BRUrALIrr-The woman who has been ar
rested in Fishkill, New York, for shocking cruel
ty to little orphan girl whom she took to bring
up, kept school in that village The child is u
Portuguese by birth, about II years old, very
pretty, and tells straightforward story. One
mode of torturing her way to make her hold u
hot poker in her hand until completely burned
to blister, and after doing 30 to take ruler
and whip it upon the burned parts. Another
mode was to strip the child naked. lay her upon
the Aoor and then draw the heated poker over
different parts of her person, burning her in
frightful manner. At another time the teache:
put gag in the little girls mouth, and made
her keep it there for thirty.onc hours, Of course
without food or drink. A string was attached
to each end of the gag and tied at the back of
the head. The sufferer was asked why she did
not unto tho string, and the answer was that it
was tied in hard knot so firmly that it sank
into the flesh, and she could not unite it. At
another time the woman cut all the hair off the
childs head, and upon the top Of her head is
burn, caused by coming in contact with hot
stove pipe on an occasion of being punished.
The Philadelphia Argus pertinently adds, if
the above atrocities had been perpetrated upon o
darkey st the South, would not the hypocritcal
phianthropist of tho New York Tribune have
barked himself hoarse with his vehement denun-
ciationsY AS the sufferer was only q white girl,
and the cruelty was practiced in Black Repub
lcan community, this oppression hater is as III
lent upon the matter as all Egyptian mummy.
Is it not singular that such yhorn pretendcrs to
benevolence should bo able to e1erciSea particle
of influence over an intelligent community.

New WINE.-At a late chronological meeting
in London Mr.. Wilkins hanled round some
wine, which he said had been manufactured from
his roots Of mangel wurzel, and was but ten
months old. This. says the Chronicle, /" for a
light wine, was certainly very excellent, an'l Mr..
Wilkins declared could be retailcd at GIL. per
quart bottle. 4 practical chemist from London
stated his opinion that all that il wanted was an
as,ringent, which Mr.. Wilkins said he had dis.
covered in the hop root, and which would render
it wholesome beverage. We also tasted bread
made of one.thrd Of mangcl wurzel and two
thirds flour, and which was certainly fully equal
to the average quality"
