Mother and Daughter Find
Bach Other After Thirty
Yeara Separation.
A. 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.

ferohnnd his willingness to do so.

the urging that some might bo nomi
nated who would neb work for the

vhich was promptly tabled. In this

iQJ ince leaders favor a construction

f liquor for export :
Resolved , That the proposed pro
hibitory amendment to the constitu-
ion. which prohibits the manufacture
if intoxicating liquors , to bo kept for
ialfl or sold to be used as ft beverage
within the state , but which allows the
manufacture of intoxicating liquors
for export purposes , to bo used as a
beverage without the state , guards
alike the moral and material interests
of the people of the state in that , in
is benign a..d boneb'cefit operations ,
! t will protect the people of the state
from all the evils of the liquor traffic ,
while it reserves to them the profit of
its manufacture for export purposes ,
and this benign and beneficent pur
peso is fully sustained by the Mosaic
w as found in Dout. liv : 21 , g fol-
ows : "Thou shalt not oat anything
that dioth of itself J thou shalt give it
to the stranger that is in thy gates ,
