4 FOUNDLING-Several days ago We
spoke of a male infant found on a doorstep
near the corner of Claiborne and st. Peter
streets. About the fifth instant. Il man.
who is supposed to be TIE father, had taken
.he infant to have it christened, for the poor
thing had been born before its time, that is,
the parents were married only ten months,
while the babe was nearly eighteen months
old. Having no particular love Tor the
little thing, he, ia his drunkenness, laid it
down where it was found, most likely in
tending to desert it. The wite's mother
heard of the fact and recovered the chlid
from the kind people who had taken care
of il She obtained it. and stated that the
parents had left the city.
