tpillr* is the title r.f one of the most intensely interest
A ing biographies of the day. Ii is the plain history of
an American slave In the far South, who. after two 1 r
three escapes and recaptures, finally, an old man, found
freedom and rest in one of the Northern Slates.
Wbal the Press say.
The story is told with great simplicity, hut with much
power and pathos. Whoevt r takes it will find it difficult
to lay it down until it is finished.— National Era, Wash

A narrative of real experience like lite above, will have
far more effect against slavery than the ingeniously
wrought novel, however true to life its pi 4 lures may lie.

What the Farmers say : ■
A late writer says that " the various species of vermii.
are multiplying ai a fearful rate throughout the land.
Their ravages have become n matter of serious drend.'
A Postmaster in Illinois, writing to "Costar's" Depot,
says, "The country is literally overrun with litem, (rats,
mice. Ac.") Another, front the same state, says, " The
rats positively gnnw the halters off my horses while in
the stable." Art Ohio correspondent remarks, 44 They
(the rat*) are everywhere—in the house, the barn, and
under every stump in the field ." In the South it is ■till
worse. A late order from the Navy Yard at Mobile was
for thirty pounds of the Raf Exterminator alone.
