Of sixteen went to Toulouse. His first
visit was, OF course, TO a brothel. | say
of course, for it Is so notorious that
criminals, after the commission of
crime, resort TO these places, that 4
grave crime is no sooner reported to the
police here than all these bOuses are

Toulouse brothel was so much surprised
to see so Young a man in possession of
a large amount of money that she told
him he could not have come honestly
by it. He for some time sustained the
contrary but she was so earnest in her
exhort tions to repentance and to re-
store the stolen property before all OF
it WAS wasted that he at last confessed
the truth. She rhen persuaded him to
go to some good clergyman, repeat his
ontessiou and ask advice. Ia order
that his good resolutions might not
cool, she went with him to the parsou-
age and remained at the door until he
had made his communication. The lad

lowed, and proved that be could take

Horrible MaItreatment Of Pauper
Child.
From the Xenia Torchlight, May so.

| From the Xenia Torchli light, May 81.
A few days since our citizens were
Mortified By a sickening account OF
cruelties that had been practiced upon
| a little girl, formerly an inmate of our
Infirmary, who had been taken by a
| family residing in the northwestern
part of this county to bring up.
On Monday last we visited the In
Urinary, in order to hear from Major
Barnes, the Warden of the Institution,
The facts of the case so far as he knew
them. The child, Mary White by name
is the daughter of one of the inmates
of the Infirmary, and is now nearly
eleven years of age. Nearly three years
since, when she was eight years old, a
man by the name of David Emmick,
who lives near Fairfield, applied at the
luirmary fnr child to raise, and she
was given to him. No tidings of her
welfare were received during this time
until last Wednesday, when a wagon
drove up and pitiable, wan and dis
figured child was taken out and lief,
with the matron of the institution, with
the message that that they could
keep her any longer and had brought
her hack" Judge of the horror of the
mother, who is sill an inmate of the
lnfrmary, on recognizing this pitiable
object as her child
The child, upon examination,
showed unmistakable evidences OF ii
long-coutiuued and systematic course
of ill usage. Her form, instead of pre-
senting the rounded outlines of child
hood, is dwarfed and srunred. Her
hands, hardened by incessant labor,
look almost like claws. Her limbs
are black with bruises from repearei
beatings. Her neck is discolored with
the marks of IL rope, by which she has
been hanged and atterward dragged
over the floor. Her ankles are laceraIed
and swollen by a cord with which She
has been tied and as it is alleged, hung
head downward for punishment.
SO much for her appearance. Her
story, which is given with apparent
ruthfuness, reveals the fact that dur
ing all these three years she has been |
ieuiIshly mal5reared. She has been
starved and overworked
As a punishment for real or fancied
)tfenses, she has been cruelty beaten,
lung by the feet head downward, hung
" the neck ana almost strangled, and
'fter being taken down. and while the
ope was still around her neck, jerked
0 the floor, and while down dragged
lpon the floor around the room. She
vas on one occasion bound with a rope
nj suspended in a privy vanlt until
early dead. These and other fendish
trocities her story reveals and Der APP
earance indicates.
That such feDds as this man Emmick
I'd his wife should live in an enlight-
ned community and their practices for +
0 long time remain unknown, is n
ource of wonder to US. Now that they +
re known, we hope a speedy aud I'M ,
inching justice awaits them.

CHURCH DISCIPLINE SUSTAINED. - In

virtually decided last Monday. The
Court said - This is novel action

d;smissing plaintiff from membership
IN a church, whereby he alleges, be
LOST the grace OF God and the Kingdom

hat il is not case Of SANDER. but an
action fo- false conviction. In Ecclesi
ssticai Courts the same rules obtained

a church subjects him elf to tie rules
o. the church, and Il judgment rendered
by its Courts is rs binding On the party
as judgment at law The demurrer
to the complaint was sustained-S. T.
B.i2etss, 9.t us.
Te Judge from the description Of this
act;on thai it was brought 20 recover
money damages for being deprived of
" grace" aud chance in Heaven. Now,
if this n,sn had had a ticket of exemp-
ton fsos. the pains OF He'll and DR.. Cox
had taken it away from him, there
might, possibly, have been cause for

not refer to those of his wife, where
