charge OF infanticide, and brought her to this
place. where she is now confined in jail. She
was taken to the Poor's House on Thursday

after her arrival at the poors house, it was
discovered that she had already been delivered,

a thing associating themselves in their last
hours with such trash as rebels. But you will
please let us know why we are required to regis
ter again, and why we are offered better terms of
amnesty. &C. The approaching storm, which, if
it ever comes, will be because the United States
cannot back down from any offence they have
committed, and not from the fact that they can't
swallow insult or injury. Since we are out in the
