The Black fOmit.-We publish
ed last week an article from a CORES
pendent in CentLalia slightly touching
upon the filthy Developments which
have recently come to light in that
city involving in all its nastiness the
Couaty Jadge of Woed County, Mr..
HENRY HAYDEN, and the wife of one
of our best and most respected citizens.
The article alluded to only slightly re-
veals the enormity of the wickedness
of the licentious iend who has de-
spoiled a once happy home, by his
wiles and insiduous advances under
the guise of friendship and gentleman
ly courtesy, and who has hitherto for
a term of months, not TO say years, at
tempted TO ins;nuate himself into the
affections Of certain respectable women
of our communities. with a success
which time, and future developemcnts
can alone determine. It is a sad his
tory, and could the fearful story of the
inner life of this human fend be told
to the world, we venture the assertion,
that nothing hitherto published in
that scavenger of social faith, the
Chicago Times, could rival it in all its
hideous proportions.
For months this man who las as
pired to high official honors, having
been a candidate Of the Greenback
party for the position of Attorney
General, subsequently an aspirant fer
the Circuit Judgeship of the Seventh
Judicial Circuit, position he hoped
to reach by means employed SO degrad
ing and lev rs to disgrace him in the
eyes Of every right-Iinded man still
later striving to become mayor Of our
sister city, a position that ever COM
mands respect, and prior to all hold
ing the position Ct city Superintendent
Of our Howe High School, and during
whose administratio such scandal
arose as to warrant the Board in per-
emptorily closing the school, this
polished devil in broadcloth has made
q speciality Of destroying virtue and
debauching homes in manner SO APP
parent that the public eye must per-
force notice and condemn.
At last this assassin of the home,
this sanity CD biood-clotted fead
VIII ose absence from hell creates lone
line among the fends Of Plutonian
darkness, has been caught in the mesh
es Of his own weaving. His holiness
has exposed his liaisona, and we mis-
take the temper of our people if his
"walks among the roses" henceforth
be so seductive as h eretofore. We
shall MOTIVE would not further wound
the heart Of the manly man, husband
and father, whose heart already bleeds
through the fortunes inflicted by the
pretended friend who has made desc
late once happy home, neither can
we make more wretched the wife of
him whose heart has hid its sorrows so
successfully and with such wifely de-
yotion through years and months Of
soul torture. The public have heard
it all. The verdict has been given,
and the glossy wretch whose course
must almost mako Divine love abhQr
and hate, must cringe before the an
athenas' Of an outraged people. He
should henceforth hide his presence
and obey the voice of duty which
DANGEROUSLY calls for the abdication OF
the position he holds as guardian Of the
interests of widows and orphans, and
away from the presence of men and In
the seelusion of his own guilty heart
seek forgiveness from that God whose
I'll reaching eye has beheld each devil

has sworn to protect and defend before
The sacred alter Of 3 noble institution,
