A singular instance of female depravity has recently been; brought to the notice of tne police. or tne last 18 months a girl named Mary Ann Galway has been in the employ of Mr. Baum, in Eighth st.t above Arcb,-of . Mr. John Kiehl, in Arch St., be tween Seventh and Eighth, and during the last four weeks in the dry goods establish ment of Mr. Geo. Fryer, in Chesnut st., besj lowTentb. ' ' ; - - ; 1 r ": During these ' eighteen months, Mary Ann seems to have had very costly clo thing for herself, and to have made nume rous presents to her dressmakers and ac quaintances. On entering the store of Mr. Fryer, she presented his child with a beau tiful handkerchief, the value of which is estimated at $45. Mr. Fryer naturally in quired how she came by such a costly ar ticle She said that her mother held a very "responsible and lucrative situation in the Girard House, in this city, and her aunt the same 'kind of a situation in' the St. ; JNicholas Hotel, New York, and that one of them had given her tho handkerchief. As she was a poor girt, she said, she did not like to keep such a handkerchief. This explanation was received as satisfactory at the time. But on last Saturday night Ma ry Ann was detected in the act of secret ing some fine laces, and the explanation of the affair only -induced Mr. Fryer to have i the young Jady taken into custody. . Since that event, startling developments have been made. v ryi.v;; ; ' ' It appears that during the last eighteen . months, this young lady has been carrying on shoplifting by the wholesale, and with a success almost unparalleled by a female. She has laktn from the various stores in ; which she has been employed, patterns, . silk dresses, merinos, laces, handkerchiefs and other goods, amounting in value to hundreds of dollars, ' Her plan of action was to represent to her companion sales women that the goods had been purchased, and were to be sent for.,. -- The packages were laid aside until boys called and transferred them to the bouses "of acquaintances of the young lady, to whom she bad made . them . presents Goods, amounting in value to from. 9250 to $350, have been recovered by the police, And they except to recover . 8100 worth rmore. She appears to have ' scattered her favors in every direction, giving away that " which did not belong to her with a most royal band. - . . - -.; , But this is not all the story:, :, Mary "Ann exercised her fascinating powers over a mere lad, 17-years of age a clerk in one of our well-known jewelry stores secured his affections, and lastly they were, upon false representations of age to Alderman Thompson, united in marriage. The lad , belongs to, a very respectable family, who cannot but grieve deeply at such a con nection. . .' :',.

The woman took advice, and obtained . assistance from - a prominent '-citizen of Springfield, and finally obtated the check and the letter in its mutilated condition.

His great success ia th ass long standing and . diffi cult cases, such ss were formerly considered incur able, is sufficient to commend him to the public ss worthy of the extensive patronage he has received. Within the last eight years, Dr. S.has treated mere than 29,500 cases of Private Complaints, in their different forms and stages; a practice which no doubt exceeds that of all other physicians now ad vertising Id Baltimore, and nut a single caae ia known where his directions were strictly followed, and medicines taken at reasonable time, without effect ings radical sad permanent cure ; therefore, persona afflicted with disease-of the above nature, 'no matter how difficult or. long standing the caa mayo would do well tki J on Or.

Dr. Smith has discovered a new method by which be can core the worst form of stricture and that without pain or inconvenience to the patient. Irritation of the uretha, or prostrate gtands,or neckof the bladder,is sometimes mistaken Icr strictures by general practitioners or charlatans, - YOUNG MEN and others afflicted with Seminal Debility, wheth er originating from a Certain Destructive Habit, or from any other cause, with train of bodily snd men tal evils which follow, when neglected, shsuld make an early application, thereby avoiding much trouble and Buffering, as well as expense By bis improved method of treatment, Dr. S. can safely guarantee a speedy and perfect cure In all cases ol this com plaint. , '-.- . . - I to females: l All diseases peculiar to Females (ss also Sup pressions, Irregularities, dec.) speedily and effectu ally removed. The efficacy of his remedies, for the cure of theabove affections, have been well tested in an extensive practice for the last twelve years. - Persons st a distance may consult Dr. S.'by a letter, post-paid, describing case, and have medicine securely put up snd forwarded to any part of the United States, always accompanied with full and explicit directions for use. Communications con sidered strictly confidential. Office srranged with separate apartments, so that patients never see any one but the doctor himself.

IN Ibis preparstioa all the restorstlva properties of ths root are concentrated in their utmost strength and efficacy ( but while Sarssparilla Koof forms an important part oi its comotnation, it is, at the same time, compounded with other vegeta ble remedies of great power, and it Is in the pecu liar combination and scien'ifie manner of Ita prep aration, that Its remarkable success in th cure of disease depends. ' It sets simultaneously upon the atomach, the circulations and the bowels; and thus three processes, which are ordinarily the result or three different kinds of r edicine, are carried on at the same time, through the Instrumentality of this one remedial agent which gently stimulates while it disinfects snd expels from the stomach and bowels all that is irritating, and at the same time estores vigor and tone. , Many-other preparations imitate in oca ring the name of Sarsanarilta, and in that their resemblance ends, being often prepar ed from worthless and inert roots, and of course possess no healing or curative properties, and pa tients in making choice of which they will use, should take no other, bat that one entitled to their confidence, from the long list of cures it hss effect' ed on living witnesses, whose testimonials and residence have been published, and -who are atill bearing daily testimony to its worth. -ASTONISHING CURE.

Among the advertisements in on of our yesterda j's papers, jou might have noticed the following : . - "Wanied, a fidttre for a vpr nice 'little girl, with a fad, trhere be would l in- i structed in Tief btoc anflsewfn. She wil! be found perfeCtl useful, as she is an ex cellent little girl and of decent parents. Please call At 375 -street, fourth floor." Those who bate no occasion for the ser vices of such a little gif! neeo not accom pany me to the.' place ir person. Thej- bave but to travel in mind to 375 frost nn,l npjmd inr the four weary flints of stairs, they will find themselves in a . . i i . . room forlorn enougn, out scrupulously neat. Rr f fiimiitirf to be sure, and of every thing in fact that goes ,to mate a comfor' table borne, but even in its desolate condi-' ' ... , . 1 4 tion are the evident mams m a genne nnu . refined mind. . i And by the one dormer window sits the mother, the presiding genius of the meagre aboflft. Pain and wasted to a shadow is she, and clad in the scanty, faded garb, of, poverty; but about her, as about her room,. reigns tnat unimslaKearjie air wntcn speaKs th laslii nnt th hnnvebtional creature of fashionable life, all flounces, feathers aftJ folly, witn a Heart as nonow as ner own empty cologne bottle but the lady-bom, one of nature's gentle-women. - Patiently has she struggled with the lit tle ones left her, the offipring of the stout young laborer who won her true affections, who, after scraping together a comfortable little home, was suddenly struck d6wn by a fatal fever, leaving her to the mercies of a hard world, with four helplesa young things to provide for. Through all has she worked and clothed and fed them as best she might, until the "hard times" of l".st winter and the gradually increasing hard times of the present summer have driven her up into the desolate garret. ; One by one of her pieces of furniture, re lics of her happy home, when the mccban ic-fiUher of her babies was alive, were ob liged to go, and stilPshe could not make any headway against the cruel pressure of no money andno work which bore so bad ly against her. . Two of the lit lie ones, Ka tie and Jimmie, the next to the eldest at. I the next to the youngest, have fallen vic tims to disease consequent upon insufficient diet and impure air. And that they are gone is a comfort (strange comfort) U the lonely widow. And now Isy (ihe "nice little girl" of the advertisement) must go too, not to the grave, but almost as bud to the heart stricken mother out to service. There is no help for it, do ber best, she could not make enough to pay the rent of the room, mean as it is, and buy bread for the little toddling thing of two years, which they still call "the baby," apd bread for Isy and herself. So Isy must go out to ser vice. A richly dressed lady, all satin and jew elry, has mounted lhe Jong stairway, and puffing and panting, sits down jn the only chair of die room, to ask the anxious mot It er a few questions concerning the "nico little girl." The questions are hard and abrupt. The lady objects to her name, Isabel ia not a proper name for a servant girl. "She was nametl when we had plenty around us, and when we did not dream of her having ever to go out to service," re plied the sighing mother. The lady objects to the paleness and thinness of the little girl. She will pick up and grow stout ns soon as she has proper food and enough of it, patiently responds the trembling mother. The lady objects to the age of the little girl. The mother sighs for an answer. But at lengih the lady concludes upon taking her, is unwilling, to pay any fhinjr for the services of so small a girl, although she is willing to hear her read and spell "once in a while," at the same time assur ing the mother that "she shall be kept steady enougti at her needle." . , It will not do. The mother pleads for ever so little a week, and finally concludes that she can.iot part with her Isy unless she can get a few shillings a week for ber services. ; -. . The stout lady goes ofTiu a pet, mutter ing about the insolence of "ahem that hasn't a rag to their backs." -i , The bundle of satin, selfishness and lace has no sooner gon than her presence is sup plied by a plainly dressed Quaker lady, whose mild, serene countenance expressed nothing but love and human charity. This visit proves a true God-send to tho needy widow. The " wanted home" is found. The little Isabel's pale cheeks will soon bloom out with the roses of health. The weary mother will find work enough to do at a fair price to keep herself and fcbaby." The -boQk" will be taught to the young Isabel, and wholesome precept and example taught with it. . Let us bless God there is still some good left in the world, anal let us pray that many more like the benevolent Quaker lady may be raised up to comfort the down-trod Jen and needy, , , , .
