A NovsL Casr:.—A case,‘ say_s the Danbury
Times, came before J ustice' Stone’, last Wednes-
which. was something ‘new tinder the sun; Mr.
Francis Fairchild brought an action ofbook debt
'-_f $5, against a Mr. Hunt, of Ridgeliury, for
magnetic information concerning prop‘eft_v which
-had been stolen from him. As we tiu‘dersta_nd
it’, Mr. Hunt agreed to p'ay$5 for the detection
of the thief. This was accomplished a la widg-
’nett'cal process. but Mr. Hunt refused payment
on the ground that "the tn'a"nfie‘r in which the
' ‘money was taken‘ was incorrectly stated. The
’ trial resulted in favor of magnetism.

lnterestedin whatever is of pu blic utility, I would
citll your attention to the existence in our village
‘of what appears to have escaped your observai
tion, to wit—a society christened with the - im-
posingname of "Independent order of Anti-To-

The glorious results of such an organization,
ailtl its important connection with the interests
of this land of stciidy habits, cannot for one mo-
ment be contradicted, neither does it require an
extra exercise of the imagination to foresee its
._future extension and greatness.

A FREE-TRADER IN A Fiir.—‘Southerner,’ the
correspondentof the Richmond VVliig, in a letter
front Lowell, relates the following incident:
A singular coincidence took place here,
in which I bore a part. It is a little too
good to lose. On my arrival here I found
a gentleman from South Carolina, who had
made the place a visit to see the factories.
I soon made myself known to him, and he,
mysclfand a friend frotn Virginia made a
visit to some of the Mills. He was deadly
opposed to the Manufacturing System-—
went Free l‘rade all hollow. We had talk
after talk until I got him pretty well rotind.
At this state of the case we went into it
certain mill where he beheld a very beau-
tiful girl. He had no sooner laid his eyes
on her than he began to think that the Ta-
riff and factories were not so bad after all,
and l‘.-efore the night closed he wasa straight
out Tariff-Whig, and heels over head in
love. He is now engaged to the. young la-
dy, and will be married in it fear days, and
when I left him he was firing off salutes
with it couple of pistols near the mills in
honor of the or-c'asi’on. He is going to
take his betrothed to Euro;'e, and when he
comes back intends to go into manufactur-
ing. It is the greatest adventure I was ev-
er engaged in in my life. 'lhis is the third
Lowell female operative who is married to
wealthy young men of ‘South 'Carolino.——
Four of them are married to native Georgi-
ans. There are some fifteen or twenty in
other Southern States in the same fix.-
