upon life OF shame and degradation.
This is the melancholy revelation made TO
the police yesterday. The inhuman prime
cause Of this mischief il James Harvey, a
splicer engaged at the compress on Sena-
tobia street, Fort Pickering. Although
the fellow receives weekly salary ade-
quate for all the necessities of his modest
and economical family, he seldom, IL ever,
devoted any Of il TO that purpose, but
squandered II in frequent debauchcs, a
feature OF which was shameful intimacy
with vile ncgrcss Harvey was
bestial in all his instincts, II the
stories OF his fallen wife and eld-
est child, girl nine years old, are
10 he credited. These are to the effect that
he has attempted more than once TO take
fieDdish liberties with the girl and because
she resisted beat her numerically. II was
partly because OF this, the wife and mother
states, that she fled from him one week
ago and sunk into the dr'gs Of immortality.
Yesterday morning Officer Howard Chas.
tame, colored, Of the police force, reported
10 Capt, Hackctt that there wcrr four little
children, three girls and boy, the oldest
nine years Of age and the youngest only
fifteen months, In n cold and bare room ON
the second floor Of l32 Desoto street. The
place was an uninviting shanty and occu.
pied 10y negroes, except the white family
referred TO. The patrolman took lively
interest in getting the deserted children
into safe and comfortable quarters, and
was instructed 10y the captain TO engage a
hack and bring them 10 the central station.
This was done. Mn. Harvey was notified
at the low abode OF sin she had entered,
and went 10 the station. There she told,
in substance. the story related above, but
with an unconcern for their pitiablc condi-
ton and future welfare that left no doubt
OF her utter depnyiiy, though Il may in
measure have been forced upon her by an
unfortunate alliance with Harvey.
Squire John J. Barry, whose Office Is

brief statement that the plff. during the time
for which compensation is claimed was main
tanned as a pauper by the defts., and that
whatever labor the plf. had performed was
without any contract with them, and was for
his own partial support. The plff. who is %

worth from ten to fifteen dollars per month

The defendants in reply introduced testi-

his father was put under guardianship on
account of mental incompetency, and that
his farm, now worth about 800, was sold by
his guardian to the town who assumed the

ever since the town took the farm, with his

The New York Mail and Express re-
CARDS the Boston banquet with clear eye
and remarks that simultaneously with
this square and honest Democratic demon
assembled at dinner In Boston, and Mr.
Lowell-who had been getting more and
more thoroughly English since he began
to court the English nobility as the Amer
lean Minister-presided over an assem-
blage of old and new Democrats, which
included such ardent Southern Free
Traders as Senator Morgan of Alabama,
Representative Breckenridge of Kentucky,
ginia. Mr.. Lowell showed the evil effects
Of his present political associations by
comprehensively slurring the great mass
Of voting American citizens, when he said
that each party appeared to make use of
the same unworthy tricks for its own inn
mediate advantage; each had en- abund-
ance of aces In its sleeve" Mr.. Lowell
has shown his preference for the ''court
cards" but that is no reason why he should
calumniate millions Of Americans who
prefer their own institutions and interests
to those of England
The Boston Traveller, with great truth
fulness and directness of application, re-
marks that "when Mr.. Lowell says that,
In his belief, for twenty years men in this
country have not put their honest opin-
Ions into their votes, he degrades himself
and all his countrymen. When he charges
that parties during the same period have
made use ''of the same unworthy tricks
for its own immediate advantage, each
having Al abundance of aces in its sleeve"
II causes the reader to wonder how any
one so intensely devoted to clean politics
rs he could accept from such foul and
unjustifiable party one of the most
distinguished and responsible offices it
had to bestow." 1t may also be inquired
what kind of political morality is that
which allows man of refined literary
tastes and elevated intellectual claims to
be regarded Republican during the
twenty years when there was
"no difference between the two
political parties to ask for and share its
honors, yet as soon as he has obtained
from that party all possible for him to
obtain, turn his back upon it and outrage
the memory Of its venerated hero by
putting him on the plane of Grover Cleve-
land, thus adding the sin of ingratitude
to partisan Dissertation. This may be con-
sistent with the peculiar ethics in vogue
In certain circles of Boston and its neigh
borhood, but it is clearly not permissible
among honorable gentlemen in respectable
political associations. One can forgive it
In James Russell Lowell only on the
reasonable presumption that he moves so
much in the high, empyrean atmosphere
of the Grecan classics that he does not
appreciate the common-sense morality of
actual American life.
