SaI Case. .The pathwayof . life abounds alike with flowers and thom. Life is a variegated mixture of pain and pleasure, of joys and of sorrows. In a neighboring county there has just occurred auuther deplora ble illustration of tiie truth of the well known lines t-f ihv jn.H:tf - that:. "Whn IoyuIjt -,'oinan stoops to f.lr, Ami iinds too lat that men betray What charms can soothe her laelunciio'v; What a t can wipe her guilt away?" A ft-w months ao a young woman of fine apiearante, and evidently well-raised, got ..fi the train at a dep(4 near this city. She siuglit-;t-Tfm!cyHjei"it as a domestic and obtained jh,-;?:?. Ileiv s'orv Ua intelligently told, an.l secured the favora ble consideration f f the family which took the stranger in. Time j)assed on and she gave satisfaction. It was evident that she was cncicnlc, and the bad ready a plausible explanation, for all. The time fur her confinement approached. It was found necessary that new quarters should be ob tained for this critical event. None of tbe neighbors were w illing to take her on that condition, especially as she was a pocr girl. A i'h) sitiau near by was sent for in this emergency, ;is she was -already sick with-pneumonia., lie went and adminis tered to her necessities day after day. During this 1 ime appeal afu r appeal was madctohiin by the girl and the family, to take the patient to his own premises during her confinement, as she had not elsewhere to lay her head. It was a call of mercy and charity that the true physi cian always heeds. He took her to his home, but not until he had searched the bottom facts of the woman', lr story. In that desire to conceal her shame, which generous men forgive, she had until then misled the family as to her history and the true cause ot her condition, fche told the physician that she belonged in another neighboring couuty, and was the daughter of respectable paients, whose names were given. It was found also that she had clandestinely leic home, that none ot her relatives know of her where abouts, and that,uuder promise of marriage, sha was the victim of the seductive appe tijps and criminal passions of man. She gave the name of her seducer. Her state ment was uit name old tale or seduction, desertion, child-birth. The pneumonia continued, causing premature labor, and both combiaed were too much for her pow ers of endurance. iShe died under these vigorous assaults upon her mind, body and heart, and was kindly buried by the physi cian who had taken her in and used all his skill to save her. A living child is the fruit of this sorrowful case. This too re mains in the hands of the same physician, and awaits-the requisition of the nearest blood relatives, whose names1 are known. There are other interesting facts and cir cumstances connected with this painful affair, but we have already said enotigb. The father has bjen written to. He is, probably, a gentleman of high standing in his native county, and will, . perhaps, marry altei 'a whi:e,become a pillar of the church, lead a virtuous (.!) life, rear a family of active bojs and lovely girls, and may even, peihaps, represent his cjunty in the Legis lature, while the poor girl whom he ruined and hetiaed sleeps in a disgrace I grave. A Cotton Thief Caught. A colored fellow by the name of Henry Hail was captured last night rbout 10 o'clock, bT Capt. DucDan, of the British Barque North Carolina, and turned over to the police. The barque was lying out in the stream opposite the city, and Hall was caught on board of her by Capt. Buchan, and so were six bags which were just sufficient to hold a quantity of loose cot ton that was on board the vessel. The fellow was seized and Capt. Ifuchan sent for a policeman, whereupon Hall took ad vantage "f a favorable opportunity and sprang overboard and swam for the shore. A boat put out from the ship and he was Overhauled and taken on board again and afterwards deliveied into custody of a policeman. -The care was called this morning before the Mayor and partially heard, but a full investigation was post poned' until to-mcrrow. The , peculiar phases of the affair are as follows: About two weeks since a bile of cotton was cutj open and some of tho staple stolen. Suspicion attached itself to tho cook and he was discharged, and Capt. Buchan thinks that, he and Hall were confede rates. There is also a white boy ou board who is probably concerned in the affair. He shipped at Demarara and Capt. Buchan promised his mother that he would return him to her in safety. Hence, instead of preferring charges against him, Capt. B. has - sWcn him a sound thrashing and has promised the Mayor that he shall not put his foot ashore, while the vessel remains in port. Per contra, Hall says that he is innocent and that ho can prove thai the white boy came to him yesterday and told him that the cook wanted to see him and that was hU business aboard the ship last night at half-past 10 o'clock.
