Startling Disclosures < onreriiliig the
Atlantic Cable Kxpeeteil.
Boston, Dec. 16.—A meeting of the
merchants of this city is to be held here
to morrow, at which we learn that more
asti linking fraudulent representations
of the working of tho Atlantic Cable
will be exposed, and measures will be
adopted to defeat the scheme of a grand
Telegraph monopoly in tho United
States, by the construction of a new Ca
ble line to Nova Scotia, in pursuance of
Mr. Gisborne’s proposal, and of new
lines extending from New York west
wardly.
We learn that the most conclusive
evidence exists, that the whole repre
sentation made in the papers of this
country, and simultaneously in the Lon
don papers, on the 17th of August last
respecting the transmission of the alle
ged, first message of the Directors given
•‘Glory to God," &c., and of the Queen's
Message to the President of the United
States was false, and a fraud upon the
public of two countries ; and that oth
er no less fraudulent representations of
the working of the cable, are suscepti
ble of proof and exposure.
Congress will be called on to invite
from the President information of the
time when the Queen's message was
first informally,and subsequently under
an alleged transmission of it over the
cable communicated to him.
This is of no small interest to the
Governments of both the United States
and of Great Britain, and to tho people
of tho two countries rich developments
are forthcoming.
The money is all subscribed for Gis
borne’s line, and it will he completed to
Halifax early in the Spring.
Boora and Shoes. —The United States!
Economist has collected some interest
ing statistics on tho manufacture of
boots and shoes in this country. The I
quantity required for the consumption!
of the United States is not far from!
75,000,000 pairs per annum. Os these [.
12,000,000 pairs are made in Massachu- j
setts, at a value of $40,000,000 per an-j
Min, and they employ 4-5,000 men and!
.32,82(1 women. One half of this em-j
ploymenl is in Lynn, which is the
largest shop in the United States. Tho]
next is in Philadelphia, which makes
$4,000,000, mostly fine work, while]
that of Lynn is coarse work. Tho pro- 1
duction is great in every city, town and i
hamlet of the Union, and the whole!
value is not less than $80,000,000 per]
annum, In Philadelphia there are 457!
manufacturers, whose aggregate sales]
amount to $4,141,000, and Philadelphia
sells perhaps 810,000,000 worth of Eas
tern work in addition.
Mexico Satisfies Spain.— According
to advices from Havana, Gen. Garza has
made satisfactory atonement to Spain
for the outrages and injuries done loi
Spanish residents in Mexico, and Presi-j
dent Zuloaga had given the French
Minister the fullest assurance that the '
demands of the Spanish Government
against Mexico are to be complied with,
including the payment of the Spanish l
debt, and indemnity to the families ofj
the Spaniards who were the victims of
the massacre of Cuernavaca. The “war"
then, which has been so long threaten-:
ed against Mexico, ends in a peace be
fore hostilities commence. Spain did
not think it prudent to endanger Cuba j
by any such Quixotte act as a war upon
Mexico, with the fillibusters about rea
dy to help the latter.

CUPID IN A QUANDARY.
BY THE eOLONEL.
I was in love once. Os course she
was a charming creature that had won
my sudden affections. I never knew a
lady to be anything else in the eyes of
her lover. For my own part I thought
Angelina was an angel. I have grown
older since, and have discovered exact
ly the difference between a woman and
one of those serial indescribables. At
that time I was too impressible and im
passive to be observant.
I originally saw Angelina in LTnion
Park, and my heart, inflammable as
tinder, was in a blaze in an instant.—
My earnest gaze attracted her attention
Finally it confused her. In this confu
sion she run against the end of one of
the benches and fell upon the walk. I
flew to her rescue, and lifted her to her
! feet. She was not hurt, though much
I mortified. I soothed and consoled her.
In doing this I called her Miss Julia,
when she corrected me by stating that
her name was Angelina. That was the
! mode I adopted to ascertain the name
I of my inamorata.
Two days after that I met Angelina
in the Park again. It was not exactly
by appointment. Os course she would
have been shocked at such a tiling, and
I almost a stranger to her. But, as I
left her before, I had said that I always
took a tour of Union Park at such an
; hour every afternoon, and I could not
help adding how delighted I should be
were accident at any time to bring her
steps in that direction about tiiat period
:of the day. Accident did do it. When
we parted that time I was silly enough
; to think that I had created a tender
feeling in her bosom, and that accident
might favor another interview.
Two days more elapsed, and I felt
j sure that she would come. But she did
! not. I remained in the park until
j night set in and then I despaired. Just
| as I was departing, and in a very mel
j ancholy mood of mind, vexed at the in
! constancy of woman-kind in general,
and of Angelina in particular, I paused.
] There was a cloak entering one of the
; gates that struck me as familiar. I
watched it—l followed it. It was just!
Angelina’s height—just her walk. But |
the lady, although she observed me at
her tide, was silent. Her face was en
veloped in a thick veil. No hope of
gratifying my curiosity in that particu
-1 lar.
What shall I do? I never was ro
markable for diffidence ; so I easily con-
I viuced myself that the lady was Ange
I lina, and stepping up to her, addressed
i her by that name. She made no reply,
j except by a slight laugh. This assured
me she was indulging in a coquettish
trick. I was not to be deceived in that
manner. I persevered, therefore, rat
tling away all sorts of pretty nonsense,
and telling her in every possible delicate
manner how much I dolized her. Good
ness gracious! how eloquent I felt, and
I how happy.
In this manner we proceeded up one
street and down another, until we
reached the Second Avenue and Nme~ !
teenth street. I did not know where
Angelina lived. She never told me. ;
She had forbidden me to see her all the
way home. But I knew she lived in j
the Second Avenue. On this occasion 11
had implored my silent companion since]
it was after night, to permit me to es
cort her to the door. Silence gives con
sent, you know, and I did it.
She paused in front of a large and
noble dwelling. Good, thought I, my l
sagacity was not at fault; she is aristo
cratically connected. She placed one
little foot on the brown stone door step;
then, as if slid had changed her mind
and did not care to ring the bell in my
! campany, she proceeded to the area
| gate, opened it, and entered. I foilow
j ed, of. course. Perhaps it was a little
impudent on my part; but she turned
her head toward me as I passed in, and
I could have sworn I saw or heard a
token of invitation. That was enough
for an impulsive lover. She opened
the area door; I still pursued her. She
passed in ; so did I, closing the door af
ter me. She entered the front base
ment—a species ot sitting room--and
thence glided through into the rear
basement into the kitchen. I was close
at her heels.
| The gas was burning brightly in the
! kitchen ; but I never stopped to think
j of my dilemma, and seizing her by the
hand murmured : “Oh! Angelina, how
1 delighted you make me." She threw
j off her bonnet and veil, and whew ! she
i was a total stranger. I had never seen
[.her before. I felt at that moment the
] full force of my ridiculous position. I
] did not lose my self-possession, however.
! On the contrary I threw myself into a
chair and laughed heartily, although
my heart was rapidly making an ex
ploring expedition away down into my
boots.
My companion proved to he a good
1 looking young woman, evidently a do
] mestic in the house in question. My
assurance astonished her at first; but
] recovering herself, she asked if she
should call for assistance to pitch me
into the street. In the most insinuating
terms possible, I pointed toiler my mis
take, implored her to forgive me, and
protested that I had not tho most dis
tant idea of insulting one whom I was
convinced was as pure as she was beau !
tiful. That little piece of flattery se-i
cured my favor. She forgave me, poiu-1
! ted to the door, and desired me to go, j
as she expected every moment a mes
sage from the parlor above in regard to
lunch,
I thanked her and turned to depart.
Just as she stepped toward the kitchen
j door, I heard the sound of feet descend
ing the stairs. How should I escape?—
j Where should I fly to? Quick as thought
[ I darted into a tail closet that stood in
the corner of the room. The upper
part contained the shelves, but the low
jer part afforded me space enough to
crowd into, doubled up. The girl im
mediately closed the door on me and
buttoned it. I did not feel very com
fortable, fastened up in that box. Sup
pose I should not be let out ! But all
fear of this was lost in a still greater
apprehension, when I heard the voice
of a male individual who bad entered
the kitchen. I concluded to remain
quietly where I was.
As soon as he departed, the girl came
to me, and unbuttoning to door, told
me I had made a fortunate escape, and
added that if I did not wish to com
promise both her and myself, I had bet
-1 ter come out of that dumb-waiter and
| bo gone.
j “Dumb-waiter!" I exclaimed, “am
I in a dumb-waiter, and liable to be
hoisted up in a twinkling to the par
lor ?
Here was a fright. I uncoiled myself
to escape ; but just as I rose, away went
i the dumb waiter up toward the ceiling
with myself inside. The jar of the
| first movement threw mo back. I had
no time to recover my feet and leap. I
could but pull the door too as the box
ascended, while the paroxysm of laugh
ter that afflicted the girl in the kitchen
went to my heart, and sinote me with
feeling akien to madness. I would
have sold myself at that moment for
. three cents of any decent man's money.
‘•You may guessexaetiy how I look
ed when the dumb-waiter having
reached the dining room floor above, I
heard the sound of half a dozen voices.
Amongst them my heart recognized
that of Angelina herself, as she ex
claimed :
“Now, pa, do let us have lunch, I am
so hungry."
1 “Yes, you will,” I thought, “when
yon see the cold meat that's ready for
yon ?”—for an icy perspiration was
dropping from every pore.
There was a table set, and around it
I beheld Angelina, her father and moth
■ er, (as I presumed,) two brothers and
two sisters. Angelina shrieked and
fainted, I darted toward the door, hut
not quite in time to escape a blow from j
. tho back of a chair aimed at me by one j
; of the young gentlemen. I scrambled
i to my feet and then you should have
seen the race. Fortunately the waiter
i was just admitting a gentleman at the
’ open hall door as I reached it. Delight-
I ed at the chance I bounded past the
I visitor and made one leap to the pave
i ment, three more placed me on the
i platform of a Second avenue car just
t passing. Need I say I have never en
; tered Union Park since ? I detest tho
) spot. As to Angelina, the very thought
r of her makes my blood run cold ; and
I if you want to create belligerent feel-j
i ings in my bosom at any time, just say j
i “dumb-waiter” to me and look out.—
' That's all.
