' j A LW of Bor IrJiUBa Mo la Aeovooei of tPUallaar KIckelaroQi a A yoong colored 'girl, apparently abbat 13 or 18 yean of age, named. Rebecca Clar iday, wat arretted yesterday on the charge o; C,rd a number of pockets within the last two weeks. Among the losers from the depre dations of this precocious young female we may mention Isabella Goelet, who was robbed at St. Stephen's church on the night of Thursday, the 1st of May, of a sum of money amounting to f 18, which was tied up ia the corner of handkerchief. fl5 pf which was In gold and ' the remainder in. small silver change. On the night of Sunday, the 4th instant. Lane Ialer was robbed at St. Stephen's church of her pocket-book, containing $10 in $1 gold pieces; and on the first named evening Mary Outlaw had a brand new pocket book, containing $1, stolen from ber. Ail of these robberies, it is alleged, have beea traced to Rebecca Clariday, and there is at least one more of which we have not now the particulars, to say nothing of the accu sation that she actually stole two five-cent nickles from the eyes of a dead child. A warrant had been issued for the girl, and yesterday morning, while In pursuit of some other object. Officers Strode and Eagles suddenly discovered the girl on Nutt street, near Walnut, and, after a abort chase, succeeded in capturing her, when she was carried before Justice Millis and required to giro bond in the sum of $100 for her appearance before him at some futuie day, failing in which she was sent to jail. It will be remembered that some months ago a colored boy, named Jim McNeill, was arrested for stealing a pocket-book from Rebecca Clariday. lie was tried at the late term of the Criminal Court, found guity and sentenced to confinement for three years in the County House of Correc tion. He declared at the time of his ar rest, aod asserted afterwards, that Rebecca Clariday stole the pocket-book from a lady and he was trying to get it away from her. 8ubaequentvents have proven that both the boy and girl are desperate cases for children of their age. We should have stated in the proper place that the girl is also accused of pick ing the pocket of Mrs. Catharine Strick land, at Oakdale Cemetery on Memorial Day.
