AN’OrriER OP FOntUJfF/S FROLIC 3. From tlic Boston St;itcsman. ■\Vc leani by tlu* j)ii!)Uc pririls that a little mincinij Dutchman has jjluvccl a complete lioax, or rdiher a serious'fraUd upon the keen Vank‘es. A person calliijfr himself Henry Vlentt^ recently visiied this city, took store, opened as a vender of lottery tickets, broker, &c. 8cc had a dash ing sign painted (by Curtis), handbills, placards, lottery tickets, kc. printed ; advertisements inserted, and drove busi ness at a great rate. The; brokers—“ Old Stand,” “Fortune’s Moine,” kc. trem- Mfd, wondered, queried, and fretted, but all to no purpose, the Dutchman appear ed to be (ioint>; tlie wlnde business. Eve ry body tha^ passed his shop, oflke, or •what not, stared at the windows, for tliey were lined with bills and tickets, the latter lithograpliically printed : and at the man. for he was a small, squirrel- like lookinj> broker, haviny^ withal a sli.i'iit tin.q;e of the look of tlic rogue. Numbers went in, bought the tickets with vhich th('y hoped to claitn a large share of the needful, paid their cash and de- ])artcd apparently satisfied. He all the tinr.c exerted every nerve to acronimodate liis customers, thanked them for calling, and appeared as ]){)lit(‘ as a new Hedged sophomore. His agents were out in ma ny of tlie towns within twenty and thirty miles round ; he had also itinerant prox ies, and in short had all the wheels of his business in motion, and a nian at each under a good (promised) salary. He iold, as may be presumed from the prem ises, many tickets, or rather many parts of ti( kets, for he seldom had wiiole ones. But t!\is excited no suspicion. At last the secret came out : he had |)iovided himself U’ith whole tickets jjimenml />i/ ol/ii:r brokers^ had the quarters printeil, and sold them, signed “7/. Cleutf,” large as life, all of which are not worth oi\e farthing ! On the discovery of tjiis vile fraud upon an unsuspecting people, some of our brokers waited upon Mi-. C. wIkj with all the gravity of a London alder man, informed them that he intended to rail and purchase the tickets he luid ta ken the number of, and had already sold in quarters, as soon as convenient, and appointed the next day. They, simple «ouls, believed him ; but that same night he decampcd, and left his dupes an omjity ofiko, and his customei's nothin;.-; better than a piece of blank jiaper. 'I'he next morning his printer sent a bailifl', who attached the counter, sign, chair, money draw, (in which was about S3,) and some small articles of little \alue. X. B, It is believed that the agents of this person are now oH'eriiig jjurts of tickets, signed I>y him, in some of the towns of this vicinity. Melnnchoh/ effects of tattling. —^V’c took occasion, some time ago, to animadvert upon that evil disposition, which leads in dividuals, in periods of public distress, to ])ry into, and, right or wrong, to talk about their neighbour’s alVairs. Since then we find an incident staled in a Che- raw (S. C.) paper, which counrms with lamentable accuracy those reilections.— It is therein said, and we believe with truth, that ISIr. M’Niel, of the house of Bioadfoot and M’Xiel, of Charleston, on arriving in Charleston harbour from Liv erpool, and being informed that his house had failed, was driven to the despe rate act of throwing himself ovei-board, and was drowned. Now his house had not, and h/ts not failed ; but, amid the thousand busy and mischievous rumors of the day, their names had been mei\- tioned as among the unfortunate : and these idle l umors were too faithfully and fatally repeated by the pilot, without knowing any thing of their truth, or of the interest which the passengers he was talking to might have in it. It wouhl be impossil)Ie by any argument to illustrate so forcibly as by this unhappy occut- rence, the pernicious and wicked conse quences of such incautious babble. iV. Jlmcricnn. The Provificnce Journal of the ITth inst. has Ine following ingenious notice of the drawing of the Rhode Island Stale Lottery : jjirfid dnJaniity.—On Friday afternoon last, a severe simk was experienced by a large number of persons in this, as well as in the neighboring towns and States. A great numbtir of expensive and splen did buildings were thrown to the ground and completely denu>lished, leaving “ not u wreck behind.” Several persons just stejjping into new and elegant carriage's were precipitated to the earth, which in a moment swallowed up their equipage, attendants and all. Taij'es Joaded with plate and the choicest viands, just as tlie distinguished guests of the muster of the house were about to be sealed, were, with their costly contents, crushed into almost iinperceptii)le fiagments. Ladies who More comnuMiclng a splendid career of fishion, and engaged in formingthe most biilliant alliances, were in a moment sc- Nered from all they held dear, and ron- ■signed to insignificance. 'I'he robes of oHire, and the sceptre of authority, had hardly wrajjped the form oi‘ graced the hand of the greedy exijectants, ern thev ^vcre rudely torn from their shouldei's and ■wrcnched from the grasp. A vast nuiny pf our n^ost deserving citizens who were jinesting I'lcir ample fortunes in pcrma- Tioiit funds, and preparing to live with ^ase upon a liberal iuccnne, were at once vciUtci’4 to comparauvo po'.ei t\ ,;uicl (.oni- j polled to resurne the degrading occupa tions ol life (or the support of themselves and their iamilies. The loss of property by this calamitous visitation is in fact incalculable. It is computed on the low est estimate that at least thirty thousand persons lost on an average 25,uoo dollars each, making the enormous sum of 750 millions of dollars I ! suHerers are ex tended throughout the Union, having in vested a large amount of capital in this place, which has been entirely lost. Newsol this great calamity was despatch ed by express^ and reached Bostoti in a- i)out three hours and twenty miimtes af ter the catastrophe. It is understood that one j>erson only in iJoston or its vi cinity, had the good foitune to secure S-j,00() ot his properly by insurance. A company in Boston and this j>lace were also insured 8l0,(X)0,one in Fiiiiadclphia 5000, and some others in trilling sums. BALLOON ASL’KNSIOX. The long promised and twice deferred ascent ol Madame Johnson in a l)alloon Ironj Castle Cardeti, took j)lace on Wed nesday afternoon at about :> o’clock, aiid it well rewarded the curiosity of the thousands gathered in ihe garden, and on the adjoining house-lops to see it. The intrepid female took her place in the car, when all was J’oady lor dejjar- lure, with the most undisturbed comi)o- sure, and at the moment of being launch ed on her perilous voyage, exhibited not the slightest emotion of doubt or alarm. The wind being fresh, and the air di-y and elastic, the balloon rose with asionish- itig rajjitlily, and look a direction over Long-lsland.—'1‘he dauntless traveller, while her motions could yet be perceived, was occupied with tlirowing out ballast, as if intent on soaring to the lofiiest height. She did indeed reach a greater height than any balloon w e have'^before seen, and cotise(juenily from the approach of night and the proximity of the ocean, fears were entertained lor her safety.— These, however, wt-re relie\ed about 9 o'clock, by her a])pearancc in person at Castle (Jarden, having landed on a salt marsh, back of Flatlaiids, on Long-lsl and, distant about" miles from Brooklyn, and only a few minutes journey fj-om ihe ocean. Many i>ersoTis were speedily at hand to lend her assistance, and she 'suf fered no other iiiconvenionce than that of a ducking in the pond v. here she lighted. .V. 1”. Jl:iirrh:an. SOU'l'IIKKN KDAn. We have heard IVom a inijsl lesjjccla- ble source, that the secretary of war has ordered a brigade of engineers to make a reconnoissance this autumn of tlie ui)[)or or Western route of the |)roposed nation al road from Washington to Neu-Or leans. It is, said that they will pass through this'i)lace in pursuit of the most direct practical route from Washington to the Rocklish Gap, to Lexington, Abing don, and so on to New-Orleans, till the\ intersect the track already surveyed fur the nuddle route. It is known tliat tlie middle atid metropolitan routes have al ready been critically examined this year, by a brigade of engineers of which gen eral Bernard was the chief* Thus dur ing the ensuing session of congress, the interesting (juestion as to the direction of the road, Will in all probability be settled. In tracing the map, it is pretty obvious that whether the Western or middle route be adojjtcd, thediiect Kne will pass so near Charlottesville, that it is highly probable from the weighty considerations that might be urged in its favor, that the road will pass tlirough this place. ''Ve take it for granted that no one will seri ously contend for the metropolitan route. \ arious reasons might be ui-ged against it. Between the capitols our citizens have already tolerably good roads, 'i'he materials for an artificial road on that route are wanting; that country has al ready easy access to navigable water—the country is sj)arsely jjopulated—it is poor, as a consetjuence the expetise of trav ell ing would be soniethlng like a hundred per cent higher than on either the Wes tern or middle route. For these and ma ny other reasons that‘might be assigned, we have concluded the question will be confined to the middle and Western routes, and whichever prevails, we per mit ourselves to hoi)e we siiall be great gainers.-— CV/a/vV/Z/iAT/V/r Cent nil (ruzeite, lyiinl: of Ireland.—The Bank of Ireland, in Duijlin, covers more than an acre and a half of groufid. it is I)uilt of I’ortland stotu', arid is a miirh siijierior ediilce to tiie ]5aid; of I'nghuid in London.

CaARZOTTE: 'rUKSDAY, NOVEMBKU 8, 1K25. Georgia.—Gov. Troup is rc-olcctcd, by a majority of about 700 over his oppo nent, Gen. Clark. So small a majority out of 40,000 votes, aflbrds the victors but little cause for exultation. In the election of members to the legislature, the liiends ol CJen. Clark have succeed ed in obtaining a decided majority. W’e learn from the Knoxville Register of October 21, that Gen. Japkson, on the Friday ])revious, resigned his seat in the Senate of the United States. It is stated that H. L. White will be elected to lill the vacancy. The New'-York( 'onunercial Advertiser says : It is the failures in Liver[)Of)l that we dread, as they generally draw some of our houses into tlie gulf of ruin with tiu-m.—Most of the rec'tii I’ailures in this city, have been occasioned in this man ner, among which, we have heard of one ol very great hardship. Having diawt*i heavily upon a Liverj)ool house, he soon afterwards and before the return of his liills under protest, heard of its failure. Having lunds in the hands of atiother house, in order to m(;et promptly the other bills, he drew again when, behold, the other house had failed also, and the bills oi both came back under protest. e arc gratified to learn that a compa ny has been formed in the city of N. \ork, headed by an enterprising gentle man of capital, to establish Iron \Vorks on a large scale in South Carolina, w^ith a view of manufacturing iron for the nor thern market. Lxtensive purchases have been made on Broad river, including the w orks of Jacob Strouj), Esq. of York dis trict, w here the jjrincipal works will be located. The iron can be transported to Charleston by boats descending Broad River, passing through four canals, on which there are 26 locks. The falls pas sed by these locks amount to 262 feet. We hail this enterprise as promising great benefit to our stat(‘, and as evidenc ing the utility of our internal improve ments. ^\■e most heartily wish all en gaged in it full and complete success.

The rearing of Merino Sheei), pi'oduction of Wool, is.a business that cantiot be overflone, any more than the culture of cotton in tr.e Southern Stati s ; and if we do not great ly err, it will yield ready money and wealth not less to the farnier of the North, than the cotton business does to the plan ter of the South.
