1t seems that after the birth Of the girl in quesi
tion, her mother, with the consent Of her msstefJ
married this excited individual wh3, BY is eFort5,
had bought and paid for his own body and soul,
and had made a payment or two on his wife,
whose freedom he had also purchased, and *td
was the mother of this girl before he purchased
and married her.
Tawny as his skin is, he seems to have beeh
somewhat outraged by the sale Of his wife, after
he had lived with her fourteen years, and had
partly paid f,r her. He claimed that he had 9TH
er grevances-that he had detected between hid
wife and the gentleman sundry peccadilloes, and
that according to the law in the Sickles case, he
had right to kill the gentleman, and meant to d
it itstanter. y
Hereupon the chivalry Of Virginia found safety
in the house of a colored man, drawing the cur;
tains of the windows to prevent being shot througH
them. Here was exhibited some of the tallsss
specimens Of humble supplicaton ever before
poured forth from the shrven soHl tf mortal:
Gods, men and negroes mplored to save hitn
from the wrath of this furious "cbattle."
AT length, after the crowd had been excessively
amused, and the Virginians scared, it was propos-
ed that both parties ground their arms and cotnS
to truce. Whereupon the Virginians surrender
ed their revolyers into the hands of Esq. Lee, and
the darkey his into the hands of Sheriff Smith, and
the war ended.
The Virginians pale and trembling, with the aw;
ful vision of the terrible darkey still haunting
them, and accom- panied by tho 'Squire," who was
to escort them to cold Virginia's shorsi" ahd
there, in due FORM deliver up the revovets, feach-
ed the ferry. where SO terribly were they alarmed
that they offered fifty dollars to the ferrymau hs
would land them "ssfely the other sidej" "befort
the darkey could get at them.
We are happy to say that the Virginia gen.le-
man has since sent to his daughter genuine deed
of manumission, and she is now free She is almost
pure white, intelligent and beautiful-such an ar
