The Old Swamp NFiser,

There is now living in the swamp Of the Little -Pedee River, South Carolina. an old man of the most singular charac. ter. He never owned but one pair Of shoes in his life, and he says they were so hot he never we're them but once. He never cultivated the soil; neye, the less he has accumulated large sum of money, which he deposits in old hollow trees in the most unftequenied swamps. He effects extteme pove. ty, and when applied to for the loan of money. be 6r- cla'es he has none; but if the seculi ' pleases him, and promises to. pay in specie, he will appoint a day when he will try to get a little. which he never fails to do!
