At an early hour Tuesday morn>
ing the lifeless- body of new .born
infant WIS discovered floating in a
little neck of water out a short dis
tancc from the main body of Pearl
river. The body was entirely des-
titute of clothing and its general
appearance jnstifics the belief TINT
it had been in the water fol only
AN hour or two when discovered
There were no marks of violence
visible, and the prevailing opinion
among those who saw the dead in
FAINT, WAS that its death had resul>
ted from srrangu!ation in the Wa
ter. The skin was clear and white,
and there is but little doubt that
the murdered babe is the child OF
white parents. A Coroner's jury
failed for want of any clue to the
perpetrators of the unnatural crime
TO make any developments. Let a
thorough investigation be made and
the guilty brought to justice. AT
present the entire affair is shroud-
ed in mystery. Clarion.
