March 2,1861. 41 tf. man and dreaming (as some single men do) of double bliss yet destined to arrive I went to a concert at the Music Hall of Boston. Music is poetically and proverbial ly ‘the food of love,’ and in niy sentimen tal state 1 consumed a good deal of it, not that I bad any object in view. Aline was abstract love; 1 cultivated it, I in creased by stock, so flint I might Lave a good deal of the tender passion on band whenever I saw an eligible opportunity of investing it. Well, to return to the con cert, it was crowded to excess, and the rush on leaving to reach cabs and carri ages was very great. I wore on that mem orable night a blue coat with brass but tons, and Mattered myself there were worse looking men in the room. I tell you can didly I admired myself, and next to my sell, the other pa it}' 1 was most struck with was a tine girl with dark eyes and black hair, who sat with some young friends a few forms distant. I hoped she noticed me and my bine coat with brass buttons. I looked at her often enough to attract her attention to both; and be ing. as my friends would say, in rather a spoon ri/ state, worked myself in a tower ing passion—of lore. But how was I to come at the object of my admiration, fori was a diffident as devoted, ‘as shy as 1 was vain,’ as an over-candid friend once said. Hail Columbia, which concluded the concert, surprised me as unprepared as on my first glance to improve the occasion, ami the company were shoaling out while I stood mutely gaping after the object ol my love at first sight. She and her party- eddied for a while by the inner door of the concert room, and were then drawn out into the retiring current and lost to sight. I followed quicly after, lest I should lose forever all opportunity of identifyin my idol; but alas !—the lights were few and so far between, that ‘no glimpse of my star could I get.’ I pushed and el bowed fiercely thiough the crowd, with view of getting to the outer door before my fair one’s party had emerged, and thn gaining once more a sight of mv sweeting ‘Hang it!’I muttered, impatiently, as I felt a tug at iny coat tail, and was in stantly conscious of one of my hind but tons having hitched to some lady’s dress ; my progress was suddenly arrested. ‘How provoking,’ said I, as £ was brought to a stand, for I could not push on without losing a button or tearing a dress ; ‘how provoking the modern fashion, a lady now has as many hoops and tentacles about her apparel as a sea anemone.’ It was with some irritation that I stopped to un do the button, but my r hurry made the task more difficult, and instead of undoin only- bungled and more twisted the loop around the button ‘Please to let me try-,’ said the lady herself, as I bungled over the business she ungloved her hand, it was a sweet white hand ; so I looked at her face. Stars and garters! but it was a fair one, black hair and dark eyes I was in pursuit of. As she stooped over the. entangled button, a slight blush tinted her cheek. Ob. it was delicious. I hoped she never would undo the loop, and indeed she would not, for her fingers were twitching nervously', and my heart was beating audibly ; I tried to help her; our fingers met. ‘Please to make way there,* slianted gruff voice behind. We were blocking uj» tLo pnBBrtgc; was there ever sticb an unlucky spot for so lucky an entangle ment ? ‘You hinder the people from going out, Annie,’ exclaimed one of her companions with some asperity ; ‘plague upon the tire some loop, break it ;’ and suiting the ac tion to the word, the speaker leaned for ward, caught the sleeve of her beautiful friend’s dress in one hand, and my coat tail in the other, and giving a quick and decided tug, severed us. The crowd bore on, and %ve were sepa rated ; not, however, before I gave my ‘star’ a look which I intended to speak volumes. I thought she did not seem un conscious of my meaning—our eyes met I knew, and this was the only’ consolation left me, for immediately afterward I lost bet and her party to view in the darkness outside. That night I scarcely closed my’ eyes, thinking of inv ‘bright particular star,’ and what means I should employ to find her out. 1 knew little of the town, which was a large one, and to expect to know the name of my fair one by- mere description was hopeless. There doubt less must he a great many with dark eyes within ‘bills of mortality’ as elsewhere. My love fit grew more and more violent in the course of the day-, but tired out at length with my search, I returned to the hotel, and took ont my dress coat from my portmanteau to feed my Uame even with the contemplation of the inanimate button that had detained the ‘black-eyed divinity'’ so long. It was with no little delight I now discovered what did not be fore catch my eye—a fragment of the silk loop of her dress still adhered to the but ton twisted ronnd the shank. 1 pressed it to my lips ; it was lilac in color—and I stooped to gently disentangle it from the brass as though it were a tress of my loved one’s hair, when something clinked in the skirt pocket. I supposed I had left some money there, for in my perturbation and excitement I omitted to search the coat on taking it off the night before. 1 thrnst my hand into the pocket. Gracious me ! What did I behold, what did I take out. ? —a gold chain and bracelet ? You could have brained ine with my la dy’s fan. I saw at a glance how matters stood ; in the excitement and Hurry of un doing the loop from my button, the lady had undone the clasp of her own bracelet, which had not unnaturally fell into the coat skirt with which she was engaged, and, doubtless, on missing it, instead of regarding me as romantic, she put me down as one of the swell mob, who had pur posely entangled myself in her dress to rot her of her jewelry. Here was an anti-heroic position to find one’s self—when I wished to be consider ed the most devoted of knights, to be re membered only as the most expert of pickpockets. Was ever an honest lover in such a plight \ and to make it worse, I could not see how I was to escape from this inevitable dilemma. 1 must go down to the grave remembered only' in the dear one’s mind as the nefarious purloiner of her bracelet. To find her out was impos sible ; hut a bright idea struck me as my eyes lighted a newspaper lying on the coffee-room table. I sat down and wrote an advertisement in the following words : “If thelady whose dregs got entau'led in a gen tleman's coat bntton in leaving the concert last Wednesday, Will call or send to the Tremont Ho tel, she will hear something to her advantage ” There, I thought, as I gave the adver tisement to the boy, and five shillings to pay for the insertion in The Traveller— there, if that will not give me a cine to escape from a very unpleasant dilemma, and at the same time to know who my en chantress is, the fates most indeed be very unpropitions #2 impatiently, the appearance of the newspaper next morning. It was brought to iny room damp from the press, and I then read in all the glory of large type, mv interesting announcement—but, my stars ! with what an advertisement was it followed in the very- same column. 1 only wonder that my hair did not stand on end, as I read as follows : REWARD—LOST OR STOLEN, ON the night of the Concert, at the Hall, a GOLD CHAIN BRACELET. It is thought to have been taken trom the lady’s arm by a pick pocket of gentlemanly appearance, who wore a blue coat with brass buttons, and kept near the lady on her leaving the hall. Anyone giving sticb information as will lead to the recovery of the bracelet, or the capture of the thi-f. (if it was stolen.) will receive the above reward on apply ing at No. 7 Chambers Place. Here was a pretty plight—to be adver tised in the public papers as a pickpocket, when my oniv crime was like Othello’s— that of “Loving not wisely—bnt too well.” My determination, however, was quick ly adopted. I went up stairs, put on the very identical coat so accurately described, and taking the paper in iny hand, pro ceeded to No. 7 Chambers’ Place. I knocked at the door, and asked the servant who answered, the name of the family. Having heard it, I said,‘Is Miss Raymond inf’ ‘Yes, Sir,’ replied the servant woman, ‘who shall 1 say wants her?’ •Tell her,’ I replied, ‘that the pickpock et, with a gentlemanly' address, and blue coat with brass buttons, who stole her bracelet, is here, and wishes to return it to her.’ The woman stared at me as though I were mad, but on repeating my request to her, she went and delivered my message. Soon there come out not my fair one With all that's best of dark and bright, Meeting in aspect and eye ; but a stalwart brother. ‘That,’ 1 said, handing him the brace let, ‘is M iss Raymond’s property'; and though, as yon perceive, I wear the blue coat with brass buttons and am flattered to think manners are not ongentlemanly, 1 am hound in candor to say’ I am no pickpocket.’ ‘Then, sir, you shall have the reward,’ said the brother, taking out his purse. ‘No,’ I replied, ‘for strange as it may appear, though I am no pickpocket, I stole the lady’s bracelet.’ The man looked puzzled ; but when I told the truth, and pointed to the adver tisement in the same paper, as a pooof that I did not want the property, he laugh ed heartily' at the whole story, and at hi sister’s description of the gentlemanly pickpocket. “Well,’ he said, ‘yon had better walk in and have tea with us, aud my sister will be able to say whether she can speak as to your identity, after which it will be time enough to canvass the propriety of sending for a constable.’ You may rest assured I accepted the invitation. Need I go further with the story'. The lady (to use the words of tliead- vertisement) captured the pickpocket.— The bachelor’s button no longer adorns my r blue coat, and I have now framed and glazed over the fire-place the advertise ment in which I am publicly described by my’ own wife as a ‘pickpocket with a gen tlemanly address.’ When I charge her with the libel she always does what she lias this moment done—par damages for the slauder in any amount of kisses, de claring though not a pickpocket, I was a thief and stole her heart and pocketed her bracelet.

In this age of (Quackery, it is indeed grateful to meet with a genuine, unadul terated, and highly serviceable article, such as I have the pleasure to introduce to the reading public. Prof. MeSpadeen, is too modest a man to sound his own praise.—I have procured such testimo nials as will carry conviction and confi dence to the popular mind and heart. The following are only a few selections from the Port-loiio of the eminent Professor: The Everlasting, Ercr-readi/, Excelsior Glue ! E. E. E. By the use of this Glue, Communities, Societies and quarrelsome couples stick together.

He has offered half his immense fortune for the dog’s tail to be used in rais- 5 sunken vessels from the sea. Yours, with awe, S From a Baldwin Blue. CAMP, Norfolk. May Gth, 1861. Dear Prof.—Your Everlasting, Ever- ready. Excelsior Glue, is working wonders with onr boys here. Let ine tell you a plain, unvarnished tale. AVc left Mill edgeville the last Friday in April. It was a day long to be remembered. When 1 went to tell my’ gal good-bye, I could’nt get away from her, to save my life. I stuck to her like I had growed there. But when 1 looked up to the mantel piece and saw a bottle of your glue upon it, all was easily explained. I made the nigger gal toss it out in the yard. I then got as far as the steps, stuck again—it was no go; and, sir, it was not nutil the bottle and contents were tossed over the fence, that I could get my feet from the steps of that house. I expected to make a speech at the Depot. I commenced, “Ladies and Gentlemen,” but that was all I could say. My tongue stuck in my throat, and the words stuck worse. It was no go again. The mystery was explained when, a short time afterwards, my file leader took out a bottle with some whiskey in it, and offet- ed me a drink. Then was the my'Stery explained plain enough. The glue had been used up a month, bnt the bottle had 'nt lost its power. We are trying it here on Bill, (yon know Hill how he lies) to see if he can be made to stick to the troth. If he does, you will get a bucket full of cer tificates from hero. Gratefully, dee.,. A BLUE. is “All Fools Day,” this note does not partake of the character of such epistles as love-sick Swains, languishing ladies, and mischievous idlers usually' indite No, sir; this is to inform y T ou that the application of your blessed Glue to my darling Wil liam Henry Augustus, has kept him by my side until the “wee short hours ayant the twal,” every evening for a week. How delightful, dear Professor. My beau catch ers which I found so much trophic to keep in order with soap, are now permanently arranged by one application of your En chanting Glue. Neither the avocations of the day, nor the friction of the pillow, the least disarranges them. 1 have been told that the virtues of your Glue are such as to make the proudest and gayest dam sel adhere to her old bonnet. Now, I am so fully convinced of its potent powers, that 1 shall not make the experiment. If it will only stick the colors of my rongt* saucer imperisbably upon my cheeks, I shall never cease to herald to the world, the unapproachable, unequalled virtues of your most wonderful preparation. P. S. Mother says she intends to try it to stick her peas. 1 suppose you will say niy r postscript is the mo-t sensible part of my letter. Yours faithfully. LEONORA LOVELESS. Principal Agent, Abe Linkhom—Bar racks, Washington City. . From the Atlanta Confederacy. ARRIVAL OF THE HON ALEXANDER H STEPHENS—HIS ELOQUENT SPEECH. Mr. Stephens arrived in the 12 o’clock train on Tuesday night, and was enthusi astically received by a large crowd, who had assembled at the depot in anticipation of his arrival Before the cars had ceased to move, it was known all through the crowd that he was on board, and, amid vo ciferous calls and cheers, he appeared on the platform of the ca* - *, and addressed the assembled audience as follows: My Fellow-Citizens}—I think the conn- try may be considered safe, since our in terest in its welfare has brought you out at this hour of the night. I have just re turned from a mission to old Virginia. It will be gratifying to you, I know, to state that she is not only ont of the Union, but site is a member of the Southern Confed eracy, and has sent delegates to onr Con gress, now assembled. North Carolina will have her delegates with us, also, in a few days. Her Legislature meets to-mor row, and I doubt not she will he out of the Union by Saturday night. The fires which first kindled the old .Mecklenburg De claration of Independence arc again burn ing throughout all her domain. From ail that we have learned in the last few davs, Tennessee will soon pnt herself on the side of the South, and be a new star in ourshi ning galaxy'. The news is also good from Kentucky, though 1 have nothing official from there. A few of her public inen are trying to put the brakes down on the peo ple: bnt they seem unwilling to submit any longer. From Missouri the news is most cheering, and Arkansas will soon be with us But the best of all is, that Maryland— gallant little Maryland—right under the guns of Lincoln, and the threats of Blair to make it a free State, if the blood of the last white man had to he shed in accom plishing it—has resolved to a man, to stand by the South! She will be arrayed against Abolitionism, and cling to the South; and if she has not delegates with us now, she is in open defiance of Lincoln and his gov ernment, and will soon he with us, even by revolution. The cause of Baltimore is the cause of ns aU, from the Atlantic to the Rio Grande. Her hands must be held up, and triumph must he assured to her. • Yon have probably seen it stated that overtures of peace had been made by Lord Lyons, and perhaps by other parties. I tell you it is not true, and is only intend ed to deceive you. It is also said that the Lincoln Government has done so. This may be true; but if it is, it is all for treach ery, as they gave traitorous assurances to our Commissioners at Washington. For weeks they were kept there under the most positive assurances of a pacific policy and intentions towards us—all with the basest motives that cau actuate a treach erous heart. If peace propositions are made by them now, I conjure you not to trust them fora single moment—they only intend to deceive and betray—to lull your energies and suspicions, till they secure some cowardly advantage. Our enemies say that they only want to protect the public property; and yet I have it from unquestioned authority, that they have mined all the public buildings in Washington—the Capitol and all the other Departments—for the purpose of de stroying them. They have called out 7(5.- 000 men, they say to protect the public property now in their possession, and to retake and protect that which they’ have been forced to give up; yet, wherever they are now, they have prepared to destroy the property, and have destroyed, Or at tempted to destroy, all that we have com pelled them to relinquish, because of their intentions to use it for the purpose of sub jugating us. Sumter was mined to be blown up on leaving it. Much of the prop erty was burned up at Harper’s berry, in hastily vacating that place; and an at tempt was made to burn up not only all the public property, on leaving Gosport S &TV Yard, bu^tne whole city of Nor folk. This is one of the most remarkable instances on record, where Providence was on our side. Plans were laid to burn up the Nary Yard and the whole city. The incendiary fires were lighted; and, if their intentions had succeeded, such a conflag ration has never been witnessed on this continent, and would have been sec >nd only to the burning of Moscow; but, just at this critical moment, before the ravages had extended, the wind turned! The winds of Heavens turned and stayed the spread of the devouring element. Ti e same wind that kind Heaven sent to keep off the fleet at Charleston till Sumter was reduced, came to the relief of Norfolk at the critical moment. Providence was sig nally on our side. They attempted to blow up the Dock, the most expensive one on the continent, but there was a break in the train they had laid, and it failed. 1 hey attempted to burn down the old Pennsyl vania, Germantown, and the Merrimac. They set the match, while they endeavor ed to get out of the way of their intended destruction; but the vessels sunk before the fuse caught—another remarkable in stance of the interposition of Providence on our behalf, and the strongest evidences of our rectitude. We were right at first— are right now, and shall keep ourselves right to the cud. What is to take place before the end, I know not. A threatening war is upon us, made by those who have no regard for rig-lit? We fight for our homes, onr fathers and mothers, our wives, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters, and neighbors! They fur money! The hirelings and mercena ries of the North are hand to hand against you. As I told you when I addressed you a few days ago, Lincoln may bring his sev enty-five thousand soldiers against us, hut seven times seventy-five thousand men can never conquer ns. We have now Ms ryland und Virginia, and all the herder States with ns, heart and hand, to defend us to the death. We can call out a million of people, it need be; and when they are all cut down, we can call out another, and still another, until the last man of the South finds a bloody grave, rather than submit to their foul dictation. But a tri umphant victory and independence, with ait unparalleled career of glory', prosperity and progress, awaits us in the future. God is on our side, aud who shall be against us? None but His Omnipotent hand can defeat us in this struggle. A general opinion prevails that Wash ington City is soon to be attacked. On this subject 1 cau only say, our object is peace. We wish no aggressions on any one’s rights, and will make none. But if Maryland secedes, the District of Colum bia will fall to her by reversionary right— the same as Sumter to South Catolina— Pnlaski to Georgia, and Pickens to Ala bama. When we have the right, we will demand the surrender of Washington, just as we did in the other cases, and will en force our demands at every hazard, and at whatever cost. And here let me say that our policy and couduct from the first has been right, and shall be to the last. 1 glo ry in this consciousness of our rectitude. It may be that “whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.” But tor Lincoln's wicked and foolish war procla mation, the border States—some of tLcm at least—would still have lingered in the hope that the administration aud its de signs were not so basely treacherous, as that document has shown them to be. Tennessee and other States would have lingered for some time. Now, all the slave States are casting in their lots with us, and linking their destinies with ours. We might affoid to thank Lincoln a little, for showing his hand. It tnay be that soon the Confederate flag with fifteen stars will be hoisted upou the dome of the an cient Capitol. If so, God’s will be done is my prayer. Let ns do nothing that is wrong. Let us commit our cause into His hand—perform our whole duty, aud trust iu Him tor the crowning results. I have many things I would like to say to yon, but my strength will not permit, even if it were necessary for your encour agement—hut it is not. I find that you are fully up to the music, that you tho roughly’ comprehend our condition, and are resolved to do your whole duty. I find our people every' where are alive to their interests and their duty in this cri sis.—Such a degree of popular enthusiasm was never before seen in this country. I find my fellow-citizens all along the Rail road line eager to bear the news and to speed our glorious cause with their servi ces. This is the fifth speech which 1 have made since I left home this evening at six o’clock. In my town j’esterday a meet ing was held, a company was organized, and their services tendered to our govern ment. A flag was made in tw r o hours by our patriotic ladies and presented to the company, and 82,200 was raised to equip the company and take care of the needy families of soldiers who may gooff to fight for our country. My friends! forget not the soldier! Send him contributions to make him comforta ble w hile he is in the service. Take care of his family while he is absent Employ your hands and your substance in doing works of charity in this day of yonr coun try’s trial. If any should fall in the bat tle, remember the orphan and the widow, and take care of them. God will bless you in such noble performances of a pat riotic duty. My fellow'-citizens, I must close these remarks. I am gratified to meet you to night. I am gratified that Georgia, and all the South is a unit. I rejoice to be able to tell you the welcome news that Virginia is a unit. Nearly’ every single member of her Convention will sign her Ordinance of Secession. And now with my best wishes, I bid you good night. His speech was rapturously applauded throughout; and as he retired, three cheers W’ere given with a will. In a few moments, in response to urgent solicitations, he again came on the plat form and said: The news from Washington is very in teresting. It has been stated in the news papers—first, that the Virginia troops had occupied Arlington Heights, just across the Potomac from the President’s House; and again, that Lincoln’s troops had occu pied that point. .My information is, that both these statements are incorrect Lin coln, h'-wever, has occupied Georgetown Heights! He has from fifteen to twenty.’ thousand soldiers stationed in and about Washington. Troops are quartered in the Capitol, who are defacing its walls and or- nanieuts with grease and filth, like a set of vandal hordes. The new Senate Cham ber has been converted into a kitchen and quarters-—cooking and sleeping apparatus having actually been erected and placed in that elegant apartment. The Patent Office is converted into soldiers’ barracks and is ruined with their filth. The Post- oflice Department is made a storehouse for flour and bacon. All the departments are appropriated to base uses, and despoiled of their beauty by those treacherous destruc tive enemies of our country. Their filthy’ spoliations of the public buildings and woiks of art at the Capitol, and their pre parations to destroy them, are strong evi dence to my tnind that they do not iuteifd to hold or defend the place; but to aban don it after having despoiled and laid it in ruins. Let them destroy it—savage like—if they will. We will rebuild it. VV e will make the structures more glorious. Phtenix like, new and more substantial structures will rise from its ashes. Plant ed anew, under the auspices of onr supe rior institutions, it will live and flourish throughout all ages.
