Mrs. Ayre's injuries will in all probabil:-
ty, prove fatal.
Sergeant Ryan at once sent officers to
the home Of the Hewitts, and this is what
the officers found Mrs. Hewitt was lying
on the floor Of the single room occupied
by the family, in a drunken sleep Pat
rick Hewitt. her husband, also drunk,
was sitting at rickety table, with few
soiled, empty dishes before him. There
was an apology for a stove in the ROOM
but no FIRE in il. In a corner of the little
apartment was an armful Of filthy straw,
damp and ice cold. On this straw were
lying the two children. twins. The little
things were almost naked, and when the
officers picked them up some Of the
straw was found frozen tight to their
bodies. They are but fifteen months old.
The officers were obliged to send out for
light, as none was TO be found in the
room, nor anything to make light with.
Besides crazy bed and two stools to
match the apartment was devoid of fur
niture
Little or no information could be got
from the drunken parents, and il was
from others in the house the officers
learned that there was yet another child,
a boy of nine years, belonging to the
used pantry, back Of the room, buried in
mass OF filthy rags, fast asleep. The
poor child had crawled in among the rags
to keep warm. The officers bundled the
whole family off the station house. Mrs.
Hewitt had neither shoes, stockings nor
bonnet. Barefooted, with a ragged. dirty
quilt thrown over her head in the man
ner of shawl, she appeared in court -
CHARGES Of cruPltv to their children were
made against Mr. and Mrs Hewitt and a
separate charge by Mrs. Ayres against
Mrs. Hewitt for assault and battery. JUS
tice Kilbreth held them as charged, to
answer
Officer Lumberg Of the society SAID yes
terday that the children were all but
starved they were skin and bones, and
it would be a marvel if they were not per-
manently diseased Their parents are
likewise emaciated, and have the look OF
hard and constant drinkers.
The little boy, on being questioned, said
that every penny went for liquor He
was often times out to beg, and thus sup
piled the family with stale food When
ever he got money it was laid out foI
drink. His mother had sold every sale
able article for liquor, even to her shoes
and the child could not recall when be

the Children, to which Justice Kilbreth
consigned them.

The Cincinnati Commercial has long
and pitiful account of the death of Mrs.
Church, wife of John Church, the we'll
known music dealer, and his cruelty,
causing the death Of his wife, will forev-
er damn him in the opinion Of all true
men and women. We may, at some fu-
ture time, publish the article from the
Commercial. 1t is far more interesting
than the most exciting novel.
We take the following from the Bos
ton Herald
CNcINNATI, Jan. Mrs. John Church.
wife OF John Church, Jr., the well known
music dealer of this oity and New York.
died here on New Years Day. She and
her husband had parted, the wife taking
one child and Mr. Church the other, the
eldest, daughter 10 years of age, with
the agreement, it is claimed, that the
wife was to see the daughter often.
Church soon sent her to Boston, where
he formerly resided, and her mother sell
dom saw her. This was a sad blow to
the mother, who was very affectionate.
She was taken i'll with pneumonia few
days ago, and during her sickness ex-
pressed a very fervent desire to see her
child Finally the father sent to Boston
| for his daughter, and she came, arriving
on Christmas day She was taken by
him to the house where Mrs Church lay
i'll, and, without seeing her, left the
child, agreeing, occording to the state
ment of the nurse, that the child should
see her two hours every day.
At the end Of that time, on the first
day, the child was taken away, and new
er returned. After waiting two days the
mother became almost distracted at the
absence of her child, and her father visit
ed Mr.. Church on Christmas Day to find
out why she was not sent, and was told
that the child had been sent back to
Boston. On being told of this, the un.
fortunate mother, who had waited in ag-
ony of suspense for her fathers return,
became insane. Her time was spent be.
tween piteous calls for little Edith and
the heaping of caresses upon an imagina-
ry child, drawing the bedclothes in a
bundle to her breast, and addressing
them in a most touching way as her dear
/ Edith. During her sane intervals, which
were very few and brief, she suffered ter
ribly, complaining of her breast and call
ing loudly for her child. She grew rap
idly weaker, not seemingly from the
pneumonia, which was not, it is said, at
all serious, but from the effects, it is be-
lieved, of the shock caused by the sepa-
ration, and, on New Years morning,
died There is much excitement over
the matter, and, though Mr.. Church has
formerly stood well in Cincinnati, the
feeling is very much against him. He is
now absent in Boston, at the residence
of Mr.. Russell, a brother-in-law. His
store was closed to day in respect to the
death OF his wife His attorney explains
that the removal of Edith from the house
where her mother was was necessary. ow
ing to legal points in the divorce case
still pending. Mrs. Church was very
beautiful woman, and of high standing
in society, being a niece of the celebrat
ed Thomas Corwin, the famous orator
and politician.

The Hayes idiots are all the time de-
claring that Hayes shadowed forth, in
his admirable letter of acceptance, the
course he has since been pursuing Let
us see. Inthat letter he said:
"We should return to the principles
and practices Of the founders Of the gov
ernment, supplying by legislation when
needed, that which was formerly estab-
lished custom. They neither expected
nor desired from the public officer any
partisan service. They meant that pub
lie officers should owe their whole service
to the government and to the people
They meant that the officer should be
secure in his tenure as long as his per-
sonal character remained untarnished,
and the performance Of his duties salts
factory. If elected. shall conduct the
administration Of the government upon
these principles; and all constitutional
powers vested in the Executive will be
employed TO establish this reform"
Hayes removed Bowling, Postmaster at
Toledo, to make place for one Reed, to
pay Reed for voting for Stanley Matthews,
to pay Matthews for selling out the Re.
publican party to the rebels, il they
would let Hayes in as President. No one
claims that Dowling's character was tarn-
ished, or that the performance of the du-
ties of the Office were not performed in a
satisfactory manner. Precisely the same
may be said OF Mrs. Adair a soldiers
widow, who was removed from the Post.
office in Portsmouth, to make room for
chronic office-holder. Mrs. Adair was
never accused of having a tarnished
character, or of not having rendered en-
tire satisfaction in the discharge of the
duties of the Office. Precisely the same
may be said Of the attempt to remove
the New York officers
The New York Tribune, a Hayes pa.
per, in spes king Of this matter, is com
PEELED to say:
"The friends Of reform must remember
that there is nothing scandalous in the
records of the present Collector and
Naval Officer at this port to require that
they should be removed as an example,
and when the Senate refuses to advise
and consent to their dismissal, it merely
exercises its constitutional right"
Hayes is a sham and fraud, and the
entire people are rapidly coming to COM
prehend and understand this disagreea-
BILE and humiliating fact
