No one had seen him except negroes, and of course the general idea was that their tale was only a Creature of the im agination, occasioned by superstition and fright; or that they had merely seett some harmless tramp prowling airoihd.

The negroes thought it no less important a perscinoge than the old cloven-footed gentleman himself, or Spook, or some other horrible raw-head and blondy-bones, houdou terrible things or invest aged witches with their dreadful powers ol the evil one. The hunt for him was not of the wild exciting kind to be expected in such a case,—only after some difficulty the game was discovered walking up and down by the swamp in a very mysteri ous and restless way, having been c riv en from his lair by the high water. He seemed not to see his pursuers, who, seeing he did not run away, at once stopped, and after consultation, Alfred Lane, an intelligent ahd courageous colored preacher, was selected to ap proach the hideous savage, whose ter rors seemed enhanced by his strahge actions and horrid countenance,— while the dark shadows of the ewarrp, the croaking of the frogs, and the hoot- ’ ings of the owls, created feelinc3 that can be better imagined than described. Alfred approached and spoke to him, but he seemed not to bea r. At length, however, he succeeded in attracting his attention, but he appeared hot to im derstand «word that was spoken to him, and not an intelligible sound did he utter in response. As a last effort, Alfred, seeing that hunger was express ed in every feature, asked him if he didn’t -‘want something to eat.” At this he gazed wistfully at his interroga tor, and approached with an expression that would have melted a heart of ada mant. He stood nearly six feet high and was entirely naked; except that around his nCck he wore a calico string to which were, attached four live snijils encased in their shells. While his face gave evidence that be was suffering in tense hunger* his body seemed bloated, perhaps by dropsy or from exposure to the rigors of the weather without shel : ter, clothing* oirfire.

Colquitt’s steff, had two horses shot from under him..in one fight, and the third horse ran Sway with him (to wards the Tear,)>and,did not stop run ning under ten miles. I think F. got a plenty of that tight, and-I ;mnst; say his hbrse “pidledprelty well on the bit.” I saw him retreat'during onr hunt in not very good order, of which I will wake mention after awhile. "We all left home in double buggies, with- guns, saddles, provisions, etc., packed away, and upon reaching Vien na and hearing that there was some danger of yellow fever down where <we were going, we all felt rather gloomy until F. remarked that he had heard that whisky and mustard seed mixed was a sure remedy, and advised that we should lay in a supply. It was readily agreed to by all and one vate over, so we dispatched F. for the “inedicibe.” After leaping Y. about five miles F. proposed we should begin to “heel” ourselves against yellow feyer. Well, Mr. Editor, I never saw a man take as good care of bis health as F. did. We had a very bright freedman along with us to do onr cooking, and the first night we stopped with a very nice aDd wealthy gentleman who was to join us in our hunt, and who very unfortunate ly took our cook to be a white man.— About twelve o’clock that bight some one rapped at my door. I got up and opehed it, and F. walked in. Bays I, What’s the matter?” F. would not saj anything for some time, and I saw he was sntich ruffled and i'-?d-eyed. Fi nally he ripped and blowed, and swore he intended to go back home, that he was just as white a man as - any in the party, and he wonld be d—ceased if he couldn’t prove it. Upon investigation I found that Mr. C. nad assigned onr cook and F. to the same room and bed. After quieting F. down, I advised him to go to a. negrojiouse out in the cor ner of the yard and-get the begfoes to furnish the boy quarters* which he did, aDd on his way back, Mr. C.’s dogs, (which were many,) got after F., and pushed him so close that he had to mount the horaa-rack. I felt right sor ry for hun. I thought I never saw the moon shine brighter in my life, and to see F. in his night apparel astride the rack, beat all the ghosts and hobgob lins I ever heard tell of. Well, F. stay ed up there about an hdnr, When I hoard him hit the ground, and here he Came like flying cloud, with about twenty hounds alter hiih. He made mistake and sailed into the wrong room, where there was an old lady and three girls, and from the noise they made he soon found out that he was not ihvited in there, and outhe came, and,into,.an other, room, which happened to bo the kitchen, and' ‘Mr. Editor, such, .a fuss you never beard.
