"On Sunday last, a murder
i.n committed in this neigh
j lorhood, which has created a
rm unusual sensation. About
II o'clock on that day, Miss
V.incy Bovet, daughter of a ve

When
;;iir approached, and her
iiughtcr still absent, Mrs. Bo
;.:t became uneasy, and set out
itli the hope of meeting her
j the way. Her feelings may
jjie easily be imagined than
inscribed, when she found on
her arrival at Mr. Price's that
her daughter had not been there
hat day. She alarmed the
ivjihbors, a company went
forth, and after a diligent
fiirch thrv found the mannded
forpsc of the unfortunate victim
'.nan adjoining pond. Her bo
dy was shockingly bruised, and
iicr throat was cut to the neck
'.jone! From appearances, the
murder must have been perpe
trated at a distance oftwohun
hed yards from the pond in
which the body was found, and
the resistance must have been
Icspcrate. The ground anil
hushes at the place of conflict,
were much trodden and broken,
and some lightwood limbs that
were on the spot, appeared to
have been used by the monster
in completing his designs. The
young lady's combs were also
found, broken and scattered on
die ground. No discovery lea
ding to the detection of the
murderer, lias yet been made,
nil with the exception of its
fatal result, the whole transac
tion is yet a mystery to the
neighbourhood. It must have
taken place about noon, in a
thickly inhabited settlement,
-lad on the public road leading
from Whitehall to Fayetteville.
An Inquest was held, and a
vrnlict pronounced of 'rape and
murder, by some person un
known. Should any thing far
t'ner transpire concerning this
''Hneutable deed, I shall lake
f,n early opportunity of commu
nicating it."

The accounts from the scat

seen, though without any well
authenticated account of new
battles, are still on the advance,
and acting offensively, having
occupied Siedlec, the late head
quarters of the Russians, who,
in their turn, re-crosscd the

that indicates great weakness

Buildings of this Establishment
will be prepared for the reception of
Visitors. The Houses are large and
numeous, sufficiently so, to accom
modate an assemblage of two or three
hundred persons comfortably.
The Subscriber is flattered with
the expectation, that the convenien
ces and improvements which have
been added to this Establishment,
in all those matters which essentially
concern the health, comfort and a
musement of its visitors, will render
it the ensuing season, more attractive
than ever. The private apartments
will afford ample retirement to inva
lids, families, and others who prefer
it. They are so arranged, as to com
biAi every convenience and accom
modation suited to the largest or
smallest assembly, male and female.
Arrangements are also made, with
the particular design of accommoda
ting large families, by affording them
large spacious cabins, near to or re
mole as they may select from the
centre building, with double and sin
gle rooms, where they can be at all
times perfectly secure in the enjoy
ment of quiet retirement.
The Subscriber pledges herself (o
devote her chief exertions to the ac
commodation of private families, and
will spare no pains to render their
visits happy and agreeable, by provi
ding every thing that may contribute
to their health, and by carefully guar
ding against annoyances of every des
cription. The Public Halls arc abundantly
spacious to receive all who may de
sire company:
No Public Balls will be given at
Shocco during the season, but those
who delight in Music and Dancing
can partake of them without its dis
turbing or annoying, in the slightest
degree, the rest of the boarders.
Few Watering Places present more
rational objects of attraction than
Shocco. Located in the most heal
thy, rich and populous part of the
country, in the midst of a polished
society, it affords in its Springs and
climate many advantages, and gives
it ascendancy over all Mineral Wat
ering places to the South. It i be-
heveu that the water never faded in
its senalive effects upon persons af
flicted with Dyspepsia, Bilious disea
ses and general debility, where they
have persevered in its use.
An arrangement will be made to
have Divine Worship performed at
the Spring on the Sabbath day, when
such visitors as may choose, can at
tend preaching without inconven
ience. My terms for Board, &c. will be
the same as last year, viz. Si per day
for each grown person; 22 50 per
month, or $6 per week: Children
and Servants half price. For Horses
