The SEDUCTION CASE IN SoUTHBRIDGE.
The circumstances attending the death of the
unfortunate girl in Globe Village, to whom we
referred a day or two ago, were not in all re-
spects correctly reported. 1t seems that for
the last year or two she had been known for
her incorrect habits. Recently, as the crisis
of her situation was approaching, her cousin
went to Webster where she was staying, to
restore her to her friends. Arriving at the
public house in Southbridge late at night, he
left her there and went away. The keeper of
the house writes to us that, at her own re-
quest, he caused her to be removed to her
aunt's, and being unable to gain admittance
there, on account of the lateness of the hour,
thence to the public house in Globe Village,
and that his treatment of her from the be-
ginning was humane and charitable Before
her death she confessed that the father of her
child was a travelling daguerrean artist, well
known in many of the country towns. Her
sutferings appear to have been only such as
her false steps involved her in, and afford re-
newed evidence of the solemn truth that the
way of the transgressor is hard.
