PHILADELPHIA, Nov. I.—A meetinf -wader the auspices of the Youag Men'ft Congress of Philadelphia Was held at

Am Academy of Music last night, at *•, which strong resolutions vers adopted «rging upon Spain to give Cuba the t': light to govern herself. The loeolutions follow: "Whereas, the people «f the United

States are deeply interested ia the irrepsessible conflict going on in the island of Cuba, our nearest neighbor between the foreigners who rale that land and tho native population who should own and control it, and "Whereas, it is cowardly, selfish, inhuman for us as a people, while in the full enjoyment of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, te stand silently |jy while another nation so directly under our eye is struggling in want, in

Sain

and in blood for the blessings of a berty which should be the common "heritage of mankind, therefore "Resolved, first that we still hope that the great nation of Spain will be awakened by the waste of her revenues and -the increase of the death roll amonff her soldiers in Cuba to desist from sucn an extravagant outlay of life and treasure to retain an island which is so unprofitable to her, and that she will give to the Cubans a free release that they may govern themselves as an independent state. "Second, tliat this great assembly of the citizens of Philadelphia, representing, as we fully believe, the feelings of the entiie city, urge upon our government at Washington that it use every honorable means to express to the government of Spain our utter disapproval of the war for he tsubjection of Cuba, and our open sympathy with the native Cubans in their heroic attempts to secure their freedom. "Third, that while we love peace and deprecate any rash attempts to rescind our treaties with Spain as a friendly nation, and especially discountenance any ill considered action which would involve the United States in a war with Spain yet we feel that there are some things worse than war and that when our efforts at a peaceful settlement of the question are exhausted, we, as a great liberty-loving people, will not shrink from the responsibility, if the spirit of the Monroe doctrine, protecting the people of this continent from the oppression of foreign invaders, be supported at any expense by our army and navy. "Fourth, that these resolutions be forwarded to the president-of the United States."

General B. F. Fisher presided. The principal r-t \lyrs were the Rev. Russell H. Conweii uut Colonel A. K. McClure. The academy was filled from pit to dome with a most enthusiastic audience. During his remarks Mr. Conweil said: "It is our duty to give Cubans the liberty we enjoy, and it is our place as a nation to saggest that she be permitted to take care of herself.''

Colonel McClure dwelt upon the fact that Spain at the beginning of the civil war granted belligerents rights to the Confederacy. He expressed the belief that viheii congress met next month these rights would be given to Cuba. General Fisher then asked the audience to express itself in such a manner that "it would reverberate throughout the land and call forth similar expressions of sympathy." The audience expressed itself accordingly. A collection for the care of sick and wounded Cuban soldiers was then taken up.

DISPATCHES FROM HAVANA.

Details of the Rrccnt Events According to Censorship News.

HAVANA, NOV. a.—Details have been received here from Cienfuegos regarding the release of the 16 Spanish soldiers who were captured by the insurgents in the engagement fought at Tardio Ojo de Auga. In that encounter, 64 Spanish soldiers had made a gallant stand against 1,200 insurgents. The soldiers were commanded by Colonel Yalle, Major Sanchez and Captains Navarro and Rio, who were among those captured and released by Rego, the insurgent leader. The latter was the first to greet the Spanish officers and, embracing Colonel Valle, he said: "Return to your comrades, heroes. You are an honor to the Spanish nation and I am proud to be able to boast of decending from such people."

Then followed a touching moment, during which the Spaniards and the 1 Cubans embraced each other and bid each other farewell, the Cubans shouting, as the Spaniards went away: "Adios, YaHentes Espanoles."

The Spanish soldiers, nearly all of whom were wounded, wore well cared for while in the hands of the insurgents and eat at the same table as Rego.

The action of the Cubans has caused no little good feeling towards them. At' Tornto Burro, near Caibarien, province of Santa Clara, the pilot boat, Mercidita, which was loaded witli groceries, has been captured by the insurgents. The crew was released.

The inhabitants of the province of Matanzas have raised bands of from 100 to 400 volunteers and detachment of 100 colored firemen have left for Santa Clara.

A body of 1,000 volunteers will be mobilized in this vicinity and sent to Matanzas.

The forces of the Borbon regiment have left Caibarien for the relief of Fort ^Dolores, which has been besieged by the |insurgents for two days.

Insurgent bands led by Calderon and iBacallao, to the number of 400, attacked fort at Sitio Grande, district of i, but were repulsed. ie insurgents laid an ambush at j, in the province of Puerto Prinipe, and fired upon the vanguard of lOeneral Altamora, wounding one lieuit and three soldiers.

XVL

While a member of congress and otherwise immersed in politics, Lincoln eaenied to lo*e all interest in the law. Of coarse what practice h« himself controlled passed into other hands. I retained all tbe business I oould and worked steadily on until, when he returned, our practice was as extensive as that of any otber firm at the bar. Lincoln realized that much of this was do* to my efforts, and on his return he therefore suggested that he had DO right to share in tbe business and profits whioh I had made. I responded that, as he bad aided me and given me prominence when 1 was young and ueeded it, I pould afford now to be grateful if not generous. I therefore recommended a continuation of the partnership, and we went on as befora I oould notice a difference in Lincoln's movement as a lawyer from this time forward. Be had begun to realize a certain lack of disoipline—a want of mental training and method. Ten years had wrought some change in the law and more in the lawyers of Illinois. The conviction had settled in the minds of the people that the pyrotechnics of courtroom and stump oratory did not necessarily imply extensive or profound ability in the lawyers who resorted to them. The courts were becoming graver and more learned, and the lawyer was learning as a preliminary and indispensable condition to success that he must be a close reasoner, besides having at command a broad knowledge of the principles on which the statutory law is constructed. There was, of course, the same riding on circuit as before, but the courts had improved in tone and morals, and there was less laxity—at least it appeared so to Lincoln.

Political defeat had wrought a marked effect on him. It went below the skin and made a changed man of him. He was not soured at bis seeming political decline, but still he determined toeschew politics from that time forward and devote himself entirely to the law. And now he began to make up for time lost in politics by studying tho law in earnest. No man had greater power of application than ha Once fixing his mind on any subject, nothing could interfere with or disturb him. Frequently I would go out on the circuit with him. We usually at the little country inns occupied the satne bed. In most cases the beds were too short for him, and his feet would hang over the footboard, thus exposing a limited expanse of shin bone. Placing a candle on a chair at the head of the bed, he would read and study i'or hours. I have known him to study in this position till 2 o'clock in the morning. Meanwhile I and others who chanced to occupy tbe same room would be safely and soundly asleep.

On the Circuit.

On the circuit in this way he studied Euclid until he could with ease demonstrate all the propositions in the six books. How he could maintain his mental equilibrium or concentrate his thoughts on an abstract mathematical proportion while Davis, Logan, Swett, Edwards and I so industriously and volubly filled the air with our interminable snoring was a problem none of us could ever solve. I was on tho circuit with Lincoln probably one-fourth of the time. The remainder of my time was spent in Springfield looking after tbe business there, but I know that life on the circuit was a gay one. It was rich with incidents and afforded the nomadic lawyers ample relaxation from all the irksome toil that fell to their lot. Lincoln loved it. I suppose it would be a' fair estimato to state that he spent over half the year following Judges Treat and Davis around on the circuit. On Saturdays the court and attorneys, if within a reasonable distance, would usually start for their homos. Some went for a fresh supply of clothing, but the greater number went simply to spend a day of rest with their families. The only exception was Lincoln, who usually spent his Sundays with the loungers at I the country tavern and only went homo at tho end of the circuit or term of court. "At first," rolates one of his colleagues on tho circuit, "we wondered at it, but soon learned to account for his I strange disinclination to go home. Lin- I coin himself never had much to say about home, and we never felt free to comment on it. Most of us had pleasant, inviting homos, and as wo struck out for them I'm sure each on© of us down in our hearts had a mingled feeling of pity and sympathy for him." If the day was long and he was oppressed, the feeling was soun relieved by the narration of a story. The tavern loungers enjoyed it, and his melancholy, taking to itself wings, seemed to fly away.

As a Story Teller.

In the role of a story teller I am prone to rogard Mr. Lincoln as without an equal. I have soon him surrounded by a crowd numbering as many as 200 and in some cases 300 persons, all deeply interested in the outcome of a story which, when he had finished it, speedily found repetition in every grocery and lounging place within reach. His power of mimicry, as I have before noted, and his manner of reoital were in many respects unique if not remarkable. His countenance {Rid all his features seemed to take part in t'jp performance. As he neared the pith or point of the joke or story evejf vestige of seriousness disappeared from his face. His little gray eyes sparkled, a smile seemed to gather

tip, curtainlike, the corners of hla inouth, his frame quivered with suppressed excitement, and when tho point, or "nub," of tbe story, as be called it, '".we no one's lnt!-?h w:s bflrrtinr than \rfVrv.-'-•) r.ro OTJ* oi uai.w iiuw, auu A iy ambitious i.- wattiitoaK* 'V vaid iardly d&re

it gave him in some mysterious way a singularly firm hold on the people. How Lincoln appeared and acted in the law offico has been graphically and, I must confess, truthfully Ibid by a gentleman, now in New York, who was for several years a student in our office. I beg to quote a few lines from him: "My brother met Mr. Lincoln in Ottawa,Ills., one day and said to him, 'I have a brother whom I would very much like to have enter your office as a student.' 'All right!' was the reply. 'Send him down, and we will take a look at him.' I was then studying Ir-w sit Grand Rapids, Mich., and on hearing from my brother I immediately packed np and starter! for Springfield. I arrived there on Saturday night. On Sunday Mr. Linooln was pointed out to me. I well remember this first sight of htm. He wki striding along, holding little Tad, then about 6 years old, by the band, who could with tbe greatest difficulty keep up with his father. In the morning I applied at the office of Linooln & Herndon for admission as a student

A Modest Office.'-

"The office was on the second floor of a brick building on the public square, opposite the courthouse. You went up one flight of stairs and then passed along a hallway to the roar office, whioh was a medium sized room. There was one long table in the center of the room and a shorter one running in the opposite direction, forming a T, and both were coverd with green baize. There were two windows which looked into the back yard. In one corner was an old fashioned secretary with pigeonholes and a drawer, aud here Mr. Lincoln and his partner kept their law papers. There was also a bookcase containing about 200 volumes of law as well as miscellaneous books. "Tho morning I entered the office Mr. Lincoln and his partner, Mr. Herndon, were both present. Mr. Lincoln addressed his partner thus: 'Billy, this is the young man of whom I spoke to you. Whatever arrangement you make with him will be satisfactory to me.' Then, turning to me, he said: 'I hope you will not become so enthuisastic in your studies of Blackstone and Kent as did two young men whom we had here. Do you seo that spot over there?' pointing to a large ink stain on the wall. 'Well, one of these young men got so enthusiastic in his pursuit of legal lore that he fired an inkstand at the other one's head, and that is tho mark he made.' I immediately began to clean up about the office a littlo. Mr. Lincoln had beon in congress and had the usual amount of seeds to distribute to the farmers. These were sent out with Free Soil and Republican documents. In my efforts to clean up I found that some of the seeds had sprouted in the dirt that had collected in the office. Judge Logan and Milton Hay occupied the front offices of the same floor with Lincoln aud Herndon, and one day Mr. Hay came in and said, with apparent astonishment, 'What's happened here?' 'Oh, nothing,' roplied Lincoln, pointing to me, 'only this young man has been cleaning up a little.' "Lincoln's favorite position when unraveling some knotty law jioint was to stretch both of his legs at full length upon a chair in front of him. In this position, with books on the table near by and in his lap, he worked up his case. No matter how deeply interested in his work, if any one came in he had something humorous and pleasant to say, and usually wound up by telling a joke or an anecdote. I have heard him relato tbe same story three times within as many hours to persons who came in at different periods, and every time he laughed as heartily and enjoyed it as if it were a new story. His humor was infectious. I had to laugh because I thought it funny that Mr. Lincoln enjoyed a story so repeatedly told.

Dividing the Fees.

"There was no order in the office at all. The firm of Lincoln & Herndon kept no books. They divided fees without taking any receipts or making any entries on books. One day Mr. Lincoln received $5,000 as a fee in a railroad case. He came in and said, 'Well, Billy,' addressing his partner, Mr. Herndon, Micro is our fee. Sit down and let me divide.' Ho counted out $2,500 to his partner and gave it to him with as much nonchalance as he would have given a few cents for a paper. Cupidity had no abid ing place in his nature. "I took a good deal of pains in getting up a speech which I wanted to doliver during a political campaign. I told Mr. Lincoln that I would like to read it to him. Ha sat down in one chair, put his feet into another ono and said: 'John, you can firo away with that speech. I guess I can stand it.' I unrolled the manuscript aud proceeded with some tiepidation. 'That's a.good point, John,' he would say at certain places, and at others, 'That's good—very good indeed,' until I felt very much elated ovor my effort. I delivered the speech ovor 50 times during tho campaign. Elmer E. Ellsworth, after colonel of the famous zouaves, who was killed in Alexandria early in the war, was nominally a student in Lincoln's office. His head was so full of military matters, however, that he thought littlo of law. Of Ellsworth, Lincoln said, 'That young man has a real genins for war!'"

Lincoln's Hatred of Oppression.

To Newton Bateman, October, 1860: "I know thcro is a God, yid that ho hates injustice and slavery. I see the storm coming, and I know that his hand is in it. If he has a place and work for me, and I think he has, I believe I am ready. I am nothing, 4$pt truth is everything. I know I am right because I know that liberty is right, for Christ teaches it, and Christ is God."

XX.—FROM DRESDEN TO ELBA VIA Moscow. In the early spring of 1819 Napoleon had bis court in Dresden. Pageantry oould go no further than was witnessed there. He was surrounded with a retinue of veritable kings and princes. The princesses were there also, headed by the mother of tbe King of Rome.

On the 29th of May, the march to tbe began. More than half a million of men, gathered from nearly a score of nations, moved forward. The cynioal Bourrienne sayB that sixteen raoes, like so many chained dogs, advanced on Russia. Tbe military genius of all Central and Western Europe was in tbe train. Napoleon was backed by all

the resources of European civilization. He had his veterans and his marshals. He had his underkings. He had his genius, and tho experience of more than fifteen years of warfare.

As for Russia, sho had savage forces, vast domains, an assemblage of barbarous peoples, inacessible cities, impassable rivers and illimitable steppes. She had also patriotism and physical hardihood. She had the Cossacks. She knew herself aud her enemy knew her not. She had winter—sublime, yellow-black winter, blown out of the hyperborean caverns, uufelt by the men of Western Europe.

On the 24th of June, the Grand Army, crossing the Niemen, headed towards Moscow. The advance was but littlo impeded. The Russians fell back before the resistless invaders.

The Russians under Kutusoff receded during July and the first half of August. On the 16th of that month the first battle was fought at Smolensko. This place the French pounded into ruins and captured with a loss to themselves of nearly 12,00® men. Dorogobourg, Viazma, and (ijatsk foil before the invaders. Tho Russians durst not stand in the open field. Not until the 7th of September did Kutusoff plant himself on the Moskwa and offer battle to his antagonist. There, at the village of Borodino, was fought out the greatest murder of modern times. A thousand cannon vomited death all day. Under the smoke a quarter of a million of men struggled like tigers. At nightfall the French had the field. But the defeated Russians bung sullenly to the skirts of the bloody arena, where they had left more than 40,000 of their dead and wounded. The French losses were almost equally appalliug. "Sire," said Marshal Ney, "we would better withdraw, and reform." ''Thou advise a retreat, Michel?" said the marble head, as it turned to the Bulldog of Battles.

Kutusoff abandoned Moscow. Most of the inhabitants receded with him from the city to the great plains eastward. On the 15th of September, Napoleon enterod the ancient capital. The streets were as a necropolis. All was silence. The conqueror took up his residence in the old palace of the Czars. He had now performed this act in nearly all the royal places of Europe. He had walked unbidden into Schonhrunn. In the vault at Potsdam he had puc bis hand on the catafalque of Frederick the Great. Ho had trod the unwolooming slabs of the Escurial. He had wintered in Warsaw. Nov.- ho slept in the Kremlin.

Mc -'.:ow promised rest after hardship. Hero we will spend the winter in the luxuriov quarters of the Muscovite grandees and metropolitans. Lo, out of the Bazaar, near tho Kremlin, bursts a volume of ii.:nio! Tho surrounding region is lighted with tho glare. Tho equinoctial gar.* springs up. The city is on fire in a thousand places. Skulkers have remained behind and given us to the flames. The French army tries in vain to quench tho conflagration. For five days there is tho roar of universal combustion. Then it subsides but Moscow is in ruins. Napoleon returns to the Kremlin and opens vain negotiations with the Czar. Alexander and Kutusoff will not hoar. The French are in the ashes of a burnt-up Russian city.

Alroady winter was at hand. Snow was falling. The Soldier of Fortune has at last tound his destiny. On the 19th of October, he leaves Moscow, and the retreat begins to the Niemen. On every side the Cossacks arise and assail the fugitives. A hundred and twenty thousand men roll away across the hostile world. At the Beresina the bridges are broken down under the retreating army. In tho following spring, when the ice-gorges go down the river, 12,000 dead Frenchmen shall be washed up from the floods!

There is constant battle on flank and 'ear. All stragglers perish. The army

dwindles. Key brings np Mw rear-gnard wasted to handfnl. At tbs passage the Niemen, soiled with dirt, blackened with smoke, withovt insignia, with only drawn sword and faring backward* towalds tbe hated region, ute "Bravest of MM Brave" OTMBM the bridge. Ho is the laat man to save himself from tho horrors of the Campaign of Baasi*.

Th« remnants of the. Grand 4riny find refnge in Konigsberg. Napoleon, aftee Moaoow, had taken to a sledge, ftnd had aped across tho snow covered wastea of Poland on his way to Paris. Ho came there unannounced. At fonr o'clook on the following morning, some one fonnd him in his office at tho Tuileries with his war-map of Europe spread before him on the floor!

As soon as It was known thai tho Orand Army was under tho snows of Russia, there were signs of upheaval though all tho borders of the West. Tho Germanic States were first to profit by the disasters of tbe French. Fredertok William gave bis band to the Csar. There was a revolt in Hamburg. The Confederation of 1he Rhine began to fall to pieces. Alexander eent an army to Berlin Napoleon muet gnard his eastern frontier or perish.

The turmoil of 181S began on the 9nd of May with the battle of Lntsen. Within credible speed Napoleon had planted his new armies on a line extending from Lubeo to Venice. At Lutzen the French were victorious. Frederick William, Alexander, and Napoleon were onoe more on the same field I On the 81st of May, tbe Emperor hurled 125,000 men on tbe alliee at Bautzen, and won another victory. Davout retook Hamburg, and terribly punished that place for its defection. Napoleon held Dresden in (me hand and routed the allies with the other until all his antagonists were glad to accept an armistice. They agreed to oonvene at Prague for making a treaty of peaoe.

But secretly, in tbe interim, the Czar and Frederick William, aided by England, constructed the Fifth Coalition. Austria and Saxony were won over to the league. The father of Maria Louisa perfidiously entered the lists against her husband. On the 26th of August, after the truce had expired, the Emperor met the Prussians and Russians at Dresden, and gained another victory. But his enemies were only^)e^ben—not. overwhelmed.

The

war

in other parts of the field

bore hardly on the French. At Grossbeeren the allies defeated Oudinot, and on the 26th of August, the battle of Katsbacli was won by Blucherover Macdonald, who suffered heavy losses in men and guns. Bernadotte, who had renounced the Emperor, came down against Ney at Dennewitz, and there, on the 6th of September, disastrously defeated him. The allies concentrated in great force on Leipsic, and on the 16th of October were beaten there by Bonaparte. Vainly he sought to open negotiations. The second battle of Leipsic was fought on the 18th of the month— a terrible conflict in which Napoleon was forced from the field. The city was taken the bridges blown up andPoniatowsky drowned in the Eister.

The French, hard-pressed, were obliged to fall back from the frontier of Germany. In November, Napoleon reached Paris. He sought in all possible ways to conclude a peace, but also exerted himself during the winter to prepare for the coming avalanche. Beyond the Rhine the French power was broken up. Hanover was recovered by tho allies. Holland proclaimed William I. of Orange. Jerome had to abdicate the throne of Westphalia. The small princes of Germany took back their ancient estates. Norway went to Sweden. Denmark leagued with Great Britain. The Austrians over ran the Illyrian provinces. Murat, king of Naples, made a treaty with Austria. Only Eugene, viceroy of Italy, remained loyal in support of the emperor.

In the beginning of 1814 was begun the so-called Campaign of France. Napoleon everywhere confronted his enemies. All the eastern borders were darkened with the oncoming armies of the Coalition. Wellington, who in the preceding summer had won the great battle of Vittoria, was now in command of the allies on the side of Flanders. Napoleon gave the Pope his liberty, and restored him to his States. All the whales and monsters of tho Middle Ages came up from the sea ho threw to this ono a bait and to that ono a tub. The Austrians under Scbwartzenburg crossed the Rhino. Blucher also crossed, at Coblontz. The Russians came by way of Holland. Beruadotto pressed southward with 100,000 men.

The struggle that ensued was without a parallel in history. Napoleon, like King John at Poitiers, warded right and warded left. Ho fought one battlo after another, until both Blucher and Schwartzenburg were crushod, aud Austria sued lor peace, liut the Germanic powers returned to the battlo with the poAverful support of Russia and Sweden and England and tho French began to recede. It was now seen that tho allied generals had learned from the lion many of his own arts of war.

Napoleon, with his usual audacity, plunged into Germany the allies, instead of following him, pressed on towards Paris, and the Emperor was obliged to return. Arriving at Fontainebleau, he found that Alexander aud Frederick William were already in his capital. Europe was in an uproar. Tho Fronch'Empire was sinking to its knpes. Such legislative authority as existed in Paris was asserting itself for peace and abdication. On tbe 11th of April, tbe Emperor agree! to withdraw in favor of his son but the triumphant allies would have nothing less than the absolute. The absolute was accepted by the Man of Destiny. To him was given, instead of the Empire of Europe, the island of Elba, with its ninety square miles of petty mountains, its sardines, its crabapples, and its small wine! Besides this, in compensation for the srowns of Cnosar and Charlemagne, we will give leral Bonaparte a pension *t 3,000,000 franos!
