Petitions were read in favor of adopting the name of Eaton square, in honor of Ebenezer Eaton, who was tor some years chairman of the Selectmen of Dorchester. John T.

lark opposed this because Capt. Eaton opposed all public improvements, opposed the laying out of the square and opposed the annexation of Dorchester to Boston.

Clapp, J. H. Robinson, Jonathan Squire, Nathaniel Phillips and Cbas. P. Norrell, on the groimd that Air.

Eaton was au uncultivated, profane man, and that he kept a liquor store in the locality of the square Among those who defended Capt. Eaton were Nohiitn Capen, A. Capen, Dr. Leavitt, Dr. Benjamin Cushing, W.

W. Swan, Chickering and Sir. Edward Jones, The gentlemen agreed that Cant. Eaton sold rum, but at the time he was engaged in the business he was in the habit of supplying people in good standing, church members, the' church choir, and even the minister himself, lie was, however, an upright, honest man, and enjoyed the largest confidence of the ooumntnity. Other names suggested for the area were Danforth, Harris and Thaxter square.

The committee took the matter under advisement. The Fatherless and Widows' Society. The annual meeting of the Fatherless and Society was held on Wednesday forenoon at the residence of Mrs. E. S.

It was six years since the last reunion parade, and he determined that this year should not pa66 without the active and members coming together again. Speaking for the active company he said it was never in better condition than now; in the reorganized organization of the militia they had been changed from the First to the Filth Regiment, and they were all satisfied with their position.

The roll was within two men of its maximum, and they were all good men and soldiers, and could be depended upon on all occasions.

Jackson, and he left the company 1841. He gave some excellent advice to the members of the active company, urging them to see to it that the fair fame ol the militia did not suffer at their hands.

SOUTHERN SPAIN. The Second Lecture in the Stoddord Ornphic and Entertaining Description of m. Tour Through Southern Spain. The second lecture in the course now being delivered at Music Hall by John L. Stoddard was given in the presence of a very large and fashionable audience.

The subject for the evening was Southern aud the lecturer began by giving a humorous account of the annoyances and discomforts of railway travel Spain. He then gave a description of the city of Cordova, referring to its antiquity and to the high position it held when under tbe rule of tbe ancient Romans. It was the birthplace of the Roman philosopher Seneca, had an enormous population, an infinitude of temples, six hundred hundred bath houses, aud a library containing thousands of volumes. Now it is bat a shadow of its former greatness. Its population lias been reduced to forty thousand, its inns to two, its bathe and libraries are entirely gone.

Various views were given of Cordova, Spanish among which were the of Abdurrahman, the Roman Bridge and the House of Gon- who, in his time, made Cordova the first paved city in Europe, and caused street lamps to he erected even before they were in London. After viewing and hearing of the Court of Oranges and ihe Moorish Mosque, the journey was continued to Seville, the city of the guitar, where the Guadalqui- ver was seen and the Tower of Gold, where the treasure was kept, and where Columbus and brought tlieir stores of gold from the New World. A description was of the Alcazar and of the vandalism by which Us beauties Lave been so much marred by tlie rulers of Spain. An eloquent and brilliant account was then given of a bull fight, and views were sliown of the Coliseum, the Arena, the Chulos, the Banderilios, the Matador and various pliasesoi the contest. From Seville, with its guitars aud beggars and bull fights, the audience was taken to Granada, the Damascus of the YY'est, which was described as a dirty Spanish town, redeemed only by its Alhambra earthly Paradise.

From the town of Granada the approach lo the Alhambra is up a gentle acclivity, and the ascent is easily made. From the summit there is a delightful prospect across the undulating fields of Andalusia. Entering through the Gate of Justice, the traveler comes face to face with the unsightly walls of iiio unfinished palace built by Charles the Fifth, and to construct which part of the Alhambra was torn down. Beyond this we come to the Court of the Myrtles, where the wives ot the caliphs used to bathe, ami where the large bathing tanks still remain. Then through the Hall of the Ambassadors, the llall of the Two Sisters and the Court of the Lions, everywhere finding the beautiful slender pillars and the open lace work in stone, it seems as though the Moors brought with them from Spain the remembrances of their former life, and iu building lids palace put up light, slender columns in place ot their old tent polls, aud hung them with an imitation in stone of the light shawls and drapery that had once covered them.

To-day all the lace work of Spain is copied from the Alhambra. Alter a view of the gypsies and their homes the caverns ou the hils opposite the Alhambra the lecturer spoke of the Sierra Nevadas and the Last Sigh ot the Moors, the mountain where BoabdU paused for a iaot look at the Alhambra as lie tied from Spain. YY'ith a description and exceedingly fine views of Gibraltar the lecture closed. ENTERTAINMENTS. a kandf uchesse be convinced lliat Maurice French Opera Company is one of the finest that ba9 ever visited Boston, one only needs to attend a performance.

Last evening Grande was presented in a spirited style that won the favor of everyone lu the audience. Mile. Faola Marie assumed ihe title role, Mile. Angele that ot YVanda, and M. Capoul that of Fritz, and the rest of the cast was as follows: Prince Paul, M.

Poyard; Baron Tuck, M.Mezicres; Gen. Bourn, M. Jouard; Baron Grog, M. Dupuis; the four maids of honor, Miles. Bazin, BouvarJ, Estradere and Armand.

Mile. Paola impersonation was exceptionally fine, both as to singing aud acting. The audience was very enthusiastic at times, and the favorite songs wore, of course, demanded a second, and in one or two instances, a third time. was sung in fine spirit, and the rondeau, in the second act, and the drinking song in the last, were given in a free, breezy way that won for the artiste the most enthusiastic applause. Milo.

Angelo gave a very consistent irnper sonation of the role of the peasant girl, and tho four ladies who acted as maids of honor were good. M. Capoul sang his music In excellent style and wou several encores. The role is not a strong one, music ally, but ho made the most of it, in singing as weli as acting. M.

The fjty In response to a call issued by Mr. fifty members of the Butler wing of the Democratic party assembled at tbe Parker House on Tuesday evening to hunt up a candidate for Mayor. Neither Mr. lYY hitmore nor the officers of the City Committee, with the exception of Secretary Finnegan, were present. A discussion of candidates was in order, which lasted more than two hours.

Mayor Prince had a good many friends in the room, and Ids claims on the party tor a renonnnation were ardently advocated. Per contra, the Mayor was roughly handled by others, who accused him of leanings toward the Faneuil Hall party and of lack of fidelity to the working politicians in his appointments to office. It was charged that the Mayor had filled most of the vacant offices with men who voted agaiusl Gen. Butler, and with men whose efforts for the success ot the party had never been earnest or strong. Finally, at 9 a messenger was sent to fetch Eugene Flaherty and several other Greenbackers into the meeting, and in a remarkably short time the representatives of the fiat money party were present.

Mr. Flaherty made a speech, in which he declared that under certain circumstances his party would cast its votes for tbe Democratic nominee. Under other circumstances, however, a separate ticket would be put in tbe field. The names of the Hon. Benj.

Dean, Col. Charles Wilder and Axel Dearborn were brought forward as candidates and discussed at length and with varying results.

YV title lying there he put a pistol to his head, and, either accidentally or intentionally, the pistol went off, the bullet entering just above tlie left ear. Pollard was not so sertouslv injured but that he could go to a physician, who examined the wound, and found that the ball had glanced and gone out at the top of the head, a few inches above where it entered. Pollard has been in debt for some time, and was making strenuous exertions to relieve himself of his burdens, but to no avail, and it is thought that his want of success led him to the deed, if it was intended, as his wife affirms.

Tlie Paintings of William Morris Exhibition at the Museum of Pine Yotable of the Mas- ternieces of a Great Artist. A careful examination of the paintings by YY'illiam Morris Hunt, now on exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts, must impress any impartial observer with a sense of the wonderful genius of that great artist. Taken as a whole, the exbibition is a sinking commentary upon the career of the artist, and illustrates the graded steps of his artistic development from the years of his earliest work down to the time of bis greatest accomplishment, almost at the very day of his death. Never before has such a collection of the works of one man been brought together in this city, and It cannot fail to secure good results both in popular artistic education and in the estimate of the public upon Mr life and labors. Perhaps, however, the discussion as to the artistic merits of Mr.

Hunt is not likely soon to end. He has his enthusiastic admirers, while ethers affect to see little save faults upon his canvases. The present generation is undoubtedly too near him to ac curately measure and comprehend the length, breadth and capacity of his genius. Much of hrs work belongs to the future, and bis paintings must be seen and analyzed at the distance of time as well as at the distance of space for their full appreciation. But independent of all criticism and adverse opinion of the present, the man who can conceive and mature such magnificent idealities as the mural decorations of the Capitol at Albany, the last aud the greatest work that came from his brush, has secured a lame which ibe future will only serve to intensify.

Thai woik alone would entitle him to the highest place tbe Pantheon of art. No estimate of Mr. paintings can be accurate or valuable that does not take into consideration the motive that controlled the hand of the artist. In his earlier work there is a conscientious attention to details and a careful, almost laborious, working out of his subject. Later ou, as his artistic sense developed and his band grew more skillful, his Touch became bolder, and there was a manifest striving more after broad effects than after minute details.

Then in the years of his professional prime he aimed more and more to convey impressions rather than to reproduce actualiies. It is by this staudcrd of his later and more mature his power must be estimated, and in this we see unmistakable marks of the true artist and the great master. In the large painting of which now hangs directly opposite the main entrance iu the gallery of the Museum, this characteristic is particularly noticeable and makes the picture the best of its kind ever painted. Tne eye is fascinated by the immense volume of water so naturally placed in the foreground, and all care for minor, elaborate details is lost in ihe impression of terrible grandeur which is at once conveyed to the mind ard holds it as with tyrant grasp. So, too, in that wonderful painting, everything is subordinated io the single conspicuous figure which stands the foreground, with clear, pearly-white flesh, in a sort of is a true poem of aitistic inspiration, impression and sentiment, but one who attempts to find a complete and minute delineation of the accessories of the painting, will probably be disappointed.

In striving for these strong effects, the artist often exhibits a lack of force in design and a sketchiness of execution. But all is compensated by the fascinating impression ihnt Is never lacking. The at is a painting that fully illustrates ibis. Indeed there is perhaps in nearly al) of the landscape pieces delicious subtleties of color and brilliancy of light. The glows with a flood of light and in the Mill on Charles there is a refreshing tenderness of color, quiet and subdued.

River, has all the rich warmth of the tropics in its coloring and the mellow light of the ambient air the whole canvas. So, as well, with other views of Florida scenery. There is also an observable tendency in these landscapes doubtless derived from Conture, with whom Mr. Hunt studied, te in trodnce broken aud scattered lights aud fierceness ot effects. The collection is esjiecially rich in figures and portraits.

YY'liat accurate delineation of character; what graceful, refined drawing; whit mellow, rich tones, that suggest the what tender, loving color; whn liintinoiisness of light are there! Traces of Ihe early training in the sculp studio are visible in his figure pieces, which are generally carefully drawn and graceful in posture. The with with and others of like character, are revelations of beauty and fascinating sentiment. The is almost repulsive in the strong characterization of a coarse, ugly face, while nothing could be sweeter than (he joyous, laughing countenance of or the roguish eyes of the Among the more carefully and elaborately finished pictures of this class, tne full length with attracts attencion, and is a good illustration of the capabilities of ttie artist in this direction. YVoiuided Drummer aud tit the are examples of an opposite character, and seem more suggestive of the ideas embodied in them than complete. and are two delicate figure pieces where mild colors and exquisite finish are most happily blended.

The two one painted when with Millet and the other when with Couture, are interesting contrasts. In the former more attention is ptud to details, while in the latter the subordinate effects are massed and tin pronounced, aud the central figure is better in color and in treatment. The Coutoure picture is more in later sty ie. Occasionally we catch a glimpse of a soinbreness and pathos in style liiat is in striking contrast to some of the more vivid and brilliant effects to be generally seen on Mr. canvases.

Among tho portraits, that of Chief Justice Shaw is the most commanding, but those of Charles Sumner, James M. Beebe, Gov. Andrew, Judge Lowell, Abraham Lincoln, James Freeman Clarke and others display iu no less degree the well known characteristic qualities of Mr.

portrait work. Probably nothing in the whole collection will interest tlie visitor mote than the paintings which were studies for the great work at the Capitol in Albany. These are notable as evidences of tbe complete development of their author's artistic life. It would be impossible to exaggerate the vigor and hnpetHOusness exhibited in their conception and execution. There is a boldness that is almost startling, in such paintings as and Flight of Criticism is at once disarmed, and one in- sttuctively bows in reoogt iuon of the power of genius.

'llie collection of charcoal drawings and pastels are inteiesting to study in connection with the more important paintings. Many of them show the first conception of an idea which had been afterwards developed into some masterly production. Such are numerous studies of rocks, trees and scenery. There are studies of tlie on Convent Justice "Girl and others, of which the finished copy hangs in the adjoining moot. The studies for the mural decorations at Albany hang here, and are objects of great interest.

Last winch occupies a place on the wall here, is a slight sketch of a sea view at the isles of Shoals. It posse sses a melancholy interest, tu being the last work done by Mr. Hunt, having been executed only three days before his death, and constitutes a lilting tinis to the inspection of this wonderful collection of awcndciful master.

The Shoe and Leather Men Resolve in Favor or a National Bankrupt Law, and Appoint a Committee to Memorialize Congress. A special meeting af the New England Shoe and Leather Association, including a number of outside business nten interested In the trade, was held at the headquarters, No. 100 Summer street, on YVedaesday, to discuss the subject of a national bankrupt law.

There was a fair attendance, and the importance of the subject nnder discussion awakened a lively interest. The meeting was called to order by the president, Charles A. Grinnell, who made a short address, in which lie said that a national bankrupt law is an absolute necessity to the mercantile and manufacturing Interest of this country, as the State laws, with their various modes for collecting and preferences, and with homestead exemptions, varying from $300 allowed in Indiana, to or more allowed by Texas, do not give outside creditors an equal chance in the assets of a oebtor. The same mercantile interest so generally binds State with State that it is not a matter of State lines which should be a basis for the settlement of a Indebtedness. There are no State lines in trade.

YVhlle one man fails from honest necessity, ten fail from dishonest purposes, and to reach them a national law is necessary, whereby the State iaw can have no jurisdiction and preferences cannot be made. Tlie speaker mentioned a few of the im provcraent changes that should be made over the old law, as follows: Lessen the expenses of the bankrupt proceedings; assignees or trustees to be chosen by the creditors only; composition not less ilian fifty cents; parties obtaining goods under false or fraudulent representation to be punished by imprisonment; a general exemption law of $1,000, to super sede all State exemption laws. At the conclusion of the remarks the following resolutions were offered by Mr. J. Field, of Field, Thayer and were unanimously adopted YY'hereas, The repeal of the national bankrupt law thrown the collection of debts under the inrts diction of the State courts with all their conflicting laws, the mercantile aud manufacturing interest of the country deem it a pressing necessity that a modified national bankrupt law should be passed by Congress therefore, Resolved, That the shoe and leather trade of New England favor the passage of a judicious national bankrupt will use their influence to procure tlie enactment ot the same.

Resolved, that a committee of five be appointed to confer with representatives from boards of trade and other mercantile associations and to aid, it necessary, the drafting of a bill for tbe action of Congress. In presenting the resolutions Mr. Field strongly urged tbe necessity of a just and equitable national law, saying he believed that such a law could be framed as would be fair alike to debtor and creditor. Mr.B. E.

Cole, of B. E. Cole presented many of the unjust features of the present system, or lack of system, setting forth many of the various legal obstructions to justice in many States. Mr. George YV.

Mndge, of John B. Alley A review ed the history of national bankruptcy laws, and hoped that a new law, terse and simple in its terms and provisions, mlglit be enacted. J. Q. Henry, of Henry Daniels, advocated tlit adoption of the lut ions presented.

and recommended the appointment of the following gentlemen as the committee provided for by the resolutions: C. H. Grinnell, B. E. Cole, E.

HOW YOUNG WOMEN AND CHILDREN ARE KIDNAPPED AND MADE CAPTIVJSS. (From the Tokio Times, Sept. Gov.

Hennessy, on his return to the seat of his Government, will have found a subject demanding investigation, and one with which he will, no doubt, deal promptly. It is hard to imagine that i-n this instance any reforms which he may insist upon instituting will be objected to or meet with opposition on the part of the residents of Hong Kong; yet recalcitrancy, as inexplicable as it would be now in view of recent occurrences, has before been manifested in the same locality. The Daily makes the astonishing revelation that, in the island of fragrant streams a trade in human flesh and blood is so unblusbingly carried on that premiums for the recovery of runaway slaves are openly advertised. A Chinese placard, whereof a translation is made by our contemporary. has been publicly posted in the town of Victoria, oflering a reward for information leading to the restoration to her owner of a girl 14 years of age who had absconded.

The word used to designate the child is said to be an exact equivalent of the term and in no way related to that applied to oftspring placed by pa- rentsin families of better position than their own. A terrible condition of affairs is disclosed. Bauds of pirates make organized descents upon the mainland, and carry off all the young women and children of whole villages. The captives are then put upon passage boats and conveyed to Hong Kong, where the girls are drafted into brothels and the boys sold to tradesmen. It is stated that the wretched victims consider themseWes wholly in the power of their captors, and allow their bodies to be disposed of without offering any resistance.

Occasionally a case is detected by the police, and severely punished in the courts. is apparently the rule, and conviction the exception, in the case of the ruffian robbers; for there is much force in the suggestion that, as the number of prisoners charged last year before the British magistrates with abduction and sale of women and female children was no less than forty-seven, the trade must be both extensive aud profitable in order to cover the risk it involves. The Press goes ou to remark that, as persons of position and outward respectability are more or less directly concerned, one remedy might be applied, namely, to make the purchase of children as dangerous an undertaking as the sale. If there is a case in which the receiver is worse than the thief, and should incur a severer penalty, this is such a one. The attention of the Chief Justice has been attracted to the iniquitious traffic; and there is hope that Mr.

Hennessy, acting in concert Yvith the provincial authorities on the mainland, may devise some effective method to remove this new stigma front the record of a colony whose annals are unfortunately connected with the worst results of the intercourse which Great Britain has forced upon reluctant China. BOY FISHES. the genus homo hare been discovered in Morgan coanty, Ky. They are two boys named Janies and Henry Elam, aged respectively 8and 12 years. These boys talk rationally, are ordinarily intelligent, but are peculiar in having no hair on their bodies nud heads.

Their skin is covered with heavy scales like fish. At the elbows, knees and foot joints the skin is very thick, resembling the skin of an alligator. They uever perspire, but turn bright blue when they get heated. They take to water as naturally its fish, but, strange to say, swim. They dive aud crawl along the bottom with great activity and del'gbt.

They can not walk their feet cracking open, but have to wear shoes all the time. Tbeir eyes are large and round, not almond shaped, and the lids are very red. They never wink, and sloep with their eyes wide open, and are always In motion when "asleep. Their features are said to be very good and regular. Tney have to keep their bodies greased when not in the water.

When the body becomes dry the skin cracks open. Their heads are covered with scales in lieu of hair. The boys handle snakes with impunity and delight, frequently quarreling over a single reptile, but satisfied when each has one, and snakes have no antipathy to them, but follow them like a dog does his master. The mother of these monstrosities has borne eight children. The eldest, a daughter of 16, is betntiiul of form and features, and the other children are not at all peculiar.

She cannot account for freak in these cases. They are expected to be in Mt. Sterling shortly, win re our scientists will have an interesting problem to solve. FACTS AND GOSSIP.

A lively emigration to this country from the vicinity of Genoa is said to be going on. pn one day recently 1,000 persons left, aud on the next day 1,200.

Mr. Haynes, their leader, was ridden on a rail by a Corsicana mob, as a test of his claim of invulnerability, has already been related in the Sun.

Later, the Rev. Mr. Goodnight, who had resigned a fashionable Methodist pastorate at Austin to join tlie band, was legally proceeded against by his wife on a charge of insanity. But he secured a delay in the jiroceedings, aud went on preaching so eloquently that some of the people regarded him as a Christian martyr. Finally, hoYvevcr, his case has come to a trial, a decided him insane, and he has been sent to an asylum.
