mains being identified yesterday by JAS Farmer,

The coroner after endeayoring to investigate

cars passed over the breast and stomach. which
would indicate that the deceased had laid down

is apt to affect women more than men,
and which is so mysterious in character

Der the ndrse had just put the baby to

the nurse came out Of the chamber she
said TO her mistress:
''The little thing is asleep for three
hours, mann, I'll warrant"
The nurse went down stairs, and for
about a minute the mother sewed on.
Suddenly desire seized her to 60 and
take the sleeping child from its crib.
"What nonsensew she said - herself.
"Baby is sound asleep. Nurse just put
her down, ] shall not CO."
Instantly, however, some power stron-

to 60 to her baby; and after a moment,
she rose, half vexed with herself, and
went to her chamber. The baby was
asleep in her little bed, safely tucked in
with soft white and pink blankets. One
small hand was thrown above the little
brown head. 1t was half open, the ex-
quisite fingers slightly curved, and the
palm as rosy as the depths of a lovely
shell.

of thick gray dust, she saw that the cell

"Are you acquainted with the habits

man of b-ight-looking darkey, one of
the crew of an oyster smack, lying at
Dock Street Wharf, Yesterday. .-. '.0
"Doan know wat yer means by habits,
boss. De oyster am berry quiet. He
doan say nothin'. White man kin kill
an eat i'm raw, an oyster never kick"
The sad searcher after truth shudder-
ed at the idea, but perserveringly asked.
'Does the oyster lie quiet when yeu
pursue him, or does he conceal himself,
or take refuge ir flight?" s'ie'
The emotions of the darkey oysterman
were almost too much for him, but he
managed to gasp out: ii i51''
"Great Ceser, bossl oysters hadn't got
