A SLAVE lately came into the camp OF
the Iowa troops at Florence, No., mounted
upon a high spirited horse, on which he
had escaped from his master, who lives
near st. Louis. Around his neck was
band of iron, half an inch thick, and near
" one-and-a-half inches wide, not locked,
bnt securely riveted Three iron prongs, OF
lightning rod size, were welded to this
band. at equal distance apart, and arose
above his head about nine inches, with an
outward inclination. The iron had lacera-
ted his neck, and the wound had partially
healed under the protection he had given
TO them by holding up the band with his
hands, during the preceding days that ne
was concealed in cornfeld, but while nd
inp the horse he could not hold 1t up and
il had opened the wound, from which there
was a bloody, mattery ooze, trickling down
mon his broad shoulders. To the soldiers
who surrounded him, with pity and aston
ishment, the negro pleaded earnestly
q Please, nassa soger, take dis collar Oh
