BUM & coi THE WETRERILL DIVORCE CASE. ROOMS. ELOQUENT AND /SUDO NENOBIAL OF • 81.11.8.\125413ELLA WETHEBILL, • In dormer to du Charges and Allekatitmo ofher Husband, Dr. WeatirilL • To VIZ SENATE .1.4 . 1) ROMS op REPILMUNTAT;VILS or rus CO3IX9NWEALIII or Pcsrstrixsaus : The humble and respectful memorial of Isabella Wetherill respectfully represents— That I have leztined with feelings of deep re gret and sorrow that my name has been again presented to your honorable bodies, and that my husband has again seen fit to lay before you a petition praying for a divorce, based upon allegations of my negligence, miscon duct and want of fidelity . to him. Of this petition I received no notice, nor can I learn that it was ever made public in the ordinary reports of the proceedings of your honorable bodies, prepared for the public press; and I was only mdebted to the disinterested kind ness of friends, who advised me that certain proceedings were taking which required "me, from self-respect, from the love I bore my children, and from my consciousness of inn°• cence, to give them immediate attention. Aly eldest son (who, with all my children, ; has been; and I thank my God with all christian sincerity for it, still is faithful, true and de voted to me in my sadness and affliciion,) visited Harrisburg to learn the truth, and on his 'return yesterday I received for the first time definite information of what was.daing, and how near I was to condemnation and my children to disgrace, without notice or hear•" ing. I cannot suppose it possible that your honorable bodies will judge and decide or me, my righti, my children's interests, and their mother's character, without giving her' and them a full opportunity of meeting every ac cusation and disproving every charge. • It; by law, I have such a right, I claim it—if I have not, I appeal to your sense of sacred justice to give it to me. Indeed I am not guilty in act or thought of any of the things of which Ism accused, in the printed memorial of my misguided husband, and which I havenow before me. They cannot, believe me, be proved—no witness can maintain them; and if any profess so to do, I desire and claim the right to be present when such evidence- is heard—that my friends and counsel may be there to aid me—that secret testimony shall not harm me—that my own witnesses' may be examined and heard—tharmy life and my conduct as a woman, a wife, and a mother, ,may; be proved and made known to you.; but until this is done, I pray you do not condemn Me and give to the short remnant of my life more unhappiness and sorrow than past years of sadness have caused. The evidence taken for the last session of the Legislature' does not apply io the new and different state of facts presented by the new memorial ; and I claim the right, if I haveit, that what should be given in support of the one now before you shall be only taken after notice to me. It is not my intention to trouble you with a reply in detail to the memorial which- my deceived and unhappy husband has presented. I shall not go through the history of my, early life ; nor show to you how much orlow lit tle, nor what species of kindness was hiearly 'life rendered to the members of my family— nor what profits my husband realized by put chasing their property ; nor shall I lay before you the bill rendered my sister's husband, after her marriage, for her board during the period she had been a.guest in my husband's house. I do desire to say that the expense of a great portion of my sister's education was paid from the limited means Of my mother. She subsequently married Dr. Wethenll's nephew, and when a bill was sent to him for her board during her stay in my house, I thought and still think it was not just to magnify her residence with me info a deep and lasting obligation, for which she and myself have been properly grateful. If my husband means to charge me with extravagance and disregard of his pecuniary interests, I beg most solemnly to deny it. Had I desired to participate'even in the gaie ties of those who were his friends and my own—which I did not—my own feeble health would not for many years have permitted and it is surely not just to reproach me with having enjoyed those comforts which it was within his means readily to give, and which, before his heart was turned against me. were enjoyed by us in common. Never until the occurrence of these sad details was it sug gested to me that my mode of life was other than consistent with his desires and wishes. I been the mother of fifteen children to this my husband, who now seeks to disown and disgrace me ; twelye of them are now alive—in them my hope, my pride, my con• solution is placed. I desired no extravagant expenditures for town or country house—my hope on earth was a peaceful and happy life, to educate my children in virtue and christi anity,and to make them industrious and usefu. Indeed there is no less fairness of what is said of my temper and deportment lo my husband.—lt is easy, very, very easy, for one who should defend, to make charges against his wife ; but I promise you, that it you will bin give me time to defend myself, that I will show by all the members of my hus band's own family, by friends, by all who have known me, or lived with me, or seen me at home or road, that these ch argesi are without foundation. In the testimony, that was taken last winter, I refer with pride to the evidence given by the brother and sister of my husband. Mr.. John Price Wetherill said, from my marriage until my removal to the country, during which time he was a con stant visiter at our house, he had never known or seen any thing which induced him' to be lieve that I was faithless in my duties to my husband or my children; and Mrs. Gumbes, my husband's sister, says that so far as she could judge, I "was a faithful and affection ate mother and wife." These statements came from those who were called as witness es against me—judge me even by' them. The dying words of my mother's - husband were those of kindness and commendation to Me for my conduct as a wife. Believe me, I have not forgotten them, or neglected since to deserve them. Nor have I ever re fused to execute any or erhy deed which ever required my acknowledgment. I won der that such a charge should be repeated. Mr. John Price Wetherill; in his testimony given last winter, disproved it. It will be found that be said expressly that I had never refused, but was willing to execute the deed : but my unfortunate husband had his heart so turned from ine; that he it was that refused to complete the paper, because my name was in it as his wife. I vouch the evidence on the files of one of your honorable Wiles for the truth of what I say. Need Ido more to show you the injustice with which I am .treated, nor what must have been theitate of my husband's mind towards me, when in such a manner he refused to associate- his name with mine. Never have I, by word, act or deed; desired or attempted to alienate the affections of his' children—never have I attempted to influence his servants to leave him. No, no—it was my hope and wish to reclaim m%' husband—' to make his home a glad one, and his children' a blessing to him, in happiness, as they hive been to me in misfortune. • I am accused in this memorial of leaving his house. I , the woman who is represen ted to you as extravagant—loving show and splendor—am agam charged with' flying, without cause, from all this—with abandon. inge Without reason, the splendid mansion; in Montgomery county—giving up all these luxuries and extravaganctes to which it it pretended..l am ao much devoted. Do you think,. gentlemen,! would - hive left such a home •and my children,. Without great and imminent necessity 1 I an; no; here to re criminate upon my husband, but to defend myself.

I submitted tom)? counsel, Mr. Horace Binney, the truth. I was advi sed not to return—in the most solemn man- ner I was cautioned against him ; but I hoped still for happier times, when my hus band wotild no longer so set; and f could ~ot Lye without my children. -I went back. Against their advice and wishes, I determin ed to try once more. I did so in vain. I again was compelled to leave my home—my presence' gave no pleasure, but a restraint ; and to my husband's- nephew I went for protection. FOr my husband's sake, and for my children's sake, I do not desire to enter into the, details of the circumstances which.; drove the from my home. My hus band knows them, and his family knows them. Nothing : 1)1;1 the sternest necessity, you will believe, I trust, compelled me to go. If lam driven to give the evidence on this subject for the protection. of my charac ter and conduct, the disgrace and contumely which shall fall on my children, has'not been produced by the. A reference is made in this memorial to a settlement made upon me and my children, during the pendency of the application, du ring last winter. The circumstances atten dilig it were then fully made known to the Legislature in a letter from my counsel, of which I send a copy. I truthfully stated what occurred. I had more testimony in reference to my treat ment-by my husband—it was communicated frankly to those who-acted as his counsel last winter ;,and that communication resul- ted in securing to me, for myself and my children, $5,000 per _year ; and from that sum they are Maintained. Nine of them are still to be educated froni it ; and in all the charges made again s t me by my hus band, Jhank God, there is but one which hints even that I am not now as I ever have been—patiently. faithfully and humbly dis charging my duty towards them. If he had considered this sum too large for their maintenance, Support and education, in the manner he desired, (which all acquainted with the expenses of this large city will say it was not) it was optional with him to give it. It was voluntary on his part. It met the approbation of his counsel and his family—his own brother is the trustee. To me the most important right, secured by that agreement, was -the absolute and un controlled possession of my children—to have them under my own roof—in my own exclusive care—and so' to see that neither in mind or morals should they be injured by contact with th ose whom I consider unfit associates and companions. My friends.and counsel advised me, under the circuaistan- ces then presented, (for then there was no attack upon my character and fidelity even insinuated) to be silent, and to spare my husband and my children the consequences which must ensue from Jny producing the evidence in my favor ; and even now, per haps, I might , have been content to have been judged by the evidence against me, had my husband been satisfied with restor ing his claim to your interference, upon the grounds that were presented' to the Legisla ture. But when it is asserted in the me morial that I have assented directly or indi rectly, to the passage of this Bill,—when it is asserted that this settlement was made on an agreement on my part not to oppose a divorce, 1 can but meet it with a solemn and truthful denial. 1 said then, through my counsel, as L say now to you, that I never would assent to the passage of the Bill, and that my rights and interests, and feelings, must be judged by those to whom the law had confided them. If such was my determination then, it has been strengthened by what has since occured. I find in this memorial, for the first time, an insinuation against my .conduct as a faithful wife=that I went to Cape May against my husband's wish, and that my: conduct there was the' subct of general observation and remark. M y own son went with me and se cured my apartment—my feeble health, and the advice of my physician, sent me there, —I was in the same house there with my husband's sister. Mrs. Gumbes, to whom I have referred, and with other of his relatives —my husband refused to accompany me ; ant, he expressed, in the presence of my children, a hope that I never would return. Such is the truth-but I cannot shut my eyes to the fact that more is meant than is expressed by the insinuation.' Nay, more, I have heard that secret affidavits have been obtained by my husband, which, in bolder terms, accuse me of impropriety ; and I am told that these are confidentially exhibited to you, gentlemen, under the pretences of a de sire to keep my dishonor from the world.— Whatever heretofore may . have been my wishes to be silent and quiescent under all my sadness and sufferings, they leave me now —you surely will not suffer me to be thus secretly tried and condemned. I know not when, nor where, nor how, norwith whom, lam charged with faighlesnesi to my husband ; but be it when, and where it may, to you, and before my God, I deny its truth. Hear me in my defen.e--rny youth has long since passed away—of :Ai/ world, little remains to me—my twelve children love and cling to me, and I be seech you to su f fer me to lurve4he opportunity to prove to you, and, and to them, that I am worthy to beso loved as their mother—guilt less of want of virtue. What madness ! what spirit of evil can have instigated my husband thus to charge me, and secretly to prepare the means to de- I stripy the character of his children's mother, and his wife for twenty six years, I cannot tell.—no such idea was suggested by a human being, on his former application to your pre decessors,;; and in my soul I acquit him from sincerely believing it. In Febivary last, when the arrangement to which I referred was made, he signed an agreement with his brother Mr. J. P. Weth erill, and myself, that I should " forever after take and keep in her" [my] " custody and care all the children ;" and that " their per sons, education and maintenance should be under the exclusive management and abio lute control of their mother," [myself.l— it be that these things are true? [myself Can the extravagant and bold and bad woman my wretched husband would have you be lieve, can it be that he would thus surrender 'to my care the morals and education of his little children his daughters ?! !

ISABELLA WETHERILL. Feb. 8, 1851. INCONSISTENCIES OF GE Nll7B. The reader may remember an article in our paper, a short time since, headed "Littlen es s oUGreat Men," in whicli some curious anec dotes of the celebrated mathematician Lap lace were related. - The singular meanness wilich that great man is said to have exhibi ted in some of his transactions, has brought to' our mind many similar acts of littleness and inconsistency, which history has recorded of great and good men. It is undoubtedly true that a mean or inconsistent actor re mark strikes us with tenfold power, when coming from a man of great parts; but it sometimes seems as if nature had made her favorite children inore susceptible to these weaknesses of human nature than men of common mould. She gives dazzling talents, but withholds common sense. She endows with a mind fitted to soar among the stars, but leaves it to become the slave of the most sensual of passions. She stamps genius upon the forehead, and littleness upon the soul. Lest Paul should become exalted above Measure when he. was lifted up to the. third heaven, there was given to him a thorn in the flesh, to remind him that he had not yet done with the world, So it is with,- those blessed with unusualirntellectual gilts. Their petty acts and many inconsistencies and weaknesses serve to curb their pride, and de ter mankind from worshipping them. Nature works by a law of compensations, and after all perhaps her favors are not so unequally distributed as we are wont to imagine.— ' What she denies in one thing is_often made up in another. "A man of letters," says Whipple, •• is often a man of two natures. These two often clash sadly. Seneca Wrote in praise of poverty, on a table formed of solid gold, with two millions of of, pounds let out on usury. Sterne was a very selfish man ; yet a writer unexcelled for pathos and char ity, Sir Richard Steele wrote excellently well on temperance, when he was sober.— Dr. Johnson's essays on politeness were ad mirable ; yet his "you lie, sir !" and "you don't understand the question, sir !" were too common' characteristics of colloquies.— He and Dr. Shebbeare were both pensioned at the same time. The report immediately fle`w, that the king had pensioned two bears, a he-bear and a she-bear. Young, Whose gloomy fancy cast such sombre tinges on life, was in society, a brisk, lively man, continually pelting his hearers with puerlie puns. Mrs. Carter, fresh from the stern, dark grandeur of the Night Thoughts, ex pressed her amazement at his flippancy.— "Madam," said he, "there is much differ ence between writing and talking. The same poet's favorite theme was the nothing. ness of worldly . things; his favorite pursuit Was rank and riches. Had Mrs. Carter no- ticed this , incongruity,she might have added, "Madam, there is much difference between writing didactic' poems and living didactic poems." Bacon, the most comprehensive and forward-looking of modern intellects, and in feeling one of the- most benevolent; was meanly and wickedly ambitious of place." • Many other 'grear names might be added to the few instances -of inconsistency enu merated by Mr. Whipple. Sir ' Thomas Moore, in his Utopia, expressed very tolerant views respecting differences in religious be lief, and condemned the common resort to coercion and violence, for the conversion of unbelievers ; but he persecuted the Protes tants with as much intolerance and severity 'as his narrow minded cotemporaries. Lord Herbert, after completing his deistical work, the first in which deism was ever reduced to a 'systern,—took his manuscript, and kneeling in his chamber, devoutly prayed to God that he would grant him a sign Whether or not to publish it. "I had no sooner spoken these words," he adds, "but a loud, though yet gentle noise, came from 'heaven' (for it was like nothing on earth,) `which did so comfort and cheer me, that I took my.pention as granted, and that I had the sign I,,demanded, whereupon also I re 'solved to 'Print my book." Here was a man who did not believe in divine revelation to mankind necessary, seriously asking for a ,special revelation of the will of God. re specting the publication of his book ! Even the genius .of Shakspeare is not without its shadow. His sonnets, beauti ful as many of them are, represent the poet in a character in which we do not love to behold him, add we almost wish, with Mr. Hallam, that he had never written them.— "His excessive and elaborate praise - of yOuthful beauty in a man seems derogatory to his genius, and savors of adulation ; and when we find him excuse this friend for rob bing him of his mistress—a married female —and subjecting his • noble spirit to all the pangs of jealousy, guilty love, and blind misplaced attachment, it is painful and diffi- Cult to believe, that all this weakness and folly can be associated with the name of Shaltspeare, and still more that he shOuld record it in verse which he believed would descend to future ages." Sis Thomas Browne, one of the most learned and original writers of the 17th century, not only- believed in witches, ap paritions and diabolical illusions, but grave ly obseries -"that to those who would at tempt to teach animals the art of speech, the dogs and cats that usually speak unto witches may afford some encouragement." Lawrence Sterne was -- rt notable. bundle of of incongruities, eccentricities and affecta tions. He was a clergyman, but dissolute and licentious ; a sentimentalist, whose pen dropt tears for all animate and inanimate nature, but hard-hearted' and selfish in his intercourse with others. He published a volume of sermons, "but," says the poet Gray, "you see the author often tottering on the verge of laughter, and ready to throw his penwigin the face of the audience."— Pope does not escape - a similar charge of inconsistency ; Cowper wondered that the seine pen that wrote the Danciad, could in dite, Hume,in his Essays,has noticed a remark able instance of this ailing of great minds, in the writings and habits of the classic author Sallust, who "abounds in praises of the old rigid Roman virtue, though him self the, most egregious instance of modern luxury and corruption ; speaks contemptu ously of the Grecian eloquence, though the most' eloquent writer m the world ; nay, employs preposterous digressions and decla mations" ta thispurpo4e, though a model of taste and correctness. -TO such an illustri ous example of the "two natures" often found united in agreat mind, it is needless to add limy-thing more, though similar illus trations may be fontid on almost every pap of history.

Oliecellantoug. SWEDISH BRIDALS. When a young girl is to be - married in Sweden, she dressess herself in all her bri dal garments, and places herself in the mid dle of the parlor, standing. A circle - of bright lights are placed about her, and the , groomsmen also come into the room, bear ing each a brilliantly lighted chandelier.— The doors and windows are then thrown open, every one who chooses can come and see and criticise the bride .as they please.— Impudent fellows will walk about het' and besides criticising her appearance, which they do within her hearing they will use some such expressions as—" Well, so and so is to be married at last—she has been long enough about it.—l pity the man who mar- ;i ! ries her," &c.—Females, too, will appear .' about her in masks, and make still more cutting and insulting remarks. ,After stand ing thus for an hour and a half, the Ordeal • is ended, the throng is dispersed, and the • wedding takes_place in the presence of the - immediate friends of the = parties. After a - dinner party, the guests approach the hos tess, wbo stands in. the middle of the room, and each returns thanks. This beautiful custom _prevails even among - the simple peasant 'families. After the meal is over, ~ the children approach their mother and ta king her by the hand, say, "Thank you ma'am." The guest, if one there be, mere ly "Thanks." - SCHOOL CHARACTER. Every schoolboy has a character. Let us go among the group of them and all doubts will vanish. There is.•selfish Harry, lying Tom, slovenly Peter," gluttonous Jim, sly Charley, cowardly Dick, and fighting Jack ; as well as generous George, truthful Joseph, and honest Bob. Ask for evidence that these descriptions are truly applied, and we shall find the same rules of judging are adopted here that are adopted among grown men.— There is a commandinc , b public sentiment in every play-ground and the same right prin ciples that secure for a grown man, and a great man, the respect and confidence of his tellow citizens, will—other things being equal—secure for a boy the love and confi dence of other, boys. A long face may be put on—a fawning or hypocritical' boy may play a game with an easy and credulous teacher, and for a while retain a false place in his estimation. But the veil is too thin. The true character comes mit broadly in the play-ground or on the ice, and the boy„that deserves to be loved is loved., As it is among the-school-boys so it is all the world over. An honest and virtuous) man may sometimes be unjustly suspected; and the breath of the slanderer may tarnish for a moment au innocent repuuition, but theright side comes up sooner or later, and truth tri umphs.
