ail elderly gentleman, living a few miles be'ow
Greenville, well known to our citizens by the
name of Cain Wells, attempted his own life
bv shooting himself on Sunday last. It seems
that he did not quite succeed, but it is 6up
posed that it will be impossible f?r him to live,
as much of his brain was shot away. The
causes of this unfortunate suicide we have not
sufficiently learned to positively state, but this
much we would repeat of what we have heard :

promised himself that unless it should rain
upon his crops by Saturday he would kill himself,
and it not having rained, it appears that
he endeavored to put his awful threat into.execution.
We sincerely trust that this report is
untrue, but if it be, it should prove a dreadful
warning never to tempt the Almighty in the
dispensations of his Providence. ; ?

A Dangkkous Fkat.?Some tinfc since the
point of the lightning rod on the steeple of the
First Congregational Church in New London,
o c* '
got unscrewed and fell to the ground. It was
such a dangerous piece of work to, replace.-it
that the committee were unwilling to employ
any one to perform tlie task. A Mr. De Wolf,
however, volunteered to make the attempt,
which-^hw committee permitted aftew some
hesitation, having promised him a handsome
sum if he succeeded lie tf/cf succeed, accomplishing
the task without any apparent coo
sciousness of having done any thing extraordinary.
s The New London Chronicle says the
point to which he ascended is very near two
hundred feet, and for the last fifty feet he had
to climb up a stone surface, with nothing to
hold on to but a small iron rod; and when he
reached the ball he was still some dozen feet
from the end.of his journey. This distance
he had to shin up a single rod, a labor which
hi found so fatiiruiiur that he hei-ame exhausted.
_ -- o- , ? mid
was obliged to return and seat himself on
the ball and recover breath. This he soon did,
mid fearlessly resumed his travels towards the
? h?tid<. where lie accomplished his object, and

ar-est and lodgment in the jail at this place,
v\e announced a week or two ago, broke jai:
and made off' on Monday night la.t. tuiing a
thunder shower which came up between mid.ignt
atnl day. This feat was accutnplishd by
sawing one of the iron bars of his prison and
bending it in its sock it, and then letting himself
down by strips of blankets, which he had
torn up for that purpose. I low he came by a
saw is a matter of wonderment and conjecture
->ii> all, but it is stlppOsed that he must have had
.t concealed about his pet son when lodged, and
it escaped the scauh which was then made. It
is pro liable he could have-freed -himself of-hi>
prison at any time after his coiitihenicht aiid
was only waiting for a good opportunity, which
offered on Monday night.

owing from the Marion: Star:
" The greater part* of our readers will, we
have no d-.ubt, be plrasffd to see in to-day's
jtaper the formal announcement of Geii.
.McQueen as a candid ite lor re election to Congress.
To'his*own con^liiiienis his services
have been so ablv, faitlifu ly and successfully
rendered, as to merit and secure their confidence.
f? fact none of his predecessors have
done as much. We way instance the passage
of the hill "ranting time to the Wilmington
-and Manchester Railroad to pay the duties on
the iron imported for laying the road, tbe^con
tract- for tlio nai ment of it in mail service:
thus securing the transmission < ?f I he ureal
northern mail on this mute, which measure
owed its success mainly to the exeitions of
Gen. McQueen, the number of new post routes,
and post offices he has been successful in establishing
throughout the Congressional district,
thus accommodating a laige number of
his constituents .with/greater mail facilities.?
To add to these the estimable qualities of
Gen. McQueen, as a high toned gentleman,
ami his business capacity, have earned for him
a high reputation, both at Washington and
throughout the State. A reputation founded
on so sojid a bisis, which is capable of making
General McQueen generally useful to the
State, will not, wo are sure, be slightly estimated
by his own immediate constituents."

Tiif. Gift Swindles.?We have been looking
to see what would be the effect of the judicial

brazen effrontery which first projected these

alarmed. They flaunt their flaming promises
in the face of a credulous puldie as confidently
a< ever, and th^sale of tickets goes on as actively
as before. *These fellows understand
the pumic, ana give them the credit they deserve
for unbounded gullibility .; and while they
pocket the dollars pirnred^jnto their treasury,
are "getting ready/towitbcfftw- from the operation
under the plea that they dare not violate
the law against lotteries, or some other equally
transparent get off.
The people do love to be swindled ! There
is no use in trying to open their eyes; they
mean to go through with it. Hundreds of
these Gift Schemes are receiving patronage in
various parts of the country to an extent lha?
