moment having passed by. the mother sesD7ef reTy

" RED from the house Of bondage" For the first
time in her life sbe could look upon herself and
children and feel free
having felt the iron in her heart for the best hsH
Of her DAYS having been sold with her Children on
the auction block-haying had one of her children
sold far away from her without hope of ever zee
ing him agaIn-she very naturally and wi.eiy con
euded to 20 TO Canada, fearing that if che re
aimed in this city-as some assured her she could
do With entire saiety-ihst she might again find
herself in the clutches of the tyrant from whom
she had fed.
But. few items of what she related concerning
the character OF her master. Within the last two
years be had sold all his slaves-between thirty
and forty in Dumber-hsying purchased the present
ores in that space of time.
She said that before leaving Wa rngtOn, coming
on the cars and at his faiths r-lnlaws IN tnls city
plumber of persons had told him that in bringing his
slaves into fenBsy lvania they would be free;
When tOlo at his is:her-in laws, a. she overheard
it, that he "cOuId not have done worse thing.
&c. he replied that Jane would not leave him"
Asmucb. however, as he affected to have such
implicit confidence il Jane, he scarcely allowed her
to be cut of his presence moment while IN this
CITY. To use James own language be was on
" her heels every minute, fearing that some one
might get 10 her ears the sweet music OF freedom.
BY the way, Jane had it deep in her heart before

New-york, if disappointed in Philadelphia.
at Bloodeood's after having been belated and
left BY the o'clock train, while waiting for the
o'clock line, his appetite tempted him TO take
basiy dinner. So after placing Jane where he
thought she would be pretty secure from EVIL
communication" from the colored walters, and
after giving her double c0unselling, ne made his
way to the table did not remain but little while
however before leaving to look after jane finding
her composed, looking over banlster near where
be left her, he returned to the table again and tn-
isbed bis meal
But alas, for the stakeholder Jane had her
d" top eye Open" and in that brief space had ap-
pealed to the sympathies of person whom she
ventured to trust, saying " and my children are
" slaves, and we want liberty" am not certain,
but suppose that person, in the goodness of bis
heart was the cause of the note being sent to the
AntiSloyery Office, and hence the result.
As to her going on to New-YOrk to see her
friends and wishing to return to her three children
in the South, and bis going TO free her, &c Jane
declared repeatedly and very positively, that there
was not a particle of truth in what her master
said on these points. The truth is she had not the
slightest hope Of freedom through any act OF his.
She had only left one boy in the South, who had
been sold far away, where she scarcely ever heard
from him, indeed never expected 10 see him any
more.
In appearance Jane is tall and we'll formed high
and large forehead, of genteel manners, chestnut
color, and seems to possess, naturally, uncommon
good sense, though of course see has never been
allowed to learn to read.
Thus l have given as truthful report as ] am
capable Of doing, of Jane and the circumstances
connected with her deliverance. w. STILL.
p. S. OF the FIVE colored porters who prompt
ly appeared, with warm hearts throbbing in
sympathy with the mother and her children, too
much praise cannot be expressed on their behalf
In the present case they acted noby, whatever may
be said of their general characte., of which l
know nothing. How human hearts who have
ever tasted oppression, could have acted different
" under the circumstances / cannot conceive.
