sengers.
The difficulty between the French and the
Sandwich Islands has been adjusted.
Two old negro women, belonging to Mr.
James F. Watson of this District, were commit
ted to jail last Wednesday night, to await the
execution of their sentence for an attempt to burn
Mr. Watson's dwelling The fire was applied by
two small girls, at the instigation of the women;
and the intention was evidently a most diaboli
cal one—being in the day time, when all the
family were absent, except Mrs. Watson, who
was sick in bed. The torch was applied so as to
fire the only room through which Mrs. Watson
could make her escape. Fortunately, however,
she discovered it in time, and was able to extin
guish it. The girls were whipped, and the
women are to be hanged on the 13th of next
month.— Abbeville Banner , 31 st nit.
