Cricaao, Oct. 9.~Without fear of contradic- tion, we have estublished by our three previous articles the burging insults and shameful impo- sitions inflicted by some of the officers of the Home upon the aged inmates. We have seen that by the charter ot the Snstitution the jn- mates are not puupers, and cannot lawfully be treated ne such. Yet we ‘have seen these offi- cers, immediately upon coming into possession of the household goods of these old people and their entry fee of $200, require. them to signa cut-throat contract the like of which has been declared void more than once by our Supreme Court on the grounds of public policy), but by the terms of which every dollar can be confis- cated at the will of the oflicers, and the inmates. themselves thrust unceremoniously | into the streets by force and without proc- ess of iuw. ‘We have seen these vener- ble " Inmates marched to their meals ike convicts in a penitentiary at the unlocking of a door, and dented a. morsel af food at such other hours us would be compatible with their weak and uncertain appetites. We buvg seen them slundered and truduced by these’same officers and represented to the world not as a compuny of Caristian women, well deserving the love and sympathy of a charitable public, but a repulsive body of pilfercrs and malefact- ors deserving not a friend, but a detective; not matron, bucan overseer. We have seen their rightto determine who may bave access to their private apartinents denied, aud the sanctity of Their own rooms unrespected. We have seen their foutsteps dogged by spies and cheir private Tous infested with informers to satisty the morbid curiosity of fashionable women, who cannot govern a humane institution with- out listening to the most. private con- versations,—without knowing the very dreams of weary age as they tit througa the chumbers of the inind in the stilt hoursof night. Wehave seen there fshlunable women Assume to sit ns a0 eriminal court end ape the Judicial office. Huve sccn them deny to the respondent a copy of the charges, deny them the benelit of counsel, re- Suse to have the testimony preserved, entertain cburges which wore made without excuse. ren- der judgments which were unsustuined by the evidence, and summons the offender to trial on the Sabvath-day. Let us naw consider the priv- dleges whicn tyese old people are allowed outside of the iustiution. One wonld suppose that kind and humzne officers would not only permit but encourage all kindnesses and privileges which inight be extended to these old peuple. True, they ure gind to recelye money or donations—any- thing that passes through their bands. /It is not known that they ever refused to receive a dollar. But Jet the favor be extended directly to the in- mute and it seems to make the officers sick at heart,—hbas the subduing effect that pennyroral bas on teas. Not long uso a Tew of the inmates were invited out to tea, To vary almost any, monotony is sometimes a:relief. . Aud then the bill of fare ut the Home Js ‘not In_ all respects uite as full as it is athe Palmer Houze or the Grund Pactic, 1n fuct they seldom have printed bilis cf fare at the Home, although if they hada hand-preas the Matron could print. them every day herself and still bave plenty of time to buy. tocks and bolts and conduct fumily prayers.

If these fasaiunable, humane ladies bad attempted to get this informatio by going guictly into the back-yard and approaching the back-door of the dining-room, their fushionu- bic and bumanc limbs might have been terribiy mutilated bs an unfashionable and inhumune guadruped commonty called a dog. My theory is that they descended from their carri and took up their position boldly but nolselesly. in frontofthe house. This would be more in accord- ance with their dignity and posiaon in society, and that loftiness with which fashion usually does tai Of course they could not hear a word, but they could observe every moyement through the uncurtained window. ‘hey proba- hiy bad the assistance of opera-glasses, a8 they usually curry them.

NEW YORK, Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, New York, Oct. 9.—The speculation to-day exhibits n further shrinkage, caused by the pressure of sales by the smaller bears and the disinclination of people geacrally to incur fresh risks until after next Tuesday's elections are decided. The changes to-day are not important or significant. There have been further realiza- tons and renewed short sales. There is no large short interest as yet, and the heavier op- erators are looking on. The cluse was very steady at the decline.

Asa writer, it 13 sutticient to say that * Tom Brown " is known -at every fireside in the land us an instructive and cheer- fulcompanion. Asa statesman, it is enough that we remember you were the open and elo- uent friend and advocate of the Americnn ‘nion and Constitution, and the liberties of the people, during the darkest hours of our tate Civil War. Andas ‘k poilauthropist you bave endeared yourname and your bumanity ‘to all mankind, and to every age, sex, und condition. We remember that sad morning, nine years ago, when the firc-bells hud suircely done sounding theirdrend chimes,and all cbristendom. were sending forward supplies of food, ctoth- ing, and tnoney, and the bunyry were fed and the naked clad, that a new chord was struck in human sympathy, and a yolce came ucross the sea beuring the message from those far-olf Isles of tho British Empire that Tom Brown” had issued an appeal to .the British authors and writers in fiver of a new free. public library in Chicago. We remember its words of perpetual cheer, that it would be ataken of “that senti- ment of kinship” which, under all cireum- stances, and irrespective of every consideration, would ever powerfully atfcct all the tranches of the English race. That appeal was taken up In Chicaso. Jt wus responded to by our peo- ple, and that “token" is here In our midst. ‘he Congress and chief oflicers of the Govern-" ment of the United States, listening to such words In behalf of our city, set apart the smoked. walls of what hud been one of. Its chief public building—still standing amidst the burning ruins—us the future@nd permanent seat of the institution which, as mark of sympathy, yon bud thus ureated! It is here with the splendid contributions you bad caused to be made, and we bave that Mterature of thirteen centurics. the common tuberitance of all Enylish-speaxin people. We have the common hiw.of England, that parent of. modern free government. that great source of the liberal principles apou which «American liberty and our own free Goverament is bused. It inspired the War of the Revolu- ton, the Independence of the Colontes; and tho common liw of England to-dhiy is the best guar- antec against all tendencies to anarchy on tho one band or despotism on the other. ° We again bid you a-cordial- welcome to these halis. We trust it wiil be our own and your good fortune to live many years to come, and ae re Anaettarsion wits which your name will ever be sssocinted may prosper accor your anticipucions, (Applause) = ota » "MR. HUGHES, in responding, said: Mr. President, and friends ull,—us I trust U may be allowed to call you,—L wish that I had becn aware, as my friend Mr. Hoyne was, that I should be culled upon to nd- dress you this morning,’ as then [should have tuken the precaution which he has taken, and prepared carefully the remarks which I huve to uddress to you, {Luughter.] However, £ am sure that you will accept any extempore re- marks that I have to mnke in that spiritof great kindness and sympathy which has ulways been extended to me in this new ‘section of the great “English-speaking people, and nowhere” perbaps—certuinly ; nowhere more cordially—than in this very remarkable olty of yours. Your remarks, sir, have recalled Yer: vividly to my mind the great impression which the terrible misfortune of ‘this city ten years ago created in the British istunds, I may say thut every one there, [ think, from the Queen downwurds, was thrilled by that astounding news, and thatthe whole heart of the nation was at once infiamed, if I may so say, with o a desire todo what they could to show their sympathy and their appreciation of your mis- fertune, and of the noble way In which ithvas borne. I,asone of those who, as you have kindly said, bad always taken a deep interest in the fife of this country, of course had to consider how could contribute best my mite towards the uewal of the splendid life of this city, which had been endangered by. that greut calamity. Well. it at once occurred to me that any amall money contributfon that I might be able to make would be of pructically no value. Both on this ede and from the other materiul wealth of all descriptions was being put at the service of the brave citizens of this city, and x conteibution of that k nd would buve been valueless. But it occurred to me that there wus 2 need of this city waica I, from my peculiar position as an author and a3 Connected with literury men, might beenabled to meet. If you will allow me to say’ 90, when I was here ten years ago, the great need which struck me ‘jn Chicugo was not material need‘{n auy way; in, netivity and miteriai success* all muterlal wen studing as shu this city was ‘and, after. lunch, vw Ic : see the sights. ‘Inthe evéring he was enter” -Yate affair, in your broad room.
