Hut look! (he door Is liursted in,

Rash fools! see they not Texas Jaek,

Ha! 'tis u gang of farmer lads,
They're on a merry spree;
But woful luck ! why come they here?
They murdered all will be.
The farmer lads walk down the aisle,
Hut Maek forgets to lire;
And Texas Jaek draws not his knife,
Dick offers to retire.
'Tp with your hands!" the farmers cry,
Quick I'rairie Maek obeys;
Chicago Dick forgets his arms,
For life, bold Thomas pra.tn.
The fanners rob the helpless fair,
Who make a sad ado;
Hut heavens! they rob these Westerners,
And take their pistols, too!

From Slavery.
In the forthcoming number of the
Century Magazine Frederick Douglass,
for t lie first time, relates the story of
his escape from bondage. Nearly iifty
years ago, when the llight was made, it
was the custom inthestate of Maryland
to require all free colored people to be
proTided with "free papers," without
which they were not permitted to
travel. A description of the person
was giren in these papers, and the per
son was examined very rigidly to make
good bis identity. A slave answering
Uie general description would some
times borrow or hire papers from a free
negr, but this was a critical thing to
do ' and often resulted disastrously to
both the owner and the borrower.
Douglass answered no description pa
pers he had seen, so that plan could .not
be adopted in this ease. He had a
friend a sailor who was provided
with certain government papers that
had at least an ollicial look. Baltimore
was his starting point. He arranged
with a friendly nackmun to take his
luggage to the station, and got there
himself just in time to jump aboard the
train, hoping in the confusion attend
ing its departure to avoid exciting sus
picion. The story is best told in Doug
lass' own language :
"In my clothing I was rigged out in
sailor style. I had on a red shirt and a
tarpaulin hat, and a black cravat tied
in sailor fashion carelessly and loosely
about my neck My knowledge of ships
anil sailors' talk came much to my as
sistance, for I knew a ship from". stem
to stern and from kelson to cross-trees,
and could talk like an 'old salt.' I was
well on the way to Havre de Grace be
fore the conductor came into the negro
car to collect tickets and examine the
papers of his black passengers. This
was a critical moment in the drama.
My whole future depended upon the de
cision of this conductor. Agitated
though I was while this ceremony was
proceeding, still, externally at least, I
was apparently calm and self-possessed,
lie went on with bis duty, examin
ing several colored passengers before
reaching me. He was somewhat harsh
in tone and peremptory in manner un
til he reached me, when, strange
enough, and to my surprise and relief,
his whole manner changed. Seeing
that I did not readily produce my free
papers, as the other colored persons iu
the car had done, he said to me, iu a"
friendly contrast with his bearing to
ward the others :
"I suppose you have your free pa
pers?" To which I answered:
"No, sir: I never carry my free pa
pers to sea with me."
"But you have something to show
that you are a freeman, haven't you?"
"Ves, sir," I answered; "I have n
paper with the American eagle on it,
and that will carry me around the
world."
At Havre do Grace, he met a young
colored man whom he knew, who
seemed curious to rind nut his business
so far away from home. He got rid of
this difficulty only to encounter an
other. At the window of a train stand
ing on aside track directly opposite the
one he was In sat a man for whom he
had just been working at Baltimore.
By good luck the man did not turn
around, so he was not discovered. On
reaching Philadelphia he inquired the
way to the New York trains, and ar
rived there on the 4th of September,
1838, a free man. But his troubles
were not over. In New York he found
that it was hard to find a trustworthy
man, even of his own race. Large
premiums were offered for the return of
runaway slaves, and few of the misera
ble darkies in the city could withstand
this temptation to 'betfaya brother.
For days Douglass wandered homeless
ami hungry through the streets. Fi
nally ho found a good Samaritan, who
directed him to the house of David
Buggies, one of the ollieers of the Un
derground Railroad, who lived on the
corner of Church andLispenard streets.
Thcro the poor runaway was hidden
for several days, and tbero he was
joined by his intended wife, a free wo
man from Baltimore, and they were
married by a Presbyterian minister.
Frem New York the newly married
couple went to New Bedford, Mass.,
where their free life began in earnest.
It was in New Bedford that Douglass,
on the advice of a colored friend,
changed the name given him at birth
to the one ho now bears. Frederick
Augustus Washington Bailey was his
original name. His friend, Having just
read "The Lady of the Lake," suggest
ed, indeed insisted, upon Douglass as
the new surname, and Douglass it was
made.
