From The Anti-Slavery Bugle.
A Tale Of Sorrow.
Maetinsvilie, Belmont Co., (0„)
July 14,1854.
Yesterday, we visited ao aged colored wo
man, living' here, who has bitterly experi
enced the inflictions of slavery, in all its
“damned sacraments of sorrow.” Raised
in Loudon County, Virginia, she was early
married, as slavery understands this institu
tion, and for some years lived with her hus
band, until the interest of the master required
a separation ; when (he husband was sold
for the seuthern market, and from the lime
he was started in the slave gang she has
never heard from him. For weary years she
mourned lor him, and sorrowed ns those who
have no hope, wondpring why such miseries
were visited upon her who had labored so long
and earnestly to do all that was just and right,
while her tormentors lived in idleness and
ease, safband saved from those dreaded evils
(hat rankle deepest in the life and heart of a
aitvs.
At (he command of her master, she was
again married, and with her husband lived
on the same plantation, until they were sold
and removed to Western Virginia, where for
many years they lived and raised a large
lamily of children, that were torn from them,
one after another, sold, and driven fat away,
where there could be no interchange of affec
tion, or kindly sympathy for mutual sorrow.
Falling into kind hands, when far advaced
in yean, they suceeded in purchasing them*
telvea, and, by a course of rigid economy
toil arduous toil, were enabled to pay the full
mm demanded by their claimant. Thus,
slier being robbed of a long life of labor, of
Dine children, whom tenderest lore and bit*
leresi sorrow had endeared to them, with
intellects crushed and bodies enfeebled by
fitly years’ hard labor, such as is known only
in slavery, they procured the acknowledg
ment in this Christian land that they bad the
ngbt in themselves to their own "labor, their
own bodies and souls—that they were free
m ggert. Immediately they-set about ear
ning money to purchase some of their chil
oren, whom they hoped were still within their
reach, and formed bright anticipations of
some day living with them in a home pur
chased by (heir own industry, where at last
iney might safely lire and quietly die.
Animated by these hopes, they Commenced
ins anew, in comparatire happiness, free at
least, as they supposed, from any new and
limner infliction of slavery.*, But, alas for
inem 1 their happiness was only a transitory
oream, from which they soon awoke to most
painful consciousness. Scarcely bad they
commenced to prosecute the plana they
lormea, when the husband was kidnapped
irom one of the rirer boals on which he was
employed, and for twelve long and bitter
rears he has been subjected to all the hor-
rors of slavery. Just as he passed the cup
°' iiDcrtv to his lips, it was stricken from his
na "c, and in its stead he has been compelled
10 drink the bitterest chalice that human
■ease can suffer.
IViih more than a widow’s sorrow has ibis
•ne mourned for him, toiling on through a
°rearv life, vainly hoping for hia return, to
Jiir net in carrying out their fondly cher
imec nope of a home and happiness with
children ; but no tidings ever came to
tiner ner, and through these long years she
nu oven left
“ Alone to beer
* ; “e-nub and pressure of dark thought*, that came
K> * vllong billow in their weight, of care;
Aed in alienee, and in secret, and in night,
“ B n °bl* heart bath wrested with despair,
"id rose more strong than death from Us unwit
nessed prayer.”
Finally, she has at last heard that away in
douih-west, Tut sinking beneath the
‘diehi of years and heavy sorrow, her hus
-o,nd uvea ana toils a suffering, heart-broken,
"’’Peiess slave, somewhere on the Red River,
10 Amansas. But now, indeed, has despair
wneo quite down upon her. She has no
| n nu>-niial friends to interest in his behalf
'"‘journey to find him would be difficult and
“ J ogerous, and the proof of his identity
•IncuU to establish, and she has no hope of
"deling him again on earth. While she had
IT**’ 1? superhuman exertion, amid
iffipuldes that would have discouraged a
ri unused to deepest disappointment, she
ured herself a lule home, whete now,
'"poverty and sorrow, ,h e i. waiting until
"''change shall have a reunion with her
""g loat husband in that other land, where
e ,erv «nt is freed from bis master and
onprepte,

eyes. ,
There she lives, a monument of the crime
of American Slavery. Oh ! when will this
vile system be removed from among us, and

C. S. S. GRIPPING.
Cisterns. —Look well to your cistern.—
To any one who has examined the contents
of a cistern, it is evident that the water &
dirt at the bottom often have a strong stench
in them, while (he water in the upper part of
it was comparatively sweet and pure. This
is owing to the animal matter that settles. at
the bottom, terming a mass of putrid carroo.
In all rain, river or sea water, there are im
mense numbers of auimals so to be invisible
to the naked eye. Infuse a little pepper into
it, to give activity to (hem, and then place it
under a microscope, and it will be alive with
animals. They are called Infutoriu. They
are short lived, and from their immense
numbers, often form one-fourth of our rivers.
So with the mud in the bottoms of our cis
terns. It is caused, principally ,■ by the de
posit of this animal matter, and undergoes
decomposition, putridity, and produces stench,
the same as any other animal matter.
Unless it is cleaned out at least once a'
year, the water becomes the essence of car
rion. To say nothing of the unpleasant
smell, its use, undoubtedly is the cause of
sickness and death.— Ohio, Farmer,
A todno man and a female once upon a
time stopped at a country, laveru. Their
awkward appearance excited the attention of
one of the family, who commenced a conver
sation with tho female by inquiring how far
she had travelled that day 7
“Travelled!” exclaimed the stranger
somewhat indignantly, “ we didn’t (ravel we
rid I”
Moving West.—“ Philuar, dear,” said a
loyal spouse,” who was several years his
junior, “ what do you say to moveiug west 7”
. “ Oh, I'm delighted with the idea ! —You
recollect when Morgan moved out there, he
was as poor as we are, aod he died in three
years worth a hundred thousand dollars.’’
FiTAy, Curiosity.—lt is said that curi
osity induced the Russians at Odessa, after
the wreck of the Tiger-to open one of the
Moorsom shells ; it exploded aod they lost
seventeen men.

Bookfor the Afflicted—Containing an outline of the
origin, progress, treatment and onre of orery form
of disease contracted by promiscuous sexual inter,
course, by seif-abuse or by sexual excess, with ad
vice for their prevention, written in a familiar style,
avoiding all medical technicalities and everything
that would offend the ear of decency ; with an out
line of complaints incident to females, from the re
sult of twenty years’ successful practice, exclusively
dexoted to the euro of diseases of a delicate or pri
rate nature.
To which is added receipts for the cure of the
above diseases, and a treatise on the causes, symp.
toms and cure of the FEVER and AGUE.
Testimony of the Profeeeor of Obetetriee in the
Penn Medical College, Philadelphia —*• DR. HUN.
TER’S MEDICAL MANUAL.”—The author of
this work, unlike the majority of those who advsr.
tise to con the diseases of which it treats is a grad
uate of one of the best Colleges in the United States.
It affords me pleasure to recommend him to the on.
fortunate, or to the victim of malpractice, as a sue.
cessfnl and experienced practitioner, in whose honor
and integrity they may place the greatest confidence.
Jos. S. Longshore, M. D.
From A. Woodward, M. D., of Penn Univereily,
Philadelphia* — lt gives me plessure to add my, testi
mony to the professional ability of the author of the
Medical Manual. Numerous cases of Disease of
the Genital-Organa, some of them of long standing,
have come under my notice, in which his skill has
been manifest in restoring to perfect health in some
cases where the patient has been considered beyond
medical aid. In the treatment of Seminal weak,
ness, or disarrangement of the fonctions produced
by self-abuse or excessive Venery, I do not know his
euperior in the profession. 1 have been acquainted
with the author some thirty years, and deem it no
more than justice to him as well as kindness to the
unfortunate victim of early indiscretion, to recom
mend him as one in whose professional skill and in
tegrity they may «ifely confide themselves,
Auxxn Woodward, M. D.
“ This is, witliool exception, the most comprehen.
■its and intelligible work published on the classes of
diseases of which it treats. Avoiding all technical
terms, it addresses .itself to the reason of its readers.
It ts free from all objectionable matter, and no par
ent, however fastidious, can object to placing it in
the hands of his sons. The author has devoted ma
ny years to the treatment of the various complaints
treated of, and with too little breath io puff and too
little presumption to impose, be has offered to the
world at the merely nominal price of 35 cents, the
fruit of some twenty years’ most successful practice.
— Herald.
“ No teacher or parent should be knowlede impar
ted in this valuable work. It would save years of
pain and mortification and sorrow to the youth un
der their charge.”—Peoples’ Advocate.
A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writing of
“ Hunter's Medical Manual” says “ Thousands
upon thousands of oar yonth, by evil example and
influence of the passions, have been led into the
habit of self.pollution without realizing the sin and
fearful consequences upon themselves and posterity.
The constitutions of thousands who are raising fam
ilies have been enfeebled, if not broken down, and
they do not know the cause or cure. -Anything
that can be done so to enlighten and influence the
public mind as to check, and ultimately to remove
this wide spread source of humau wrelchedeess,
would confer the greatest bieasing next to the relig
ion of Jesus Christ, ou the present and coming gen
eration. Intemperance (or the nse of intoxicating
drinks) though it has slain thousands - upon thou
sands, is not a greater aconrge to the human race.
Accept my thanks on behalf of the afflicted, and be
lieve me your co-worker in the good work you are
so actively engaged in.”
One copy (securely enveloped) will be forwarded,
