torture.
"Ah. we'll. come have some dejeuner,
some breakfasts, zen"
He was given a pot Of food. such AZ he
had never before tasted; but he was 90
hungry tina he found it delicious.
After this he was. to all intents and pur-
poses, 4 negro; he did not dare be anything
else. Crapaud and his mother were very
good to him so long ~ he did not in any
way assert his whiteness; but at the hrst
hint OF this came the whip in such terrible
| fashion that 1t made him sick even to re-
member that he had ever been white.
A month went on so, and then one day
Crapaud said to ohm:
Come"
They went to a place where . man had
a great number OF negroes in a large room
or shed. =,
''What will you give for the boy?' said
Crapaud to the man.
The negro-buyer looked at John. took
him by the arm, shook him q little and
turned him about. Thcn he said:
Not much account; worth two nifty, IL
he's sound"
ooh, he's as sound as a dollar; examine
him"
The man felt of Johns limbs.
well. will you take two fifty"
'No; three fifty"
Bah! say two seventy-fve."
The bargain was struck at $500.
John did not understand what the men
were saying; it was all French; but he soon
realized that he was sold.
For eight DAYS he was kept there among
the crowded negroes, and taken up the

ming off from a brutal master to whom h
had been bound some six month"; before
John Shadden was an orphan ell alone il
the world, so far as worthy or even respect
able kinsfolk wont, and his life had re
gently been almost unbearably hard. Hi
master treated him as if he had been !
negro slave; nay. worse than most slave
owners could afford to treat their human
property.
The Journey down the river had been pro-
tracted, toilsome and full of torture for
both the mind and body Of the poor boy,
who was made to work a long. heavy oar,
the task of q strong man. Besides this he
had been beaten numerically every day
and given but poor food and worse cloth
ING. It rained during the final week OF the
Journey, and John was drenched from
morning till night. Although the weather
was not cold, as March weather usually Is
in our more northern regions, the southern
wind that blew over the river was singu-
larly chilly and searching.
John had borne all that he could, and
now he was desperate, determined indeed
to take himself and his future into his own
hands, no matter what might come of it.
He would starye in the streets of Now Or
leans rather than to suffer another day
ander Hiram aunter's hand.
He ran along the alley as fast as he could,
for he feared pursuit, thinking of nothing
90 much as losing himself in the maze of
tho great city, and while at his highest
speed he turned a corner into q dimly
lighted street, where he ran plump against
an absurdly short and almost comically
hump-backed little man. who grabbed him
with what felt like the grip of q giant, and
began to berate him roundly in French.
John was too much frightened to make
outcry, and he could not understand a word
Of what the fellow was saying to him, SO he
just stood there trembling all over. All
he could do was to gasp forth:
"Let go er mel"
John was ~uneducated and having been
reared, or rather let come up, among ne
oroes and river rats and laborers on the
wharves, spoke with a decided negro drawl.
"What for you run Ovalr 70 top % ms?"
demanded the little man, now speaking the
best English at his command and tight
ening his grip on John. "Eef you have not
ze good sense l choke some into you"
John began to beg and explain. He
frankly told his story, crying at the same |
time.
The drawf held on to him, but presently |
relaxed his hold enough to greatly lessen
the pain of it while he turned Johns face |

John was a tawny skinned. blaok-eyed,
o~urly-haired boy, but he did not look like
a negro. After he had been in the house
for a week or two his complexion cleared
surprised to see how handsome he was.
They treated him we'll; but he was afraid
to tell them hat he was white for fear that
they would follow Crapaud's example.
1t was his business to mop floors, clean
silverware and black boots. So much
easier was all this to do than what he had
been used to, and all the planters family
were SO kind to him that he found being a
slave better than the old state of freedom;

Funds for she paws Monument,

The Baltimore Sun says that 80 far
1924 has been raised in Nashville, TenR.'
for the proposed monument in Richmond,
Va, 10 JEFFSRsoN DAVIS. OF this amount
al, 1870 was raised hast week by q chrysan-
themum fair held by the Ladies' Auxiliary
Of the Confederate Home
This enterprise and hberality reflects
great credit upon Nashville, and we hope
that ~ is true that these funds are to DO
devoted to the building of the monument
here. We did not know, however, that
that decision had been made.
Mrs. JKKFRR1oN DAVIS while here stated
that her decision IN favor Of Richmond as
the place of burial of her husband was
reached in consequence of the almost
countless letters that she had received
from old Confederates in all parts Of this
country urging the proprlety and wisdom
Of that selection.
Before this question had been determined
Richmond had raised a considerable sum
of money to be sent wheEeyer the body
was sent. Other communities probably
acted upon the same idea. If so, they
should now turn over their funds TO the
Virginia Davis Monument Association, OF
which J. TAYLOR ELLISON is president,
JOHN s. Elicit treasurer, and W. d. CHEs-
TEBMAN secretary.

The Republican National Convention.
The selection Of the 9Th of June next as
the day for the meeting Of the Republican
National Convention is . proof that the
Republicans expect tohaye their nominees
in the hsld AFst.
Ii indicates also that the Republicans
are not afraid to begin she fight,
Some military men say that the attack
ing army has the advantage Of the defend
ing army. PsIhans the Republicans hold
this opinion. Tho Democrats have for
many years called their national cotfen-
tons to meet after the meeting Of the
Republican National Conventions. The
Democratic National Convention of 1865
was in session 10 New York on the Attn Of
July. In 1879 thsrs was no Democratic
National Convention worthy Of the name.
In 1876 the Democratic National Conven-
tion was in session in ST. Louis on the 27th
of June. In 1880 the Democratic National
Convention nominated General HANCOCK
on the S4th of Juno.
