TESTING HER INNoCENcE.-The fol-
lowing touching scene recently oc-
Cured in Partisan court of justice:
A poor, pale, wan seamstress, was
arraigned for theft. She appeared at
the bar, with baby of eleven or
twelve months in her arms, her child.
She went to get some work one day,
and stole three gold coins of 10f. each.
The money was missed soon after she
left her employer, and a servant was
sent to her rooms to claim it. The
servant found her about to quit her
rooms, with the three gold coins in
her hand. She said to the servant:
"I was going to carry them back to
YOU" Nevertheless, she was carried
to the commissioner of police, and
he ordered her to be sent before the
police court for trial. She was too
poor to engage lawyer, and, when
asked by the Judge what she had to
say for herself, she answered: "The
day went to my employers, car
ried my child with me. It was in my
arms, as it is now. I was not paying
attention to it. There were several
gold coins on the mantle-piece, and,
unknown to me, it stretched out its
little hand, and seized three pieces,
which I did not observe until I got
home. I at once put on my bonnet,
and was going back to my employer
to return them when was arrested.
This is the solemn truth, as I hope
for heavens mercy"
The court could not believe this
story. They upbraided the mother
for her impudence in endeavoring to
palm off such manifest lie for the
truth. They besought her for her
own sake to retract so absurd tale,
for it could have no effect, but oblige
the court to sentence her to o much
severer punishment than they were
disposed to infict upon one so young
and evidently STEPPED so deep in
poverty. These appeals had no
effect, except to strengthen the poor
mothers pertinacious adherence to
her original story. AS this frmness
was sustained by that look of inno-
cence which the most adroit criminal
can never counterfeit, the court were
at some loss to discover what decision
justice commanded. To relieve their
embarrassment, one of the judges
proposed to renew the scene described
by the mother. Three gold coins
were placed on the clerks table. The
mother was requested to assume the
position in which she said she stood
at her employers house. There was
then breathless pause in the court.
The baby soon discovered the bright
coin, eyed it for moment, smiled,
and then stretched forth its tiny
hand and clutched them in its fingers
with miser's eagerness. The mother
was acquitted.

The undersigned, Citizens and Corporators

OF the purport and object of the Bill reported
IN the Senate of the United States, entitled "a
bill in addition to the several acts for establish

ment which from the creation of this District
mad been accorded to its people; it subjects us
10 the rule Of men utter strangers to our habits
ieeings and interests: it reduces N to the worst
condition of any people having the badge of
freedom; 1t makes no adequate provision for
the disposition of the property owned by this
corporation, or for the payment of its debts,
and subjects us to the spasmodic legislation Of
congress, upon which it devolves the detail of
municipal provisions, except when it com.
mits those details to the discretion of the exec.
utive officers who shall be placed over rs from
time TO time, without our consent and against
our will.
For these and many other gave causes we
most earnestly protest against the passage of
the act, and beg that Congress will pause and
consider well before il reduces ms to a CON.
dition so degrading to people born under the
flag OF free country.
