' " • , I was journeying to the city of Washing ton in company with a; friend ; a Georgian boy, like myself. We went, as thousands have gone before an_itaince, to try our luck at offiee.hunting. You are well aware That the, road from Georgia to Washington passed through the Palmetto State, a State distinguished for the fertility. of. its soil, as well as for the wealth,. chivalry, and i,ntel, ligence of her sons. Here the Major wink ed knowingly at the company with one eye, while ho kept the other fixed. ,on tho South Carolinian. I thought myself a smart , traveller, young then, but compared with my companion I was as green' as He was naturally sharp, as a briar, and ex perience had polished his wits to the keen ness of a cambric needle. His game was Cobb, Willey Cobb. We started from home on a capital of $3OO. It was all that we could rake to. gether. But we had a couple of stout Georgia ponies; and this, we concluded, would be ,enough to put us through to Washington and back. If we're stumped, said Cobb, we can sell the cattle.: • Unfortunately, before entering the Pal metto State it was our luck to pass thro' the town of Augusta, on the Georgia side. Augusta has always been considered „a brisk little place. We found it so. Not being in a hurry we agreed to stay over 'ght and nest day. We had fallen in with some very agreeable acquaintances. We got to playing; at 'first a ninepenny po ker—then a quarter dollar 100- r -then brag; and finally our Augusta friends introdu ced us to the interesting game of faro.-- 7 We played all night, and by day-break had depositedour three hundred dollars in the bank, where it stayed! . What's to be done? said I. . Pin thinking, said Cobb. Sel,l the ponies and start back! said I. No such thing Ats rply responded Cobb. ,„ .

We must sell the bowie first, said Cobb, it tvjll pay our tavern bill, and get, us out Of this infernal hole I • And. what neat--on to Washington ? I enquired. • • Of course, -said Cobb, we ; would look wise turning back—We would. certainly ,be the,standing joke of the county, added hp; But can we travel without funds? said L That .we will have to find out, said Cobb, with a look as cheerful and happy as if lie had relays of horses all along the road to Washington, and his bill paid at every tavern along the route. have an acquaintance, continued he, at the end- of the first stage from, - here, we can stop all night. with him; that won't cost anything;..beyond that wo must trust to the • hospitality of farmers; I ~think wo can get through ,South Carolina and'Vir ginia handsomely ; the danger is, we may stick in.the tar—womust travel through the turpentine State on the proceeds of your pistbls ; but 'let. us dispose of your bowie, and get out of this' sharper's nest, ; , As Cobb was my senior, and inlyty es tinatttion a great genius, I of course acqui eseedille sold the,bowie knife to one of our gambling- friends for six dollars, the tavern bill was liquidated, leaving a ,few Shillings in our joint, purse, and With this we took the road through to South Caro lina. r 0 the, At the end of the first day we stopped with Cobb's friend, and . were hospitably entertained. Cobb felt a strong incliria tion to borrow from him,..but he could not bring himself to confess the caaso of our necessity; Ho. had a high idea of } his tra velling talents, and did not wish to ac knowledge ho had been outwitted, by the Augusta sharpers. We left ,his friend's house therefore, after, an excellent break •fast,. our horses well fed and curried,. but without an increase of our fintinees..; the contrary, we had given a quarter to, the darkey who had saddled our horses.

So it is—your right—it'll do, said he; and we rode on in silence, he buried in profound meditation, evidently. maturing his plans, and I dying of curiosity to know them.

On Saturday evening, about half-past seven o'clock, Louis Rod, a young Ger man, seed about 21 years, was murdered by Charlotte Levering, an Irish woman, aged about 20 years. The parties were engaged in the Mount Pleasant rcfrectory, at the corner of Ninth and Lodge alley, above Chesnut street. The deceased was the cook of the establishment, and the woman Levering was employed in the culinary department of the house. A great intimacy had for some time existed between them. At various periods they had quarrels which were made up again. On Saturday evening, a new difficulty"a rose between them, the precise cause of which is not known. The cook ordered her to clean oir a table, which she refused to do. Mutual recrimination passed' be tween them ; and the woman, Charlotte Levering, seizing a large carving knife, the blade of which was twelve or thirteen inches in length, threatened to stab him if he repeated .his words. He bared his breast and invited the blow, and the wo man immediately plunged the knife in his body. The bladeentercd below the heart. making a dreadful wound., Mr. Debau fre, one of the proprietors of the house, hearing the noise rushed below, and enter ed the kitchen just as Rod fell back from the effects of the blow, and caught him in bis arms. The gash was horrible, and the man died' in less than five minutes af ter its infliction, having iq, vain tried to speak. The Woman, Charlotte, escaped, but was pursued by one of the waiters in' the establishment, who caught her in Lodge alley and arrested her. . The Coroner held an inquest on the bed= dy, the jury rendered a verdict "that the deceased, Louis Rod, came to his death by wounds inflicted at the hands of Char lotto Levering " The murderess was taken to the north east lockup, and the body of Rod taken in charge by the Coroner. A hearing of the woman will take place this meriting before. Mayor Swift. She subsequently escaped, during the exciternot, and iii the street enquired for the residence of Mayor On being informed, she repaired to his house, rang the bell, enitTed, and told the Mayor that she had killed Rod.— The Mayor thought her insane, but finally. Olt for. an officer, and had her secured. •'• Finra thin I'enneyl"l iinn of Septernb , t 1811,‘ gurclei' of liod,—The excitement, rel ative to the dreadful tragedy at the corner of Ninth street and Lodge alley,. Was somewhat increased yesterday, in cons°. tiuthiee of a suppoSed hearing of the mur deress, before Mayor Swift. The crowd about the police office was numerous, ev ery avenue being blocked up with an ex cited multitude. Charlotte Levering; tli• accused, is rather a good-looking young Irish wornan, but from her counte. twice, one is led to suppose that she has been the child of misfortune. She was married, during the summer of 1848, to a sailor, who shortly after deserted her, when she made her home at a house in Water street, above Chestnut. Complaint, ofthe harsh treatment received from her husband, was made at the police office, soon after, marriage. She has also resided ut a number of other places in the city and districts. 'Charlotte alleges, that it was :far -from her intention to murder young .Rod, :and feels her deplorable situation. -- Yesterday, she was committed to Moya mousing prison, but will have a hearing before • Mayor Swift to-morrow morning, At 10. o'clock.

S. ship Independence; bound ! for the Mediteranean. Previous to his departure, he left an allotment licket, of half pay to her, at the office of'Williain. Sloanaker, Esq., Navy Agent. In conse quence of her 'marriage ' she left the fami , ly of Mr. Hanson, and has been living in different places since that time. Shoal., ways acted an honest part towards those, with whom she lived. About six weeks or two months. ago, she, ' engaged to do,work in the kitchen, at the, Hotel, comer of Ninth street and Lodge alley, and it was here that Lewis Rod saw her for the first time. He was struck, with her beauty, made certain advances, and of ected.to be deeply in love with her. She did not divulge her marriage to any, one about the establishment, and the.-ad= vances made by Rod, up to a, certain time, were not improper. He finally grew more desperate, and finding that she . would not yield to his desires, ho became cross and sullen, and exhibited considerable jealousy if any other men about the place happened to speak to her. If she went from the kitchen up to the yard, he dogged her' footsteps; and even went so far as to go to one of her acquain.; tances, where he made groat pretenti94 of love for her. She did not..return:ink passion; and consequently ho would der her about as though she was a mem serf, and treat her with indignity. ThO report that ho had illicit intercourse with her, is not founded iii fact.
