A CHILD. A man from American
Flat had a hearing in Justice Wright's
Court, in this town. IN n charge of an
attempt to commit a rape on the per-
son of 4 little girl five years of age.
The physicians were not positive rs to
whether the child had been tempered
with or not. as there were other causes
that might produce the Inflammation
they found. and the prisoner was dis
charged, there not being sufficient evil
dence to convict him. The man arrest
cd for the rape had previously had tho
father of the child and another man
arrested for putting a head on him on
account of the story Of the child in
regard to his conduct toward her.
The father and his assistant in the job
were both discharged, and so the mat
ter ended.
