Cupid in Boston.

From the following, which we take
from a Chicago paper, it will be seen
that our old friend, James Whitney,
has been cutting up bad capers-de-
sorting his family and disgracing the
friends and home of his youth, for
which we are sorry:
''The hub of the universe furnishes an
other evidence of how closely the muses.
are allied, and how lovingly and naturally
the ideal art of painting embraces the 'di-
vine art of music.
Six or eight years ago there boarded at
the Briggs House in this city stylish and
rather good looking young woman, named
Annie Haskins. Like all other stylish and
good looking young women, the gentle An
ME had numerous admirers, some of whom
are now living in Chicago, and all of whom
will shrug their shoulders, as they contem-
plate that mysterious and unseen power
which has suddenly welded the past to the
present.
Venus is not always the evening star,
and so, after shining for awhile over be-
nighted Chicago, Annie Haskins turned her
face to the East, and in due course of time
became the wife of William Willard, of
Sturbridge, Worcester county, Mass, one
of the most eminent and justly celebrated
portrait painters of the day. Boston claims
him, and takes especial delight in doing
him honor And this is the man, who, in
December, 1868, little more than oneshort
year ago, honored Annie Haskins by be-
slowing upon her his name, his honor, and
his fame for heritage.
There lived and sang in Boston "sweet
voiced tenor" named james Whitney, the
possessor of superb musical organ and :.
wife and five children. He sang tenor in
one of the great Boston churches, and, list
ening to his ravishing tones, the heart of
Mrs. Willard expanded and lifted itself in
admiration and worship. II were better
for the devotee if Heaven rather than the
singing Adonis had been the object of her
admiration and worship but such was not
the case, and she loved James Whitney.
OF course her love was reciprocated. Did
any one ever know a tenor who was not
susceptible? And so the husband OF wife
and the father of five children sang his
way into the heart of Mrs. Willard who
loved not her talented artist-husband, and
Boston was scandalized The ''hub" was
shocked to its centre. Church circles were
Mortified, and the sweet voiced tenor
could find no listeners where his intrigues
were known.

Gently been brought to light in Hart
ford, Conn. A few years ago Mr..
and Mrs. Michael BRASIL, living on
Russell street, were happy and uni
ted couple, having five children. The
father was a good workman, in the
employ of the Hartford and New Ha-
ven Railroad Company, but some time
ago became dissipated and lost his
place. Soon after, the mother took
to drink; then two children died,
another fractured hip, causing per-
manent lameness, and still another
became involved in crime and was
sent 10 the Reform School. Last Fri
day, the youngest child. only four
years of age, was found dead in bed

INDECENT.-We find the following
CO munication in the Burlington Free
Press, purporting to give the substance
Of remarks made by Mrs. Livermore,
at a late Woman Suffrage Convention
held in that city:
What, pray, did Mrs Livermore mean
when, in replying to the objection that the
domestic obligations Of women would in
terere with their discharge of official func-
ions, she said that not only were there
many unmarried and widows. and elderly
wives, who might take office withoutliabil-
ity of interru ption from the disabilities and
special duties of motherhood; but that
married 'c0me2, need not haze children unless
they chase Was it slip Of the tongue,
or was there here an uncovering of an i'm
portant plank in the WOmans Rights plat
form? The matter may be i little difficult
Of discussion; but We would really be glad
of a CLEAN OF light.
What did she mean - asks the
correspondent. We should say her
meaning was evident enough. What
but incipient child murder? If Mrs.
Livermore has not been misquoted
she is simply an atrocious being that
should be Kissed from the rostrum.-
We cannot but think, however, that
there is some mistake about it, for we
can hardly believe a decent audience
would sit and tamely listen to such in
decent hints.
