Cuarer or Bastanpy.—Yesterday morn: ing, Patrick Madigan was charged on the oath of Selina Wall with being the father of an illegitimate female child born of her body The case was laid before Justice Donn, and it was shown by the evidence that Selina Wall is a married woman ; that the child was born after her marriage ; and she was at the time of the birth of thechild a resident of the State of Virginia, where she lived with her bus- band, and left there last Saturday. Justice Donn decided that the child being born in wedlock, the law presumed it to be legitimate, and it was not competent for the mother to testify to non-intercourse with her husband. He therefore dismissed the case.

He sustained consider- able injary about the small of the back and side, both internally andexternally. He was removed to his home, where he received the benefit of medical skill. We learn that his condition this morning is as comfortable as could be expected. Owing to the very inclement state of the weather last night but few of our city fathers turned out. Cousequently there was not a quorum of either Board of the Corporation in attendance.

Discustinc DepRavity.—The Boston Times says: ‘* About a week since one of the moni- tors of the first class in a public school for girls, at the North End, happened by chance to find a written note on the floor of the school, which she read, and was so astonished atthe contents that she handed it to her female teacher. The note was written by one of the pupils to another in the same class, and re- vealed (in language too indecent for pablica- tion) the astonishing intelligence that the wri- ter of the note and five of her schovulmates, girls between the ages of 12 and 15 yeare, bad bcen seduced, and were in the dai y babit of visting certain places and indulging in the lewdest «onduct. This disclosure was most startling to the teacher. and she instantly sent for the mothers of the depraved girls. As soon as they arrived an examination wae made, and the girls made full confession of everything, disclosing the particulars in Te- gard tothe manner in which they wece first induced to corrupt themselves, and the mo- ties for coptinuing. As the girls related the deeds which they had performed the anguish of their mothers was most terrible. “ The six girls were subsequently taken to their homes, wheze further and separate in- vestigations were made, and it was pretty salistactorily ascertained that five of tl had been introduced to their debauchees, and influenced by the sixth girl, who, we are in- formed. har Leew reared among vile asscclates and is naturally inclined to vice.
