HAGERSTOWN, SEPT. 7.

Mysterious.—Two men, one on horseback and the other in a gig, having with them a yellow woman and a young child, arrived at the tavern in Mercersburg in the afternoon of Thursday the 26th ult. The men requested that the woman and child should have a private room, and be furnished, in the room, with what they might want; whilst they attended to some business which they had to transact in town. Their request was complied with; and they were out through the place during a part of the afternoon. On their return to the tavern, they were observed to enter the room in which the woman and child remained, as clandestinely as they could; and, during their stay at the tavern, their general conduct was singular and suspicious. About 11 o'clock at night they ordered their horses, and prepared to start. Before their departure, however, they observed, that no doubt their conduct appeared mysterious; that the child they had with them belonged to "an innocent young lady;" and that the yellow woman was employed to take care of it.

About the same time, a young child was found, early in the morning, by some black people, at their door, in the neighborhood of Green-Castle, and about six or seven miles from this place.— With the child was left a quantity of fine clothes.

There is something mysterious in both of the above cases; and it is quite probable that they are intimately connected. If so, perhaps this notice of them may lead to a discovery of the unnatural parties concerned,—Torch Light.
