A soldiers widow, rather sprightly look.
ing woman came to Cairo not many months
ago, and, with her two little boys, secured
rooms and commenced housekeeping within
mile of the market homse. In due time q
negro man, a great, coarse, uncouth, timber
jointcd, stumbling creature, formed her ac-
quaintance and made her house his headquar-
ters. In time an attachment, revolving to
contemplate, sprung up between the two, and
an offer of marriage upon the part of the
negro was accepted. Anticipating that OBJ
stacles would DO thrown in the way, should
an attempt be made to consummatc their
matrimonial purpose in Cairo, the couple
awaited the receipt Of the childrcns bounty
money from the government, and then, taking
the cars, visited St. Louis. Much to their
surprise, they failed there in enlisting the
services Of any person duly authorized to
unite them in marriage. They returned to
Cairo, whore they invested the balance left of
the bounty money in mule and dray for the
negro, and are now living together to all
appearances as husband and wife. All this,
although very obnoxious to common decency,
is bearable, because in harmony with the
teachings of the "God-and-humanity" element
of society. But this is not the worst The
two little boys, sprightly little fellows, who
heartily dctest the negro, are savagely bruised
and beaten, striped and abused because they
refuse TO call him "father.' They are poorly
clad ragged, in fact, and dirty but their
proud spirits revolt at the bare suggestion
that the ignorant and debased black, who has
won the affections of their shameless mother,
can ever ill the place Of their soldier-father
Of whom they have distinct recollection
The rod falls heavily upon their tender flesh,
welt answering every blow; but the inquiry,
"will you call him father ?' comes the UNI
varying and emphatic mo, l cannot, will
not,
The little boys, we understand were sent
10 one Of the city schools, but the crime of
the mother becoming known, the taunts, jeers,
scorn and derison of their playmates became
uncomfortable, and they left. Their mother
tried to whip them back, but the determined
little fellows, enduring the most brutal beat
ings, ayowed purpose to die rather than
face again the story Of her shame, %. repeated
