complaint in that respect-that is, no general
complaint so far as he is concerned. I do not
think there has been any ground of complaint
in that respect.
Q. Has there been any misunderstanding
with regard to the conduct of the war, in any
particular, between you and the Secretary OF
War, since you have been in command?
A. Never any expressed to me. Inever had
any reason to suppose that any fault was found
with anything I had done. So far as the Secre-
tary of War and myself are concerned, he has
never interfered with my duties never thrown
any obstacles in the way Of any supplies have
called for. He hAs never detailed course OF
campaign to me, and never inquired what
was going to do. He has always seemed salts
fed with what did, and heartily co-operatsd
with me.

Jewish Marriage Celebrations.

Last Sunday. May 14th. was sacred among
the Jews as the Lag-Ber-on,er, especially set
apart for the performance of marriage cere.
monies. Twenty or thirty marriages were
celebrated in New York city among the disci.
pies of the Jewish faith, some occurring at the
synagogues, but more at the homes of the
brides-elect. In the synagogue of the "Con.
gregation of the Children of Jeshuru," 20.
Bnai Lshureus," the nuptial ceremonies of Mr..
A. 8. Cohen, editor of the Je,oiM Record. with
the lady to whom he had been affianced, took
place., The celebration is described in the
Erening Post as follows:
At precisely o'clock the bridegroom en-.
tered the hall, and advancing to the chapcel
was greeted in turn by Rabbi Raphael and the
chazan or seer, who were standing at the read
ing desk awaiting his appearance. The con.
tract OF marriage written in Hebrew, stipulat-
ing the rights and obligations of the parties
was produced and subscribed by the bride.

gentlemen. The bridegroom then retired from
the hall. A few moments afterwards the cha
zan, standing before the desk with his back to.
ward the audience, all heads being covered in
Difference to the solemnity of the place and the
occasion, chanted an invocation. Responses
were made by choir of boys, who were
seated at his right, and by several devout men
in the congregation.
Four young men advancing, took from the
chanel the chupet or canopy, which was of red
cloth, and elevating it by stats at the corners,
bore it out in 'front.' The bridegroom reap.
peared. and was saluted by the chazan with an
ode of welcome He<Rok his place on the
southern side, under auopy, and the Rabbi
advancing, took his sind on the northern
side. A Slight noise from the remoter corner
attracted attention. The door opened, and the
bride, elegantly clad and covered with the
white veil, came out, followed by o file of wo-
men, and advanced to her place under the can.
opy at the east. The chaZan greeted this pro-
cession with an epithalamium-a song which
was given with great earnestness. The audience
grouped close around, in some confusion. but
resumed their seats, when, after he had con.
cluded, Rabbi Raphael directed them to do so-

the alliance; after which he spoke also to the

o, don't 20 in tonight, john
Now, husband, don't 20 in!
TO spend our only shilling, John,
Would be cruel sin.
There's not loaf at home, John,
There's not coal, you know
Though with hunger I am faint, John,
And cold comes down the snow,
Then don't 60 in tonight,
All, John, you must remember
And, John, I can't forget
When never foot of yours, John,
Was in the alehouse set.
Ah. those were happy days, John,
No quarrels then we knew,
And none were happier in our lane
Than l. dear John, and you;
Then don't 60 in tonight
You will not 60 John, John, I mind,
When we were courting, few
Had arm as strong, or step as firm,
Or cheek as red as you;
But drink has stolen your strength, John
And paled your cheek to white,
Has tottering made your young, firm tread
And bowed your manly height.
You'll not 60 in tonight?
AOu IL uOs ~ III 1uluk Oh LQc Gay
That made me, John, your wife.
What pleasant talk that day we had
Of all our future life!
Of how your steady earnings, John,
No wasting should consume.
But weekly some new comfort bring
10 deck our happy room;
Then don't 60 in tonight.
To see US, John, as then we dressd,
SO tidy, clean and neat
Brought out all eyes to follow us
As we went down the street.
All, little thought our neighbors then,
And we as little thought,
That ever, John, to rags like these
By drink we should be brought;
You won't 60 In to night?
And will you go? II not for me,
Yet for your baby stay
You know, John, not taste of food
Has passed my lips to-day
And tell your father, little one,
'Tis mine your life hangs on,
You will not spend the shilling, John!
You'll give it him? Come, John,
Come home with us to night!
