Can be more precious than your love;

And tate is tirm," when IN its might

That come to me;
Flowers, music, sunshine bright;
And singing birds, bring loves delight

RE ARREsTED.-Orr report Of the
escape Of Mary Tucker from the Hos
pital, WAS correct so far as it went, but
after boarding the steamer. to take
her departure for down Sound. she was
arrested. and takon to the Occidental
Hotel. where she was kept in custody
till yesterday, when preliminary OK
animation was held before Justice
Scott; Irving Ballard, Esq, Prosecuting
Attorney, appearing for the Territory,
and w. IL. White for tho defendant.
A number Of witnesses were examined.
and the facts as heretofore published
by us. were brought out. Taking into
consideration that the woman now has
her child in custody, and appears very
much attached to it. aud that she 10 .
poor. ignorant, defenseless woman,
everyone manifested u sympathy for
her, and it WINS greatly regretted that
she had not succeeded in making her
escape. Her bonds were fixed at two
hundred dollars. in the hope that she
might be able to find some one to 60
on them for her. and thus evade the
necessity of locking her up in Jail.
She has so far, however, not succeeded
in giving the necessary security for her
appearance. and is confined with her
babe in Jail, in tho same apartment
with a sauaw, there being no other
vacant rooms or cells in the Jail. 1t is
stated that letters have been written to
the father Of the child, giving these
facts. and if he possesses spark Of
humanity in his composition, he will
give the necessary bond aud sec that
the mother and child are out of harm's
way before the convention Of court.
Under the circumstances it would be
very hard to convict the woman before
Amy. and granting that she was con-
victed, her sentence would undoubtedly
be light, and King county be at least
athoasand dollars deeper in debt a.
result of it.
