A WoMAN's REVENGE James Andrews, a
daguerreotypist of New Orleans, lived with
Mrs. Mary Ann Charles two years without
being married, then stole her money and mar
ried another woman. On the oath ult., Mrs.
Charles procured beautiful pearl handled
dagger. and crossed the street, intending to
reach the daguerrean saloon of Andrews and
strike him while in the act of transferring the
features Of some fair one to the metallic plate.
She met him on the sidewalk, and quick as
thought the glistening blade had pierced his
neck. As he turned and reeled, she inflicted
two more wounds on his left arm, and before
the bystanders that thronged the sidewalk, at
the time, could interfere, she gave him anoth-
er stab in the thigh, when the dagger dropped
from ner hand. With the utmost GOODNESS
she then forced her way through the crowd,
no one attempting to interfere, and proceeded
to a carriage in waiting at the next corner and
