Another reminine French Swindler. French women have ever been noted and celebrated as being the most a Iroit swindlers in creation, especially when their inclinations or neeessities drive them to other than hon. est courses to obtain a livelihood. Original ity and novelty appear to charnetesize all their efforts, and success seems naturally to follow every attempt, for nine times out of ten we rend that the operators got well off We have been drawn into these remarks by reading the following account, and venture to say that no other than a French woman could or would plan and carry out so bold a game. As the story run, a fashionable looking lady recently drove up in a handsome private carriage to a well known lunatic asylum, situated a few miles from Paris, and reques ted to see the proprietor. Her wish being acceded to, she informed the doctor that she ..desired to place her husband under his care, to see if a cruel mania under which he la bored, that he had lost a large quantity of jewels, could not be removed. After some hesitation, the doctor consented, and the lady, on receiving his assurance, drove directly to the first jeweler's in Paris and selected jew els to the value of several hundred pounds. Requesting a clerk to go with her, in her carriage, to procure the money for the goods she had tak-en, she drove with him to the insane asylum, and arriving there, he was shown into a room. The lady then sought the. doctor, told him of the arrival of her husband. and getting into her carr'a;;e, again drove rapidly away. The poor clerk, after waiting and waiting, grew impatient, and violently rang the bell. The doctor made his appearance, and the clerk commencing eagerly to inquire after the lady and his jewels, was forced into a straight jacket, the malady complained of as the doctor imagined making its appearance. He was confined for several days before the lady's ruse was discovered. She and the jewels are as yet non est, or in the hog Latin of the Western deputy sheriff, not comealibus gone ofo. DISTRESSING OCCURRENCE.-We learn that on Tuesday evening last, Mr. John Blakeney of this District, met with an accident which resulted in his death instantly. The parti culars so far as we have been able to gather them, are these: On the evening mentioned be took his double-barrel gun, and walked out to where his hands were at work,.in his field, and after giving some directions, walked to a small distance from them, when the re port of his gun attracted their attention: on looking round lie was seen to fall in one di rection, and his gun in another. Upon ex amination, it was found that both barrels of his gun had been discharged, both loads ta king effect, one in his mouth and the other near by passing directly through and tearing off the back of his head. Between him and his gun lay a log, and from the marks of both harmmers on the off side, it is supposed that he either set the butt of the gun upon the log, froni which it slipped, or that he attempted to set it against the log and struck the hammers, which dis char'red both barrels. Mr. Blakeney was a highly respectable citizen-had been married about two years, and leaves a wife and child and a large circle .of relations and friends to mourn his untimely and sad fate.-Cheraw Gazette. FIRE.-The Abbeville Banner of the 29th ult., says:-Mr. Win. D. Richey, who resides three miles west of this village, was arousecd d fromnchis slumbers about 2 o'clock, on yester duiy nmirninig, by the cry .of sfire.-.sHe soon discovered that the fire had progressed too far to save anythiing, nddin a few minutes af terwaris the. ilole. house wvas env~eloped in * flarties,ifestroying ahost everything in it. This loss falls heavily upon Mr. Riehey, but we have no doubt that a-generouspubbec will extend to him that assistance wvhich his cir eumnst:meces demand. It is thought to be the work of an incen diary. ___ THE BLESSIroS OF THE Usuo.-The Green ville Patriot, good anthority on this subject, says: "We understand that the Cherokee Indian bill passed Congress, out of which Hon. Waddy Thompson gets a feue of $40, 000 as attorney for the claimants." Exta&onorsAar BamE.-On the evening of the 14th instant, the wife of Mr. Henry Bowvie, who resides a few miles wvest of this village, gave birth to three flne, fat, bonncing babes-two boys and a girl-and at the latest accounts, were all doing well. The three together, as we are informed, weighed twenty one pounds !-Abbeville Banner, 29th ult. I' this place, on the 20th of March, by the Rev. S. H. Brown, Capt.

BEG leave respectfully to inform the eitizen of Edgefield, Village and Country, that Ihave commenced a MERCANTILE BUSINESS in the house situated between Mr. BaRNs Store and the Court Houso. My STOCK, consisting of alf the varieties usually found in a-Village Retail Store, has been recently purchased in Charleston, from Houses that import their Good-,principally, direct from Europe. And I ffatter myself, that an ex perience of five years in an sporting and Job bing House in- Charleston, together with other facilities, has enabled me to get a STOCK of GOODS. that will, in point of svrma and PricE, compare favorably with any Establishment in the place. Persons wishing to purchase Goods for CAsH or on a credit until first of January next, will loose nothing by giving me a call. A small share of patronage is earnestly slieited. LOD. HILL.
