A CHILD MURDERED BY ITS MOTHER. An
inquest was held in Philadelphia, on Wednes-
day, over the body of an infant about nine
months old, which was found buried in Smick's
Woods, near Manayunk. 1t was stated before
the inquest, that the child had been drowned
by its mother in the the creek at that place and
then buried with dirt and leaves. 1t was also
stated that she had acknowledged the act, and
given as a reason, that she had lost her husband
that she was unable to keep the child-that
if she put it in the Almshonse, it would be i'll
treated, and she would never be allowed to have
possession of it again. Under these ercum-
stances she thought it would be happier out of
the world. The woman was committed to pri-
son to take her trial at Court.
