DARK SpoTs IN REAL / IFE-A
young married man named Van
IZandtis now in custody at New York
for seducing and abducting his
wife's younger sister, n Miss Egbert,
a pretty girl of seventeen years.
He had abandoned his wife and with
the sister had gone to Trenton, where
they we're pursued by the mother of
the girl and a police officer. When
arrested d scene of the most affect
| ing nature took place. The young
girl on bd holding her mother, and at
the separation from the man she
loved, was thrown into state of ex-
element; and as she was on the eve
of her acdouchment the pains Of Ia
Dor were Brought on, and that night
she was delivered of a daughter
She denies that Van Zandt seduced
or abducted her; she says she was the
cause of all, as she loved him before
her sister married him, and she was
determined to have him.-GGn. Eng.
BISHOP CApERs.-We are pleased
to learn that this distinguished di-
vine is rapidly recovering from the
severe illness, which has so long inca
pacitated him for mental or physical
labor. A letter was received by John
II. Mann, Esq, of this city, day or
two since, which states that he is now
able to perform religious services at
least once every Sunday. His many
friends in Georgia, will rejoice to
hear of his reviving health and
Republic. |
THE CRoPs IN GEoRGIA.-We
are not among those who counter
ance that eternal outcry about short
crops; but we are persuaded that if
the drouth continues in middle
Georgia much longer, we shall
make a miserable showing of a cot
Ion crop. According to the infor-
nation Of our friend s. t. Chap
man. esq, Of the journal & Hes
'cnger, some sixty counties have
been heard from lately and though
lie Nstand'' of cotton is generally
good, it can make no progress for
want of rain. There is no doubt
hat much longer continuance of
he frightful drouth which has visit
ID Georgia for some time past,s will
how US rather unsatisfactory re-
;ults. Rain alone is wa nted. It'll
$ conceded on all hands, that the
wheat crop IN Georgia and Tennes-
zee is the finest produced for many j
Tears.-Smionaah Republican, 9Th. Il
