While the winters are not only not half severe but

A few days since young lady of respecta-
BILE family in New York, who was attending a
private school on Long Island, was seized with
a violent toothache and went out to purchase
some either for relief. Under its intoxicating
influence, as is supposed, she went on board OF
one of the Sound steamers and was taken to
Stoningtop, thence came by railroad to this city,
and on the return of her proper sense she was
amazed to find herself wandering about the
streets of Chelsea. She Immediately, in great
distress of mind, applied at the house of a hos
pitabe citizen. and after telling her story to the
landlaGy, requested shelter until she could
write to and hear from her father. The worthy
lady, confding in the artless Innocence of her
youth-shs being but about fifteen years Of
age-ready granted her request and for the
nounce adopted her as one of the family.
This morning the poor girl was overjoyed at
receiving message from home, stating that
her father was on the way to meet her. The
case came to the knowledge of the police
through reward offered for her recovery, but
which no officer will claim. tits a gratifying
fact, to the credit Of civilisation, that young
lady of much personal beauty could take so
long journey entirely without protection, and
under such very peculiarly remarkable circum-
stances, without the slightest harm Detailing
her. #ia Boston Transcript.
