,- GAMBLING IN HOGS. Cards, dice, and the rolette table are not the only species of gambling resorted to for the purpose of skinning the people out of their money. It is often done by means not a whit more honorable than either of the above modes, and the prepetrators pocket their ill-gotten gains and are regarded as "fortunate dealers in produce'.1'- . We .have recently been made acquainted with facts which warrant the above language. The course pursued is' as follows: The pork-packing houses in Cincinnati enter into . combination to induce country drovers to i drive their hogs to that market with the ex- ' pectalion of realizing high prices. To consumaie their purpose, they put into circulation the most exaggerated statements as to .. the prices paid in that city for hogs. - In fact for a few of the first droves, they pay much ' higher1 than the real value, so as the; better ' to carry out their schemes. When the attendon of the whole country becomes direc- - ted towards that point, and the country dealers in hogs are on their way with droves, - the prices are immediately brought down to ..such rates as to compell them to pack in the Lope of saving themselves. One instance which occurred last year has been brought to our knowledge. An individual, who, on the receipt of a letter from one of these friendly advisers stating that the market had opened at a rate mentioned, bought a thousand hogs in accordance with such advise, and was consequently entirely ru'ned. This is only one instance among hundreds of others which then occured. . The managers of this game have already commenced "dealing shuffling and stocking'" the cards. We understand that circulars have been issued, by them, directed to country dealers throughout our State; urging them to bring on their hogs to that city, as the market has opened at very high prices. We caution our friends, not to be deceived by these circulars: Should the very men, who have given this information, be asked to enter into engagements at the rates which they name, they would reply, 'bring on your hogs, and if you flon't get this price, I will pack for you P This is the olject in getting your hogs to that .city. . We do not pretend to say what the price of Pork may be, and only wish to warn the public against relying upoasuch information as that to which we have alluded. : The Convent Cell. On a bleak and gloomy morning in the month of march, 1827, two travellers walked up the aisle of the church of St. , in one of the chief towns of the Netherlands. They were evidently straugers, not only to the place which they gazed at with curiosity, but to the manners and feelings of the congregdtion, for they were observed to walk carelessly past the Bonitier, without dipping their fingers in the blessed water; nor did they bend their knees ns thoy crossed before the nllar. , Still there was nothing of indifference in their manner; nothing, in thort, which any liberal-minded devotee might not have excused in the bearing of two heretics, unaccustomed to Roman Catholic rites, and acting from impulses of inexperience and youth. For they were both young, under fivo-and.twenty; and thoy had that reckless and independent air which mark? the citizens of a free country. They were, in fact, Americans, who, with a full fund of health, money, and ardor for variety, had just arrived ia Europe, and wero starting on their journey in quest of knowledge and adventures. - They had landed a day or two before at Ostend, from London, and this was their first visit to a Roman Catholic country. One of the strangers, who was a quaker, viewed the religious ceremonies without any other emotion thn that of a painter or novelist, as if scanning the groups for the effect which they would oroduce portray ed on the canvass, or in description; while the other, of a more sanguine temperarr.ont, felt a deeper, moral interest in the scene. . - . , He was, however, after a short time, roused to a more minute and personal train of thought, by observing, that one of the nuns, who had mostp re tent ions to beauty, fixed her looks upon him with an uncommon intenseness, and in a manner si remarkable, as. to causo him at length considerable embarrassment. . There was something in the expression of her countenance and in the determined scrutiny of her gazo, that made him almost shudder. She was handsome, certainly. Her features were regain r and marked; but she was pale to 6alIowneg?, and her dark eyes had a restlessness of rtiotion, that seemed caused by an unquiet mind. He then felt his cheeks gioiv, add he gave to his cheeks the tenderest expression of which they were capable. He saw' an answering flush rise on the pallid brow of the nun; and a smile, that thrilled through him, but not wi'.h unmoved delight, played for an instant on her colourless lips. Her eyes then sank down, and her face resumed its calm and sculptured look. The service was at length conc!uded;tho priests had retired from the deserted altar, and one by one the congregation left the church. Aroused by his less excitable friend, the enamored.young gentleman also arose to retire. . They were on the point of quilting their places and rrtiriug from the almost deserted church; the friend of the young lover, for so we must call him, had turned round and made a few steps in the direction ot the door, and the lover himself was about to follow, when his parting look at the nun was answered by an imploring glance from her quick raised eyes, and a momentary, but intelligible motion .with her linger, that he should remain. . - Determined, of course, to comply with this invitation, be found means to rid himself of bis friend, and following the fair nun down a back stair, entered with her a . narrow recess, lighted by a single lamp, before a - shrine contained in which, she again resumed her kneeling position. The lover took a position at a few yards distant from the object tf his gaze, and leaning

against a pillar, awaited her communication. . With her head low bent, and inclined towards him, while she turned over her beads, with much apparent devotion, she asked him in a deep whisper, 'Do you understand French?' " Yes,' murmured he. J Do you speak it.! 'Not sufficiently to express your influence on me. ' ; This was answered by her wonted smile 'Good " Heaven, is it satisfaction or triumph?' thought the American. If you can see in rae any thing to interest you,' continued she, 'are you inclined to do me a favour?' ; 'Am l!1 replied he, with energy 'try me put me to the proof!' 'It is no trifle,' said she, solemnly. 'Any thing is trifling that can enable me to serve you; for any thing short of death command me!' ; . . - 'And if death did cross your path in the adventure? exclaimed she, with a full expression of voice, and a piercing solemnity of look. By Heavens! I'd even spurn that,' cried he; 'you havo exalted me to a pitch of excitement. 1 know not how or wherefore." 'I am satisfied with you,' resumed she 'I believe you to be a man of honor; and that your fine person and striking face cannot be allied to an ignoble soul; I feel myself safe in your hands. You perceive that the rules of my order are not the strictest! but their discovered infringement is ruin;

and lam now infringing thorn. I can speak to you no more at present I havo run a fearful risk. But meet me outside that little portal to night at m nine. I will admit you punctually as the clock strikes. You must not.speak: but trust to mc, follow me, and count on my gratitude.' At the hour of nine the young American, followed by. his anxious frijnd, rushes to the convent. The lover gains admittance, and shortly after is seen returning, bearing out a figure wrapped in his cloak, which, from its form and dimensions, is judged to be a human being. The alarm and anxiety of the friend, heightened by this occurrence, is aroused, and he follows at a distance and in silence. After a little time, in which they traversei several by streets, they reached one of those canals with which the town abounded, and the lover unhesitatingly descended one of the flights of steps, which facilitate the landing of goods from the barges, and the embarkation of persons employed. 'Heavens!' exclaimed the watchful friend to himself, 'can he be wild enough to bear her off at night in soma open boat, God knows where! Whore or how will this adventu.e end?' - Ha placed himself close to the quay wall and looked over the parapet. He saw his friend on the steps; there was no boat of any kind stitioned near or in sight; yet the lover continued to descend! 'What can this mean? what frantia feat can be. destined to conclude this affair ?' muttered the careful guardian, as he watched with intense interest; and as he watched, he observed the object of his care to disencumber himself of his burden; a figure in black emerged from beneath the cloak, and a heavy plunge in the stagnant water was the signal of its disappearance. The perpetrator of this appalling deed immediately ascended the stops. The shocked witness felt the blood curdling through his veins. His eyes seemed doubly fixed on his retreating friend and on the rippled surface of the water where the body sank. Tho safety of his friend kept him mute; for to call for assistance was to reveal the murderer! Leaving the place, he quickly gained upon his companion, who. In his astonishment, took the direct road to tha hotel. They arrived there at the same momont, and they recognized each other without exchanging a word. A simultaneous pres sure of the hand was their only salutation and the friend shuddored to feel, that the ..one clasped, was cold. and clammy. Tho door opened to their summons, and they mounted together to their chamber. The explanation given by the young American to his friend, is full of that source of interest which lovers of the Ratcliffo school of romances delight in namely the horrible. The nun, by whose appear ance lie had been captivated, had received some untold injury or slight from a young priest, and assassinated mm in her cell It was tor the purpose ot conveying awav the murdered " body, that she invited the traveller to this . fearful interview. Maddened by her beauty and the draught of wine which she induced him to swollow ha consented to become tho ngent of her dark purpose. But to avoid the possibility of her crime being delected, she had mixed poison in the cup, and the unfortunate stranger, at once her agent and hor victim, scarcely finishes his narration, bofore the drug takes effect, and he expires in great torture. His fellow traveller lays before tho officers of the police a state, ment of the whole transaction, but a bigoted respect for the roligious association, stifles the decrees of justice, and induces them, without making any investigation to suffer the mysterious and dreadful circumstauce to pass into oblivion. CORONER'S Notice Notice is given that an Inquest was held on the body of a man, lound dead at lower moutli of the Bayou in Union Township on the 22d ult.
