TCorrespondence Of the Bedford Gazette.
PHIL'A., May 18th, 1869.
Don't you feel like Maying to day, Mr..
Editor? How l pity you if you are
cabbined, cribbed, confined; for May
never had days more mellow and
warm, and we throw away ourselves
into their mild embarce, and dream Of
olden times, of green fields, and the.
lane thro' the meadow, and thori.-
tree by the rivers bank. Those
times viii come back and look as sweet
as ever, altho' we look at them first
now thro' cigar smoke. 1t gives them
the fragrance of new mown hay. We
don't dream long of May days and
warm evenings with shadows long and
slant under the green sycamore and
vocal with the noise of frogs. We are
awakened from our reverie by the
merry laugh and shout of little girls
below our window who play thro' the
yard with the abandon of childhood
plucking the daisy and butter cups to
weave in their hair. But, we sat
down to tell you that we have been
crowded and jammed with work, and
can scarce find an hour to write you.
In addition to regular duties and cor
respondence for three papers, we have
multiplied engagements such as pre-
clude the pleasure of dropping you a
line occasionally. Pretty soon we are
off on brush for couple weeks and
what we shall see and hear will not
interest your readers. We therefore
take French leave for the present,
hoping we may soon be able to resume
our urcorrespondence. In the meantime,
we bear testimony to the qualification
it gives US to receive the visits of our
old friend, the Gazette. We will give
hearty welcome fifty two times in a
year, throwing in an invitation to the
Editors to come and see me three
hundred and sixty-fye times in year,
and the assurance ofa cordial reception.
Allow me to conclude in the pathetic
words of another
I've oftimes eoldly bowed, and saId-'Fare-
well ;" sa
When every life-throb was an age of pain
l We seen eternities of feelings swell
From Beautys dark bright eye as tho twould
drain
Loves peerless fount of tear-gems But to tell
Such parting scenes affects my heart AMI brain,
And therefore, reader, will part with you,
Just as I would with an old worn-out shoe"

The Cuban Revolution.

The New York Sun has the follow
ing:
Private information has been fur
nished to the Spanish consulate in this
city that new expeditions, with arms
and men, for the Cuban patriots are to
leave the coast of Florida next week.
The facts were communicated, it is
said, to the Spanish Minister, who sent
special dispatches on the subject to the
consul in this city, whom he instruct
ed to take action at once, as the vessels
selected for these expeditions are fit
ting out in this city.
The utmost caution is exercised in
relation to the enlistment of recruits
for Cespedes' army. The officers have
decided to take only such men as have
served with distinction in the late war
There are thousands of veterans in
New York and Brooklyn who are anx-
ious to fight for Cuban Independence,
and the names of many Of them have
been enrolled. preparatory to making
a formal call upon them TO embark on
future expeditions.
The leaders of the Junta have pur-
chased large quantity of arms, which
are to be sent to Cespedes next week.
Two steamers, both fast sailers, have
been purchased by the Junta, and they
may soon be heard of as privateers,
which will do just such service for Gu
ba as the Alabama did for the South.

might have done still better. But

GOD is up to l43. What does this
mean? When Grant was inaugurated

any appreciation of the currency, but

it. 1t now takes more greenbacSs to

SOME radical hounds are bowling
because the Democratic Mayor of Phil

are good enough if they can be blar-

but when offices are to be given out,
the old spirit of Know Nothingism

distressing Calamity.

On last Friday afternoon the fifth
story of large bonded warehouse
belonging to Joseph Finch q Co., Pitts
burg, fell with u terrible crash, carry
ing with it every remaining story of
the structure. About seven thousand
barrels of whiskey were stored in the
building which were broken into frag-
ments. Three men were buried in the
ruins. The building was but recently
erected, and cost $780, 900.
The cause of the accident is attribu-
ted to the shortness of the ioice, they
failing to rest prop erly on the walls.
