The (Jerninn Campaign Clno arrived at thli point,
with eay banners, transparencies, music, and au Ira
mens turn out of members. Mr. Ditlman auapended
his remarka, and addresses ware then delivered in
German.
Mr. Kunkoly
Was the first speaker, Ue referred to tha many dis
sensions and troubles which In their own country
worked so much trouble and want of united strength;
and in thin elorioua country of their adoption, if the
Democratic party was to have success, it was known
tlint they sided with rebellion and disunion, and he
had no apprehension' that ench a result would receive
aid from bis German brethren.
Mr. SlFtTmnn
Was tho next speaker. lie said : First of all, let me
ak. have yon heard tho news from Main ? (Cries of
"Yes, yes.") Lotus, thon, pive three cheers for the
State of Maiie and its glorioua majority. (These
were piveu with a will.)
The German Republicans of Philadelphia, with a
view of nssistiue in the sncceia of the party at the
coming election, bad turned out in their strength to
take part in this magnificent demonstration, gotten
up ruder the nut-picea of tho Union League.
The Kepublican party was tho friend of law nnd
order, and eternally pledged for the perpetuity of the
Vnioii, whilo the comae of tho Democratic party, in
(Ids connection, was well known. Ho referred to tha
eminent lllncsa aud capacity of Grant aud Colfax for
the portions to which they were nominated, and
showed the necessity of every patriotic citizen giving
tl em their support in this strnjrele. To not do ao,
wc.uld he to (rive a"sistanea and aid to those who sym
pathize with rebellion and treason, rather than with
the true friend of an undivided republic,
The Tanners' Club here arrived, and were received
with loud cheers, aa were nlao tho large delegation
from the Fourteenth Ward. The Intter had with them
a wagon, On which was the inscription, "The longest
pole knocks the most persimmons." Tho First Ward
Chili followed in line, and were received with loud
cheers.
Mr. Mcgmnn concluded amidst much applause, and
was followed by
IHr. John Uorkcv,
C'hairmnn of the German Republican Club. lie ad
verted to the evils which the Democratic party had
inflicted on the country by advocating aud supporting
tehellion und secession, nnd could not believe that
his countrymen would lend their votes and influence
to place in pusillon the representatives nf such a body.
The condition of abject slavery which the I) snid
er cy favored for the Southern states could not ba
endured by the German population, and with such il
lustrious candidates aa Grant and Colfax there were
unlearn of au illustrious and glorious success. The
i Kcent victories in the States of Maine and Vermont
were referred to as an omen of that victory to be given
in reniisylvntiin, aud in which tha Germans would
take u prominent part.
Frederick Dittman, Esq.,
Tlion made a capital speech in German, interspersed
with anecdotes and happy allusious to the faithfulness
of the German element iu Philadelphia to the Repub
lican enure. Shortly after he commenced his speech
he wns obliged to desist, in consequence of the
marching and countermarching of the ward and other
organizations palt tha stand, accompanied by bands
of music
lie paid a glowing compliment to tha bravery of
General Grant, who should be remembered with gra
titude by the American people, for rescuiag the na
tion from tha evila and national borrora with which a
eucceaaful rebellion would have plunged it, had it not
been for his noble and patriotic defense. The time
had now come for testifying to him a nation's grati
tude, and this would be done in this Stale, after tha
example set by the States of Maine and Vermont.

Ot course tho Lanteme, No. 14, published in
Brussels on Saturday, is easily to be had in
London. But the demand lor it there must be
lukewarm indeed compared to what it is in
PurlH, where, in spite of all obstacles, tlie supply
is bo great, tbat almost everybody who withes
uay get a night of a copy. It is not surprising
luat M. ltochefort, having; renouueed tlie
uuenipt, to do tolerated opposition, ami know
ing that No. 14 would not be legally circulated
in France, should write stronger in tlm number
than in auy of the former one. He thus de
clares open war against tho Kmperor and bis
dynasty:
"The imprudence of the persecution against

tiou ot the Greeks who 'manipulate laws as
ihoy would cards,' (so Victor Huo), la to bury
the l.aidaiie dead or alive. J-ior the tuk I

interment ot the Lanterne. My publication must
be a source ot terrible uneasiness to you, since
it nmktb you biave the euorinous unpopularity

to put it down. You must confess, Commander
l'l'iar I, tbat f should be too simple, it while I can
coi.tinue to show jou up in your true color to
France und Kuropc, I should give up the en mo
when nil the trumps are in my hands Before
accepting martyrdom, I will prolong the com
bat. The wrestler who tcel able to go on renders
a greater service to bis cause than the victim
v beso solo heroism consists in resignation. To
suppose that any good cau be done with the men
oi Dec. 2 by stretching out your wrists for their
handcuffs, and Hiving 'Llere um I, do with me
what you will,' would be stupid indeed. Such a
course would be duly justiiiable when one teels
impotent to be of any more use. This Is not my
cate. 1 sball redouble my blows iu order to
precipitate the denouement. Ahl you sentence
me to sixteen mouths' imprisonment, llete is
my answer. I condemn you. to two years ot the
Lantirne. Your idea is to put down a journal
which frightens you; mine is to pcrecate jou
by the pcisistcuce of this journal. To give up
my pcronal liberty in pursuance of your beu
teuce of imprisonment would be to kill the Lm
trrne, whinn lives by me alone. The ouly way
to extinguish the Larv-erne would be to expel
vour glorious Emperor from the Tulleiiei.
Whenever tbat devoutly-to-bn-wished consum
mation happens I will put out the Lan'erne wl'.h

lulert.-Htiiif 1 artiriilnrit of llio Joiiraal
islK' IMm'I, Near rariH.
The Figaro gives the following details of tire
late duel near Paris, the authenticity of which
it Kuaiautees: "When the signal was given the
two advcrt-arlea approached each other with
culm step aud ste:;diast eye. Alter eyeing each
other for a minute, M. I.aiMigary attacked,
whilu bin i ppouent kept liim,elt Himplvon tho
deli um', t.nd njitnu'uvred about tlie uiimbefof
puces diMauco allowed by thu rule of the duel.
Along nnd tueigctic tet-to then lollovvod, M.
Msrairaray continuing to force the fight, and
M. Paul de Cassagnac confining himself to
parrying Lis opponents thrusts. After a succes.
eion of rapid thrusts and parries, M Llssngarav'a
toil was whipped out of his band, aud his
fingers a little disfigured. Tbe seconds here
proposed a pause of a few minutes, which was
agreed to, during which M. Lissagatay bathed
bis band In a reservoir close by the scene of the
eucoonter, which was at Vesinet. Time having;
been called, as lieh't Lift would say, M. Lleaa
garay again commenced a vigorous attack. Both
parties up to thta time bad preserved tbe utmost
sang froid and prudence. The game of M. Paul
de Cassagnac was evidently to tire out his oppo
nent, and then make his ooup. Jive minutes
pasted away, and nothing new loos place In tbe
tactics of tbe duellists, when suddenly M. Paul
de Cassagnao made a thrust towards the belt of
M. Lissiignray. The latter, however, parried the
coup most brilliantly. This appeared to please
M. Paul de Cnsisguac so much that he cried out
politely, 'I d n't tbink, sir, f ever saw such a
splendid parry as that.' Nevertheless, M. Lisa
paray, who bad all along been forcing the
fight, now became visibly fatigued, and at
the end of another pas he lost bis foil
for tbe second time. He himself, by tho
force of the contre coup, slipped down and rolled
over on the ground. Another pause of n few
minutes here Intervened, and M. Paul de Cas
saguac, on tbe permission of the seconds, toot
a draft of water from the lap of the reservoir;
M. Lissngaray likewise refreshed himself, aud
bathed his arms and bands. The third 'round'
now commenced. It was ca.iy to see that M.
Lissagaray was very much weakened; h's thumb
was swollen, aud it was with dilliculty he.
grasped his foil. FecliDg his strength dimi
nishing, he cripd out to his opponent, 'But why
don't jou attack me, sir? It is evident you want
to tire me out.' M. Paul de Cassugnac replied
by a gesture which seemed to say! 'Thai's my
allair.' Alter a lew seconds, M. Paul de Cas
sagnac changed his tactics, and went iu for a
vigorous attack. M. Llesagaray, however, had
no longer the strength to parry his adversary's
coups, aud in a short time received a deep
wound in the right breast. Tbe seconds held
him in their arms until the arrival of a
doctor. At tbis moment M. Paul de Cnssagnac
advanced towards bitn and said: 'Will you
allow me to shake your hand?' 'No, sir,' re
plied M. Lissagaray. 'And yet,' urged tbe other,
it is only a question of bravery.' M. Lissa
garay again replied, 'With me, sir, it is a ques
tion of piinclple aud political dienitv.' 'I re
gret it very much,' added M. Paul de Cassagnac,
as be turned away, 'tor I should have bee
glad to shake you by the hand.' At this instant
SI. Lissagaray fainted away, and, as the wound
did not bleed, the doctor, who had by this time
arrived, applied leeches. When he returned to
himself, M. Lissagaray wished to recommence
tbe combat; and it was only on tbe urgent ad
vice ot his seconds that he consented to be taken
to his hotel. Tbe wounded man, according to
latest accounts, is doing well, but he will be
lighting again as eoon as he is sufficiently
recovered."
MEYERBEER'TcOMPOStTIONS.
De Btiry's Lawsuit Derided In Favor of
(he Composer's Heirs Ex tract l'roiu
Meyerbeer's Will.
The suit brought by M. Blaze de Bury, a dra
ma'ic author, against the widow and heirs of
Meyerbeer, the musical composer, alluded to a
few dajs Blnea in our Paris correspondence, has
just been decided before tho civil tribunal of
Paris. The plaintiff had some years back
written a drama, entitled 4,Th Youth, of
Goethe," one act of which was to be played
with a musical accompaniment, which Meyer
beer ucdertook to compose. The latter had
completed his share ot the work, but proposed
to modify some of the combinations, when he
died, leaving a will ot which the following is an
extract:
For a long time past I have been In tbe babit
of making notes, on a special music book, of
every inspiration which comes to my mind and
pleases me, either when I am sitting at the
piano or at any other time. I entirely forbid the
placing of these fragments in the hands of a
living composer for him to make a new work
out of them, or to complete my unfinished com
positions, and afterwards give them as my post
humous works; tor such a fate has too otten
belallen other artists, and aamaired considerably
their future glory. My family docs not require
any such resources. It would be equally painful
to me if, by neglect, these music books fell into
Eomc treacherous hands, and my thougnts were
used by other musicians unier their own
names. My express and positive desire is
that, a few days after tbis will is opeued,
the above-name i books (Qve of them mi
nutely described) bo removed from my other
papers by my wife and executors, and sealed,
and carefully preserved In a special bos. If,
some day, one of my grandchildren evinces real
taste for music, the books containing my musical
thoughts are to be delivered up to him, as well
as the diary kept by myself since the end of 1810.
Mo one, without exception, must be allowed to
look over the aforesaid books, or my unpublished
compositions, or my diary. If none of mv
grandchildren are endowed with a taste for
music of which my executors are to be solo
judges tbeee books, compositions, and diary
must bo destroyed. This, ba it understood, is
only to be done when my three daughters are no
more, and when my grandsons have attained an
aes enabling my executors to judge with cer
tainty oi their aptitudes. I inflict no penalty in
the case of non-accomplishment of the desire
expressed above concerning my manuscripts,
