His whole appearance and manners and hls langnage-—for he spoke good English, entirely frae feom the broken idlom of the Ignorant colored people—impressed me at once that he way a person of far more intelligence and education than would be expected In one who had passed his whole life In bondage. I becamo fnterested in him, and reqaested him to glve me a sketch of his life, as thera was a little lelsura that afteraoon, the contending forces on each ride being qulet for a few hours, Sald he: “I will, genezal; but tell me first, can you give me any hope of getting up the river to 1 roplied that 1 would en- deavor to secure traneportation for him, and thcught there would not be much doubt about {t, Then he broke forth in profuse expreesions of gratitude, and began HIS STORY: *‘My name is Jacob Rahman, and I am the son of Abdel Rabman, I was born fifty-seven years ago last May, nesr Boli- var, Tenn. But before I proceed further with my own nerrative I mus! tell you something of my father’s history, He was a native of Morocco, from which he was stolen away by a slave ship when he was 10 years old. He always claimed ho was & Moorlsh prince in that country. He had been thorcughly educated forone of his years, according to the eduction and customs of that semt-barbarous land, and was ralsed in luxury, for his family were the possessors of great wealth as well as of rank, Ho and companion went down the harbor of Tanglera one summer afternoon for a eall, when a squall comlog up suddenly, their boat capeized andthe companion was drowned. Father clung to the keel till a boat put out from a shlp lylng atanchor cloze by and rescued him, On belng taken aboard, he was Informed tha®, as it was 8o near evening, he would have to remain on the ship till the next day, when ha would ba tent bask to the city. He suspected nothing wrong, and was satlsfied to remain. When he got up the next morning he was amazed to find the ship out In the ocesn wlth mo land in view. Ashe often expressed it, he was overwhelmed with deepalr. He bogged the oflicers of the ship to send him back by the firet vessel they should meet, but his entreatles were of no avall. The of- ficers and crew were hard hearted and cruel men, and they only Iaughed at his pleadings. He eoon learced from ons of the sallors that he was on a slave ship bound to the west coast of Afrlea for a cargo of elaves. He then reallzad that he was t)be sold Into slavery. Ha often told ms of the terrlble agony he endared in thus being torn away from his family end country, with nothing to look for- ward to but hopeless bondage. Oace, in his despair, be at'empted to jump oyerboard, but was csught by ono of the sallers and the ottempt frus- trated. He was then ke t in confine- ment, The vessel reached her destina- natlon on the African coast, and after securling her cargo of slaves sot sall for Savannab, Ga. On her arrival at that pert tho Africans were sold at auctian, he among the number. As he had the dark skin of the Spanieh Moor he readily passed for & mulatte, and as he conld not spsek & word of Engllsh, he could not make known who he was or where ho was from, and if he had been able to tell bis story no attention would havo been pafd to 1t He was bid off to a pluater by the name of Johnson, in the northwestern pertion of Georgis, near the Tennesses line. Here ho remained a few years, workiog in the cotton field, subjected to hard treatment of slaves, but never for- gotting his kindred snd country, or its langusge. Ho was in the habit of talking with himself in his natlve tongue when alone, #o an to rataln it in memory, He romained ot o few years, whon he was sold to John Western, snd moved to Bollvar, Tenn. He had now fallen into klod hands, Mr Western, observing hla unuenel fntelligence capacity, trested him with marked kindners and permitted the governees of his children to tea him aleo, He marriecd & ma'atte girl belonglog to bis master, who was maid to Mrs, Westorn, Here, as 1 toldyou, I was boru and was one of keven brothers. = As W0 grow up our lives passed pleazantly, for the family wore o)l togother, and we were bappy and contented, Our master allowed us the same privileges for obtain ing some degreo of eduscation that he had glven to father, which was a most unususl thiog for & slave to poesess, Father was able to teach us all the com- mon branches ot education, and we were allowed an hour each day, after our work was done, for that purpoge. But thoss pleasant times werc soon to end, Things seemed to darken. Master Western ap- peared sad and meloncholy, and walked about, speaking to no one, It appeared as If some great sorrow was welghing bim down. We brgan to hear the white folks spoak of his having met with heavy lors:s, and that he was in great frouble, It was not long till he elckened and took to his bed, from which he never got up agaln, We all helped to lay the good master tenderly, for we raaliz:d our best Mother sald she koew there was TROULLE COMING NOW, for sha could sce the siadows on the wall. Inafew weeks the admintetrator came to the place and reported that My. Weetern had been rulned financlally by the betrayal of otbers in whom he had put bis confidence, and that his plantas tion and the slaves most be sold, for the estate was Insolvent. Though we ex- pected such wonld be iho case the news came with crushing force. From that on we were sobbing snd wournlng most of thotime, The day for the aaction was fixed, and the night before cur family were all together in our cabio, which was really a comfortable house, We were all crying as If cur hesrts would break, Father tried to comfort us by talling us our Fatber In heaven would not forget as; and then we all koelt dowa and he prayed, and oh, such a_prayer; seems as if I can hear him now, his voice com. ing back from that far-away time plesd- ing with the good Lord that onr family might all meet again, If not in this land, then In the heavenly kingdom where no separation counld come, ‘1t was some consolation the next day to see that father and mother wera pur- chased by the same man, Oharles Menous, a planter from Natohez, Miss. My five brothers were fold to partios liviog in_the viclnlty of Natchez, while I was bid off by a gontleman named Georga Woodford, of Bowling Green, Ky. The parting tcene the next day 1 can't attempt to describe. Sometimes even now I start up with a shudder in my dreams, and ory out to some imagin. ary person to brlng back my father and mother. We clung to each other till the men tore us apart, and then, saying a last good-by, I went my sed and weary Why. “On reschlng my new Kentacky home, I found my new master was & man of groat wealth, the owner of several tob. acco plantatlons, and conducting a large business. I determined to make myself as usefal to him as 1 possibly could, trasting thereby to secure kind troatment from him, and I was not disappolnted Ho soon discovered that 1 could read well and write a good hund, He did not put me In the field with the other hands, bat kept me employed abount his office and the mansion, Aftor trylng me thus for some months, he appeared to be convinced that was thoroughly honast and faithfal,and made me bis trusty attendant. After I had been with him him about four yoars I fell in love with & mulatto girl on a nelgh- borlng plantation and marrled her, My master thought so much of me that he purchased her and brought her to his own establishment, and gave us nice quarters tolive In. I had told him aboat my father and mother having been sold to a planter living at Natchez and my brother sold to different parties In that viclnity, One morning he eald to me: *‘Jake, I am going to start for New Orleans in a few days, and shall stop a week at Natchez on my way down the rlver. I shall take you with me, and while stopplug there you can look around and sse {f you can find out anything about your parents.’ I was overjoyed at the thonght of seeing them agalp, end yet I was afrald 1 would not be able to find them, for thirteen yenars had passed elnce we were separated; but thera was hope. Oa our arrival at Natchez I Immedlately loquired for Charles Merwin, who had purchese my parents, and learned that he lived on hls plentatlon, two miles out from the city. Thither I went, filled with hope and dread. I readily found Mr. Merwin,and made myeelf known to him, telling him he purchesed my father and mother from the estate of Mr. Western, near Bolivar, Tenn., thirteen years ago. After listening to my statement, ho in- formed mo that all my family wero set fres somo cizht or nine years before, and wero sent to Morrocco. He sald my father claimed to be a Moorleh prince, and, with his permisslon, wrote to the emperor of Morcceo a leiter in Arabic, stating who he was,how and when he was taken away from his native country, and that ho was now held as a slave and where, giving hls owner’s name and ad- dress, and asking him to secure hia re- leaso and that of his family, Mr. Mer- win took the letter to the Spanish consul at New Ocleans, who forwarded it to its destination, In about two years Mr. Merwin recolved a letterfrom the Ameri- can consul to Morocco stating that the emperor had caused an investigation to be made, and it was found that the state- meut contained in Rahman’s letter was true-—that a price named Abdel Rihman disappeared abcut the year 1787, and his fate.was never known until his letter was recefved. He alzo recelved a com- manfeation fcom Henry Clay, ssorctary of state, making lrqniry about one Abdel Rshman, & slave, who claimed to have been A PRINCE IN TIMBUCTO00, statlog that the emperor of Moracco de- sired hls emanclpation, and to have him sent home, and asking if that conld be brooght about, Mr. Merwin wrote back that he could ot IRahman and his wife free If the government would eecure transportation ‘or them, After awhile it was 80 arracged, and they were sent to Timbuctoo. Tn the course of two years, through the intorceeslon and agency of the emperor of Morocco, the ress of the family lving about Natchez were cman- clpated and ent to the same plsco, He eald father told them (of another son, Jacob, but they cculd gat no inteliigence of his whereabouts, and he was left be— hind. *2'bte Informatlon was a dreadfal dia- appointment tu me, for it banlohed all hope of ever seelng my kindred agein: but It was & sat/sfactlon to know they vers ail free, and that my good father wan restored to hls country and to bis rights again, 1 returned with my mester to my Ken‘ucky home, and lived there hsppily with my family till the war came on Master Woodford jolned the confederate sray and took me along with him, He was in the quartermaster’s department, and we were with Jobnaton's army at the battlo of Shilch, Afier serving at dif- forent places we jolned Gen, Jos John stou’s ermy, which is trying to help Pewberion, sud fs now st Jackson, A few days ago I met a gentleman, an old remdent of Bowllng Green, who knew mo and_my famlly well. He had just returned from a forlough, during woich he visited his home In citlzen's drers un- dizcovercd, While there some of lLis col- cred people told him the ‘feas’ had car- ried cff & lot of the colored folks, and among them my wife and two daughters (L had but two children then, having burled four), to St. Lonis or Kaneas City, From that moment I determined to mske my way into the Unlon llnes, and to go up the river if possible. In cacap- Ing through the picket lines of the rebels was ehot at three times,and was wonnded once. Here is my wounded arm, not yet dressed. 1 have now told you all; and obh, slr, if you will help me to get 10 St. Louis I wiil never ceass to pray for you.” His appearance and manner, and his evident sincerity, convinced me he was bonest and trothful, I eent him to the hoepital to have his arm dressed, and the next day secared traneportation for him to St. Louis on one cf the government trausports, and supplying him with ten days’ rations, bade Him good-by. He started on his way rejoleiny, not think- ing I should ever sea him agaln, In 18G5, after the cloze of the war, walking alor ¢ Fourth street in St. Louis one day, I was accosted by a mulatio wan who manifested a great deal of plea: ure at meeting me. Looking at him for a few moments, I told him I could not recall him. He then asked me {f 1 did uot remember Jacob Rahman? Then [ recoguizad him, o apswer to my In quiry if he FOUND HIS WIFE AND CEHILDREN, he replied, ‘Ob, yer; I found them after s long search, On arrival at St. Loole, | began to look through the clty, vielting all the colore and making rn.'mlrr here, there, and everywhere, for weeks and months, until at Iast I met with a colored man who remembered mesting & woman with two danghters, who had jast come from Ken tucky, and answered to the dezcription of my wife and children, but he thonght they went to Kansas City, whither 1 made my way, working a week or two at a place as oppottunity offered, to make wy livlng, 1 searched through Kaneas Ulty and the country round about, but could get no trace of them, and then worked my weary way back to St. Louls, almost heartbroken, and there continued what seemed to be an almost hopeless search, but 1 L st had §falth that my Heavenly Father would enablo me to find them, After again looking through the city without success, Istarted Into the country, In. qurlng for colored people as I wentalong When about ten miles from the olty, I cbrerved a farm houte standing back a faow rods from tho road with a lane lead- {ng toZlt, on cach slde of which was a high board fence. When within seven or eight rods of the lane a colored woman came out, and turnlog toward me, sud- denly stopped, and throwing up her arms with a loud exclamation, fell to the ground, I ran to her and found that my prayers wero at last answered, for she was my long-lost wife, 1 carrled her to the house where sho soon revived., She then told mo that word came back from the army to Bowling Green that both my master and myself had boen killed. Not knowlng what to do In thelr great dis tress, but belng anxlous to get as far away from the war as they possibly could they were advised by the federals to go to Kansas, and they were glven transporta- tlon, with several others, to St. Louls. On thelr arrlval thore they fell In with Mr. Wilson, at whoss place I found my wife, who waa looking for female help, and took them to his home, and found places for our two glrls in the neighbor hood, They were seno for, snd in a lit- tle while we were all together, 1t was a joyous famlly reunion. I was ou}pluyod by Mr. Wileon, and we are with him yet. I asslst In cultivating the farm and bring the produce to market. I camo in with a load to-day, and it has given me the opportanity to ace you agaln, and to again thank you for alding me In cominy to this clty. ~ We rarely fail to remember you in oar prayers.” After assuring him {t gava me great pleasure to learn he had been untted to his family again, we sald good-by. In writing out this narsative 1 may at times have falled to glva the exact lan- gusge of Rahman, but 1 have given the exact substance. AN EXTERACT FROM JOHN Q In looking over the momoirs of John (Qaincy Adams, a fow months ago, 1 was quite surprised and plessed to find the followicg entry In his diary in May, 1828: Abdel Rahman is a Moor, otherwlse called prince of Ibrahlm, who has been forty yearsa slave in this country. Ho Wrots two or threo years sinca to the em- peror of Morocco, in Arable, In conss quence of which the emperor expressed awish to our consul that he might be emanclpated and rent home. His owner, residing at Natchez, Miss., offered to emancipate hfm on conditfon thet he thould be sent homs by the United Stater, which we accordingly determined to do. He has now come on from Natchez with his wife and met Mr. Clsy at Balti- more, [Mr. Adams was president at that time and Mr.,Clay was secretary of state], He came In while Mr, Southard, (secre- tary of the navy) was with me, and we had some consultation how and when he should be dispatched to bis home, which, he says is Timbactoo. He says he has left at Natchez five sons and elght grand- children, one of them orly four days old when he came away, all in slavery, and wishes they might all be emancipated and be sent with him or to him. He fays heis G0 years old and assumes to have been the lawful prince of his country. This is foand in volume 7 or volumo 6 of Adams’ memoirs. It was a satisfac- tion to find this conclusive confirmation of the narrative of Rahman, ADAMS' DIARY.
