An incident of a somewhat romantic natlire
has been brought to light Here in the course of the past
week, but as it is still involved in a certain degree of mys-
tery, we shall, in relating the circumstances, refrain from
mentioning the names of the parties. About seven years
ago, a person in this city was delivered of an illegitimate.
to this no trace has been had of
child, which, some time after its birth, seas put out to
however, that she is supposed to
nurse, and the mother procaeedeehtlii(tio
soon afterwards, took her departure for Scarborough, tak_

short time the nurse left Scarborough, and trent to Lon-
don,he
r and
Abfio•uotm
took the poor innocent to their home, adopted it ns their
own, and in memory of the place where it was found,
it the name of FANNY II gave th , 00/IFIXLDS. The circum-
stance became
e subject of various paragraphs in the
newspapers; and the mother, of whom we have already
spoken, who had left her offspring in Carlisle, and lost
all trace of it after the nurse leaving Scarborough, con-
ceiving the foundling to be her child, proceeded to Dul-
wich, claimedtook
; and it as her own. In a short time
the mother and child returned to this city, where they
have been for some time settled. The ladies of Dulwich,
who had
taken the infant under their protection, and con-
ceived a strong affection for it, appear not to be satisfied
with the correctness of the mother's claim, for they last
week wrote to a person in this city requesting an inquiry
to be instituted into the subject. In consequence of this,
the woman and child were taken before a Magistrate ; and
with such apparent earnestness and affection did the woman
maintain her claim to the child, that, added to a striking
resemblance between them, the Magistrate was about to
decide in her favour, when it was discovered that there
was a difference of two years between the period of the
woman being delivered of a child, and the age according
to the statement of the ladies of Dulwich, of the infant
she now claims as her offspring. Ilere, for the present,
the matter rests, until farther information be obtained ;
and probably the mystery will remain unsolved until the
I nurse of the child barn here be discovered,—Car;;,/e
