A DEMOCRAT.

Mr. MiLL,R, the end ofthe world prophet, is put
tug up lid brick wall around his farm near
White Hall, New York, which will probably en-,
dure for thousand years. A person offered him
$4,000 for the farm and not to take possession till
after Is43; the prudent prophet refused however,
all'eing that such an Offer depending, as it does,
upon a future event is nothing more than gambling

ALBANY PoLtcE-A Curious Case Of Fc-
male Deception One ofthose strange and al
most unaccountable cases of deception which
we hear of once or twice in an age, was de-
velopcd at the police office on Saturday after.
noon. A person who has for the last four years
followed the business Oft tinker and teamstcr
alternately in this city, and who is we'll known
TO many of our citizens was brought up before
Justice Osbourn, CHARGED with hanging out
false Sgnals-bcinE not exactly what outward
ing persons to beeyc-saing under false
colors.
About two weeks since this person was mar
rjed to a very respectable and hard working
girl who by her industry had laid up a con-
siderable sum Of moncy--The poor girl found
out in few days that all is not gold that gilt
ters-that appearances are dcceitul-in short
that her dear husband was icomdu This
fact being fully established to the satisfaction
of all parties, the faithless swain or rather de-
ceitfu iade-was arrested, examined at the po-
lice, and sent TO jail A crowd of the curious
followed her Iadyship to her new lodgings
making many original and spirited remarks,
called out by the novelty of the case.
No other reason can be assigned for this
strange marriage alliance except the desire on
the part of the husband to possess himself of
the money which the object Of his affections had
saved Up from her hard earnings and unwearicd
industry.-AiJany Cii=en.
