AN OUTRAGE-On Thursday, between
five and six o'clock in the afternoon, an
outrage was perpetrated which is somewhat
unusual because OF the youth of the per.
petrators of the crime. A little girl not
more than six years of age was enticed into
a vacant lot on Poydras, between Rampant
aud Basin streets, by two boys, the Oldest
of whom could only count fourteen years.
They violated and otherwise abused the
poor little thing and then let her 60. The
police knew nothing of the matter until the
mother of the girl, Mrs. Christian, made an
affidavit of the injury to her daughter
Caroline. The two boys are probably now
both under arrest One of them, the younger,
only thirteen years old, John Blanke, was
arrested Yesterday afternoon.

BRIEF MENTIoN.-The frequent attempts
at breaking into and rObbing grocery stores
would indicate that starvation, and not
tle desire of gain, is the impelling motive
Some wretch attempted to turn in false
alarm of fire from box No. l42, but on being
chased by the patrolman, incontinently
fed. The creatures who attempt the little
practical joke of sending in false alarm
of fire belong to that class of animated
nature from which Darwin evolved his
celebrated theory.
Those railway intersections on Magazine
street, at the corner of st. Joseph street,
and on jackson street, serve the double
purpose of keeping all hands awake and
lively during the trip, and of reminding
them of their duty to suffer and be patient.
On Thursday William Fitzgerald. a oon-
fdence man, went aboard the steamer
Frank Pargoud and attempted to steal a
carpet bag-at least 90 reads the charge.
