been better if the meaning of the law had
been ascertained before the blanks were
printed j but the mistaVes in preparing
those documents have now been fully cor

A' Singular. Superstition
A Maryland paper Bays : "There lives'
in Dorchester county, a family every
dark-eyed male member of wbicb, - for
the "past fifty years, has cone blind -at lbe
age of from twenty to twenty-five! years.
Those with blue eyes escape the terrible
affliction.- There; m a tradition. abour
this singular circumstance which , we lay
before our readers as we heard it.- ..
Some sixty years since--so the story
goes tf beautiful blcrek-eyed girl of twen -ty,
from some cause or other, lost: her
eyesight. Her misfortune brought pen
ury and want with it. . Being reduced to
beggary, she was want to go abroad ask
ine alms. During one of her journevs
she visited tbe neighborhood: in whicb
resided the ancestors of those who are
now. sightless. . Instead of , her help
less condition exciting, as it should have
done, a, fecIogof sympathy, she 'was
treated with ridicule ty ' some 1 of sh
younger members of the bouse; thst her
evil star bad led her into: .Two of the
boys, as a matter of mere deviltry; took
ner out, -promising to conduct hereto a
place where plenty awaited. Instead of
giving her a safe conduct, they' cned
her to a swamp and left her. 'It isiid
thai she. erieok. pat beaeeehing theme to
put her ou the public road, hot 'they
needed ,not her lamentations, r Finding
herself about to be deserted . among tbo
tsngied brushwood, she turned her prayer
to a enrsoy asking her JUaker,' in ror
yeBgtfful aaojer, to panifih her .betrayers,
by making their oGspring for seven gen
erations, as helpless as . she was. ' It, is
said; that she was found dead in, the
swamp, Iiavrog perished from hunger s'nd
cold. ? 'Abut.- may.: appear semewhati ro
mantic, but whether tbe traditionary part
of it be false or true, it is assuredly m
fact that the male offspring of the family
referred to, lose their sight as indicated.
Hundreds of persons in Dorchester coun
ty, Maryland, will vcrrify the fact."
