Letter from Brunswick,

BRUNSWICK, Oct. Sd, 1852.
Dear Press :-Tenney, of the Telegraph, is
angry with you and me, rery angry, should
judge, and verify his rage is something terrible
to behold. i know nothing in nature that
would resemble it except the wrath of hyp-
ocrite who, having all along deemed his arts
successful, is suddenly made conscious of de-
lection, and becomes aware that the men
whom he meets daily, understand him thor
oughly, and know his antecedents.
He occupies fully one-third of column to-
day in venting his rage in TRADE which, to
me, sounds very much like empty, vulgar
abuse. He is old enough to know that abusive
epthets indicate only the state of mind of him
who uses them, not the character of the per-
son to whom they are applied. Bystanders
will feel sure that the truth Of your cores
pondent's communications is what has provoked
such an efl'usion of bile. l turn him over to
the next flsh-woman. / never deal in Billings
gate. So much for my share Of his vitupera-'
ton. Whether you transgressed any rule of
editorial courtesy is best known to yourself,
and you can fight your own battles. Whether
he tells the truth or something else in charac-
terizing my structures on his last weeks paper
as personal and nothing but personal" at
tack upon brother editor" your readers
kno,c, and they are numerous in
Brunswick.
p. ST. think he would get better sale for
one number of the Telegraph than usual, by
inserting my communication to you in his next
issue. His readers will then know trhat he
got SO mad about, and l dare say they would
consider it as interesting as most of the details
respecting the Tcnney family, the cows" and
8 the mare Jenny" that occupy so much space
in his columns. Pshaw! Mr.. Editor, "the
game ,rasnt worth the CANDLE" and / ask
your pardon.

They nave succeeded IN eXtorting from the
President a proclamation proclaming emanei-
patton TO the slaves of all States in rebellion
against the Government on the 1st day of
January, 1863.
1t is palpable from the terms of the procla-
nation that the President does not believe
that military necessity" exists at this time,
for cutting loose from the moorings of the
Constitution, and committing the ship of state
to the perious revolutionary waves OF negro
emancipation.
1t is unnecessary for us to say that we are
opposed to the proclamation, as well as the
schemes expected TO be subserved by its issu-
ance. We believe its PRONUNCIATION at this time
TO be both unnecessary and ill-advised.
[From the n. Y. Express-Be-Ey
The utterance of such proclamation-un-
der existing circumstances, so it seems to US.
will add 100000 rebel soldiers to the rebellion,
and be on the instant worth 10000 men to the
rebel Bragg in Kentucky.
The human mind,-so it seems to us-never
conceived policy so ,rei fitted utterly to de-
grade and destroy urhite labor, and TO reduce
The ,chite man to the lerel Of the negro, as the
whole OF this proclamation scheme.

maintains his equilibrium. While he was hui
moring the radicals in the process of degrad-

ton for which they so loudly camorcd. When
the unrelenting necessity of war compelled
him to restore that general to command. he
found it necessary to pacify this eNacting and
meddlesome faction, and he throws sop to
the baISsng three mouthed Cerberus, in the
hape of new proclamation.

Soprani grow in every country; but the

is rare in France-whereas the latter is
seldom to be found in Germany. Neither
France nor Italy possesses the contralto

so rich. The South has always been par
excellence, the birth place of more tenOrs

CUSTOMS IN SWITZERLAND.--A CORES
pondent Of the Hartford Times, writing
from Zurich, gives the following singular
customs of that region:
There are some strange and many beau.
tilul customs regarding the burial of the
dead in Europe. An Example that can be
surely numbered Il, der the first head Oc.
CURED last week in the burial OF an in.
fant, which, dying unbaptized, and altho'
the child of Christian parents, was not
allowed Christian burial, or even Il con-.
mon funeral service; it being law in the
Canton Zurich that unbaptized children
shall be buried privately and after dark,
in some unconSecratcd spot, but never in
the chnrch-yard, or the II tlowcr Garden
of God, as the corner set apart for the
sfunbcr place of the little ones is poetic
ally called.
\ student of the Zurich University
was buried yesterday. His remains were
followed to the grave by all his school
companions, who, after the body was de-
posted in the earth, repaired en- maSSe 10
fashionable city saloon, where they had
often held their scholarly carouSals in
company with the deceased; they called
for refreshments and wine, which they
partook Of in silence, and as their last
glasses were drained, all standing, they
simultaneously dashed their empty COB
lets behind them to the floor, Splintering
them, as n matter of course, into a thous-
and pieces. 1t is customary among the
students to meet together in the Old festi-
val place, in the Year succeeding the death
of a companion, on the anniversary of his
death day; his glass stands filed in its
old familiar spot; the rcvcl continues till
after midnight; they invoke the spirit Of
their departed comrade to return and
empty the untouched glass, and often uU
agine that he realty complies with their
request.
The body of an old uan was recently
followed to the grave by twenty. five chief
mourners, old gentlemen, all Of whom had
been school,fcllows of the dead They
were dressed uniformly in black with APP
propriate badges of Grape; each with a
bunch of rosemary upon his breast each
one carrying an enormous lemon in his
left hand, for what purpose, heaven
knows! But the practice of mournerS
carrying lemons at funerals prevails in
many parts Of Germany. 1t may have
some affinity with the American idea Of
an onion as prompter of sorrow. We
will trust not, however; aud will believe,
as long as We know nothing to the con
trary, that lemon is really most ap.
propriate and eloquent eXpresser of fgrief;
although we, in our country, have been
taught to regard its virtues principally as
relating to lemonade.
