TnE New York Herald relates an incident
which occurred in that city, few days ago,
in which woman's curiosity was for once
satisfied:
There resided at No. 81 Thompson street a
California widow, whose appearance led strict
ly virtuous lady in the neighborhood to think
that she had recently given birth to child
Such a state of things could not be permitted
to exist without an investigation, and according
ly this indignantly lady volunteered to
enter the widows apartments and make search
of the premises. On confronting the widow
and questioning in regard to the matter, the
latter denied the soft impeachment, and gave her
interlocutor to understand that she had discov-
cred n mares nest. But indignant virtue was
not to be ba1hed so easily. She suspected that
the widows bed contained something unusual,
and darted forward to make an examination.
10 her joy, she found little child reposing
under the sheets, and in triumph she bore the
infant down Stairs, and forthwith proceeded to
the police court An officer was at once deS-
patched to arrest the widow. Upon inquiry,
the policeman learned that the widow had
packed up her traps and had taken her depar-
ture for parts unknown. The result of the off.
GERS mission was communicated to Mrs. NEEDLE,
whose chagrin at having had the baby left upon
her hands was source of much amusement to
all who were in the secret. Justice Brennan
expressed himself sorry that the complainant
should have fallen into such trap, but advised
her to take care of the infant Fearing that she
would be made the laughing stock of the COM
munity if she adopted the child, she at first
refused, but subsequently consented to become
the future guardian of the little innocent.
