A RAILROAD FoUSDLING.-The George Law
brought home on Friday, from Aspinwall, a
very extraordinary passenger, about fifteen
months old-found amid the wreck and ruins
created by the late railroad calamity there
Father and mother, and relatives, were all
killed, and no one knows the little foundling's
name, or nation, which, however, is supposed
to be French. The innocent was picked up
unhurt amid the slain and manned, in uncon-
scious ignorance of the awful disaster. Col
Totten sent it to New York, in care Of the
stewardess of the George Law.
