treated an scljonrnment, as she courted the fullest
irquiry.

It hiwing bsea arrang?d that the whole matter should
be kept in abeyance until yesterday, at a little before the
closing of the court applient again appeared, as did also
Mr. Bisbop, with a string of witnessea.
Mr. ARNOLD, advtxting to two letters he had received
from applicant, the one soliciting him very politely to
pay a cabman who had driven her about all day 00 Sa-
turday, and the other int4nuting that she left any money
received at tho office on her account to ba disposed of as
he thought fit, observed that the question simply was
whether she was a deserving person, and asked whether
she wished to have this inquiry carried any further?
Applicint said she would rather not for the sake of
her family.

Mr. ARNOLD thought that was the very reason that,
with her assertions of innocence and propriety, ho should,
and wEnt on with the case.

Mr. Bishop obaervEd that the distress of the poor
children was true, and they had been starving about
the streets. In compaczion for them, and knowing that
her husband had left her, ho had given them as much as
10/, but, finding she was a most worthless person, be
had considered it his duty to come forward and protect
the benevolent by showing her trim character.
Mrs. Large, with whom she had lodged, pro►ed that
a soldier and a young man visit ~d applicant (who °co-
bionfdly get drunk) for improper purposes. Applicant
told her she had been living wi'h a gentleman at Putney.
She went away with the man Gibbons, spoken of; for
fortnight.

Eliza Layers said, applicant lived in her house about
Christmas last. She represented herself as a private
soldier's wife, and a private soldier of the Life Uttar&
cohabited with her as her husband. She distributed ber
favours among several other men.
Other persons were in attendence, poor people,
whom she had defrauded, and another of whom spoke
of her liaisons.
Applicant at first endeavoured to prejudice the wit-
nesses against her by declaring they were not respect-
able themselves, but at last hung down her head, and
appeared to feel that it v; is useless to attempt to carry
the imposture any further. She neithsr produced the
certificate of her alleged first marriage, nor offered the
denial she had promised of the charges against her, and
it will quite clear that she had speculated with a friend,
to Mrs. Robins (a governess, who has been a recipient
of mue't bnenty from the public herself, and who very
improperly endeavoured by letters to the magistrates 10
prop up her assumed respectability), upon receiving 0
large sum in the way of donations from the benevolernt•
Mr. ARNOLD, after thanking Mr. Bishop, in the nate°
of the public for the great service he had rendered it,
regretted very much that he could only come to one
conclusion, and that we., that the applicant had bees
leeding a most absudoned and profligate life, and
altogether a person most undeserving of public sycel)°-
thy. He had received some sums from benevolent per..
sons, not one farthing of which he could for a moment
think of giving her; but it was a matter of consideration
with him, although the amount at that moment yin°
inadtquate for anything like the purpose, whether they
might not be applied to rescue the two poor children
from the contamination of their mother. Where they
had given mules and addresses he would write to the
donors, and he should feel indebted by the press ex-,
pressing his views, and acknowledging the receipt et
other donations by initials, &c. Hs had no power to
take the children from her, but if she consented WI
night by some means be provided for; and, if to be
rescued from infamy and vies, he had no doubt sufficient
means would be added to what be had already received
on their behalf.

The woman solicited the evening to determine wile'
ther her children should Fie niened from pollution.
