A Negro Woman, named Maria Scott, was arrested yesterday evening, by officer Perrin, for breaking the arm of a child of Mrs. Rachel Otterheimer, of Rocketts, and afterwards attempting to throw it in the river. It had excited her ire in some way, and she would undoubtedly have carried her felonious intentions into execution had she not been prevented.
