Louis Union, is decidedly a “heroine.” We montioued r aday or two since, rliat she hud adbucted hprchildren from this m ighhrrrhood. We have since learned further pui tiettfurs of the circumstances.’ Ac cording to our information, she gained access to the litilo girl,"who was ut a convent,by pledg ing her word that she would u^e no illegal or forcible means to get possession of the child. The guardian of tlie children was not at homo « hen t,ho application was made at his residence, but under this solemn promise, his Udy con sented to accompany Mrs. Howard to tho con vent. \\ hen limy haA *arrived there, the Lady Superior, by reque.-i, b)*o«iglit forward the child, 'when the mother," seining it, threw aside bet- shawl, und exposed a belt of pistols, declaring her intetniou -to carry ofi'her child ut all has- •uiflsjtaml saying, “I have killed, one ir onion, and lean kill others if lam opposed !” Tho Indip's, struck with consternation, made no n sistiince, and soon after, Mrs. Howard, with her child, entered a earring* and departed.
