An old peddlcr by the name of
Burchard exchanged over coats with
Ii. p. Sherwin, the other day, leaving
one worth about 81 so and taking one

followed the old fellow the next MORN

John B. Howden left here rather
suddenly some two or three years since,
leaving a wife and child to depend on
the charity of their friends. About
eighteen months since she received a
letter from him mailed at Bardwell Ky.,
in which he went on 10 cay that hc was
sorry for his deviltry and abuse, and if
she would come to him he would fulfill
his contract to love, cherish, &c. She
contlding women, packed up and left
for he Southtner. He received her with
open arms and for time all went well.
Soon he became uneasy, and in June
last he deserted them leaving them des-
tstute among strangers. Since that
time she has kept the wolf from her
door by washing and other labor that
she could find to do. A few weeks
since, her friends in this vicinity sent
her the means, and she is now at the
residence of her sister in this village,
with her faith somewhat weakened in
mankind in general, and John b. How
den in particular.
