed,
Mellow heaps are bathed in bushes
By thy scarlet mantle cast;
But the rich and ripened russell
Wears thy. soberest hue. and last.
Broad. through many cottage easement,
Streams the uncheckered light to-day;
Long the yelling vines grow gorgeous
With the hectic of decay,
Till the Autumn wind, last midnight,
Swept them moaningly away.
Pods are bursting in the garden,
Till the shriveled seeds are seem
Grapes are black upon the trelIis,
Ounces hanging golden green
From her apron dropping fruitage,
Comes tine bounteous Autumn Queen.
Yet, oh, beautiful October!
To the land sick one at sea;
To the desert wanderer pining
For far-off whispering tree,
Dost thou bring the weary yearning
That thou bringest unto mel
All the long and lightsome summer
have chased fairy dream-
/ have walked to see the fitting
OF its light wings parting gleam.
Like the faint delusive glimmer
OF a star upon stream.
In thy lights, the vision faded,
With thy earliest falling leaf,
From the rainbow glancing pinions
Dropped The hines that were SO brief;
And cannot love thee, autumn,
That thou bringest me this grief.
Yet my spirit IS unbrokep,
Though SO long it wore the chain
Time shall yield the dew of healing
Ere another summer reign;
Then, oh, beautiful October,
Thou wilt bring me joy again.
