ham, who was bitten some four weeks since,
by mad dog, exhibited on Thursday even.
ing last the first symptoms of disease. She
complained of her throat, and soon after be-
gan to dread the sight of water, shuddering
whenever it was put before her, or even spo-
ken of. During the progress of the disease.
she would frequently complain of hunger and
thirst, but when offered food or drink, it
would distress her greatly, and she would
turn away shivering, and hide her face
Commissions became very frequent and severe,
snd the child seemed 20 suffer intense agony,
complaining of her throat, ear, and head, and
losing her consciousness while they lasted.
During the absence of the paroxysms, she
possessed the use of all her faculties in re-
markable degree, her sense of hearing partc.
ularly being very acute. An attempt was
made to administer ether, but it affected her
SO violently that it had to be discontinued.
DIR. Whitney, her physician, succeeded on
Saturday in giving the child some morphine,
repeating the doses frequently and keeping
her under Its influence, as it appeared to nit
igate the severity Of the spasms, which grad.
ually lessened until death relieve her from
misery on Sunday afternoon.
The chIld's face had been much lacerated
by the dog, having been bitten in four or five
places, tearing down the side of her mouth,
and all the wounds but this last had entirely
healed, before any signs of sickness appeared.

A QUEER WoMAN.-THe Queen Of the
RiUer Pirates" The Cleveland Plaiadealer
tells this story:
FIhe notorious Maria Keys alias Faulkner
was arrested Saturday, on a charge of stealing
800 worth of extra gin from the warehouse
OF Mix Morris, few months since. She
was ordered to give bail i'll the sum of $500.
which she promptly did. This Maria Keyes
is the Queen of a gang of about 20 dock pi-
rates. Her hovel on the West side, near the
Old Exchange, is their rendezvous. There
the dock pirates secrete their 'swag, there
Maria gives orders, plans thieving expeditions,
and is Queen. frequently, the police tell
us, she heads the banditti in person, dressing
herself in mems clothes. She has an exten.
slve wardrobe, and cafi appear in any charac-
ter that she deems necessary for the successful
contamination of her plans. She has been
known to rig herself up in the character of
sailor, canal boatman, asverdant young man
from the country, an old gray haired and
decrepit man, sc.
All alone she has cracked many ware
house along the docks in the night. She is,
in short, regular Jack Sheppard, and would
make splendid heroine for the Aims worth's
novels. The gin which she and her gang
stole from Mix 6 Morris, was taken to her
den On the West Side, and sold in small
quantities to various parties. The casks, as
fast as they became empty, were filled with
stones and sunk in the river. Marshall Gal
lagher suspected this, and on Saturday, be-
fore arresting the female leader of the dock
banditti, he and his aids went on dragging
expedition with a tug. They soon found
where the casks were. A good diver was on
hand, and he went down and attached cord
to one of them. 1t was pulled up and found
to have the mark of Mix & Morris upon it, as
did several other casks which they pulled up.
The Marshal then proceeded to the howell
of the woman Keys He and his assistants
smelt gin as they entered the door yard, and
they soon learned that the woman, seeing
their approach, had spilled cask. The cask
was found, after some search, and it had the
mark of Mix & Morris upon it. The career of
an extensive and thoroughly organized band
OF river pirates is about closed"
