FIJI and attractive, their unprotected and torlorn
condition excites universal sympathy, but their
unfortunate situation has not shielded them from
the attacks of unprincipled sconndrels, in the
shape Of men, who have already commenced

About three o'clock Helen left the house in
order, as we learned, to make arrangements for
removing tile furniture, when u rush was made
by black, white and every color to see her. DE
Daniel d. Smith took Der to the cars and mad
great difficulty in getting her through the crowd
| The next person who left the house was MIS-
Barnes, the sister Of Mrs. Cunningham; she
thought at first to get ont by the back way,
through Blocker street, but being unable, she
had to breast the tornado and go by the front
door. As soon as she made her appearance,
another rush was made, and cries OF there Shc
L. .ticrc she is '.wheres the baby?" mixed
WITH several obscene illusions to the sham ac-
courhmcnt the crowd soon closed i'll around her,
ant, the poor woman became seriously alarmed,
Notwithstanding she hid the protection OF eX-
/ Councilman Wild on the left hand and the rO-
tporter Of ono Of the city Journals on the right,
which causeda wag to cry out there goes
sharp between TIVE fats" piece of humor
which created considerable -meyriment. Some
of the dead Rabbits, or whatever they may
be called got close enough to drag the silk cape
of her shoulders, which was rc-adjusted by the
gentlemen who composed her escort; they saw
her to the cars and the reporter went oft in the
direction of BeeckeT street, while MIR. Wild re- |
turned to the house.
Helen is bearing up bravcy under the afflic- |
ton. She is most attentive to her mother, |
scarcely ever leaving her, and acting witt! the !
most tial affection. She says thatif her moth |
er was the viest of the vile, shc Is still her /
daughter; she loves her, and will not forsAke |
her and any offer of that kind can only be tn
ken as an insult; but she does not believe her |
mother guilty. She thinks her rather the vic /
tim of u conspiracy, rs she is given to under
stand that Catlin was engaged in something |
similar some four years ago, and alleges that du-
ring the examination made of her person on the
inquest, that DIR. Uhl, who assisted in it, did

THE CROWD DISPERSED ny TIE POLICE.
Up to seven o'clock in the evening the crowd |
continued TO increase to such an extent that den
liens of Bond street began to complain serious
IL of the nuisance. The large majority of those |
present were females, and they were loud III their
opportunities for information from every one
seen to come from the house of Mrs. Cunning
ham, as to when she would be removed to the
TombS. They evidently expected that her re-
moyal would take place that evening, and they !
accordingly took their stations on al the stoops
around from which q view of the house No. 81 |

opposite, after fruitlcSs attempts to keep his'i

Ger street, and requested Captain Dilks to send
u force of police to clear the street. He accoT-
dinghy despatched three or four officers, with
instructions to make known to the people that
the object of their curiosity would not be re-
moved that observation-disclosures which soon dis

The police authorities have very prudently
resolved to keep the time of her removal pro-

WHAT COURSE WILL MRS CUNNINGHAM TAEE2
