    THE IIEAVENLY MARRIAGE.
When I retorted
With Oriel from our lonely mountain watch
To that fast-falling vale ol Paradise,
Who first of all those white:robed multitudes
Should greet me, but my own, my sainted wifo
Her eplrit, like mine, .dismantled of tho flesh,
VIM radiant with the likeness of her Lord;
Our infant cherubs clinging'to her skirts,
The mother with the children; (how not ao

Had
deem not by that name, her soul
Had not put off its earthly, and put on
Iteireavenly. In a moment I was 'ware
She was forever, altogether mine;
Notspouse, but what is symbolized by spouse :
,Notconsort, but what consort typifies;
The Meaning now made fact; the ideal here
Transparent in our real unity,
A reflex glory and image of myself,
An helpmeet for me In the house of God.
it(ir et in her loveliest on earth
Of trod or bloom, appeared she lovely as now,
Nor ever bad I loved her as this hour,
When, banging on my neck as she was wont,
Shelooked up with her tender, pleading face,
And sobbed for very ecstacy, not grief,
ifidy husband!" This was all, bat this was

encouragement will be extended to those who
have undertaken this matter. All information

Beefing on Behalf of Free Cuba.
A meeting of the citizens of Philadelphia was
held last evening at the Academy of Music to ex
press sympathy with the Cubans, who are now
struggling to tree themselves from the Govern
ment of Spain. The attendance was very large,
the entire house, with the exception of th - e upper
tier, being filled. Many ladles were among the
audience. A large Cuban flag was displayed from
one of the proscenium boxes. A fine band of
tousle was in attendance.
John Price Wetherill, Esq., called the meeting
to order. Be said:
I ant sure I need bet say to-night, ladies and
gentlemen, that the great heart of Philadelphia
is indeed alive to the importance of this meeting;
and, from this vast assemblage, I am sure each
and all of nit feel, feel truly, feel heartily, that
our sympathies are with the patriots of Cuba, and
that we feel, and that we are assured, that Cuba
will be free! I Applause.] When I think of the
cause of the patriots, and reflect upon their
treatment, I am sure each and all of us will give
them a heartfelt sympathy. When 1 know,
also, the cruelty of their oppressors; when I
recollect the vindictive order that the Spanish
government issued a little while ago, to the effect
hat every man under fifteen years of age found
outside of his home shall be shot; and when I
recollect that every house without a white flag
shall be razed, if the hearts of the people of
Philadelphia have any sympathy within them, I
am sure they will arouse it in behalf of the Cu
bans: I Applause.] I cannot say another word
now. My duty to-night le simply to open this
vast assembly, and for that purpose, I move
that Mr. Theodore Cuyier take the chair. I_Ap-,

Mr. Wetherlll now announced the following

Mr. Cuyler tow arose and said:
Ftllow-Citizens of Philadelphia—Sympetby with
an oppressed people, struggling to throw off the
yoke of an oppressor, is an instinct of the Ame
ican heart. Whether it be due to the memory
GI the heroic struggle of our own fathers in
our own country, or whether it be due to the in
tlui r.ces of our own free institutions, that sym
roily is natural to the American heart, and it
a ill express itself in heroic works; and if the
rinse be a proper one, and justify it, it will ex
press itself in vigorous actions. The people of a
beautiful island of the sea, close to our Southern
borders,are to-day struggling heroically to throw
off the yoke of an oppressor which insults them,
Ind which oppressor is four thousand miles away
—a Power which, giving them nothing in the way
•4 protection, exacts everything from them in the
lay of tribute—a Power which gains from them
•Iy an oppressive exaction, yielding nothing tu
return, und, until recently, has given the result: ,
oh the taxation to a bloated populace which is
ripe to rottenness and fast dropping off. We are
inet here to-night for the purpose of expressing
itur empathy with this people in their heroic
it ugh: for liberty, and the presence of this vast
multitude of people, and the presence of these
'air ladies, demonstrate the fact that the sympa
hies of this vast assemblage, as by a common in
piration, show how deep, how earnest how sin
tre is our sympathy with this people in their
heroic struggle. [Applause.
We are here for the purpose of stating that by
a law which Is Just as sure asd inevitable as the
law of grayitation,everything tends to the United
States from the pole to the Gulf with an absolute
certainty. We can pot disregard the fact that by
a sure and Inevitable law, Canada, ild.extue and
Cuba will be free.Applause.]
He concluded by apologizing for detaining the
Audience so long.
John Goforth, Esq.,
in presenting the resolu
tions, said they covered the ground so fully that
it was unnecessary for him to preface thorn with
Any remarks. He then read them as follows :
herecm, The Western World, for more than three
centuries, has been the asylniun and refuge for the poor

The reading of the resolutions created the
greatest enthusiasm. and in many instances
drew forth long continued applause. The reso
lutions were unanimously adopted.
Gen. Joshua T. Owen was then introduced.
He commenced by alluding to the first groat
Revolutionary war, when America first achieved
her independence, the war in defence of her
rights, and the rebellion, when Americans found
ft necessary to make war among themselves.
Should the people of the United States now fail
to do their plain duty, they would sink beneath
insignificance and become odious.
II any man in public position should be unwill
leg to aid the stricken people in theiremergency.
he would be unworthy the confidence of a free
people. We, he Bald, are a government of and
for the people, and bow far soever it may be ne
cessary to observe the etiquette of nations, and
we way be called upon to observe certain rules
which were not respected with regard to us fn
our troubles, yet there is a limit beyond which
policy and expediency will not permit us to pass.
If circumstances reveal to us the fact that cer
tain movements are being made in Europe. ' if
England may at this moment be negotiating for
the purchase of Cuba; 'if we can demonstrate
these facts, time is everything to us,anci America
must , not be laggard.
The Cubans, the natives 'of the island, have
done whatever has been done to-make. Cuba "the
Queen of the Antilles," and these people are to
day asking us to aid them in the name of God
and liberty. This government has . lived for
eighty-five years, it has survived' wars and a
great rebellion, and is throwiffg, off ,from itself a
gigantic debt,and when asked-to extend the hand
of friendship an&help them into thenisterhood of
Republics, we should be ready and Willing. They
have been taught by us to.struggle for-.freedom,
and now stretching out their hands• they seek aid
from us, whe beguiled them inle t * love of lib
erty. When they cry to us, who have taught
them the lesson,eball we turn our backs to them?
No, we must rather respond: we will put upon
your banner one bright star. They beg of ne, at
least, our moral sympathy.
We are told that international law forbids that
we should help or encourage them. In the name
of the God of justice this is invoked,' but whore
should we have been now had this been adhered
to? This great law must hereafter be interpreted
according to the interest of common humanity.
The speaker advocated the recognition of the
belligerent rights. During our rebellion belliger
ent rights were but poorly respected. The ham
mer sounded all through the European ship
yards; arms were used against Northern eoldlers
which had been manufactured in English arse
nals; Outlets taken from the breasts of our Union
soldiers were moulded - there. This was the
manner in which our neutrality rights were re
spected.
Criticising severely Dulce and his proclama
tions, the General referred to the quasi state of
revolution in which even the city of Havana now
ie. The Spanish soldier, when be first steps upon
the island of Cuba, now places his foot upon the
neck of the native and charges him with a crime,
the crime of having been born where his parents
lived. This was sudlcient to warrant interference.
He did not appeal to the cupidity of his hearers,
nor would he advert to the wealth and resources
of the island. He would, however, say that Ca
bans now had sympathy entire and unreserved,
and when the time came they should receive the
rid of power.
Hon. William D. Kelley was the next speaker.
He said that be was laboring under ill health.and
nothing but the great cause, in behalf of which
this meeting is gathered. could have Induced him
to appear before this vast assemblage. He was
no new advocate of Cuban independence. He
was ono of the anti-slavery men who bade
God-speed to Walker and John A. Quitman, the
generalissimo of the Cuban forces. He knew then
what will surprise many now—that the Cuban
leaders meant not only independence, but free
dom to every slave on Cuban soil. I Great ap
plause. I The papers signed under the tree at
Appomattox did not quiet the soul of John
Brown. It is still marching on I applause], and
will continue to do so until the liberation of
every slave in the world.
In 1863 the speaker had the privilege of intro
ducing to Abraham Lincoln [long-continued ap
plause I, who then occupied the Executive chair,
n single delegate from the principal slaveholdere
of Cuba. The Emancipation Proclamation had
just then gone into effect. My Cuban friend
then said that ho was in the greatest dread in
which he ever stood. Mr. Lincoln sat reading,
and he remarked, "You have not come to ask me
to issue another proclamation?" "Yea, sir," was
the reply, "that is just what I have to
do, and that in the name of the greatest
slaveholding family of my native island." it was
further remarked that he knew that slavery could
not be abolished in Cuba by a single stroke of the
pen, as it had been in this country, but It the war
resulted successfully, and the emancipation pro
clamation was maintained, they should ask our
aid to secure freedom and equal rights to every
roan in Cuba. He produced a petition without
names to It, but said that by the next steamer the
riarnta should be received. So much for the
Spanish Government freedom in Cuba.
The cause appeals to us in every act. It
touches us pecuniarily. The tax of e 32,000,000
levied yearly by Spain is a tax of about 810,000,-
L,OO upon the commerce and industry of the peo
ple of the United States. There are four millions
of our fellow-citizens who are liable to be kid-
Lapped and sold into slavery ln Cuba. That must
I , e put beyond possibility. Cuba must be free
I cheers I, and no child born on her soil shall be
,old into slavery.
The speaker said that he did not wish to pre
( ipitate our Government into any rash act. We
must do nothing which will loosen the grip we
Lave on the throat of England. We must do
Nothing which may mitigate the high and just
(maims which we have against that power.
England claims to be the interpreter of inter
national law. There is no international law which
will prevent a lady from handing a gun to some
raveling Yankee. [Laughter. There is no law
which precludes American citizens from emi
grating. There is no law, human or divine, to
pi - et - cut a man from taking a Sharp's ride, cross
Ihe Cull andgun a little In the wilds of Cabs.
applause.] If it is found that ten, twenty, or
thirty; with their guns, cross to Cuba in a sloop
for a little sport, England cannot complain of
any violation of international law.
The speaker then appealed to the ladies to as
sist, by their advice and prayers, the down
treeden women of Cuba. He believed, from
what he saw here, that the committee of thirteen
to be appointed tinder the resolutions adopted
would be able to hand to every enterprising
Yankee who may desire to study foreign geogra
by a free pass to Cuba, a rifle and a trunk to
carry his clothing in, andi perhaps a few percus
sion cape.
Mr. Kelley then retired amidst long-continued
applause.
The Cuban flags were then brought upon the
Lage by refugees from that island. The whole
audience rose and there was loud and long-con
tinued cheering.
The Young Maennerchor, Mr. William Hart
mann, leader, then appeared, and sang a song of
freedom, which was rapturously applauded.
The. President announced the following as the

CLerenrsu RELaTioNsiim—lips night the
harden% kind of a looking gent di a , 'toyed some
of..the female portion 01 CaMdelk
by his drunken behavior. Lie would go into
stores and claim relationship with them as cousin
or brother. When taken into custody he had en
tered the store of Mrs. Sherman, whom ho im
portuned to tell (Meer Owen that he was her
brother. But the lady did not believe she had
such a brother, and ho was conducted to the
lock-ups where he was granted Limo to reflect
upon his misbehavior. According to his story,
his fen:tate relationship is very extensive.
PIEUV JEUSEY FIAT
THE Nitiv CITY tfAt. L.--Daring the last session.
of the New Jereey I..ealslature some;of the eitt•
zens of Camden seemed to bo remarkably anx
ious to have a special law passed, in case the
new city charter failed, authorizing the Council
to raise money, by taxation and borrowing; to
ereet.a new City Hall. The bill 6646' introduced
and went so far as to designate that the new
buildings should bo located on the site of the old,
ones, thus taking the power of seleetitig the site
out of the hands of the Council. The friends of
the measure supposed the bill was passed; but
yesterday the City Clerk received official notice
from Mr. Cougar, Secretary of State, that no
such act bad been submitted to him for certifica
tion. So the project of a new City Hall again
falls for the year.
Cosa. On..—lt is said that parties have been for
some time past selling an article of coal oil in
Camden, which is exceedingly dangerous from its
explosive qualities, it not having received the
test required by the law in reference thereto. To
such au extent has this illegal traffic been carried
on that many citizens have petitioned Council
to take some action in reference to its suppres
sion, and that body has very wisely and properly
ordered an investigation into the matter. The
persons who would thus endanger the lives and
property of unsuspecting people ought to be
severely punished.
MADDons.—The predisposition to hydropho
bia at this season of the year among the canine
species has bad the effect already to induce some
of the citizens of Camden to place muzzles on
their dogs, and should be a snthcientineentive to
all others to do likewise, before the Mayor' issues
his proclamation to that effect. The moat rigid
measures should be taken to shield the people
from the danger of these rabid pests to the com
munity.
EXCIIRBIONS.—Between thirty and forty excur
sions have already been secured to A !antic City
for the coming season, and it is believed that
every day will be taken up before the middle of
May.
Lonouns.—About thirty persona have boon
accommodated with lodgings at the station
house during the past week, a falling off from
previous weeks.

THE EASTER EGG.
It stood on the mantel-piece of the beat parlor,
in a little ornamental egg-enpl.of gilt filagree
work. I noticed it as coon as I entered the room,
and wondered what it was. A close serntiny
showed me that It was intended for iin 'Stater
ewg." There were the variegated hues unmia
lakatly plain, and underneath, on a geld plate
oa the:rebind, were the words, 'To Jos.

was civil to rue, his only guest. and was rather a

morning,---Laster Monday, hi fact,--I was
sitting as 'usual In the best parlOr, to Soltteull
grand( ur, when a knock came ai the door, and
t.'atiri mine bore and his wife entered.. There was
bn ‘ppearauce of confusion in their looks, which
I...is:id me. Tte mystery was soon solved by

Before I bad time to reply, hirr.clarke broke In

to dire with tiett as_tis in age:nerd way; but to

we made bold, fir, to think you would not be
anove eatin' a bit o' dinner with us."
I very readily ace( pled the invitation, much to
tie dt light ottlie worthy couple; and to cat mat
ti re short, a very gobd dinner arc bad. I iodated
upon the wholeTarty adjourniug to the best par
lor after dinner, when mine host produced some
ctoice port from the cellar. It being Raster
Monday, and I having been, so to speak, admit
ud into the bosom of the family, I ventured to
broach the question of the egg. If not of a
pr• vete nature, what did it relate to? A
general laugh, and a husky chuckle from
old Jeseph himself, suggested that there was
something amusing connected with the egg; and
It didn't require much pressing to Induce Mr.
Clarke to tell the tale, which ho did as follows:
'Let's see, it must be goin' on for fifteen years
sines that happened. Howsucuever, I'll begin at
the beginnin'. Ye've, maybe, noticed that big
house opposite. Well, there a Dr. Outer lives.
He's a widower;—wite's been dead this ton years,
.1 suppose; he has a couple o' darters, but they're
married and settled elsewhere. It's ono o' them
as I'm goin' to tell ye of. Decry me! I remark"
ber when them darters of hiesen was young
girls,—what romps they used to have! D'ye see
that round bole in the big door there, close to the
latch? Well, that's where they used to stand a tip
toe and peep through when they heard any gentle
men a drivin' or ridin' up hero, and we used to
have a power o' young college gonte then,—far
more than now. But I'm gettin off the line.
Well, a matter o' fifteen years ago, there was a,
young chap &Lavin' tide learnin medicine with
Dr. Carter,—a krencliman he was, Alfred Chabot
they called him. A merry, ntco-lookin' little
feller ho was,—far decenter to look at and talk to
than ever I thought a fnrriner could ha' been.
Be was fond o' comic' here of an evenin', and
would bring his fiddle with him, and sing to it as
sweet as a bird. And he was that amain' with
it all, that I tell yo, I've many a time thought I'd
ha' died with laughin' at him. I think, ho Must
ha' had some larks with the young ladies oppo
site, too, when the old man was away, for I've
heard 'em laughin' in the garden like good 'tins,
many a time. And my wife she says to me ono
day,—
"'I tell 'cc what,Joe,—that young French chap
'll bo spliced to one o' thous, Miss ,Carters afore
long, or my name ain't Betty Qlarke.'
" 'D'ye think so, Betty P sfaye - I. For, to tell
the truth, I never cast a thought on the matter
afore,—women lasoch sharper hands than men,
ye see, at firuling.Ont them sort o' things.
"'Think it!' says she, 'l'm just certain of It;
and what's more, 'tie Miss Susie, the younger
one, be's:Haven't I watched 'em lookin'
at one another in church, eo sly, when they
thought riobody's eye was on 'em ? La! bless
yer, 'tis we women folks that have the eyes; you
men are as blind as bate.'
"Well, after what Betty said, I thought I'd look
al my lady and gentleman in church the next
Sunday I was there. But never a sign did I see,
bless ye, pass,. between 'em their eyes seemed
glued to their prayer-hooks, leastways hers wore.
What they were at in sermon time, I can't toll
ye, for I generally listens to our parson with my
eyes elintt If Must bother a ban, ye know, when
he's PireuebilV, tO see folks ull staring at him with
their eyes widn ?pew; so I always shuts mine.
"This young Chabot, lid lived in lodgings In
the village, in the very house where our Lott
lives now. Old Billy H4WOB and his wife lived
there then, and Billy says to me, when we was
smokin' oar pipos together 'one evenin' beside
the Club-room fire—
tJoe,Leays he r tray -old 'omen -- tells me - Dr.
Carter won't let that young . -Frefich chap have
hie darter.,' ~
" 'Nonsense!' says . I, 'You don't moan to atty
young Cluibet has asked for one of 'on!'
.Ay I that he has, Joe; and old Carter stormed
afd swore dreadful at him, so my Bally says; but
how ehe eome,to„hearon't, mutest' theyOnturgqii
elm'n told her Meech`, I don't know.' " '
"'Which of 'em did he ask for did Bally
say
Well, theyoung'tm, I believe.'
thon - ,' says I, 'ye may depend upon it,
it's because be didn't choose Vother. Ye see, the
young 'no is young, and can afford to wait; but
the old 'nn, she Is gettin' on in years, and it'll be
, bard.to get rid of her BOOM'
j"'Well, there's a deal o' troth 1] that. Joe,'
sale Billy. Just then my missis came in, and
flijly bad to go a minute arter; so we didn't have
;any, more talkebont old Carter and his darter
that night. , ,
"Ilowimmover, young' Chabot sta yed on'anff
smiled as fritndly with the old man as ever, eo I
began to think that Billy Hawes's missis had been
gau,thobib' him with some cock-and-bull story
as wasn't trpu. -,
"Well, lime went on. ChrlB6maB Cattle aid
went. rind a mortal cold Christmas it was. Poor
old fli;ly Hawes, he was laid up that bad with it
that I never saw a sight of him for three months
arterwards.
"On Easter Monday, old Carter went to Nor
fells on some business or other. The day after
he had gone, about six 'o'clock in the evenia',
young Chatiot comes into the bar, and says to
rue •
" Mr. Clarke, I've got a friend here who has
eeme to Pee me. We're! going to travel up to
London to-night by the last train from Welbeach.
I watt to know it you'll drive us over t 6 Wel
beach in your shandry. I've got a couple of
small portmanteaus, and that's all our luggage.'
"'What time d'ye want to start from this?' I
asked.
" .0, a little after ten,—say a quarter past.'
"'Very well, then, sir,' says I; 'l've no objec
tion to drive ye; but I hope ye'll not keep me
wallin',lor it's a cold night to let a horse stand
about in harness.' a CA.
" 'O, no fear of that.. We'll be hero punctually
to the minute,' says he, and without more words
walked about his business.
" Ye see we bad , no line
,nearer than Welbeach
in thOtle aye, and that,was go od five miles off.
I had a rattlin' mare then, though, that could
cover the distance easy in twenty minutes.
"Weli,ty ten minutes past ten the shandry was
ready, and just on the minute of the quarter my
pang gentleman t comes upyrith his friend and a
boy carryin' the portiminteeps. The horse bein'
ready, and we three ready too, without more ado
they bopped into the trap. Mr. Chabot sat in
front with rue, and bis friend perched himself on
the back seat, and off we drove. e
"I hadn't much time to look at 'Mr. Chabot's
friend, but he seemed about the Pame height as
the young Frebchman, with a little more
beard and mustachios. Mr. Chabot and
me, we talked away pretty faat,-, but the
Kent behind didn't put in - 's Word; though,
for the matter o' that, It ain't com
fortable to talk from the back seat to a party in
front. Once Mr. Chabot turned round and said:
'• 'Have 3ou any cigars there, Philip? I dare
say Mr Clarke would like one; and I'maure i
should.'
••'O yes,' says Mr. Philip, and bands over a
ease full. I took one, Mr. Chabot took one, and,
as I beard Mr. Philip strike a watch directly af

'The rill morein' there was such a hubbub

Surle waan't to be found anywhere,—hadn't slept
in her bed all night, and was gouts nobody knew
where. Yon see, they went to bed so early they
hadn't missed her over night. Well, d'ye know,

"Now 'taw it all plaid enough. Mr. Chabot
and his friend !—the drive to the station ! It
nearly took my breath away as the truth burst
upon me. The young gentleman that sat be
hind had beep—Mies Susie Carter! 'Well, of gill
the neat tricks ever played, there's none combs
up to that,' says I to myself. Then I turns to
Betty and says,—
"'l'll take my solemn oath, Betty, I never
guessed what was up till this minute. As true
as I'm etandin' here, I had no more notion
that that young feller with Mr. Chabot wits a
Indy, than I'd have now that you're Queen of
England.'
"It - was a long time afore the old 'omen would
believe me, but she come round at last; and when
old Carter cute to hear of it, my word, didn't he
swear, and Wasn't he mad ! Didn't he pitch into
me neither! But I gave him as good as I got;
and when he told me I had helped his daughter
to escape, I gave him the Ile flat. He swore he'd
have the law on me. But young Chabot wrote a
letter exoneratin' me from all blame, and sayin'
was as innocent as a babe unborn, which was
gospel truth; and the old man came to me after
wards,and said ho was Berry for the hasty words
he had spoken.
"I had a letter from the.. young scamp, too,
thankin' me In the name ofhimself and his wife
(they were married as soon as they got to Lon
don) for the kind service I had done them. Ile
said Mr. Philip wished me to know that though
he was willltur to forgive, be never could forgot
the agony and torture I had put him to bypress
ing him into taking that dreadful hot brandy out
of the lucky egg-shell, which he was afraid to re
fuse lest he should rouse suspicion.
"After hoidlu' out against 'era desperate for six
months or more, old Carter came round and gave
in, and made the best of it ; and It wasn't a bad
ibingi for young Chabot had money of his own.
It was when they came down here, man and wife,
to stay with the old man, that they gave me yon
der egg you asked about. It's a pretty thing, tho'
I don't know what it's made of—some, kind of
French plaster, I take it. They said it was a fitting
token to recall that memorable night; and more
especially Mies Susie—Mrs. Chabot, that la—said,
to keep alive the remembrance of that awful egg
shell full o' brandy.
"well , I was riled a bit at first, at the trick'.
they bad played on me, and at the way they.had
made me their tool, but I have never regretted
doin' them the service. I believe It was a kind
ness to them after all; for theyloved one another,
and they'd only ha' been miserable if they bad
been separated. And Wanly belief sir, that if
there was ullttle - more - oflhat sort EV love - whin --
made them two young folks run away rather
than be parted, between a many husbands and
wives that gets married in a proper und,re-.
apectablo way, this world 'ad be a sight happier
