ABTEMUS ON His Latest in Punch. At% prusort, Dnatt Sln—Yon didn't get a instructiv article =from my pen last week on account of my nervas sistiut havin underwent a drefile shock. I got caught in a brief shine of sun, and it utterly upsot me. I was welkin in'Regent Street one,. day last week, enjOyin your rich black fog and brae ingra ins when all at oncet h he sanust out and actooally shone for nearly half an hour steady. 'I acted promptly, I called a cab arid` told the 'driver to run his hoes at a fritefal rate of speed to my lodgins,' but it wasn't of no avale. I had orfal cramps, my appy-. tite left me, and my pults went down to JO degrees below zero. But by careful nussiu I shall no doubt recover speedy, if the pre sent sparklin and axileratin weather con timers. (All of the foregoin is sarcasum.) It's a singllar lack, bull never sot eyes on your excellent British Mooseum till the other day. I've sent a great many peple there, as also to your genial Tower of Lon don however. It happend thusly: When one of my excellent countrymen jest arrived in London would come and see me and dis play a inclination to cling to me too lengthy, thus showin a respect for me which I teel I do not deserve, I would sugjest a visitto the Mooseum and Tower. The Mooseum would ockepy him a day at leest, and the Tower another. Thus Iv'd derived considerable peace and comfort from. them noble edifisses, and I hope' they will long continuer to grace your imetroplis. There's my ' frea Col. Larkins, from Wisconsin, who I regret to say understands the Jamaica question, and wants to talk with melthou it ; I sent him to the Tower four days ago, and he hasn't got through with it yo.t. He likes it very much, and he writes me tha he can't never thank me sufficient for di radix', him to-so interestinu bildin, >I wri hiin mot to mention it. The Col. says' it is fortnit we, live in a intellectooal age which wouldn't-Countenance such infamous things pis (featured in this Tower. I'm aware that it is hishiteble to compliment this age, bat I ain't so clear that the Col. is altogether right. This is a very respectable age, bat it's pretty easily riled; and oonsiderin upon how slight a provyeation we'who live in it go to cuttin each other's throats, it may perhaps be doubted whether our intelleoks is so much maasiver than our ancestors' intelleoks was, afterall. I talus ride outside with the caiman. L am of humble parentage, but I have (if you will permitme to say so) the spirit of the eagle, which chafes when shpt up in a four wheeler, and I feel much eagler when I'm in the open air. So on the mornin on which I went to the Mooseum I lit a pipe, and, can't-I a cab; I told the driver to take me there as quick as his Arabian charger could go. ' The driver was under the influence of beer, and narrerly escaped runttin over a aged female in the match trade, whereupon I remonstratid. with him. I-- said ; "That poor old woman may be the only mother of a young man like you." . Then throwing considerable pathos into my voice, I said, "You have a mother?" He said, "You lie!" I got down and called another cab, but said nothin to this driver about his parents. The British Mooseum is a magnificent free show for the people. It iskept open for the benefit of all. The humble costermonger, who traverses the busy streets with a cart containin all kinds of vegetables, such as carrots,turnips, etc., and drawn by a spirited jackass—he can go thehlooseum and reap benefits there from as well as the lord of high degree. "And this," I said, "is the British Moo senni! These noble walls," I continnerd, punching them with my umbreller to see if the masonry was all right--but I wasn't al lowd to finish my enthoosiastic remarks,for a man with a gold band on his hat said, in a hash voice, that I must stop pokin the walls. I told him I would do so by all .means. "You see," I said, taking hold of the tassel which waved from the man's belt and drawin him close to me in a confiden tial way," "You see, I'm lookin round this Mooseum, and if I like it I shall bay it." instead of larfin hardly at these remarks, which was made in a goakin spirit, the man frowned darkly and walked away. I first visited the stuffed animals, of which gorillers interested me most. These simple minded monsters live in Afriky, and' are believed to be human beim to a slight ex tent, altho' they are not allowed to vote. In this department is one or two superior giraffes. I never woulded were a bird, but I've sometimes wished I was a giraffe, on account of the long distance from his mouth to his stnmmuck. Hence if he loved beer, one mugfiil would give him as much enjoyment while goin down as forty mug fuls would ordinary persons. And be wouldn't get intoxicated, which is a beastly way of amusin oneself, I mast say. I like a little beer now arid then, and when the teetotallers inform us, as they frekently do, that it is vile stuff, andi that even the swine shrink from it, I say it only shows that the swine is a ass who don't know what's good; but to pour gin and brandy down one's throat EA freely as though it were fresh milk, is the most idiotic way of goin' to the devil that I know of. I enjoyed myself very much lookin at the Egyptian mummys, the Greek vasis, etc., but lt,oceurd to me there was rayther too many "Roman antiquitys of a uncertin date." Now, I like the British Mooseum, as I said afore, but when I see a lot of erthen jugs and pots stuck up on shelves, and all "or a uncertin date," Pm at a loss to zackly deternain whether they are a thousand years old or was bought recent. can cry like a child over a jug one thousand years of age, especially, if it is a Roman jug; but ajug of a uncertin date doesn't overwhelm me with emotions. Jugs and pots of a uneartin age is doubtless vallyable property, but, like debentures of° the London, Chatham and Dover Railway, a man doesn't want too many of them. I was debarred out of the great readin room. A man told me I must apply by letter for admission, and that I must get somebody to testify that I was respectable. I'm a little 'fraid I shan't get in thtfe. Seein a elderly , gentleman;with a benever /ent-looking face, near by, I ventured to ask him if would certify that I was respecta ble. Re said he certainly would not, but he would put me in chtrge of a policeman, if that would do me any good. A thought struck me. "I refer you to Air. Punch," I said. "Well," said a man, who had listened to my application,"You Mpg done it now! You stood some chance before." I will get this infamous wretch's name before you go to press, so you can denounce him in the pre sent number of your excellent journal. The statute of Apollo is a pretty slick statute. A young yoeman seemed deeply impresst with ft. He viewed it with silent admiration. At home, in a beautiful rural districks where the daisy sweetly blooms, he would be s ivearin in a horrible manner at his bullocks, and whacking 'em over the head with a hayfork; but here, in the pre sence of Art, he is a changed bein. I told the attendant that if the British na tion would stand the" expense of 'a marble bust of myself,l would willingly sit to some talented sculpist. ".1. feel," I said, "that this is a dooty`l owe to posterity." He said it was hily prob'l, but he was inclined to think that tne British nation wouldn't care to enrich the Mooseum with a bust of me, altho' he ventured to think that if I paid for one myself it would be accepted cheerfully by Madame Tussaud, who will give it a prom'nent position in her Chamber of Hor- I rors. The thankt him youn kin g dly man was very polite, and . After visitin the Refreshment room and partakin of- half a chicken 'of a uuncertin age,' 410 the Roman antifluitys I have pre visly spoken of, I prepared to leave. As I passed through the animal room I observed SEE MICTSEIIM with pane that a bi3nevolint person was ur gin the stnfft elephant to accept a cold muf fin, but I did not feel called to remonstrate with him, 'any more than I did with two young persons of diff'rent sexes who had retired- behitd the rynosserhoss to- squeeze each other's hands. In fack, I rayther ap proved-of-the latter- proceedin,- for it carrid roe back •to the sunny spring of my life. I'm in the shear and yeller leaf now, but I don't forgit the time when to squeese my Betsy's hand sent a - thrill through me like follin off the roof of a two-story. house; I never- 'squozed.; that gentle hand without wanting to do some more, and feelin that if, did me good, Dediestion of tbe Soldiers' Orphans' Home at:Gettysburg. `G - Errygnuka PA., Nov. 20.—At 2 o'clock this afternoon the National-Orphans' Home stead was dedicated to its future use, and the occasion was'an interesting one. The Efoniestead is situated on the Balti morepike, a, continuation of one of the principal streets of Gettysburg, half a mile from the centre of the town, and close by the National Cemetery for soldiers who fell at the battle of Gettysburg. The building was formerly, a large and commodious • residence; which was pur chased by the Homestead Committee, and so altered and improved that it now presents a very handsome and attractive appearance, being, in fact, the most imposingedifice is _the neighborhood. -It.faceil, and is situated a few yards from the. famous Cemetery Ridge, at the point-where the 11th Army Corps,-under` General' 0. 0. Howard, took its position' during the great and decisive battle of Gettysburg. It is contemplated to erect a much larger and splendid edifice on the piece of 'ground occupied by Rickett's battery during the battle, very near, the present Homestead, and which will accom modate between four hundred and five hun dred orphans of soldiers. - The idea of this retreat for soldiers' -or phans was conceived soon after the dedica tion of the National Cemetery at Gettys btirg, by Dr. J. F. Bourne, of Philadelphia, and the work has been Eiteactily progress ever since, until the Association have aeon mialated nearly $27,000 to further its objects. There are now twenty-seven children being provided for at the 'Homestead, girls and bow. They will receive a good education free of expense to themselves- or relatives, and, When they reach the proper age, will ' be placed in a- - position to make their own way through the world. Twenty-four of - the orphans are from Pennsylvania,but,' ultimately, it is ex pected that all the States of the Union will be represented. The children are neatly clothed,the girls in light blue merino frocks, black sacks, and neat hats; the boys hf fall suits of dark blue, with army buttons and glazed cape; their ages range from five to fourteen years. The plan of the institution embraces branch houses in different sec tions of the country, for the now-un-cared for orphans of the fallen soldiers.

The Committee having the Homestead in charge have received the bulk of the funds in their possession thus far from the dif ferent Sunday Schools throughout the Union; over three hundred having contri buted towards the object, representing some six or eight different States. Gettysburg wore a sort of holiday appear ance this afternoon. Dnrfng the dedication flags were flying from the public buildings and a number of private dwellings of the town, and numbers of people were in the streets. Shortly before two o'clock a procession was formed on the main street, consisting of the Presidents, Faculty and students of the Colleges here, all the Sunday School children, -a number of associations, and a great many invited guests. The procession,which was several squares in length, marched up the Baltimore pike to the Homestead, headed by the Gettysburg brass band, and entered the grounds of the institution. - • A large crowd was alridy assembled iu these grounds, many of whom were from Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, and other cities, and among them were many ladies. The exercises took place on the porch of the building, the audience being assembled in the open air on the lawn or playground connected with it. Dr. J. F, Bourne pre sided. It was fully expected that Genera) Grant, General Meade, General Howard, Governor Curtin, Bishop Simpson, and a number of other notables would be present, but none of them made their appearance. The ceremonies opened with a fervent prayer by Rev. J. W. Mears, of Philadel phia, after which the choir engaged for the occasion sang "My Country, 'tis of Thee." This was followed by an address by the Rev. Dr. Read, of Philadelphia, after which the Inauguration Ode, composed by Mrs Isabella James, of Philadelphia, was sung. Then followed an address by the Rev. Dr. Day, of the Theological Seminary, Gettys burg, a very fine discourse, and which treated of the principles and objects of the Homestead. The exercises were closed with a benedic tion from Rev. Mr. Smith, of Chambers burg. In the evening a large meeting was held in Grace Church, and addresses on the ob jects of the Homestead were delivered by the Rev. Dr..N6wton,,Rev. Dr. Mears, Rev. Dr. Warner and others. Mexican Affairs. Minister Romero has received the follow ing: •• VERA. Cituz, Nov. I.—Maximilian has not sailed yet, nor is it likely he will sail soon, as the French would not allow him to leave until he signs a formal abdication. A little indtscretion of the commander of the Austrian frigate, Dandolo, has been the Mae of this. When Maximilian left Mexico, Gen, Bazaine thought that he came to Ori zaba mostly on a little excursion, as he had gone to Cuernavaca and other places. On ithe day before yesterday, the com mander of the Dandolo received, at mid night,' a despatch from Maximilian ordering THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.--PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 21,1866 Trooly yours, ' " ARTEMIS WARD. him to have his frigatejeady for yesterday at five o'cleck, P. M. at which time Maxi expected to b e: here and wanted to sail at once. As soon as the Austrian com mander received this despatch, he called on M. Peyron, the French commander, to take leave of him, communicating to him the despatch he had received and asking of him orders for Trieste. M. Peyron sent at once this information to General Bazaine, who despatched instructions by telegraph to the French commanders at Orizaba, Cordova and Vera Crnz, not to allow Maximilian to escape, and addressed himself to the Arch duke, stating that he.knew.his plan to fly from Mexico, but that he could not be per mitted to do so unless he should formally abdicate. The reason of this conduct is that, should Maximilian leave without a formal abdica tion, the position of the French would be very difficult and ridiculous; while if he ab dicated in their favor, they will be released from their engagements towards him. It is thought that Maximilian will be obliged to return to the city of MeXico, and submit to Bitzaine's terms. : g. ore g e • • e e g BALTIMORE, Nov. 20,--The procession was formed - with Junior Lodges in advance. Among the lodges from other cities were subordinate lodges - fit:lU Washington,Ales.- andria, Norfolk, Petersburg, Lynchburg, Winchester, Shepperdatown, and other points in Virglida, and among the comman deries of Knights Templars there were those from Philadelphia,` New 'York, New Jersey, Louisville, Ky., and -Washington. As soon as the procession had gathered _round the site of the new 'temple, and the positions assigned to the various lodges had been taken up, the Grand Lodge of Mary land was opened with the ceremonies ap pointed for such occasions, the Moat Worthy Grand Master, John Coates, directing the exercises, which consisted of the usual im pressive ritual, including the chanting of several hymns written for the occasion. After the stone had been finally adjusted, and formally declared to be a foundation stone, well formed, true and trusty, the Grand Master, giving three knocks upon the stone, said: Know all of you who hear me, we pro claim ourselves free and lawful ' Masons, true to the lawErof our country, professing to fear God and to confer benefits on man kind. We practice universal benevolence towards all. We have secrets concealed from the eyes of men which may not be re vealed to any but Masons, and which no one has vet discovered. They are, how ever' lawful and honorable. 'Unless our craft was good and oar calling honest, these secrets would not have existed for so many generations,nor should we have had so many illustrious personages as brethren of our Order, alwitys ready to sanction oar proceedings and contribute to oar welfare. We are assembled; in the broad face of open day, under the canopy of heaven, to build a temple for Masonry. May God prosper our handiwork as it shall most please Rim May this temple become a place wherein just and' upright Masons may practise benevolence, promote harmony and culti vate brotherly love, until they shall all as semble in the Grand Lodge above, where the world's great Architect lives atntreigns forever. Then following the singing of Psalm, "0 praise ye the Lord." The ceremonial was then concluded by pouring oorn, wine and oil upon the atone, the Grand Master making a solenin invo cation at each libation, and concluding as follows; "May corn, wine and oil, and all the necessaries of life abound among men throughout the world, andmay the blessing of Almighty God be upon this undertaking, and may the structure here to be erected be preserved to the latest ages in order that it may promote the humane purposes for which it is designed." The Grand Master then presented the im plements to the architect, saying: "To you, brother architect, are confide4l the implements of operative masonry, with the fullest confidence that, by your skill and taste, a fabric shall arise which shall add new lustre to our honored State. May it endure for many ages a monument of the liberality and benevolence of its fotinders." Then, after the performance of appropri ate music by the band, J. H. B. Latrobe, Esq., delivered the oration. The orator gavea very learned and highly interesting historical account of the Order and the development of Masonry. After citing the various opinions and authorities as to the antiquity of the Order, going before the Christian era, the speaker said that, leaving the extremest claims of many of the brotherhood, what seemed to be gene rally regarded as authentic history carries the institution back to the tenth century. In the year 924, Atheistan, King of Eng land, confirmed the Constitution of the So ciety of Architects, and the charter, it is said, is still preserved at York. He next referred to the introduction of Masonry into the United States fn.l73o,and concluded by setting forth the principle.: the Order inculcated—charity to all man kind. The gavel used by the Grand Master at the ceremonies was the same need by Wash ington when, as Gran he laid the corner-stone of the Capitol at Washington, in 1793. It is made of stone and capped with gold. To-night the Grand Lodge of Maryland give a banquet to the visiting members of the Grand Lodges from other States, at Con cordia Hail. The elegance of the entertain ment may be inferred from the fact that it will cost ten thousand dollars. The price of tickets is twenty-five dollars each. -Among the Commanfteries of the Knights remplars in the procession, was the Gram; Commandery of Pennsylvania, the oldest in the United States, also the following from the same State:—De Molay, Parke, Crusade; also, York Commandery, from New York and Malta Commandery of Binghampton, New York. President Johnson, after dining with Gov. Swann, returned to Washington this even ing. Saab American Affairs. Rear Admiral Godon, commanding the South Atlantic Squadron, under the date or Rio Janeiro, Cot. 8, reports to the:Navy De partment that the latest advices from the seat of war in South' America are anything but favorable to the Allies. They captured Fort Cumsia some time since, with heavy loss, and then prepared for an attack on Lumpali, a strong point on the route to Hu melte. The new ministry have urged the attack, which proved most disastrous to the allied forces. They acknowledge a loss of 5,000 in killed and wounded, but the ac counts are Brazilian, - and it is thought that ten thousand will "'prove nearer the truth. Gen. Flores, the President of Uruguay, has withdrawn from the front with the remain der of the Uruguayan army,about five hun dred men. The ironclad squadron has been very roughly handled, and Admiral Godon says that the last events in the field confirm him in the belief that the Allies will not have control of Paraguay for some time to come. The United States steamer Nypsic had ar rived at Rio Janeiro from Pernambuco on the 6th of October. The Lackavranna sailed for the Straits of Magellan and the Pacific Squadron. The Shawmut was to leave for the United States on the 10th of October. New York Women's . Eights Convention. ALBANY, Nov. 20.—The Women's Rights Convention met in Tweedle Hall to-day. The attendance was very small. Lucy Stone Blackwell presided, and urged the advocates of equal rights to make common cause with the blacks.:. Mrs. Stanton, Fred. Douglass, Parker Pillsburvand others took part in the proceedings. Resolutions were adopted strongly in favor of giving the right of suffrage to all, without regard to sex or color, and recommending the- election .of women• as delegates to . the, approaching Constitutional Convention In this State.

Worth's message yesterday to the Legislature, after discussing -purely local-affairs and their hopeful aspect,"then declares; 'that 'laW and order exist oat all points; civil authorities are adequate punka's:mein to all Offender's; that the courts -- are operating effectively; that justice is mated to all colors. He op pcses negro , suffage, the Howard amend ment, and recommends that the Northern States encourage the diffusion of freedmen in their midst. He says that everything seems to invite emigration to the dominant States, but most of them are too poor to pay the expenses of moving. This difficulty may be overcome by diverting appropria tions to sustain the Freedmen's Buteau to defray the expenses of those who may choose to move. Each one will choose a State or Territory to which he wanted to go. When left foie arid aided to go where they may think their condition bettered, no ground will be left for further sectional strife as to their govern ment—ciyil and military authorities har monious. The balance of the message was devoted to the suppression of crime and pauperism, taking care of the poor, the apprenticing of negro children, and the election of United States Senator, the military academy and the like.
