Even those that are most kindly treated, are generally far from being happy. The slaves in my father's family are almost as kindly treated as slaves can be, yet they pant for liberty. "May the Lord guide you in this great movement. In behalf of the perishing, Your friend and brother, WILLIAM. T. ALLAN" Mr. Leftwich is a grandson of Gen.
His successor in the Fortieth Congress is William Mungen. 243, 306, 519, 538, 547. JOHN W. LEFTWICH was born in Bedford County, Virginia, September 7, 1826. He removed with his parents to Tennessee in 1834, and was occupied in farm work in summer, and attending school in winter, until twenty years of age.
Before seating himself, he called in one of the bookkeepers, saying: "Mr. Leftwich, I desire you to remain with Mr. Tandy and me, during the whole of our interview." "Surely that is unnecessary, Duncan," said Tandy hastily. "I don't care to discuss my private affairs in the presence of a clerk." "I have no intention to discuss your private affairs at all, Mr. Tandy," Duncan replied.
Then he remembered, with something like a spasm round his heart, that the bookkeeper, Leftwich, had heard the whole conversation, and he remembered also that he had been, as he put it, "rather hard on Leftwich" upon several occasions in the past. If Leftwich cherished resentment on that account, his malice now had its opportunity.

"I might feel it necessary to mention some facts that otherwise there is no occasion for Mr. Leftwich to know." "Oh, very well. I ought not to have expected courtesy at your hands." "I think I must agree with you in that," answered Duncan. "In view of the circumstances which, I may remind you, are of your own making I really think you ought not to have expected courtesy at my hands.
"The matter concerning which I have asked you to call here, is not a private affair of yours or mine. It is a matter connected with the administration of the bank. Be seated, Mr. Leftwich." "But I insist," said Tandy, with a good deal more of heat than he was accustomed to permit himself to show, "I insist upon a confidential interview." "You cannot have it.
W.C. Gildersleeve, Esq., Wilkesbarre, Penn, a native of Georgia. Mr. William Leftwich, a native of Virginia and son of a slaveholder he has recently removed to Delhi, Hamilton County, Ohio. "From dawn till dark, the slaves are required to bend to their work." Mr. Nehemiah Caulkins, Waterford, Conn., a resident in North Carolina eleven winters.
