SEDUCTION OF A BEAUTIFUL QUAKER GfRL.
The New York papers contain the %partica-
lars Of an extraordinary case Of seduction.
The victim is lady Of the Society OF Friends,
and the case is exciting more than ordinary
interest from the fact that few ladies' of that
peculiar sect, are ever found strayine from
the paths Of y~lrtuous prcpricty. The parties
are DR.. John c. Taylor and Miss Emily
Greenwood, of Tialstcad in Essex county,
England. They arrived at New York last
week, and put up at the Astor House as man
and wife. The lady is aged 90, and is the
daughter Of Mrs. Greenwood, a respectable
widow lady, residing at H~alstead in Essex,
about sixteen miles from London. Dr.. John
Cornelius Taylor was an intimate friend and
the medical attendant Of the family, aged 35--
has abandoned a wife and three children
disposed Of his practice--turned his effects
into rhony, and came offwith about $4,000 in
his pocket. The family Of the lady have sent
after her, and the British Consul in New
York, has endeavored to induce her to quit
her seducer and return TO England. The
Doctor has been arrested and is now at large
on bail. When he vas arrested the young
Qnakeress went with him to the lookup
house. Since then they have gone into pri-
vate lodgings.

THs rAuirr.--Ths readers attention Is in.
,i,ed to the article on our first page, under the
caption, " Beauties Of Free Traae,' etc. From
this il appears that Americans arc silly enough

Ills astonishing that, after the production
of such testimony, there should be found IN
the country one advocate Of our ruinous syS-
tem Of free trade.
TO free trade, IL all other nations could be
brought 10 harmonise ia the project, there
could be no objection. Every Amcflran would

The cRoPs.-From the hest information we
can gather, we are OF opinion that the prospect
of the approaching crops has been much over
rated. We have conversed with several gen.
tlemen from the country, who state that the
cotton crop upon many plantations is much
injured by the rust, and that the recent rains
have started it to growing afresh. The ge-
neral opinion is that the cotton crop Of the
present year will not be more than an average
one.
The corn crop is unusually fine in every
section of the country We have heard from.
1t is believed j. will be the most abundant
crop ever raised in Mlsssissippi.-Ficksburg

MuHnrn.-A gentleman who arrived the
other day from Re River, informs us that
Shreveport has again become the theatre of
cold-blooded murder. The facts stated are as
follow
Boyle, who killed Sewell a few weeks ago,
was arrested in Texas, whittier he had fled,
brought back and lodged in the Jail at Shreve-
port. In an icipaticn eth. of the escape
of the prisoner, or an attack on him by those
whose friend he had murdered, a guard of two
men was stationed at the Jail. About mid
night, the goth instant, the guards absealed
themselves from their station for a short Pc
Rod, 10 take some retreshment. In the mean
time the prison doors were forced open, and
Boyle, who was manacled and chained to the
door, shot through the head and body with two
balls. The different reports Of the gun were
distinctly heard, and the guards, accompanied
by other c%itigens, FASTENED TO the spot. The
prison doors were found forced open, but no
clue detected by which the author of the
crime could be made known. That the muir
der was perpetrated by a friend or the friends
of The unfortunate Sewell, no doubt can be en-
tertained. A violent feud, in which many CT
tizens have become interested, for one party
or the other, has sprung up between a brother
Of the deceased sewell, one DR.. Hardwick, and
others. Hardwick and Boyle murdered Sew
eli in a brutal manner, without any apparent
cause. The deceased was a quiet. peaceable
man, who endeatored 10 avoid difficulty with
his neishbors, by abstainins from all grounds
ri offence. The brother, vet living, is residing
al a distance from town, surrounded BY men
ready "to do or die FOR him while the oppo-
site clan are painting for his life. DIR. Hard
wick finds himself IN similar circumstances
The citizens all, or nearly all, go armed, pre-
pared AT a moments warning to JOIN in any
male that may occur. This is a sad state of
affairs; the citizens Of Shreveport are unfor-
tunate in their choice of summer amusements.

This is an action in which the wife claims

to return, which, after legal notification, he
has failed to obey; by reason thereof il is or

CURIOUS APPEARANCE or THE EAKTH-
Clayton recently made a successful ascension
in a balloon from Columbus, Ohio. Among
the remarka in his Journal OF the aerial trip
We were struck by the following :--
From the questions that | am frequently
asked, an idea seems 10 exist with many that
nronauis lose sight Of the earth when at great
heights. This is a mistake they never do,
except when clouds intervene or night appears.
On the contrary, the earth is always like an
immense concave map, painted different col
ors, which designate not the different town
ships or counties, az the c~oloring Of maps &c.
morally do, but the various products OF the soil.
That the earth, which in reality ia convex,
should appear to the eronaut to be coucave,
may nj first seem strange 10 many, but a mo-
ment's reflection will render it clear. His
horizon is frequently upwards Of a hundred
miles from him. Draw right.angled TRAN
gle, and nuke the base line fifty or sixty times
as long as the perpendicular, the hypothcpnse
and base will then be- nearly in the same line.
The horizon appears to the nronaut TO be on
a perfect level with the car of the balloon ;
but the part Of the earth directly underneath
him seems at a great distance from him, con-
sequenily the whole surface OF his scene must
appear concate.
