[rre« (he Norfolk Day Book.] hL’ A Gay Deceiver. , The elder Weller once admonished his son Samuel to “beware of widdeie," and added the opinion that one widder was equal to five end twenty single gals, in the pint of coining it over you. This mey be true in Her Britanic Majesty’s dominions, where gullible gentlemen are supposed to be numerous, bnt in this great (?) and glorious (?) and hnp py (?) and free country, without mean ing to disparage the smartness of our American widows, we have numerous sharp thorns in pifurcated integumeuts, who would give Sam. Weller’s smartest widow the odds of a pawn aud two moves and then beat her out afterwards. An instance of this has lately come to light, which proves this assertion, and proves to what extent a widow can tbe deceived. On one of the streets ofthis city resided e widow whom, for prudential reasons, we will call Mrs. V. The lady was left a widow about three years ago ; an ounce of lead had penetrated Mr. V’s lungs, and bis few remaining days were passed in a hospital. Mrs. V. uever saw him after the evacuation of this city, and was a widow some mouths before she knew it. Except the house she lived in, some jewelry, and a lot of com fortable furniture, there was little of the world's goods left to her, but apart from the fact that she had to struggle for food and reinvent lor herself and little ones she was quite comfortable. Mrs. V. was lonely, and determined to relieve that loneliness aud increase her income by taking one or two bonrders. Accord ingly she let it be known that for a reasonable compensation she would pro vide snug quarters tor one or two single gentlemen who were willing to exchange references. In due time ft very respectable look ing individual ot about five and forty, who was soberly dressed, and who rep resented himself as a quiet bachelor in quest oi a quiet home convenient to his business, presented himself, and being a stranger could not give city relerence, but could give any required reference in New York. Mrs. V. was well pleased •with his appearance, deportment and conversation, and concluded to take him in, this nice, quiet bachelor, and ac cordingly so informed him. Some little bargaining was then made us to the price of board, she charged him just fifty cents per week more than he want ed to pay. remarking that as a strictly jnst man he always drove a close bar gain, and always stuck to it. Mrs. V. unwilling to lose so quiet and gentlemanly a boarder, finally consent ed to the reduction; he' was duly in stalled in a snug room, the best carpet, the best bed, and a comfortable arm chair being prominent features therein. He surveyed his domicil, aud expressed himself delighted, and delivhted Mrs. V. by handing over two weeks bourd in in advance. He gave his nhme as Turpin, talked much of his business, and led the lonely widow to believe that he was a man of considerable means and of great business qualifications. His plausible manners and smooth tongue soon won for him the friendship and esteem of not only the lonely widow, but of all her friends, who had called aud cultivated the acquaintance of the quiet bachelor, bnt thorough business man. In a short while he began to speak of Mrs. V. to her friends and on one or two occasions volunteered the opinion that “ she was devilish good looking.” This, of course, reached Mrs. V.’s ears, as it was intended, and there is little doubt but the lonely widow began to think, though she didn’t say it, that Mr. T. was a devilish nice man. By and by he began to talk to Mrs. V. about her lonely situation. Next, he got to laying his right paw on his left breast, and then he would raise his eyes ceiling wards, and “sigh like a furnace,” which meant “ love” as plain as the lan guage conld speak it. To shorten the story, Mr. T. proposed, the widow ac cepted, and the wedding was to have taken place last Wednesday a week ago. Luring the courtship he. paid several visits to his New Y’ork house, and always came back deiighted with the large busiuess that was being done there. Every arrangement was made (or the wedding, the company was invited, and things were progressing finely ; a house keeper was engaged to take care ot things at home white the happy couple went off on their bridal tour, and every body was delighted. Wednesday morn ing came and everything was bustle ; Airs. V. was busy, one or two of her intimate friends were busy, and things progressing finely. The subject of cake and such “fixius” was undertaken, by Mr. TANARUS., ‘‘just, to help,” and during the day he called Mrs. V. one side, and remarked that as she might ieel some little delicacy in allowing him to pay for the confections, she cbuld give him thirty dollars to pay for them, and to morrow you can pay yourself hack from our pocket book. Mrs. V. handed over the thirty dol lars, Mr. Turpin said he would proceed at once to pay the bill and order the things up. He returned about dinner time, and remarked that the articles would airive at 4P. M. “Oh I there is another matter to be attended to,’’ said he ; “your watch and chain, and indeed your jewelry generally, is a little tarn ished, and Freeman can rub them up in half an hour, and make them look like new.” Happy thought! and the widow vyas delighted to think what a thoughtful, accommodating man her second husband was. She placed, her watch aud trinkets in bis hands, and he started off to have them rubbed up; but that was the last seen or hesrd of him, or the thirty dollars, or the watch and trinkets. Tbe guest* came in the evening, but there was no confections to give them, there was no groom and no wedding : but tbe poor deluded and swindled widow was there with but seventy-five cents in her pocket to buy bread for her self and little ones. The mean, sneak ing, contemptible sinner stripped his victim of money and effects to the tune ot S2OO besides owing six weeks’ board, which Mrs. V. did not like to call on him for under the circumstances. Tony Weller would have .had no occasion to caution Sam against such “widders:" but it Sam had been a widow it would have been prudence to caution her against aged gay deceivers with two or that nobody kuowt anything ■inT 1 *I rDey “J 8 lhe new “ reconstruc non scheme comes too late.” i AUGUSTA, GA., FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 22, 1867.

STILL TRIUMPHANT ! \ ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL by innumerable living witnesses, has proved itself to be THE MEDICINE OF TIIE AGE. Although there have been many med;ci nnl preparations brought before the public since the first introduction of Perry Davis’ Vegetable Tain Killer, and large amuuuts expended in their introduction, the Pain Killer has continued steadily to advance in the estimation of the world as the best family medicine ever introduced. As an internal and external remedy, it is truly a source of Joy to the World! One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and upon its own merits, as the proprietors have not resorted to advertising to gain for it the rank it now holds among the great number of preparations of the present time. The eflect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Coughs, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dys entery, and other affections of the system, has been *ruly wonderful, and has won for it a name among medicinal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pains, as an external remedy, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Stings of insects, and other causes of suffering, baa secured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will be banded down to posterity as one of the greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. The magical ef fects of tbe Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. You have only to be sure that you buy the genuine article and adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medicinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis* Pain Killer is now put up in panel bottles, with the words Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the glass ; aud with two steel engraved labels on each bottle—one an excellent likeness 01 Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note of hand. None others can bo relied upon as genuine. f*rices of bottles 12£ cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively. Valuable Medicine —We presume no medical preparation ever offered to the pub lio has beeu more thoroughly tested than PERRY DAVIS' PAIN KILLER. Thou sands of persons, were they called upon to do so, would cheeriully testify that they have used it for various ills, with the most satisfactory success. It is within our own knowledge that an immense amount of suf fering has been relieved by it. Its pro prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis & Son, save no pains or expense in order to satisfy the public. Being strictly honorable men, they observe tbe utmost uniformity in the man ufacture of their celebrated Phin Killer. Tbo materials of which it is composed afro carefully selected—none but the best quality being used. By these means the high repu tation which the Pain Killer has long since acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus tained. In view of these facts, we are by no means surprised to learn that. Messrs. Davis A Son's sales are constantly and rapidly increasing.. While we congratulate our friends generally that so valuable a preparation as the Pain Killer is placed within their reach, we most be permitted to rejoice at the well-merited success of its liberal aud enterprising proprietor.—Provi dence General Advertiser.
