Story of Slavery Finds a Sequel in thiu City. The Strnngo Changes of Fnmlly Llfo. Thu old fltorioa of the heart-sadden- ing break-ups in funiiliuH , caused by the buying and Belling of men , women nnd children , have largely lost thu thrilling inturoat which oncucharacter ized thorn , as they Iwvo faded into the past , Ono of theuo old stories of true lifo has had its mUrost revived , and haa boun lifted out of the realm of thi ) common place by the stiutling sequel which haa lately duvulopo'l itself. Ono ( { oed old colored womannaim.d [ r . Clam Bronn , now living ut 'Oliver ' , nnd having reached the good Id age of seventy-four yours , ia ono " the parties deeply concerned. She iras in early yearn n alayc , ml had. twin babies , one of which iod in infancy. Tlio other onminod with her until about ( wo oars old , when the little thing was operated from her by a snlo such as ( ton marked the traffic in human usb. Tlio mother and child thus oparatod saw each other frequently , lowovcr , during the course of a few oars , and the mother kept track of 10 whereabouts of her child until lie latter had reached the ago of bout eight years. Thirty years have Hissed since then , nnd infJthor and aughtor have never met , their lives rifting farther and farther apart un- 11 tnoy lost nil trace of each other. Ill 1870 the mother succeeded in Betting away the slavo-lifo , nd soon after her escape rom its thraldom , settled in n humble omo in tlio far west , and in time bo- aino a resident of Denver , whore she as nuw lived many years. She managed at ono time to gather a little iroporty together , and then she lost t by the cunning of others shrewder , > ut loss honest than the old colored voman. She btill retains a little ionic tlioro , nnd holds 'tho respect of .ho . community as a worthy , hard working woman. During these thirty long years , the old lady has never ceased. , she says , .0 pray that slio might in some way , low she know not , gain some track of ho daughter , who was torn from her jreftst as ft more intnnt. The old lady * s very piously inclined , and she has lover ceased her praying , or lost her : aith that kind Providence would yet restore to her the lost ono. . The old lady's faith is now reward- 3d , and fiho is about to have her hopes [ ully crowned with fulfilment by mooting her long lost daughter face to face. This daughter is now it wo man grown , nnd since her separation from her mother , has followed the course of so many of those held in bonds. Liberated by the war , she found a homo in the north , and has for those many years supported her- suit by her own labor , working when ever opportunity afforded , doing housework , laundry work , in fact , any kind of legitimate labor to earn her broad. Shu is now n resident of this city , and makes her home , when not working out , at Mrs. Snundors , who lives at No. 537 Broadway. Her name is Eliza .Tune Gunter , the lust name being tuKim from that of the family of Mr. Hubert Guntcr , in which film was brought up. A ftislor of the chief of police , Fields , now in Denver , having bu- como acquainted with the facto of the old lady's lifo , and getting some tr.ico that the long miming daughter was in this city , wrote her brother about it , nnd result of the as a comupondenei' , the fact has been developed thutElizit Jane Gunter is the daughter of Mrs , Olara Drown. In the last letter the old lady Bonds word that uho know her prayers would bo answered , and she Is satisfied that the woman Iwo is her daughter. The old woman is described as almost 'beside horeolf with joy , and "brusses do Lor" that ho has hoard her prayers. She sends word that she is preparing to como hero at once and see her daughter faou to faco. The HOWS wus imparted to the daughter by the chief of i police , and that it was glad news to her need not bo stated , Mother and daughter ahko can hardly bide the time re quired for the mother to reach this city , und the meeting will bo one in deed whioli wutild bo worthy of being made pcrnmnunt by being nmbodiu3 HI the highest art on eamna , or penned in the choicest literature. That mother und daughter should thus have { ho silence of thirty yearn' ' separation broken , and liavo tlieir ; long deferred hopes crowned by a happy meeting i , indeed , ono of thu wonderful sequels of lifo in slavery.
