Mr.. Freeman, however, exercised the pecu-

declined to fulfil his engagement with the
Hartford people, but returned to his charge
in Brooklyn, a very large majority of

READING, Pa, May %, 1880
Mr. EDToR:-The "unterrifed and I'M
washed Democracy" of this Germanic quar-
ter are in great tribulation because of the
grand Democratic break down" at Charles
ton. There is an intense feeling existing
here against Douglas, and should he be
nominated at Baltimore he will not take
well among the honest portion of the vot-
ers of old Berks The Republicans, on
Saturday last, fired salute of one hun
dred guns, in honor of the Chicago nomi-
nations. Seward is admired for his tai
ents, learning, and craftsmanship, but they
say he is toe radical The Democrats
ardently desired his nomination, thinking
they would have no trouble in defeating
him, as Pennsylvania is noted for her
doughfaceism; and with that element
against him Mr. Seward could never have
carried the State had he received the NOM
nation
There is considerable excitement among
the colored portion of our citizens, origin
ating from card published this morning
in the daily paper, by one of the former
members of the A. NJ. E. Church, accusing
the elder in charge of the Reading and
adjoining circuit with conduct unbecoming
minister of the meek and lowly Jesus.
There is some talk of calling public
meeting in relation to it. The A. M. E.
Conference to which he belongs will meet
on the LIST of June, and his case will be
brought before that body.
Business here, as a general thing, is very
dull. Our mills, FORCES, and machine

ifesting itself by works. A couple of
weeks ago, Mr.. A. Cuthbert, son of a for
mer Senator of Georgia, arrived here from
that State, accompanied by five colored
freedmen whom he had emancipated before
leaving the South. Mr.. Cuthbert has set
tied on farm about four miles north of
Paterson, where he employs his freedmen,
giving them the current wages for their Ia
Dor. These FIVE, it is said, are all that re-
main with him out of seventy-one third
of his estate-the rest having been eman-
cipated and removed to Liberia.
Besides the above, mention of the sue
cess of our singing and writing schools, a
donation for the benefit of the pastor of
Zion, and the alarming prevalence of small

gained him many sympathizers here as
we'll as in other parts where the U. G. r.
R. has agencies, and it is the opinion of all
that he has acted in this case as heretofore,
endeavoring to befriend the anti-slavery
cause and its institutions.
The African Civilization movement has
but few friends in this quarter, which
am very sorry to ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS such
is the case. As for myself, am an ar
dent admirer of the association, and from
the present shall contribute to its support.
Seeing it supported by such men as the
Rev. II. II. Garnet and others, l am led
to believe more confidently than ever that
its designs and principles are commenda-
BILE and just. While l am penning this
short paragraph, fine healthy young man
is passing down the street. His trade is
shoemaking. During last winter he be-
came tired of SO poor an occupation, and
being of an aspiring disposition, he sells
his tools, and goes to waiting in hotel.
Some few months ago the busy season
for that profession in Harrisburg was over,
and since then he has been without work
at least five days out of six. If that man
was in Africa and placed in the same po-
sition, the letters he would write home to
big America, as the natives call it, would
be enough to not only open the hearts, but
the pockets of many, to bring the poor
fellow back to the home of his childhood,
America, the land of the free But he is
not in Africa, he is here, among his friends
and relatives, and his case Is most deplo-
rable one. Speak to that man of Africa,
its civilization and results, and he will
spurn the thought. NJ

was stricken out as incompetent against
her, and she was discharged. The testi-
mony of Baker against N. B. Speights be-
ing deemed admissible, the court ordered
the defendant to give bail in the sum OF
one thousand dollars, to answer at the
Court of Sessions to the charge of know
ingly marrying the wife of Cyrus Baker"
The defendant obtained bail, and his
trial will take placein July.
A lamentable circumstance occurred on
the 22d ult. to Messrs. Brown & Dennis,
proprietors of one of the largest livery sta
bles in this city. Seven horses, valued at
two hundred dollars each, were poisoned
by having arsenic thrown into their food
Two Irishmen named Burke and Doyle
were in their employ short time previous
to the occurrence, but in consequence of a
dispute with one Of the proprietors they
had been discharged. These men were
both arrested on suspicion, but the former
was discharged for want of sufficient evil
dence. The latter, however, on the strength
of the testimony of the druggist where the
arsenic was obtained, was committed to
answer the charge at the criminal court.
Messrs Brown & Dennis are both colored
men. Their livery stable is one of the
most popular in the city, and there is much
sympathy expressed in their behalf by the
community.

HALL.-On the 26th of April, 1860, Mrs.
Cecilia NJ. Hail. in the 9th year of her age, relct
of the late George Hail.
She was an amiable and interesting young wo-
man, and we have been called upon to mingle our
tears, in sympathising communion, with those en-
deared to her by the strongest ties of nature. We
have unexpectedly been deprived of one whose
gentle and unassuming manners had endeared her
to large circle of acquaintance. As falls the
opening rose beneath the sudden blast, was
she unexpectedly taken from among us, in the
prime of womanhood, health and vigor. By her
death an aged and heart broken mother has been
deprived of all that was dear to her in life-an
only daughter who was ever kind, affectionate,
obedient and indulgent, and onC whose loss can
never be replaced. May she submissively kiss
the Christening rod and find consolation in Him
who gave and in Him who has taken, and exclaim,
"Thy will be done !" blessed is the name of the
Lord !" Our loss is her eternal gain. Her asso-
ciates have lost kind, true, faithful and well
tried friend. Inc various DeneHclal SOcleCleS OF
which she was member have lost useful and
much beloved associate, and one whose amiable
department and disposition endeared her to all
who had public or private intercourse with her.
She was attentive to business, just and upright
with her associates. Her death has left melan-
cholly void which cannot soon be filled. But We
will not mourn, although she has thus been taken,
and our prospects, as in moment blighted, we
yet find consolation in the hope and full assurance
that she now rests in peace from all her labors,
and her works do follow after Peace to her ashes.
And while we weep" as Jesus wept,
She " shall sleep" as Jesus slept.
With her Saviour she shall rest,
Crowned and glorifed, and blest.

And willow branches wave
In holy balm the air pervades,
Around our dear Cecelias grave.

Mr.. EDITOR AS our city has been
somewhat neglected in the "Anglo," l
thought would take the liberty of saying
something in reference to it. 1t is situated
about 140 miles from your city, and has
one of the finest harbors in the United
States. The Pequot House, situated at
the mouth of the harbor, is constantly filled
with visitors in the summer season, and is
acknowledged to be one of the finest sum-
mer resorts in the country. There are
about 200 colored persons here, some of
whom are in very comfortable circum-
stances We have a few mechanics, but
the majority are of the laboring class. The
young men have formed a glee club, con-
sisting of Messrs, j. and j. Brayton, A.
and J. Anderson, w. Anderson, l. G. Con-
nor, and others.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 5, 1860
Mr.. ED:ToR:-The past fortnight has
been very barren of such news as might
perhaps interest you or your readers. Sac
ramento at this time seems to have taken
precedence for morsels of scandal, although
this community may by no means be con-
sidered more moral An epidemic Of lille
gal or improper marriages in both cities
seems to have prevailed to an alarming ex-
tent of late. 1t is very often inexpedient
to note some of the marriages taking place
here, or to inquire infinitely the time,
place, and when their occurrence, unless
one wishes to be considered too inquisitive;
also, from the fact that not few of our
female residents have acquired and are
blessed with the protection of two husbands
since their advent here. Hence the mex
pediency or indelicacy of interfering by
reporting such complicated cases. A re-
arrest upon new affidavit in the N. Bass
Speights- Baker bigamy case, seems to have
been made in Sacramento, the result of
which appeared in the DAILY Bee" news
