Astounding Credulity.
A Gipsy Wonuui Swindles a Man out oj
Six Thousand Dollars.
A. A. He eves is a quiet, well-to-do j
farmer, living about six miles north
west of Springfield, on the George
town load Hy hard work and frugal j
living he had acquired the farm uj>on
which he resides, and about one tlious j
and dollars in money. Week before
last, however, he was victimized in an
almost incredible manner to iho ex
tent ofsix thousand dollars—an amount
which it will perhaps take half the
earnings of his lifetime to repay.
On Thursday, August 1, a company
of gipsies, consisting of three men ami
one woman,encamped near Mr .Reeves
house. The woman called on Mi-
Reeves the same day, representing to
him that she was a clairvoyant foi
tune-teller, and that she was endowed
with a seer t gilt, which enabled her
te reveal the past and future of all
things sublunary.
Furthermore, she informed Mr.
Reeves that she was a spiritualist, and
that tlie spirits had communicated to
her the astounding tact that somewhere
on his (Mr. Reeves') farm immense;
quantities of gold and silver had been
hidden by some one, at a time'whence
the memory of man runneth not to'
the contrary.' The charming woman I
continued to visit Mr. Reeves' house j
from day to day, finally informing him
that the spirits would not deign to tell i
where the treasury was deposited un :
til she could he temporarily placed in
possession of six thousand dollars with i
| which to perform the necessary inc-an
tation. Strange as it may seem, Mr
Reeves gave credence to this story; the
! woman completely infatuated him.
leading him withersoever she would
lie promised Iter that lie would obtain
the money (six thousand dollars), and
each swore tho other to eternal sccro
>y-
Mr. Reeves had nine hundred and
sixty-five dollars in his own possession,
and ho quietly borrowed enough from
LEWISTOWN, MIFFLIN COUNTY, PA-
different members of the family to
make up the thousand, without hint
ing tho purpose for which he wanted
it. lie then came toSeduiia and mort
gaged his farm to Mr. Ileeve Hughes
to the amount of five thousand dollars,
payable in ninety days, at two and a
hall per cent, a month. He thereupon
returned home, without informing any
mcmber of his family what his mis
sion had been to Scdalia, stealthily
met his enchantress and told her lie
was ready for the incantation. The
woman took the money, made a roll
of it, wrapped it securely in a piece of;
cotton cloth, and, as if to make assur
ance doubly sure, she then took a longl
string and tied it many times around
tho roll of money. She returned the
next day, when the final ceremonies
took place, which were to inevitably
extort a revelation from the spirits as
to the exact locality where tho treas
ure was to bo found. She took Mr.
.Reeves into a room where there could
be no witness of the mysterious con
jurations, and had him to stand in the!
middle of the fioor, and with uplifted
hands repeated the Lord's prayer,;
vvhilo she, in possession of'the pack ago |
of money, performed evolutions round
about him, mysteriously chanting dur
ing the time.
This performance concluded, the wo
man placed what was ostensibly the
package of money in one of Mr. Reeves'
hands, and charged him, not to let the
package go out of that particular
hand until he had hidden it in some
safe and secret place, where undisturb
ed, it was to remain for a period of
four days, when Mr. -Reeves was tc go
and get it and meet his enchantress at
a spring near by, when the two in
company would proceed to the place
were the hidden treasure was buried.
Mr. Hi ■eves obeyed these injunctions,
strictly, telling no one of the transac
tions, bid what he supposed was his
package of six thousand dollars safely
away, and at the exact moment, when'
the four days expired, sought the
package and found it contained the j
disconnected fragments of one of Roa
die's dime novels. Our readers can
imagine Mr Reeves' feelings of disap-i
pointment, indignation, and chagrin
at this stage of the proceedings. lie
sought his charmer at the spring, but
alas! she was nowhere visible. The
gipsies had
'Folded their tents like Arabs,
And sternly stole away.'
An Opportune Arrival.
In the year I was engaged in
collecting outstanding debts duo tho
Apalachian, a paper published in Blairs
ville, Indiana co., Pennsylvania, and
my business led mo to the Cherry
Tree, at the headwaters of tho Sus
quehanna river. It was in May, and
the flowers were out in all their pris
tine beauty. The water in the river
was still pretty high, and I had ridden
some distance along the bank, when
my path diverged from the river side
and then suddenly came back to the
margin, just where the river took a
turn and the water deepened. As 1
approached, I heard some one sobbing
as if in the greatest distress, and on
looking down the river I discovered a;
young girl, apparently about fifteen or;
sixteen years of age, and remarkably 1
good looking, wringing her hands and
moaning in (.ho most deplorable man
nor. 1 asked her what was the matter,
and between her sobs I made out the j
following :
'I was playing on—this—log—and 1
—my baby tell in the water, —and—
th—there it goes down th—there.'
And upon looking down the stream,
about four or five yards from the shore i
there floated a child, its one little hand i
raised above (lie rippling waves, while
its little head and face bobbed up and
down with every curve of the water.
Without a moment's thought 1 sprung
from my horse, and into the stream; a
few strokes brought me to the little
'innocent.' Carefully putting my left
hand under it, and holding it almost
completely out of the water with my
right, I made my way to shore an I
carefully gathering it in my arms, 1
laid it gently in the arms of its little 1
nurse, but judge of my surprise, when !
I beheld—for I had not time to look
at. it before that it was a doll baby,!
w ilh i) china head ! On looking around
tut' my liot.se, I saw him just disup
pearing over tho hill. 1 gave chase,
but my clothes were wet, and I didn't 1
overtake hint until I had footed it lor
more than seven miles. I can't leai
the sight of a doll baby since. If J
ever came across that girl again—well.
I suppose she is a girl no longer, and
has found out the difference ere this)
between real and doll babies; built
wonder if she remembers the stranger
who rescued her darling?

s nak.es.
Back ol L- ort Erie, Canada, is an
immense swamp, covering several hun
dred acres, which, owing to the ex
treme drouth, lias been in condition to
be burned over, and in it tiro has been
doing its work for some time, but
causing little harm, except to the rat
tlesnakes and other reptiles with which
tho swamp is infested. Not long since,
says the Buffalo Express, a portion of
this reptile-haunted swamp was the
locality of a very- melancholy occur
rence, which produced great feelin-'
and excitement throughout the neigh
boring country. A party from the
farther side of the swamp, living at or
near Port Colborn, ventured into its
recesses upon a berrying expedition.
One of the company was a mother,
with an infant child. The child fell
asleep, and its mother deposited it on
her shawl upon a comfortable bed of
moss or grass, while she pursued the
quest for fruit.
Unconsciously she wandered farther
than she meant from the sleeping in
fant, and started suddenly to find it
out of her sight, became bewildered,
and lost all reckoning of tho place.
Tho friends, all summoned to the
I search, scoured every part in vain.
Ihe hunt grew frantic as darkness
{came on, and when gathering ni 'ht
drove tho party from the swamp, they
collected neighbors from every direc
tion and entered again with lanterns
and torches. All night the search went
ion, and not until after morning dawn
was tho lost infant found. Too late.
The child was dead. It had died the
horrible death which a mother's shud
dering fancy must have constantly
pictured during the search. It had
been struck by the deadly fangs of a
rattlesnake, having roused the reptile,
probably, by its struggles and cries.
I'wo school teachers in Indiana
fell out and had a fight. A great crowd
was, of course, tho necessary conse
quence. A nervous individual came
up, in breathless excitement, and in
quired of a wag the cause.
