acted In the detectives oAce, police head
quarters, which will TO far to prove the doctrine
OF total depraylty, and witch was calculated 70
shake the faith Of any mortal 10 the long
accepted theory Of nlial devotion. II will he re-
membered that some time since a girl, aged
about nineteen years, was arrested by the police
oricers, at the Instance Of her mother, in house
Of prostitution and taken TO police headquarters,
where, after talk with her alleged seducer, the
party were married. 20 far 70 good, but it seems
that the new state Of life DID not suit the miss,
and, leaving her husband, she took up her abode
In q house Of ill-fnme on Thirteenth street,
where she has been about two weeks. Hearing
Of this, the mother determined to make fiual
effort for her salvation, and, as she was Of age
and married, concluded that the best course to
pursue was to have her arrested on the charge
Of larceny, tshe took some clothes when she left
home,) and then try and persuade her TO 70 the
Home OF the Good Shepherd, In Baltimore. The
warrant was placed In the hands Of Detectiyt
McDevltt, served by him about four O'Clock, the
young lady taken 10 police headquarters, and
her mother sent for. Shortly after the mother
appeared, and the Interview between them u
stated to have been most affectlnR-the mothcI
sobbing Historically, begging her daughter Il
forsake the path she had entered and make al
effort to lead 4 vlrtuous life, and the daughte
obdurately declining, and declaring that he
mind was fully made up on the subject, and tina
she wonld remain where she was that befor
she would enter the Baltimore Asylum she woult
kill herself. While this interview was belnI
held some OF the "friendsr Of the girl were busy
ing themselves with procuring ball, and at abou
O'Clock they appeared at the once with a
order for her release. When Informed that ah
was at liberty TO 90 she arose from the seat an
started out, but turned quickly when the mothe
shyieked "My Godi are you going to leave m
