TRUTn STRANG EK THAN FICTION.
Last winter, a gcnrleiban m New York, con
nected with the Mission Sunday School of Dr.
Alexander's church, found a little girl selling
candies and apples oa the corner "of the Park
on Sunday morning. " The child was scantily
clad and the morning was .bitter cold. The
girls appearance in other respects indicated
suffering and perhaps abuse. The gentleman
invited Jicr to go to Sunday School. The
child was willing, but could not go, because
the woman with whom she lived obliged her to
sell on Sunday as well as other days. The ev
ident distress of the child led the gentleman
to make inquiry. It was found that she had
neither father nor mother, (both having died
with tho ship fever,) that the woman with
whom she lived, who was a regular old harri
dan, had bo legal claim to her, perhaps had
stolen hef, and that there was gross cruelty
and -hardship in the whole business. The
teachers of the Sunday school, tor a while,
paid the old woman fifty cents a Sunday,
(which was about what the girl could make Ly
selling,) and thus secure for her the privilege
"of attending the School. But when it leaked
out that tbero was fraud as well 3S cruelty in
the case, they took steps to have her placed
under the care of the law. Sho was sent to
an asylum, and thence to a farm house in the
country. In tho latter place, the lady to whom
bdo was bound out was so much struck wifh
her manners and character, that she question
ed her closely about the reminiscences of early
childhood. The little girl had recolected
that she had come from England in a ship with
her father and mother. She recollected her
grand father's name, and in some other cir
cumstances, by which eventually tho town
and county were ascertained. The lady then
wroto a letter to England, and soon received
the joyful intelligence that the grandparents
were both living in Sellingo, Keut Co., Eng
land. Tho family were substantial farmers,
and forthwith sent funds to bring the lost one
home. Sho went accordingly, in the next
steamer, and is now living once more in com
fort and affluence at the old homestead. "We
have given only the general outline of the sto
ry. - The details are of the most romantic
character, quite equal to those found in woks
of fiction. A narrative, giving the whole sto
ry, has just been issued by the American Sun
day School Union, under , the title of " The
