The Washington Star, of Thursday, says:
Last night, the private Waterman at Will

on T street. at the rear of the hotel 1t was
covered with Saturdays Chronicle, which, be-
ing removed a pretty little boy child about
four days old was discovered The little fell
low was live and kicking, and had with him
wardrobe that probably cost over thirty
dollars, and bottle filled with fresh milk
He was comfortably clad, as if for short
stay in the streets during the inclemency of
the night. His head was covered with a
pretty red hood adding to the beauty of his
diminutive features. The little waif was TAX
en- to Superintendent Richard at the police
headquarters, who sent it to the ladies at st.
AIMS Infant Asylum, who said they seldom
received one so finely attired Upon examin-
ing the basket a card was found, upon which
was written, in a hurried style, but hand
that indicated practised penmanship "This
child is of poor but honest parents, and would
not be parted with were it possible for them
to raise it. Its name is Frank Leroy Pal
merston. E. P"
An extraordinary sight is presented every
evening at the Roman Catholic Cathedral in
Washington street. That large church is lite
rally packed with men, who occupy not only
all the seats, but the aisles, wherever they can
find standing room, to listen to the preaching
of Father Samarous. The church is also
crowded with men at the five o'clock mass in
the morning, and with mixed congregation
at nine o'clock The hall of the institute, in
New street. is filled to suffocation by the fe-
male portion of the parish in the evening
when sermons are preached by Father Da-
men, Both these Jesuit missionaries, we un-
derstand, are natives of Holland, and have
been laboring for many years in this country
with great success.-Ne'Oark (Neso Jersey
