II becomes our painful duty 10 re-
cord one OF the most outrageous trans-
actions that has occurred since the set.

enabled to collect the following rarti-
cuLlrs, from the information of ira
weller who has Just passed through
The neighborhood, and, in whose We
racity we place the utmost coniidenccj'
Ii seems that party OF Indians.te
IN number, consisting oil three r1en,
three women, TWO girls about half
grown, and two small boys were en-.
camped on Fall Greek, in Madison
county, eight miles above the Falls
and 35 miles above this place, for the
purpose Of hunting. On Monday the
22d of this Instant, party of five white
men and two boys went to the camp
aud decoyed the three men away from
the camp, for the ostcnsiblc purpose
OF assisting them to hunt Some cattle,
Aller they had gone some distance
from the camp, two Of the Indians
were shot dead; the third made his
escape, badly wounded. In thr even.
ing Of the same day, the same party
returned to the camp, and, after ma
king some professions Of friendship,
murdered the whole Of the women and
children. Their bodies were most
shockinely mangied, for the. purpose
Of producing an impression that it was
the work OF Indians, and thrown into
hole Of water occasioned by the fall
) ing Of tree. One Of the men killed
one Of The. children by taking it by
the heels and beating its brains out a.
gainst tree On Tuesday, the place
was visited by party of men, when /,
one Of the women was found still alive,
bit died on the evening Of The next
day. At the time the camp was first
visited, after the massacre. the proper
! ty Of the Indians, consisting Of guns,
fnrs, &c. was still at the camp and was
visited by party of men from the falls
of Fall Greek, the bodies were found
entirely stripped, and every species Of
property carried away.
We are further informed, that one OF
the lads concerned in The murder land
who was compelled to assist, by the
threats of his fathcr,) soon after the
transaction, gave Information, and five
OF the party concerned were immedi-
ately arrested, and are now in custody
at the falls OF Fall Greek; one made
his escape, and the youth who gave
the information is said to be at liberty
in the neighborhood. Since their are

made n full confession.

IlPrAEonIA, celebrated lady Of antiquity, W.!
was born a. Maronca, city of lEracc, and flour
ished in the time of Alexander, addicted herself to
philosophy, and was 50 charmed with the cync
Crates discourse, that she was determined TO mar
ry him at any rate. She addressed BY a great
many lovers, who were handsome men, and di>tin-
gushcd BY their rank and riches AMI ncr rcG.t.ors
pressed her to choose husband from these n@t
She answc cred that She had sufficiently considered
the affair, and persuaded that no coull be
richer and handsomer than Crates and that i t,,l
would not marry hcrto him, she would stab hers, h.
Upon this her friends had recourse Crates himself
desired him to exert all his eloquence, and 70 use
all his authority in order to cure her of her passion
lie did so but she still continued obstinate and re,
solved. At last finding arguments ncf ,ctu,t he
display cd his pc;crty before her; lie showed his
crooked back, his cloak, bis bag and told her that
she could not be his wife, wthou, leading such life
as his sect prescribed She declared herself inf
ntely pleased with the proposal, and took the habil
of the order. Sine loved Crates to such degree
that she ramblcd every where, and sent to enter
talnmcnts, WITH him; though this WA, what tn,
other Grccian ladies never DID.
