1 TUB DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPIJ PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1870. A SILVER VEDDIXO EP1 Til A LAMIUM. The following graceful epithalftmlnm, by the Rev. W. J. Htevenson, pastor of the Metho dist Episcopal Church at Twentieth and Spring Garden streets, was read a few even ings ago at the silver wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas W. Trice. As a pleasing memo rial of a happy occasion, and as a poem of merit in itself, we commend this epithalaminm to the attention of our readers: lie comes ! the frost-clad King, Whose robes the North winds weave When summer birds are on the wing, And flowers take their leave. Fields standing bleak and bare, Stripped of their golden grain; And naked woods and air Sweeping, so keen, o'er plain, Eld ns, in time, prepare For winter's icy reign. We shrink not from December day. With sky alternate light and grey; Now flashing with Aurora's beams, Then dark'ning over frozen streams; With falling snow and pelting hail, And blinding sleet and furious gale. December brings the joyous time When round us rings the Christmas chime; When friend greets friend in sweet accord, On natal day of our dear Lord. So meet we here, on this glad night, In friendship's name, 'mid festal light; Now, gathering closer, form a ring, And each one hearken while I sing. 'Twas five and twenty years ago, An anxious youth and trembling maid, With clasped hands, in plighted faith, Before the altar knelt and prayed. How true their faith, how firm that clasp, This happy scene will now attest; For here that wedded pair await Ihe greeting ot each entering guest. O marriage bells of forty-five, Your echoes never, never cease; They sound again across the years, In Christmas songs of holy peace. 'Tis Seventy that celebrates A silver anniversary night, With open mansion, crowded rooms, And windows all agleam with light. The maiden who devoutly prayed For grace to keep the promise made: "I'll love Thomas more Than e'er wife loved before" Is matron grown, whose smiling face Declares possession of that grace. The slender youth who vow did make To cherish, love, and ne'er forsake: "I'll shield Lucy from all harm ; I'll defend her with strong arm" Is present proof that one's estate May increase with his breath and weigh'.. But, 'mid the merriment that reigns, Rise feelings of hallowed praise To Him who sendcth all good gifts For the blessings of other days. WTclcome. fond memory ! with your Train of the long-lost forms and faces; Of mercies clad in sorrow's garb, And the dear old scenes and places. Our friends have journeyed, hand in hand, Along a smooth and quiet way; No romance casts its fitful glare Around the life reviewed to-day. '"So here we gaze on Christmas home On honest toil and sweet repose; And charity that helps the poor, While shedding tears o'er human woes. Now pray their past may promise be Of years within the future's bold; Of purest love, and steadfast faith, And peace that never waxes old. May choicest blessings still abide Beneath their roof and 'round their hearth Their Silver deepen into Gold, Their Diamond wedding sparkle forth ! But hark ! their children join our Prayer, their voices sound as seven Tln-ee here and one on Western plain, While three call down from heaven. Oh ! blessed home before the throne, Our resting-plaag when life shall end; Tby benediction crown this scene, And on these waiting hearts descend. NBWS SUXVIBXAB.'X'. City Affairs. Margaret Colligan, aged forty years, resid ing in the rear of 018 South street, was badly burned last evening about the body and arms by the explosion of a coal oil lamp which she was filling with oil. Her husband, while at tempting to extinguish the flames, was also severely burned abont the hands. Mrs. Colligan was admitted to the Pennsylvania Hospital. The alarm of fire last evening about seven o'clock was occasioned by the slight burning of the dwelling at southeast corner of Nineteenth and Poplar streets, caused by the explosion of a coal oil lamp. Mrs. Hersh, aged sixty-eight years, occupying the second story of the house, retired to ber room a few minutes previous to the discovery of the fire. On entering the room . she was found lyiug on the floor wrapped in flames. Her daughter exdeavored to render her some assistance, out in doing so she was badly burned about the hands. Medical aid was sum moned, but it was thought that Mrs. Hersh's injuries would terminate fatally. While theVlgllant Engine was proceeding to the above fire, a collision took place at Sixth and Race streets between the engine and car No. 20, of the Fifth and Sixth Streets Railway line, injuring one of the horsos attached to the car so badly that it was found necessary to kill the animal. The hind axle of the engine was broken by the collision. Michael F. Belrn, who keeps a saloon on Eighth street, below Chcsnut, was murderously assaulted last night by one John Beam.

Yesterday morning a row of eleven two- story frame buildings on Utlca avenue and Bergen street. Brooklyn, was destroyed by fire, makinir twenty-two families homeless. Lively times have already commenced at I Jarribburg relative to the control ot the Legis lature, and the contest Is likely to be exceed ingly animated before the body gets into thor ouirn workinsr order. Advices from Santiago de Cuba are to the effect that on the loth Inst, three hundred 1q mirffents. including forty netrresses armod with cutlasses, sacked and burned Socapa, a fishing village four rones irom that city. Hotels seem to bo particularly unfortunate from fire just now, and among the latest re ported burned are the Missouri Avenue House of East St. Louis, the Llndsey House of Zv ieskl, Ohio, and the Marshall House, of Frank lin, Pa. The Marshall House, situated at the west end of the Wire Bridge over the Allegheny river at Franklin, Pa., took fire yesterday noon, and the flames communicating to the bridge, that structure was soon destroyed. A number of lives were lost, and several persons were latity injured. uunorriAiM aitaihs. L AST N I U 1 1 T'H II K4 PATC II BS. TIIE HOMBARDMENT OF PilUS AWI THE CAP Tl'RK OF FOIIT AVRON DESPATCH FROM KING WILLIAM TUB SPANISH TROUBLES. General Peltingeas has arrived at Havre fro la Bordeaux to superintend the defense of the city. He was received enthusiastically by both the troops and the citizens. A despatch from Besancon says General Fres kow has Issued an order confining the popula tion to the right bank of the river Doubs. Despatches from Stuttgardt and Darmstadt announce the ratification of the federal treaties by the Chambers of Wurtemburg and Hesse. 1 he entire number of French troops is esti mated at 750,000. Bourbakl's command is charged especially with the duty of revictualling Paris, and has already on hand a vast amount of live stock and provisions for the purpose. At the proper moment this army will make a des perate effort to join Chanzy's forces, and re unite with the Army of the Loire, which will then, with great energy, push on for Paris. A Prussian despatch reports that Colonel BottenEtcin, commanding a detachment of six companies of foot, two squadrons of cavalry, and two guns, was surrounded by the French near Montoiro. After a desperate fight he cut his way out, losing only 100 men and taking 240 prisoners. London, Dec. 30 Evening. The conference on the Eastern question has been indefinitely postponed, as Franco has refused to take part, and the absence of one of the signatarics of the treaty of Paris would render the meeting use less. The Germans invested the fortress of Peronne, in the Department of Somme, on Wednesday, after some sharp fighting. London, Dec. 30 Philip Ilardwick, the English architect, is dead. The Federal treaties with Baden, Hesse, and Wurteniberg have been ratified. The Upper Chamber of the Bavarian Diet passed the treaty by nearly a unanimous vote. London.

Frederick Charles is con centrating at Orleans. There is a fresh report that propositions have been made for peace to Gambclta. Accounts received here show that both the Prussian and French tea-ops suffer terribly from the cold. Strong reinforcements have been sent forward to all points to replace the French sol diers thus incapacitated. Vu?t quantities of material calculated to increase the comfort of the troops have also been sent to the front. It appears that the Prussians committed excesses at Orleans and Blois because the inhabi tants who had been ruined were not able to meet their requisitions. At Orleans the Prus sians threaten to take away as hostages fifty prominent citizens, unless 600,000 francs are paid for the maltreatment of a Prussian soldier. Lille, Dec. tio. liourbakl and Chanzy have resumed the offensive. Uhlans are scouring the country between Donar, Cambral, and Arras.

Information obtained from papers seized shows that for the assassination of Prim the conspiracy was extensive. The members were sworn to exterminate the enemies of a republic. The murder of Prim was opposed by some on the ground that nothing should be attempted until the arrival of Aosta, but the ad vocates of immediate action prevailed. Lets were drawn for the selection of three persons to undertake the killiug of Prim. It is said the Ministry of War are in possession of proof identifying the actual assassins, but have not yet succeeded in making their arrest. To-day there were some expressions of indignation at the attempt, but the people generally show sul len indifference. There is great activity at the War Office. Couriers were despatched to Barcelona and other points with 6tringent orders to military commandants. There are rumors of a union of Carlists and renublicans aeralnst foreign kings. The Ministry contemplate changing the pro gramme lor tne route oy wmcn me uewiy elected kine will make bis entry into Madrid, in view of the attempt on the life of Prim, and to bailie the conspirators should further assassi nations be designed.

The San Francisco papers announce the return to that city of a boy, not yet quite nine years of age, who has travelled alouo all the way to Chicago and back, without either a pass or money.
