A SAD TALE OF SEDUcTIoN, DEsERTIoS, CRrxa
TT AND DEATH. Some months ago, Il may be
remembered that young babe was found upon
the door step Of one of the most princcly ma
sions on the avenues, and, there being no clue 4,
its name or parentage, that the child was taken
to the Orphan Asylum, and cared for.
A few days since, this baby, which had not
enioyed good health since its admission ut the
ASYLUM, died and its body was prepared for
burial. Before il was buried, however. q y0nng
and handsome woman arrived at the Asylum, and
demanded to see the body Of the dead infant.
She was led into the room where II was laid
out for burial the coffin was opened and she
advanced to look upon the body As she saw
its face, she uttered an exclamation expressive
of the deepest anguish and remorse, and then for
moment eagerly examined the body, a. II seek.
ing for some peculiar mark of Identification APP.
parently satisfied as to her recognition of the
remains, she sank upon q chair and gave away to
torrents Of tears.
When, in some measure, she had regained her
composure, she related the following facts In
explanation Of her conduct. She was the mother
of the child that lay dead in its little coffin before
them. A few months ago she was pure vrtu
Gus and happy girl, blessed with friends and sur
rounded with every comfort She formed the
acquaintance Of man who is very well known
in this city, and whose name some little time ago
become infamous on account OF his connection
with the negro kidnapping case, to save himself
from the consequences OF which act he was
obliged to fec to st. Louis. Mr.. Charles Noyes
for it is of him We speak, introduced to this
young girl admired her, fattered her, promised
to marry her, and, as she saws, under that prom
| Use, scduced her. The connection between them
continued and he persisted in hispromises to marry
her, as soon ascertain circumstances would place
| il in his power to do So She became mother
under these circumstances, and Noyes by some
means, managed to keep her quiet by renewing
his promises. A short time after the child was
born, Moves, as she states, visited her, and after
| conversing with her for some time about their
| approaching wedding, etc, took the infant and
left the room with it, as she supposed for a few
| moments only.
| He presently rcturned-but without the infant
| He assured the mother that he had safely dis
posed Of it, and that, at some future time she
would have it restored to herr but that at present
she must make up her mind to do without it
Her tears and prayers would not induce him to
reveal the disposition he had made Of the child
and soon after this the affair occurred which rem
| dered it necessary for Noyes to leave Chicago.
BY some means or other, which yet remain tc
be explained, the unhappy woman received intel
ligence of the disposition which had been made
OF her child just in time to see its lifelcss body
ere it was committed to its nameless and dishon
| orcd grave.
We understand that Mr.. Noyes, and the Other
two policemen who left Chicago with him, have
! been obliged to leave st. Louis in disgrace, ant
| are now in New York city.
