:MAR Liloll9lsGli - STREET. --- Two respectaM7
drened ehild;:en, a girl and a boy, or the. ages of
ten and eight years, were produced before-the
Magistrates, they having; been left by their mo-
ther, the wife .of a. country. inn-keeper; at the , Old
White 'Horse Ce lar, without nrotextioq. It ap:-
peared by the statement of the children, that their
father kept the Crown lon at Plymouth, and that he
had 'accompanied them with their mother to the
coach ,Which arrived' at the Old. White Horse Cella
on Wednesday afternoon, Th e mother' sent the chil-
dren to Duke-street, in the neigh bourho:ql, to seek;
the house of an anut, and after a fruitless .earch
they' returned, when the mother had iled, and no
tidings-whatever had been had oilier. The situation
of the poor children excited the compassion of the
inn-keeper, who took them under his fostering Care.
Whilst the story was being related, the mother was
brought up from St. Gile.s's watch-house, charged
with having been disorderly in the streets at
midnight, and this was the tirSt tidings of her.
She had 111. when she left the inn, . which was re-
duced to 41. and she had lost her bonnet, pelisse,
was evident the unfortunate woman la-
boured under• strong mental derangement; and
this' was further corroborated by passengers in the
coach. To questions put; she gave such ausWers
as an insane person would do, and her looks were
altogether wild and desponding. Mr. BAKER, the
Magistrate, reconithended her to the humanity of
the Parish OM cqs 'of . St. GileS's, until her hus-
band should be info:lned of,the affair, and the
Proprietor of the -cotfee-house, at the Old White
Horse Cellar, took the children under his' protec-
tion.
