TIMES BEFORE THE WAR.
ASTI-SLAVERY IMIMISCEINCES.
Gen. James S. Brisbin writes to
the Chicctgo Tribune concerning the
late anti-slavery re-anion, and he
takes occasion to add some valuable
and very interesting reminiscences of
his own knowledge. Why did not
the i old man Brisbin, when talking
about his dead friend,' Gamaliel
Bailey, also tell ns of the under
ground railway, and his connection
with it ! ? How, in the days of slavery,
he and Levi Coffin brought up ne
groes from
boxes,
and Nashville
in store. boxes, labeled, "Cotton
Picker," " Cotton Planter," " One
Cotton Machine," etc.? How, on
one occasion, at Louisville, when the
steamboat hands rolled a package on
the wharf,the nigger sloshed about so
he broke the box and' rolled out, to
the astonishment of the Itentuckians,
whd never afterward would allow - any
Southern package consigned to Levi
Coffin to pass without a careful ex
amination ? Why, too, did not the
Doctor tell us of the destruction of ,
the Abolition newspaper' at Coving
ton,Kentuciy,and.how it was pitched
into the Ohio river by a mob? I
should have liked, also, to have heard
Levi Coffin explain, as he once did
to me, tie difficulty of hiding away
niggers and still telling the truth
when -the Marshal came huntiifg for
theni • -
[Scene—Before the war ; a house
in Cincinnati. Twitisnegroes, newly
arrived, and evidently plantation
hands, eating heartily in the kitchen.
Two planters and the Marshal 'of
Cincinnati coming hastily up the
street. A lady (Aunt Katie) enters
the parlor hurriedly, and addressing
a broad brimmed Quaker, said:]
"Levi, make thee haste ; I ime
strange men coming with thit, pesti
lent Marshal." •
(Levi goes out and meets the. Men
at the gate.)
Marshal Good morning, friend
Coffin; we are Seeking for two runa
ways. T
Coffin—Two escaped slaves the©
Wcaild re-capture?
Marshal and both ownera—Yes,
yes. Can you tell us where they are?
Coffin—Was one boy very blaok
and rather heavy set, the other yel
low and but slightly built ?
Both owners—Yes, yes! You, de,
scribe them exactly. ,
•' Coffin—l saw two such boys not
half an hour since pass this gate ;
and if you haste you may yet over
take them at the depot before the
train leaves.
Away go the marshal and the
slave-owners, while Coffin entert the
house, and, addressing his wife, says:
" Mark, Katie, I did but say the
bop', passed the gate, but said not
whether they went in or out: (to,
hurry them with their meal, while I
hitch up the old gray horse, and
drive the poor souls a station oa two
beyOnd the city, where theycan em
bark with safety."
It would he interesting to know
whit has become of the old white
horse. He must 'have died long ago ;
and if ever the colored people go to
erecting monuments to men whol set
the r free, they ought not to forget
the faithful old beast who hulled
moe than three hun'dred of their
race on their way to freedom.' It
nr ,
wo 'ld have been almost worth a trip
to hicago Co see the living actors of
L•' le Tom's Cabin, and have gazed
on e more on the benevolent faces of
`Lei Co ffi n and his old wife, Aunt
Ka ie, he now over 73 and she 71
ye sof age. Coffin was the leading
spirit of the underground railroad,
and really the president of that pe
culiar institution froth 1836 to 1863,
when it ceased to be necessary,' the
tit:roes being set tree by Abraham
• coln, except those in Kentucky,
where a branch of the mysterious
road, with Gi3neral.Burbridge, John
M. Palmer and myself as conductors,
was operated as late as 1864 an&
1865.. Mr. Coffin went to live in,
Cincinnati, and often had at his house,
and secreted about the city, as many;
as eight fugitive negroes at one time.,
Inl a single year he forwarded to free
dop 189 slaves; and during the thir-,
tyiftve years of his active connection
I I ' c a u s e,Coffi n
'fed,
1
with the i
lintillavery Co
'fed, clothdd, ash eftered, an, oven
aided to scapel over 3,000 I slaves.
Even after[ the war he did not cease
his exertions in behalf of the; negro,
but collected Imeney, bOth in this
,country and England, and forwtuded
thousands of cases of shoes and cloth
ing, and Acne al food, all,
,over the
south, I waa i n n •Kentricy,l and I
can testify to, the great good the
Anti-Slave r y_ 'ety did -"in helping;
koc.i
along the poor negroes of that State.
Why did not Levi. Coffin gAi',o 4 2# a
full account of I his anti -slavery expel - -
rience?' It wind& have'"fortified an
intensely interesting and instructive
page in the piodeedings of the late
cOnventioi _ 'pie attendance of '

" The majthityl have rights and def-
I tie's, and I trut there .is fidelity
" enough tothemselves, to_their piin
ciples, and 1
the„conntry,'in the major
ity to sten together at all hazardi,
and crash this factions minority:"
Instantly Mr. Wade is on his feet,
and shakig hiS fist at Toomba, roars
out: " Hate a bare, sir ; have la car,
sir ; you cr't Crash me nor thy peo
ple. You an never conquer ri_ ,s • 'we

' IcOmpromise Or 'be

and exci inetit,l and one Of , those
t
/violent scenes Iso common in those
days; but 31r. Wade stands firni, and
bears his Stated proudly forivard in
the face of the I whole slave power!
It is a h t da,T in the Senate, and
everybody 's intid. Wade. has just
collided with Douglass, and Pugh,
Wade's owxi ' olleague, comes to'the
help of the great -Illinoisan. Per
haps he thMks' i :tow is the time to
crush the Ohio. abolitionist who' over
shadows hra,in. the Senate. I At all
events, Pu h, who is a , man of both
ability an 4 reepectabilitY, riles and
taunts Wade with a snestion relatiVe
to his bell f in( tie common brother
hood of ankind. "1 hav!V' says
Wade, 11 waysj heretofore believed
in the doctrine of the Declaration of
Independence ,1 that all men are horn
free and e4uall but of late it 'appears
that some i Men are borri slaves, and,
I regret td say, ithey are not black,
so all , the world might kno w them."
As he says thia Wade levels his finger .
at Pugh, and for several moments
stands pointing at him in silende,
With a scowl'and expression of fero
cionsnesS never seen on his face, be
fOre. Slowly the index finger falls,
and the burly Senator sinks back into
his seat a - id 'profound silenc e in the
chamber. S. 1
The K sas-31ebriska bi ll is' up,
and Wad 'has i past said: 1 / I know
very well yith what a yell of triumPh

-- "Do you know what is going bn
there?" [Laughter]. , , 1 ' 1
SenatorlWade—" I do riot pretend
to knew preciaely what is on ;foot
there. but I think it is pretty evidnt
that there is a free communication
between this, chamber and Purga
tory, and, unless I am greatly, mis
' taken, I see the' dwarfish medium, by
Which that Communication is kept
up." [GOat; laughter, and! a voice
on the Southern side, "I griessle ts
got yon, Brofkri."3 , 1
, The same day. Badger, a Senator
front. North Carolina, is drawing a
slowing i ctnre of Slavery. IHe says
halms b e n nursed by a black wo
man, and grOwn from childhood to

his oldli ck niatiimy, and now, if be

ceed in Prohibiting slavery there, he
cannot take his_old mammy With him.,
Turning to Mi. Wade, he says, piain
,taively, "'Surely, you will not prevent
me from
. t A ting my old mammy With
me ?" " itainly not, replies Wade,
with a ludicrous tone of voice; 1 but
that is iiotj he • difilcultY with Ithe
Senator. 1 It is because, if weake
