A SAD CASE. Policeman Bennett,of the
market, yesterday afternoon, brought before
Justice Gushing, in the police Court, young
woman who has been wandering about the
city for the last three weeks,and whose con-
duct has been so singular as to attract the at
tention, of almost every one who passed her
in the street. She is apparently ten or fif-
teen years of age, decently dressed and wears
about her an air Of responsibility and strik-
ing modesty Of dcmcauor. She has formerly
lived with family in Salem, and there, as
she says received the addresses of a young
man belonging to this city but who few
weeks since deserted her. This, it appears
prcycd upon her to the extent that her mind
became unsettled, and she came here in search
of her laithes5 lover, Being destitute Of
friends or acquaintance, 9nd intent only
upon the object of her visit she wander
ed about the city for some days search
ing for him, until finally attracting the no.
tice of Mr. Bennett, to whom she told he
story, that humane officer persuaded her TO
return to Salemto the family she had lett,and
furnished her with the means Of doing so.-
Not long afterwards, however, she re-appear-
ed in this city, and took up her station at the
corner of Clinton and Fulton streets, where
she would stand in one position for hours to-
rether, intently gazing at the stores in Full
ton streets and talking all the while to her
self. The deep sorrow written upon the
woman's countenance, and the utter desola-
ton betrayed by her looks made her an OBJ
iect of sympathy, and generally protected
her from insult. Mr. Bennett again spoke to
her, and she told him she had found the store
where her loyerkcpt, and pointed down Full
tan street, yet refused to accompany him tc
seek an interview She said her heart was
broken and she had no desire to live, and talk
ed so seriously of taking her own life, that
Mr. b. was induced to apply to the court tc
have her taken care Of After hearing the
case, his Honor deemed the young woman a
fit object for the insarc asylum, and she was
accordingly committed to that institution
