A correspondent who has been dazzled by the
beauty of the cottage city at Oak Bluffs, adds
that the conspicuous freedom of the Vineyard
involves the being pretty well got up in dress,
the ladies especially toned up to some proper
harmony with the nice surroundings The
flannel shirts, wrapper and slipper style, is not
entirely consistent with the fronts on Ocean av-
enue, and we fear that the Vineyard is getting
by degrees q little too nice and expensive for
genuine sea side comfort

Your Mandrake Pills are the only medicine

~ A series of meetings have been held
at Chica go, lately by ladies who have either
been refused assistance or only partially
relieved by the Relief and Aid Society,
during the past winter, for the purpose of
giving expression to their indignation, and
securing an investigation into the transact
ion of the Society. While they don't direct
ly charge the principal officers with dishon-
esty, they hold them to have been negli-
gent and incompetent, and their employees
rude and corrupt. The charges against
the latter are crcumstantial and of a very
grave character. One instance is given in
the case of fouI families occupying single
house of three receiving abundance Of
everything by paying the visitor S. each,
while the other, the most needy, received
nothing because it refused or was unable to
bride the visitor.

GB- The committee having in charge the
investigation into the conduct Of Rev. DIR.
Huston, has so far completed its labors as
to be nearly ready to frame regular church
indictment against him, upon which he
will be called TO answer. The committee
having only two days in the week to work,
the Investigation is naturally slow, as there
are great many charges being brought
against him from different portions of the
country where he has ministered, and al
most every day the committee are in re-
ceipt Of communications concerning his
past career, which, if true, show life Of
licentious crime never before heard of in
this country. The mother of the young
school girl whom he is alleged TO have'ru-
ined in this city, has given her testimony
TO the committee, but the tale of the girl
herself will not be heard until he makes
answer 10 the indictment.

A Sort of Kidnapping Case.

On Tuesday last two little negro boys;
Joe and Ezekiel, aged respectively about
II and IA years, were brought to our
town by an officer of the law, who had
taken them on writ of Habeas Corpus
from the possession of John Gillion,
Lemuel Gillion and Lark Rodgers, citi-
zens, if we mistake not, of the Mine
Creek section. The mother, Kitty jack
son, lives on the plantation of Mr.. G. NJ.
Broadwater, and AYERS that the aforesaid
persons took the children from the afore-
said plantation without her consent. She
then went, and, getting hold of them,
brought them back home. Subsequent
iy, the Gilliops and Rodgers again took
them away forcibly. And now the mother
has them on Ha6eas Corpus. We hear
the boys hired themselves without the
mothers consent. One of the boys looks
ragged and worse for wear. AS we have
heard it, the tale makes Rodgers and the
Gilleons appear decidedly, lawless and
high-handed, and all good citizens will
discountenance and disapprove of their
conduct.
The casewas heard on Tuesday evening
before Messrs. Ramsay and Harris, Trial
Just ,es. and the children remanded to
their mother, as they doubtless should
have been. oq

shall, without regard Of the consequences,

for them, and will silently suffer none to
defame them Therefore, ifthe Radicals,
