Outtonatt.—Monday evening last, as Mrs. .smith,
the landlady of the Golden Key public house, in Teoter-
ttreet, Moorhead*, was sitting in her bar, her attention
was attracted by the violent crying and screaming of a
child In the street. She went to the door, bat could
perceive nothing. The noise, however, stili.conanning
she procured a light, and on going to the spot from
whence the screatns.proceeded, discovered near the back
cellar door a female infant shoot three months old, near-
ly naked, wrapped up in an old flannel peticoat. Being
herself a mother, with a child at that time at hie breast,
she suckled 'the little foundling, and retained it for the
night, and in the morning delivered it to the parish offi,
hts at the workhouse. On the Tuesday morning, while
the officers were makingevery endeavour to get some clue
to the inhuman parent, they learnt that a female bad
