QUEEN ISABELLA.
Iler Appearance in Public with the
"Bleeding Nun."
•
A Paris .correspondent writes :
The famous nun, Sister Patrocinio.has left her convent
at San Melons°. to take up her abode with the ex.
Queen. She was present, a few days since, at the de
hates in the Legislative Chamber, where she attracted a
good deal of attention.' Her joyous,rubicund, energetic,
rather sensual face offered a curious contrast with one's
usual notions of the ascetic pallor and stillness of. the
conventual countenance. She was dressed in a
,7.reen cloth robe, with a white .cape (the colors of the
Spanish Carmelites), and had on her head a green and
sifiliciently world-looking Mote of black velvet, with a
buitch of nodding black feathery. She claims to see divine
visions, and the stigmata. or wounds simulating those of
the nails in the hands and feet of the crucified Saviour,
ppeer, at t imes: in the hands and feet. of the.. modern
sa int. The ex-Queen holds her sanctity in such super
stitiouskeverence that lie -wears- no-other chenuses
that, those that have been worn by Sister Patroci
nio ! The ex-Queen ' with her husband and a. Lady
of Honor, occupied the Imperial box at the Hallett,
.Where Patti's parting benefit had. brought together a
crowded house. She wore a dress of pink silk. covered
with black lace.and a heavy wreath of hunches of violets
alternating with white camelias; a few ditunofids only.
She is juituensely stout, .with henry, coarse • features,
arms like pillars. and broad, projecting bust. She is said
to put on remarkably majestic manners when
play ing Queen; but as she showed last
evening, her manner of moving seemed
fidgety and rather nervous than dignified. She
used her glittering fan as only tl Spanish woman can;
opening it, - fanning herself for an instant and closing it,
several times in '6lleCeSSifill, with marvellous rapidity,
the motions of the fan being more like those of a butter
fly than anything else. She and her party disappeared
between each act, evidently in quest of refreshments that
were doubtless provided for them in the little drawing
room with wluch the Imperial box counicates.

A Paris letter writer has the following in
terePaing account :

PHILADELPHIA', THURSDAY, MAY 27, 1869.
LETTER FlREfir ROME.
Chit-Chat „About Literature, Art and
Society.
Correspondence of the Phila. Evening Bulletin',J
PIAZZA DI SNAG! A; Rome, Italy,. April 4th.:
—Dr. Winslow, the author of "tome and
Nature"- (puhlished by Macmillan, London,
1869), has been wintering in Rome, with his
family, but leaves us on Thursday, I am sorry
to say, for Anierica The Doctor talks of going
to San Francisco to settle, hut Will spend the
coming winter in Boston, as he is urged :by
several literary societies to deliver soino
lectures.
"Tome and Nature," Dr. Winsloves book
hati been received by the European savants
with the most gratifying praise. : Liebig writes
in a private letter, which I have had the plea
tiire of reading
',lite development of w
br. Winslo'e ideas .
.on Force and Space, Inertiaand Mind, Attrac-,
lion and Repulsion; is . clear and concise, and
:when I arrived at page 85 I said to myself, Dr:
Winslow has won his game. There is a wort-
Aerial store of knoWledge in 'that admirable
work, and I belong to that number of his
friends who say that they are not only pleased
by his logical and charming style, - but more
still—surprised at the magnittide, of the fields
which he has attempted to conquer. The facts
which Dr. Winslow discusses may be suhject
to controversy, but my opinion is that his fun
damental thesis is correct."
The English journals have given the; book
the most satisfactory notices. The Saturday.
It cc kla, in a long, intelligent article upon the
work, says:
'The aim of this book is to establish the exist
ence, and to trace the fundamental laws of a
repulsive force in nature complementary to
the attractive force inherent in matter. In
follow* out this thesis Dr. Win Slow haS
shown great subtlety and strength 'of reasbn
ing,combined with much width of observation'
and a Marked power of generalizing froth
facai."
It is very agreeable to Americans when
abroad to find their clever countrymen taking
first rank among the leading minds of this old
world. Dr.Winslowis about fifty-five; middle
size, has a well-shaped bead, a clear, ruddy,
complexion, and a faCe whose expression is as.
benevolent as philosophical. In conversation
he is accessible, candid and fresh as a boy,
listens with the most ben:itching patience,and'
accepts the speculations of others ay if they
were worthy of all respect. He is a true Ame-I
rwan, ready with pen and tongue. It is said
that the Doctor lectures with the most agree
able facility, and talks to his audience as if the
mass was one person. Buchanan Read, hur
ried as he is in finishing the large "Sheridan's
Ride" for the Union League of Philadelphia,
is taking time this week to
,paint one of his
admirable portrait.; of Dr. Winslow, Which
will be a valuble possession in the future, both
as a work of this greatartiskanda.s a faithful;
agreeable portrait Qf the philosopher.
A few words more about our artists:
- „
Church has returned to Rome froth Greece,
. .
but he and his family leave , in a few days on
their way to Anieriea. Inman talks of going
to California. Jewell goes to Florence next
week, from thence to Venice, to study, and at
the end of the summer to Germany, but will
return to Rome with his family next 'fall.*
Healey has received a commission from Arch
bishop Spalding to paint. the portrait of the
Pope. Rinehart has just returned to Rome
from an excursion with some friends to Vi
terbo. Ila.seltine, the painter, left for the
United , States last week., You must not keep
him there. His brother, Haseltine the scalp
tor, is very busy finishing work to be
sent off. When I was in his studio,
a fortnight ago, I saw the lovely mo
dels for statuette portraits of the Misses Hol
laday, of California, very bea.utiful girls, who
made quite asensition in the American circle
this season. Mrs. Childs's excellent bust was
already packed. Mr. Longfelloxv's was re
ceiving the final polishing. Mr. Haseltine
showed me two charming designs for statues
of the two children of Mr. Michael Weaver,
of Philadelphia, and " a most successful bust of
Mrs. Deßourg Richards, the wife of one of
your Philadelphia artists, who, by the way,
has met with great success in his profession,
this winter, in Rome. Mr. Haseltine's busts
of Mr. Fell, Mr. and Miss Abbott, of Phila
delphia, excellent portraits, are now in the
hands of the marble tviiiii-men.
I have just had a letter from Florence this
morning, dated May 3d, giving me the grad
fyin news that Mrs. J. Grillinghani Fell, who
has been - ill there, is convalescing rapidly. As
soon as she is able to travel, Mr.• Fell and his
family leave Florence for yenice, and so on
north.' In August they return to the States.
The markets are full of the spring vegetables,
and the fruits are coming in. The ,season is
behindhand oli account of the cold Winter and
spring. Strawberries hive been int& confec
tioners' windows--Nazzari's and Spillmann's
—for some weeks, selling at fine prices. I ate
some a week ago that cost $1 50 "gold for four
tlOien; they are now going down in price, and
to-day:We:l:9 eighty cel-lth a peung.,.4spafragus)

green alnionds in their baskets, four • cents a

The stores in the piazzas , and streets begin
to show that their . orrnera 'feel the warm
weather. The curious little, Roman awnings
are hung about everywhere they extend out
a few feet frOm the wall ao l i then fall in a tong

• If any argument were needed to show - the.
wickedness of the bankruptcy system and .the
tendency to:destroy all a man ii sense
.of . in
tegrity and honor, and make him a swindler,it
may be foututin the workings of the system
itself, which develop to what an, extent a be-,
- nevolent laky may be made use of to accoM-•
'dish objects entirely foreign "to the professed
design of the. lawmaker. The Bankruptcy,
law is vulgarly supposed to have been enacted
for the, benefit of honest men hopelessly, strug
gling iindet a load of debt. But its workings
prove that few or no honest men avail them
selves, of itS immoral' proidsionS, and that the
only jierscitis who benefit by It are dishonest
anittraudtdent debtors, and the officers of the.
Bankruptcy Court. It is notorious that the
creditors of the bankrupt rarely obtain from'
these officers any portion of their claims, and
that the,estateSplaced in their hands are eaten
up with auctioneer's fees, court fees, lawyer's
fees, assignee's fees,, and the 'endless charges
attendant upon liquidating and winding up the
business, We could, by entering into details
and. following up the proceedings in almost
any of these bankruptcy cases, show that the
law is supposed by the officers of court to have
been .enacted specially for their behoof, and
that he,'who enters theortals of the Bank
rirptey,-.Court may well leave hope behind him.
The 'estate of Thomas L. White, bookseller,.
on Canal street, lately deceased, is a case
which,illustrates these observations. Mr.'
White'S estate consisted of a stock of books,
which. Were sold last spring by the general as
signee, of the United, States Court. They
realized in gross the sum of three thousand
six himdred and forty-six dollars and thirty
four cents, ($3,010 34), but froth this the auc
tioneer's commission and expenses of sale had
to be deducted. These amounted to the enor
mous,per tentage of nearly half of the whole
amount of the sale---say $.1,751 50. Besides the
auctioneer's bill the assignee had a long string
of fees - and charges amotniting to $2,04.1 75, and
then:there are the Court fees—that is, the fees
Of the Marshal, Clerk and Register—amount
ing to $152 51; balarice against, the estate
(leaving nothing to the creditors) $299 42. We
state the account in form thus:

These figures•have been obtained from the
account filed in, the United States Court, by
the, general assignee, who is an officer ap
,puinted by that Court. - It is not our business
.td.,cominent upon the items'. of this account,
:wiliCh is merely, Selected as an example: That
is for the Creditors' to do; if they see fit; but"
we may be'permitted to askif the charges in
selling a.bankrupt's property and the fees .for
winding lip. his estate are to eat up the pro
ceeds of the property and the creditors are to
be brought in debt besides, would it not have
been better to have made some less expensive
dispcisition of the property? Would it not
have been better to have done with the pro
pertyjust nothing at all?
It_is.pertinent in this connection to ask a
question in the rule of three. If the Bank
ruptcy Court fees on an estate sold for $3,640
amount to $3,945, what will they amount to on
an estate sold for 550,000? Au answer to this
sum in the rule of proportion will show the
profitableness of the general assignee's office,
and will suggest various reflections touching
its surroundings.

Slavery Still In Exiatence—An °Lava
" aeons Case'.
The Wilmington Commercial of .yesterday.
contains the following:- •
At the session of. Court for this county; 'nt
.New Castle, on Monday, the case of Rhoda.
Handy vs. Thomas" Jefferson Clark, came .pp
for trial. .
The plaintiff is an old colored woman, whO
Was bought by .the defendant, living in the
lower end of New Castle county, as a slave,'
some thirty-six • years ago.' She and her
daughter, (who brings a similar suit •to this,)
remained in servitude up to last September,.
ignorant of the fact that the "Year of Jtibilee"
had long before arrived. They were employed!
in severe farni labor, as well as
.household ser
vice, and upon accidentally learning that they
• luid been illegally held, since the ratification
of the 13th Amendment to , the Natfonal Con;. ,
stitution, commenced these suits on a claim.
for 142 weeks' wages. .
The counsel in the case were William ,C.
Spruancp, 14.75 q., for plaintiff and Hon Thomas
Bayard, for. defendant. ..The testimony •of
the daughter was offered in the mother's ease,
when Senator Bayard promptly objected that
by the law of Delaware the evidence of colored
pell4oThi, in this case, was inadmissible. The
Court, hOwever L ordered the evidence to be
taken, Chief Justice Gilpin (who was not try
ing. the case) informally suggesting that the
passage of the *Fourteenth .Amendment con.
elusively settled the point, as to the right of
colored persons to testify. It' was left ,to' the
counsel tor the defence to take exceptions if ho
saw proper, and argue the question- in the
Court of Errors and Appeals.
The argument in the case consumed all of..
Monday afternoon, and the jury was'out whew
the Court adjourned. They returned, yester
day, a verdict for plaintiff for $250. In the
case of the daughter, a judgment for her claim
was then obtained.

Others—The Duty of Congress—Enter
taining Speeches.
BosroY, May 26.—A public meeting, which.
was largely attended; was held by the New.
England Woman's Suffrage Association in
Horticultural Hall to-day, Mrs. Julia Ward
Howe presiding. Prayer was offered by Rev:
Mrs P. A. Hannaford. Letters sympathizing
with' the movement were read from Robert
Collyer, Anna Dickinson, J. Stuart Mill,
George William Curtis, Mrs. Edna :D.
Cheeny and Hon. Geo.T. Hoar.
The following is the letter of Mr. Mill :
AvioNox, April Id, 18 ig.—Deer Madaiit: I an, very
much honored by the. ish of the Nevr.Engiand Woman's
Suffrage Association that I should'" be present at their,
annual meeting, but.ihey have been misinformed us to
my having any present Intention of- visiting America.
Should I ever contemplate such a visit, there are no per,
sons on your Hithi of the Atlantic with whom it would
give me more pleasure .to exchange marks of sy - in a -
than those who are working so energeticall cans°
so dear to me as that of thJequal claim of human be
ings, independent of sex. to the full rigl of citizenship,
and freedom of competition on equal t, ins for all social
advantages. I am, &c ;very sincerely yours,'
J. S. MILL.
The.meeting was addressed in the forenoon
by Wendell Phillips, Ralph Waldo Emerson,
Miss Lela Peckham, '(a young lady. studying
law in Milwaukee,) Rev. Mr. ante, : of Vine
land, N. J. and others, all warmly in favor of
*Oman's sini#ge- " ' '
AMOng a`series' sat resolutions :Offered by
Lucy. Stone Blackwell Was the. following:.
Re:mired, That the sixteenth annuntmeneto the general
Constitution. prepared by lion. George W:Jtilian;whicit
prohibits political distinctions on account of sex, should
take precedence to any national question of mere noWi
eel expediency and is essential to a permanent recon
struction of the Union, and is of vital importance to tho
peace and of prosperity the Republic.
Afternoon Semon.—At the afternoon session,
Rev. Gilbert Haven said that mankind was so
wedded to Custom that the call to new duties
wasgenerally met by murmuring and discon
tent. He claimed that woman was a man in,
true, serene sense, and that no mauhad aright
to say that he had rights that a woman, has
not. It was not so much a right as it was a
duty for women to have - the ballot. The ca
pacity of woman to transact the business of
men had received' a providential sanction
which was equivalent to a confession of--the
equality of woman. The demand of woman
for the ballot ,was a necessary outgrowth of
Christianity,,and it was only ignorance and
prejudice that had.kept the ballot Out of her
hands.
British Emigration to the 'United States.
. An English paper says : "During the week
ending May 8, rive hundred and fifty emigrants
for America sailed from Queenstown, and
above three hundred who could not be accom
modated in the steamers remained behind
waiting for the next sailings. Dr. Mann, of
Natal, declares that the reason why the United
States takes hundreds of thousands of emi
grants where our colonies only get tens of
thousands, is contained in one word—organi
zation. A good deal was said some time ago
against the charitable committees of the. me
tropolis. It is satisfactory to know that, philan
throphy has dealt earnestly with the question
of emigration. The Hon. Mrs. Hobart and
other distinguished ladies are doing a noble
work in this respect. Itwas only the other
day they sent out a large party to. Canada by
way of Liverpool, and they have already se
lected 300 more individuals, who will tshortly
he sent to the same part of the world."
THE. STEAMER QUAKER CITY.
The Steamer a British Vessel—lnter
ference of the British
The Washington correspondent of the N. Y.
Herald says
The case of the Quaker City has already been the sub
ject of *diplomatic confab between Secretary Fish and
Minister Thornton. The hitter, It seems, went to the
State Department On learning of the detention of tho
vessel and stated to Mr. Fish that the Quaker City was
the property of a British subject; thht Ito destination was
Jamaica - and not Cuba; that it wad nut fitted up for
filibustering purposes, and that, in short, her papers
were all right and no sufficient ground for
her detention existed. Mr. Fish informod Minister
Thornton that liu would take the matter into serious
consideration end give an answer as soon lit practica
ble.' After ' the ' departure of Mr: Thornton Mr
Fich eendnutticatoil with Secretary Botittrell , on the
subject, suggesting that Collector Grinnell be 'in

changed the annet of the case by having
lg
the vessel
libelled and brouithl • under the jurisdiction of the
Diotriet Court of New York. This :information - was
given to Secretary Iloutwell by COliktor Grinnell,
and another interview was the result between the Seem.
furies of State and Treasury. -After considering the
whole cue fully, both of these ofiluials have COIIIO to the
conclusion that us the matter has now got 'into the hands
Of the court, it. will be-morejudicious to lot n full (tura

the case. If the vOtisel should really prove to bo destined

have been enforced; wild on the other hand, should the
opposite fact be established, the 'Spanish Government
will have to pay the Costs of tho unlawful detention.

the laughter and conversation or a number, of individtx

interesting episodes of the play, and while Hiss • dalani
was singing, the noise Made by theso parties was 10316E4
and most exasperating to the respectable portleMor the

consider such conduct not only coarse and, vigor, but.
very Outrageous. It deprived other' persons ellogptiter
