Hon. A. g. PORTER as Fugitive slave.

Lafayette NOur1er-l
The following told by correspondent, 8
long time ago, at Hanover, Ind, and taken
from an old paper, gives an incident in the
career of Albert G. Porter, while student
at Hanover:
One morning there turned up in the vii
lage "likely young negro" for whom
reward Of 500 was offered. Soon Wright
Ray, and Hall were on the track-famous
hunters of men in those days. Some of the
boys determined to throw them of the scent;
so with pot of lampblack and suitable
apparel, young Porter, of smooth, round
face, large mouth, thick lips, and curly hair
became genuine African. He was caught
and firmly held by the boys. Word was
dispatched to Ray and Hall, who left the
scent when hot upon the real African, and
returned to Hanover. The countenance Of
Hall was radiant with Joy when he grasped
the arm of Porter, remarking, $500 secure,
Porter played his part admirably, telling Of
his master, his running away and his desire
to return, and that he had enough offreedom
all in unmlstable African. Hall conveyed
him to and securely locked him in room
of his house. The boys gathered about, re-
questing Hall to exhibit his negro. After
a time he entered to find. not his prisoner
but in his place white man. The lighl
broke slowly through his bewildered senses
but the situation was entirely clear when he
heard the uproarious jeers of the boys
Meanwhile the real African had sped hi:
way safely on the road To Canada.

Life and Tomb OF Columbus.
BY UNCLE WILL

There Is no career on record more roman
tic than that of Christopher Columbus. In
his life he was pioneer upon the great
waste of waters, discoverer Of new world
prince over the new-iound isles. an adj
miral ofthe naughty Castilisn realm.
He was born poor, endured the Privstions
of poverty in manhood, and attained d brief
season OF renown and grandeur But he
died in obscurity and neglect, and the mon
archy he had enriched did no honors to his
remains. And, singular continuation
ofsuch q chequered life, a dispute has arisen,
within the last few years, MS to his actual
burial-p zee, which has brought to light
some Interesting details.
This lad of Genoa had such bent for a
sea-roving life that he shipped at the age of
