Tue GIPsIEs.-A family of these wan
dering specimens of humanity have been en-
camped within our city for week past. Their
nationality, if they have any. cannot well be
determ ned from their looks language or man
ners, although they speak good English The
men make themselves useful by grinding
knives and mending umbrellas. while the
female department pursue the more lucrative
employment Of fortune telling. A dollar is
said TO be the usual charge for an ordinary
fortune, while some are so indicative of good
luck that nothing less an five dollars will
open the lips OF the prophecies. We presume.
however that even n Eve cent fortune might
be told by them when no larger fee could he
had. Their principal use in this community,
will be to verify the truth Of the old provcrb
that fool and his money are soon parted.
