ABOUT THE KIDNAPPED 1NFANT.-Mr.
Dicbv almost daily receives letters from
various portions of the country, mostly
from the country parishes of this State, in
forming him that somebody has seen a child
answering to the description given of his.
Most of them are unsatisfactory in detail
and not explicit in information, although, If
accepted on their face, would result in the
instant recovery of the stolen babe. At the
present time the police hold points direct
ing them in as many directions, and each
one seems to contain sufficient clue to
work on.

sobriety and good order. They. were all
fined. S --
John Benny was arrested on affidavit OF
Mary Ann Davis, charging him with insult
and abuse. The evidence showed that the
accused had made no demonstrations Of VIC
lence, but had stood off ut long shot,. and
assailed the object Of his wrath with Ian
guage of the tilthiest and foulest descrip-
ton. His honor said that it was an offense
of no light description to make use OF such
expressions in the public streets, as had been
proven against the prisoner. 1t was an
offense against society, to shock the ears OF
respectable women and demOralize young
children by words that would hardly be
tolerable in the lowest bagnio. He there
fore fined the prisoner five dollars with the
alternative of ten days in the Parish Prison.
Mary Jane Watson's case was similar to
the above. She had found by experience
that the law does not admit offensive Ian
cunge as justification for violence; and
she therefore concluded that offensive words
were, as she said, free of the law" Mary
Jane is very quarrelsome, and merely be
cause she could, she assailed Victoria SIM til
with language of the foulest kind, trus ting
in her superior osseous and muscular avon
dupois. His honor remarked, as IN the
other case, that he should apply the law to
the utmost extent; that the tendency to OBJ
scene quarrelling might be checked among
those who, having no sense OF decency
themselves. do not respect decency in
others. A whole neighborhood might be
made morally uninhabitable ON account
of the foul propensities of an individual
Tie accused was assisted in the business by
her daughter, whom she was thus running,
instead of training to virtue. She was fined
ten dollars, OF, in default, ten days in the
parish prison. The fine was paid.
