The last Mountain Wing contains notice OF
a most diabolical outrage committed in Wythe-
willie, by a scoundrel called John Right, who is
thought to be vending his way in this direction.
We hope that our Citizens will be on the alert
that, should he make his appearance here, ne may
be entertained among as as he deserves. =, ~. !.


We annex the statement from the Mountain

JOHN, alias JACK RIeHT. This fellow, after
lurking about our village for several weeks, left
on Tuesday evening, taking with him the untor+
tunate and degraded victim of his seduction


He came from Knoxville, Tennessee, where
he has a young wife now living, and suffering
the unspeakable pangs< of his remorseless and in
human conduct. He spent the summer at the
Grayson Snlphhf Springs. 1t is understood that
he is professional gambler and bi6ekleg.hs3


The poor Vand infatuated young gir, whom
this destroyer has thus made theIdhps OF his mis-
cradle bribes, and arti6ces and fahless promises,
is Margaret E. Curry, the daughter of Thos. Ou-
ry, of this village, and about Is or l6 years of
age We have understood they are making their,
way towards; Lynchburg or Richmond, and will
probably change their course and pass through
Franklin county and the State OF, North Carolina
to the South. They represent they were married
in this place. statement which is utterly false.
They. are travelling a two horse barouche,
with a cover to it, driven by likely amulato
man.


Thus, whilst this, unpripcipled, unfeeling and
depraved wretch is laceratng the heart of an
innocent and acon6ding wife, and 5'robing her
home which he had pledged himself on the mar
rage altar to render yirtuous and happy, i1
wretchedness sorrow and disgrace, he is conduct
ing young, credulous and unconscious girl from
her parents roof, TO linger oW "a living death in
the charnei houses of prostitutionl -.s y,s T.; ~


Thus has he invaded with pestilencen the do
mestic hearth, and torn from her sacred dotnicH
the favorite daughter of defenceless and discon-
solate mother. = By this atrocty he has filled her
house with desolation, and stamped everlasting
infamy on her family, by the inefable ruin of her
daughter, We know Of no character so vile, so
detestable, He is the vilest Of robbers, for he
plumbers happiness; the worst of murderers, for
he murders innocence his appetites are of the
BRUTE his arts of the demon the heart of the
child and the curse of the parent are the founda-
tions of the altar which he rears to a lust whose
fires are the fires of hell and whose incense is the
agony of virtue. L@'aa. .; -~: 30 57.s.5'3


We have made this painful exposure, from a
sense Of duty, not only to the public press, but to
the community, whose virtuous sentiments have
been outraged by the commission of this crime.
The citizens had no knowledge OF it until it had
transpired. But they do not intend that such infa
nous conduct snail escape their severest censure,
and they desire thai the perpetrator shall be held
up to the public gaze, in the lurd glareof his de-
testable vice, ~.., '-' q a.' .'' ~s


Let this be warning to all moi to admit into
their society, or to countenance strolling yaga-
bond, who exhibits no passports, except that of a
professional blackleg and debauchee. . ,,i.Iy-~


We wish the papers of Lynchburg, Richmond,
Dlnvile, and everywhere else in Virginia, N.
Carolina and Tennessee, to insert This notice in
their columns. -..---'-.@ =. ~ .--'.'~9
