KU KLUx IN MAssAOHusETTs- CHANT
SHOULD ISSUE PRooLAMArIoN An
atrocious Ku Klu1 outrage is reported
in Massachusetts. On the evening of
April l8. Mrs. Harris was sitting at the
chamber window of her husbands house
in Claremont, when crowd of masked
men appeared in the street. and immedi-
ately entered the house through the
cellar. though their entrance was resist
ed by her husband. Tie chamber door
was broken down with an axe by four or
five of the ringleaders, and Mrs. Harris
was seized aud dragged into field,
who're she wns thrown down and strip
ped nearly naked, after which her per-
son was smeared with tsr and feathers.
Tar was also poured from pan upon
her head, and then, on her promising to
leave town, she was released.
It is not charged that Mrs. Harris had
been teaching negro children to read. or
that she intended to vote the Republi-.
can ticket; nevertheless, this was an un-
doubted Ku Klux demonstration, com
ing fully under the scope of the Ku
klux law; and it is to, be hoped that
General Grant will tnke Immediate men-
sures to send United States troops into
Massachusetts to enforce tho laws and
illustrate the wisdom of the bill which
vas passed for the suppression of such
ontrages, and to aid his denomination
for another term of Office.

A FINE PAINTING-In Hale's window may
be seen magnificent painting by Harry
Brown, which has lately been disposed of to q
gentleman in Cincinnati. 1t is in Harry's best
vein. The scene represented is off Cape Split,
Nova Scotia. On the right rises up sheer from
the angry waves, moaning and beating around
its base, precipitous cliff, to the height of
several hundred feet. Then comes level ex-
panse covered with verdure, on which are
pitched the tents of the tourists, and again,
above this plain, the cliff ascends, attaining a
tremendous altitude. Far out towards the hor-
zion stretches the cliff, coming to an abrupt
termination in the distance, broken off short,
aud beyond this arise from the water several
fragments of rock, the first OF which, shaped
like an irregular pyramid, rivals the cliff itself
in height, and is surrounded by other rocky
fragments, forming colossal group. Over the
broken SUBMITS the sea gulls futter in hun
dreds, while round their bases the billows break
and thunder, throwing the spray aioft in clouds
Of foam. The atmosphere, and all the details.
are worked up with great care. We hear that
another picture has been ordered from Harry,
representing the same vicinity, by gentleman
of this city.
AT Hale's also may be seen fine photograph
Of Hon. John Lynch, by King. and beautiful
little picture by Brown, entitled "Ouiet Fish

A NEW CHRoMo.-We bad the pleasure Of
inspecting beautiful new chrome 1T Hale's
yesterday entitled "a Fond Delusion" from
the original painting by Mrs. Walter ADDER
son. The picture delineates that dear deceit
which universal girlhood experiences. when
Missy hugs her doll in affectionate grasp at
tributing to it recognition and sensiblity. The
fresh, ruddy complexion Of the child indicates
exuberant health, and is in harmony with the
warm color of her dress, and the tints Of the
flowers in ker basket. The doll is made of a
shawl and cape folded SO as to resemble rag
baby; but the careful little mother loves it as
fondly as if it were the most costly mechanical
puppet that ever came from Paris. There is a
mingled tenderness and simplicity in the
whole conception that captivates the grown
folks, not less than the occupants of the nurs-
cry. The picture is 2OH25. The chrome is a
little strong in color but is one of the best
specimens of the new art.
