We arc induced to make these remarks,
from the fact that two or three weeks ago.
party Girsics PASSED through our town
and it we are to believe reports, several of
our citizens were most egregiously hum
bugged. Now we do not know if these
reports be true, but we have heard that
some persons paid the Gipsey fortune.teI-
Ter as high as fifteen dollars, to have their
fortunes told. For the honor of our cit
izons, we hope these reports are erroneous.
Three hundrcd years ago, when Queen
Elizabeth and the nobility of England,
were wont to consult the celebrated i'm
poStor Dr. Dee, the thing was not to lie
wondered at; but in this enlightened age,
we are forced to say, that tho man who
would give a trav ling Gipsny $l5 to
have his fortuLe told, is little better than
Don Quixote, when he engaged in battle
with a wind inill.

The Charleston Merchants and Hard
Times"

An article appeared some time ago in
the Black River (Sumter) Watchman,
Which in referring to the large number Of
cases returned in that district Il 2oO) con-
cluded as follows:
The number of cases would have been
comparatively small, ii Charleston and
Northern Merchants we're not so urgent
in their unreasonable demands. 1t is re-
maikable that tue merchants Of Charles
ton arc, rs deeply implicated as any others.
We had expected better things. In fn.
ture ultimate rs well as immediate interest
will be consulted.
The Greenvillc Mountdinecr transferred
the article to lis columns, and the Spar
tanburgh E'xprcSs appears to be rather
indignant that such nm ARTICLE should have
emenated from South Carolina Journal,
and that another, by copying it, should
thns testify its approval.
Now, although not desiring to incur
the disp!easure Of the Express, we are
bound to say, that we think the Watch.
man speaks about right. OF course we
do not consider cursclf competent to CO.
incidc either way, unless we could w facts
substantiate tic opinion formed.
1t cannot be supposed, that we are con
versant with all cases which come before
the tribunal Of Lancaster By accident
though, we learned Of ono, during our last
Court, which we tninli does not speak so
FavorabIy Of the Ienicncy Of Charleston
merchants. Now, the case, gentlemen,
is just this: A merchant in this district
was iudeLt to q Cchareston house, for u
comparatively small amount, for which as
is ,he custom, he gave his note, payable
NJ six months. II it true, when Return
day came, tie note was due but it was
ouly due sholt time previous. We DO
not believe the Charleston Merchant ever
so much rs '',iunncd" he Country mer.
chant, but at once sent the note 10 n Laws.
yer. The lawyer did no; Inform our friend
that the note was in his possession for COL
lection, but on return day had sum pro
served Oh him. He went and pail the
note, together with tie cost We need
not comment on the matter, but will mere
ly observe, that it was very unkind; that
common courtesy demanded Il more gen
erous action. The house in Charleston
we know, to our certain knowledge, to be
possessed Of ample means.
The former editor Of tic ErprcSs had
unjusty accused us of ofcndeavoriRg to pre-
iudice the minds Of country merchants a.
gainst Charleston. THIS IS all gommoa,
we are a native Of CharIc. ton, and would
like to see her the first city in America
1t is from our solicitude for hoi welfare,
that we have, OH former occasions, and Oh
the present occasion, pointed ont her sui-
cilal policy. ...

The Victim of Fortune-Telling.
ny MRS. VI. 4. DESISoS.

She was young and timid, you can tell
that by her slight figure and hesitating
knonck. That puff Of wind blows the
torn veil aside-she is beautiful. Her
forehead is white, very white, and her
checks smooth, round and rosy. The
ungloved hand tells Of toll; the painting
bosom Of long and hurried walk.
The house before which SHE stands is
low, uupaintsd, neglected. A glazed sign
with very yelIew letters, distinguishes its
entrance beyond the dwellings which sur
round it. And on that sign are the words
"fortune.telling here" For moment an
uncombed, night.carped head appears
above the basement half curtain, and
then is MS suddenly withdrawn. The
pretty girl grows resolu;c, rings the moul-
dy bell, and trenbes at her audacity.
Some moments elapse; the door is as
carefully opened just FAR enough to show
a hideous face; then wider thrown, AL
mits the credulous unsuspecting girl. As
she enters, bold, ra.her handsome fea-
tured man, with an expression Of reckless
bravado, turns the street corner and moves
cautiously to the place where she disap-
peared. His waist.coat Is fashy, his
dangling brass chain, his hat tipped daint-
y over the left eye, his entire tout snssm-
Die is that OF seedy fop. Ho leans a.
gainst the wall, draws down his hat, tolds
bis arms, and with sinister smile socms
speculating.
Mem while the simpIe-hearied coun-
try girl has gone trembling through a
long, dark, unmatted passage, into a
small. dirty room. There she sits with
clustering teeth, while the faded bag
whose fea,arcs preserve no, even The dim
