THE CAP-MAKER OF NANTEs-A young
girl "of considerable personal attractions"
who. exhausted and GREATNESS, with pallid
cheek and fearful eye, totters up TO her moth
er's cottage with beautiful baby in her arms,
and exclaimS, "Behold, mother, / have been
guilty, but visit not my offence upon the head
of this sweet innocent, iaints away as she lays
the baby on her mothers knee. The mother,
an excellent woman, loves the baby at once for
the daughters sake, and, although poor to the
last degree, accepts this new charge without a
murmur, in order to save her child from dis
grace and shame. The beautiful cap maker
comes to see it, and lavishes all a mothers
fondness on the child and this curious comedy
lasts for several months; when one fine day
come gendarmes to the cottage to claim the
child, which had been stolen from its parents
by the girl, and searched for in vain through
out the town of Nantes, with offers of large re-
wards for the recovery. The girl could give
no other reason for the indulgence of this sin
gular within, but 'that the desire to have lit
tie girl, and to enjoy the blessings of materni-
ty," had taken such deep possession of her
soul that she had sought the first opportunity
of its qualification. The reason astonished the
jury on her trial, but did not satisfy them, so
the beautiful cap-maker was condemned to
two years mprisonment.-LettertT from Paris.
