Strange Credulity A f l,OC 3 S wtftil. j
About two weeks ago, a a gentleman
farmer, living in Madison count y, was ri
ding towards -bis borne, "net for distant, be
oberred a man and a woman by the road
side; engaged in repairing tin ware- . A few
days afterward 1 woman called at hnr
house, and, after soibe ton vereationr asked
binr if he did not recollect her. H replied
that he did not. She then told him that
she bad seen him on the road aeay-
hafnrm nnA that hia nnnraranCB bad jnauO
her mind, that J
she was compelled to call and see him
She told hin lhat she was a astrologer,
and that she was well acquainted with its
mysteries. She saw at once thai h was
-nn extraordinary person, and knew that be
bad been- born under a particular planet.
and tbat great tning -him.
She then took from necapron a book
which seemed to contain a number of dia
grams, figures, &c, and read from it, in an
unknown tongue, a. few hocus pocus"
s-ntencesaftet whichxlosing-tr and put
ting if back into its biding place, she went
into the kitchen, bought a few pounds of
butter of the wife of the. gentleman, for
which she paid liberally, and .went oo- her
A few days afterwards, the woman call
ed again, reiterating wbut she had said on
her first visit, the farmer paying but little
mention to what she said, looking upon
the whole affair as an attempt to humbug
him. Not.at all discouraged, the , woman
sailed again the next day, and wound up
her conversation by saying that she knew
where three hat-crowns full of gold had
been buried upon his farm, and that, if he
would do as she directdd,they could recov
er it ; but that it was necessary to allay the
spirits lhat stood guard over it ; that a large
sum of money must be present with them
at the incantation. She thought that five
thousand dollars would be . required, but
was not sure as to the amount and she
proposed, if he would go into it, and furn
ish the money, tbat she would . give him
iwo-ihirds of the treasure, while she would
reserve the other one-third ae her share.
Up to this: time, the farmer appears to
have had no confidence in the woman ; but
as she took his hand, and traced the mys
terious lines therein, telling him the great
things in store for him, he began to place
some- confidence in her, especially as 6be
had told him some things that had occurr
ed in his life that he supposed had never
been known. About this time he sold a
large lot of cattle, for which he received in
cash about 94,000. . The next day the wo
man called again, and said that $3,000 was
the amount required to be present to allay
the spirits. The farmer then produced. the
package of money received for the cattle,
and the two sat down to a table and count
ed out $3,000 in bank notes, excepting
four small gold coins. The money . was
then folded up and put into a handkerchief,
the woman all the time making strange
motions and talking strange talk.
The next day and the day after the wo
man called again, each time counting the
money as before, making the same signs,
&c, but leaving the money with the farm
er, wrapped up in the handkerchief. At
- the next visit, she required him to take a
solemn oath that he was not to tell to a liv
ing soul the object they were in pursuit of,
that she was going away, to be absent a
short time ; he was not to look at the pack
age of money at any time excepting when
she was present: and, after making an ear
nest prayer, she took hold of him while she
held the package of money in her hand,
and swung him around, so that they came
together back to back. She then gave him
back the handkerchief, as he supposed, all
... . . i
ngar, ana toia aim mat sue wouiu return
on the 15tb, 16th, or 1 7th of August, and
then they would go inompany nnd secure
the hidden treasure. 'Oh the" 15th he hard
ly expected to meet her, and was not disap
pointed tbat she dil not come. On the
16th he set up late at night expecting her
arrival. v - .
After waiting till near midnight on the
1 7th, he began to suspect all was not right,
and be feared all this might be a trap to rob
him. bo strong did this suspicion fasten
upon him, that be took up bis gun, loaded
it, and went out into the shrubbery surroun
ding the house, where he could see all who
approached without being seen, and re
mained there until two o'clock in the mor
ning. But no one came. As the time had
elapsed lhat was set by his fair visiter, he
considered himself absolved from his obli
gation, never doubting in the least but that
uis money was sateiy deposited in the hand
kerchief. . .- '
Unrolling it carefully, what was his dis
may at seeing, not a roll of bank bills, and
four pieces of gold, as he had left it, but a
package of brown paper and four cents, in
lieu thereof. Even the handkerchief had
been changed ; instead of being bis own,
it was one precisely similar. Une of the
strangest thing in nil this strange transac
tion is that a counterfeit five dollar bill that
'was placed in the package df money was
taken, out of it, and returned in the roll of
brown paper. How this was done is a
mystery we cannot solve. " The fanner who
has been so completely bamboozled out of
3,000, now seeks to find some remedy at
law. - -Strange
as this story may appear to many,
we have the facts from the most undoubted
authority, and we have given them just as
they occurred. We can sympathize with
out friend the farmer, in the loss of his mo
ney, for he is not the first of the masculine
gender who has been, and alas, who will
be duped by a pretty woman. "

:-t DEATH OF A PATRIOT.
Mr. William Rogers, whose death we
chronicle to-day, was a native of Poole.
Enr..i and bred to the sea. At the are
of 21, about the beginning of the present
centurr. he entered the United atates na
val service as a seaman, and served in lh
Mediterunean squadron under Commodore
Preble, m our war with 1 npoh. He was
one of the gallant crew headed by the late
Commodore (then Ijt.) btephen Uecatnr,
who in 1503 executed the brilliant and
perilous achievement of boarding and burn
the frigate Philadelphia in the harbor of
Tripoli, and under the guns of its batteries
an achievement which has few parallels
for desperate courage and heroic daring in
the annals of naval warfare.

THE USED tP.
Tne I hare been fluug,
' Sky high and worse than that,
The girl whose praises I have sang,
vTfeib pen, with pencil and with tongue,
Said NO f and I fell flat !
!. Kow,l will neither war nor rant,
Nor my bard fate deplore,
Why should a fellow look aslant, -If
one girl says she won't or cau't,
While there's so many more.
I strove my best, it would not dof
I told her abe'd regret ;
She'd ruin my heart and chances too,
Aa girls don't like those follows who
Their walking-papers get."
Ia truth I loved her very well,
And thought that she loved m,
Trie reason why, I cannot tell.
But when I wooed this pretty belle,
'Twas a mistake in nie.
JShe'a dark of rye and her sweet smiiV,-
Like some of which I've read,
Is f;irse for she with softest guile,
Lnr'd me 'mong rocks near lores bright isle,
And then she cnt roe dead.
, My vanity was wounded sore,
; And that I hate the worst ;
You see, a hnnjhty look I wore,
And thought. she could not but adore,
Of all men me the first.
Well, thank the f.ites, once more I'm free,.
At every shrine I'll bow ; j.
And if again girl cheats me'.
Exceeding sharp I guess she'll be,
I've cut my eye-teeth now. -
THE LABORER AND WARRIOR,
cv r.PKs sB(if:yT.
The camp has had its day of song,
The sword, the bayonet, the plume.
Have crowded out of rhyme too long
The plough, the anvil, and the loom I
Oh ! not upon your tented fields
Arc freedom's heroes bred alone ;
The training of the workshop yields
M are heroes than the war has known.
Who drives the holt, who shapes the itccf.
May with a heart as valiant smite
As he who sees a fucman reel
In blood before his blow of might ;
The skill that conquers space and time,
That graces life, that lightens toil,
May spring from couraj;e more sublime
. Than tbat which makes a realm a spiil,-
Let labor then look up and see
His craft no path of honor lacks ;
The soldier's title yet shnll bo
Less honored than the woodman's axe ;
Let art his own appointment prize,
Xor deem that gold or outward light
Can compensate the worth that lies
In tastes that breed their own delight-
And may the time draw nearer still,
When man this sacred truth shall 1. e 1,
That from the thought and from the will
Must all that raises man proceed ;
Though pride inay hold our calling low,
For ns shall duty make it good,
And we from truth to truth shall go,
Till life and death are understood.
CHARITY.
A beggar, cripled, starved anMitiid,
Rehearsed his doleful story
To half a score of auditors
Who all looked vastly sorry.
' Sonic pitied much, some very ruueh.

But not one cent did they bestow
To help the man of need.
At length a Frenchman forward stepp'd
In pity half, half choler,
And emptying his pursr " by garc !

MISCELLANY
ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER WASHINGTON
AT NEW YORK.
The Queen's SpeechSpanish Affairs, d-c.
New York, Aug. 31. The steamer
Washington from Havre and Soutln
atnpton, arrived at 12 o'clock this morn
ing. Her news is superseded by the
Etiropa, but she biings some inteiestirig
details not forwarded from Halifax.
Til K QUEEN S SPEECH.
Parliament was prorogued on the 12th:
by the Queen in person. She was re
ceived along the- whole route by the
most enthusiastic cheers. 1 he follow
ing is the substance of her speech :
A tier returning thanks for the zeal and
energy shown by Parliament iu provi
ding incans lor the vigorous prosecution
of the war, she said :
In cordial co-operation with the Em
peror of the French, my efforts will be
directed to the effectual repression of
lhat ambitious aud aggressive spirit on
the part of Russia, which has compelled
us to take up arm? in defence of an ally
and to secure the future tranquility of
of Europe ; you will join with me in
admiration of the courage and persever
ance manifested by the troops of the
Sultan in defence of Silistiia, and in
various military operations on the Dan
,ube. The rest of the Speech is quite loca'J
in character, and matters connected with
the war prevented the consideration of
subjects promised to bo brought forward
at the opening of the session.
'The soldier-monks are the most ganjin
ary among the troops of Charles V. The j
are charitable enough io offer their conso
lations to the ill-atarted prisoner -who haw
fallen into their hands; but ther always
insist on the 'shririi time' betn short
glad, no doubt, to send a soul of their
cleansing before ita Maker. The horrible-
massacre of Keridea, where cm hundred'
and sixteen prisoners vere shot, fire-and-fire
after a march of fifteen miles, naked, orer
the mountains, was committed and hasten
ed by the same organs. The government
threat, of shutting up and confiscating the-
property ot every monaster? whose inma
tes should join the rebels, had delerreJ but
few from braving all its consequences.'
Lt every American bear the above liis-
torical facts in mind,and when he hears
tne allies of priests prate about secret or
ganization, .direct ... their attention to that.
