A leogthy bill was filed in the Superior Court by Seth, Willie, sud Lizzie Paine, and Fannie Le Petrie against The Woman's Home, Elmira Paine, P. W. Gates, J. Y. Scammon, A. G. Throop, W. H. Ryder, Gurdon 8. Hubbard, acd George W. Gage, acking for an account and iujonction. The complainants state that Seth Pame, Br, now deceased, in January, 1866, conceived the idea of organizing & co-operative 1nstitation to furnish femalos with a home and liviog at & ¥ower price than they could procure it elsewhere, and yet at a rate high enough to give him, ‘““as propristor, patron, and manager, a just compensation in place of profit.” He accordingly bought two lots and caused to be erected a bilding which is pow kuown as ‘* The Woman's Home,” at No. 189 West Jackson street. In carrying out this proj- ect, Paine incurred debts to the amount of £20,000 or more, and complainants aver that he used fuods held “by Inm _in_ trust for them, in paying ~ those debts. In 1867 be was instrumental in obtaining the paseage of an act by the Legisiature for the incorporation of ** Unitary Homes," and some attempt was made to form a corporation under that act, but it is alleged that the effort was not successful, because Paine, who. by the way, is complainants’ father, did Dot comply with ita terms. Btock certificates were, however, issued to the amount of §27,000, of which Paine re- ceived £9,000. Some time in 1868, Paine, P."W. Gates' and others who bad been interested in this enter- prise, bad a meeting and elocted so-called Di- Tectors of the so-onlled corporation, **The ‘Woman's Home.” These compriged Paice, Gates, J. Youug Scammon, A. G. Throop, W. H. Ryder, G. S. Hubbard, and George W. Gage. It i al- leged that no Board of Directors ever legally existod, that no such corporation was ever croated, nor were any legal stock certificates ever issued and that tho ouly value of the Iatter is merely a8 a statement of the amodnt of trust ‘money used by Paine. Tho latter expended the most of his time in the interest of the ** Home ” up to the time of his death, which occurred in 1872, and complainants mssert that his Iabor and skill was worth for that timo the sum of 810,000, and that the promises were worth $50,000in_all at the time of nis death. The buildings it is also stated were chiefly erect- ed with the trast funds of the complainants or with voluntary contributions made by persons interested in the enterprise not with a view of holding stock or to sesumo any ligbility on ac- count of the investment. Paine, it is claimed, never intended it to be an eleemosynary inati tution, but » partnership or join ownership business. * When the founder djed the prmciples he wished to_reduce to practice were abangoned, and the “*Home" retrograded to & *‘common boarding- house,” and * aivertisements for soy sud sl clasges of boarders have been.inserted in the newspapers without any reference to the design of the institation,"” or the claas of women it was designed to help. After Paine’s death lstters of administration wera taken ont by his wife, and appraisers ap- pointed, who retarned a report of ‘‘no property found.” Au inventory was subsequently filed by the widow which embraced the ninety shares of stock in the ** Home.” The appraisers then set off the widow's award, and, as there was no property from which to take it, she, a8 sdmivis- tratrix, filed a petition asking that the stock be 2old to pay the award. _An order was therefore made authuriziog the salo to be made, and fixiog to-morrow- as the time. To provent this sale, therefore, the bill sbove men- tioned was filed. The complainants sfate that the administratrix has represented that the “Home” io an_eleemosynary institution, snd that ita stock pays mo dividends, while the allege that it is not s charity, but found on the basis of making a just compensation, and thac, if the sale in allowed *to take place undor such representations, . the stock will zell for very ttle or motbing at all, and their rights will be jeoparded. ~They sc- cordingly pray that the sale may bo stopped, that ao account may be had, and that the Prop- erty of the Home may be decreed to belong to them, because of Taine’s baving mixed the trast funds with bis owo, g0 that thoy could Dot ba separate —_— DESPLAINES CAMP.GROUNDS.

The whole snbject of Bpiritualism seems, indeed, to have dropped outof Mr. Owen's thought,—his delirium and other sberrations presentiog mone of the char- actenstics whick might be anticipated were bis insanity the result of his speculstions, investiga- tions, or humiliations coouected with that sub- ject.
