KIDNAPPING A YOUNG EMIeRANT GIRL.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
SRA week ago 1t was proposed to give you the
particulars of the kidnapping from Castle Garden
of young emigrant girl, but 1t was withheld at the
instance of persons interested in the case, who be-
ieved that its publication would interfere with the
action OF the police, who had the matter in hand
Now, however, that an imperfect explanation of
the circumstances has been given to one Of the
evening papers, the necessity Of silence is re-
moved. The facts are as follows:-
On the 18th OF May lady named Ahearn who
then resided at the corner OF Eleventh avenue and
Forty-ninth street, and has since removed to the
corner Of Twenty-ffth street and Third avenue,
hired girl named Catherine McGuirk, thirteen
terestng~to mind young children The girl had
recently arrived with her father and mother and
six other children, all Of whom were then at Castle
band is in the Fire Department, kept the girl
for two days .,, and, +, as she states, left
the building at the Castle Garden-and notified
Mrs Moody, the Matron, that she returned her. Mrs.
did not see the girl, and being engaged with som e
four tnn or e other at g. the time t9Ss
woman Ahearn did not produce the girl to Mrs.
Moody, but says that when she went into the de-
partment the young girl ran towards the place
where she had parted from her father and family
who, in the meantime, owing to their poverty, had
been transferred to Wards Island, and since then
she has not been seen or heard Of
The mother has come several times to this city
from Woodbridge, n j., where her husband is EN-
poyed, and has travelled the streets like maniac,
seeking for her child, but without avail.
There has been negligence somewhere in this
business, and give you the particulars In the hope
that some clew to the whereabouts of this innO-
cent child may be obtained, or at least that steps
be taken to investigate the facts. This is only one
ofmany cases that occur by which numbers Of inno-
cent emgrant girls are destroyed and the founda-
ton laid OF those crimes which are so common
among us.
There Is scarcely any evil OF which we complain
reformation u Oi,
the virtue of females depends the welfare OF the
entire community. II is admitted that emigration Is
necessary and a principal means to the pOpulating
OF the country We cannot have q virtuous people
unless we have chaste and well conducted mothers.
How can we have them or well regulated people
unless the virtue OF female emigrants is protected
and the most stringent measures for their preser-
walton are opened? Time will not permit me to
suggest remedy in this hurried communication.
Will only express my regret that Irishmen in
general and Irish Catholics in particular, so in
different to the well-being Of their own kith and
kin as 10 have overlooked this question and failed to
apply remedy. am, sir, your obedent servant,

TO the Readers Of the Times.

1t will be seen, from notice in nnotli-
er column, that the co partnership here
tofore existing between Mr.. Beard and
myself has been dissolved by mutual, con-
sent. The result of this Arrangement is
to release me from all liability Of any in
debtedness of the firm. Though the dis
solution was made at my instance, / feel
constrained to say that it was not from
any lack of prosperity OH the part of our
joint undertaking; inasmuch as we have
added full 30 per cent. to the capital
invcstc'l That is, the TIMES is worth
fully that much more than it was when
we started: though passing through the
dullcst part Of the year, for any business
enterprise. l have thus retired from :.n
established and prospering undertaking.
on the eve of increasing prosperity sim
ply and entirely from reasons of II pri-
vatc nature which constrain me to the
belief that VIC do not suit each other as
partners in business. l first offered to
buy /; but he having moved his other pa
per and Office material from Columbia
for the purpose of aiding the enterprise
did not desire to sell, and therefore
dissolved the partnership and sold to him.

July 9th, 1872. =
DEAR TIMES: We are now at New
London, the oldest town in Eastern Con.
necticut; pleasantly situated on the west
bank Of the river Thames. On the 9Th
September, 1881, this town was burned
during the Revolutionary war, by Bene-
dict Arnold, and tall granite monument
on the opposite banks ofthe Thames com,
memorates that event, and the fearful
massacre at Fort Griswold, the same day.
The weather has been exceedingly. hot.
the thsrmsmoter ranging from to Or
s. A lisriiblc outrage was perpetrated,
few days ago, at Montvalc, village not
far from New London. A Miss I.aPiere,
a lady of respectability, aged about II
years, while passing a dense thicket Of
woods or her way to the school-housc
where she WAS accustomed to teach, was
accostcd by II rulfian negro, who by vio-
lc,ce attempted to overcome and execute
his hellish designs upon her. Feled to
the earth by Il severe blow from the fist
of this ruffian, she gave an agonized
scream, which attracted the attention of
a traveller who was riding by. Upon the
approach of the rescuer, the demon took
flight and escaped amidst the thcket and
dense covert Of the woods.
The neighborhood in which this diabol-
ical deed was committed is populated by
the descendants of Mohegan indians, and
in whose employ were the services of Miss
LaPiere, as teacher. Upon hearing of the
outrage, u large body ofthe Mohegans as
,semhlcd and Immediately instituted search
in hope of arresting the cnlprit and bring
ing him to speedy justice; but SO dense
and obscure were the woods that all search
proved in vain. Sentines were then
placed at all the different stations in and
around New London,' and as soon as night
came, this man OF wicked designs was seen
attempting to get on the train going to
New York. He was arrested, and is now
in the hands of the law. awaiting q Just
retribution. H tr.
