Fnnueii Hall.

BosToN, January l5.-At the mass
meeting In Fanueil Hall to protest
against military interference In Louis
lana, held to-day, about three thousand
people were packed In the building.
All parties, classes and conditions were
represented. The meeting was very
orderly and great sympathy was man
Tested In the object Of the call, though
occasional disscnts from the speakers
betokened the presence Of widely diff
ferlng political elemenst. Hon. Will
liam Gray made an address denouncing
the great outrage committed against
the people of Louisiana in the recent
act Of the United States troops. 1t was
the duty of the government to entrust
its power to clear-sighted, cool-headed
officers, and II such were not selected
the people had the right 70 hold the
chief executive responsible. His re
marks were frequently cheered, and,
when abiding to General Sheridan
was Kissed. Resolutions expressive of
indignation at the course of the militia
ry in removing members of the legisla-
ture and severely denouncing Belknap
for his telegram Of approval, were very
vociferously applauded.

The minister calmly said that it
must be. He could not marry them
unless they both did truly and duly tell
him their ages-such being the regula-
ton to which he must bow. The
young man mildly responded, 'twen-
ty-six !" the young womaD-ah, the
young woman! Answer, Never
'Then you can't he married." Her
soft cheek grew white as the snow
that rests upon the mighty hills, her
eyes were filled with anguish. But
she cried, "Thirty-one." Truth like
this should have been rewarded, but it
wasn't. The bridegroom observed that
he had understood the bride was only
twenty-five, and he couldn't forgive
deceit. Farewell" he said. She re-
marked that this was justice, and they
parted forever. Which ended their re-
mote and melancholy story.

COrtina's Rebellion.

Not long since We submitted certain facts
to show that General Cortina was directly
interested in the raids made by Mexican
border rutfians upon the State of Texas.
That point has been made abundantlv clear
by recent intelligence from Brownsville. II
appears that a citizen of Mexico, named
Trevino. discovered party of cattle thieves
fresh from an invasion across the river
upon American soil. He recognized them
as servants and hangers-on of General Cor
tina. and commanded the party TO sur
render and follow him before a magistrate
TO answer tor the otfense. Instead OF doing
this they fred upon Senior Trevino. The fire
was returned aud one man killed. Among
the prisoners was the head man OF Cortina
rancho. When the General was informed
of the occurrence he raised force. hung
the magistrate shot Senior Trevino and
set the whole party Of thieves and muir
derers at liberty. General Cortina has been
ordered to report at the City of Mexico for
duty. Instead OF doing this, he has re-
signed his commission. This means open
defiance of the Mexican authorities. and
the Inauguration of Il war upon his own
responsibility. 1t iNestimated that he has
from 20O0 to $500 men under his command.
Nor are they to be despised as soldiers.
Some OF them, to be sure, are mere coward
aly sneak thieves, murderers of women and
children. But in the ranks are also bad.
desperate men, the refuse of the late war
in this country, and refugees from civilized
life and from punishment for atrocious
crimes. These men are brave and reckless.
They are banned and barred, the gallows
is before them, and hence they will fight to
the bitter end A party of Texas militia
recently were defeated by gang Of these
cut throats. And Cortina is just the man
to lead such . party Of miscreants. He
offers them plumber by smuggling and
cattle lifting, and hence their de-
vOtiOn to his cause. But as Cortina has
now flung his glove in the face Of the Mex
lean authorities they will be compelled to
