THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, ‘DECEMBER 5, 1880—EIGHTEEN PAGES. 18 — @ collation and happy reunion at noon, ad- dresses fullowed from the pastor of a group - of over a dozen churches who claim more or Jess relationship, the old church at Strat- ford coming first in order, these churches be- ing situated in Stratford, Bridgeport, Hunt- ington, Monroe, Woodbury, aud elsewhere. Someof the English Ritualists are becom- ing violent. The Rev. H. Marriott, speaking at an indignation meeting at West Brom- wich, after condemning the decision in Mr. Pelham Dale’s case as ‘idiotic, lunatical, and foolish,” and the lawyers and Judges as “a regular set of fools,” said that the abom- inable Public-\VWorship Regulation bill had come out of Hell, and he could prove it. “Those Low-Church People wanted to teach the public that they (the clergy) were not riests: that they had no power to give abso- lution after confession of sins; and that the real presence was not in the sacrament, and this teaching that bill was intended to sup- rt. It was therefore plain that it was the vil’s work to destroy the Prayer-Book.” A Baptist minister in Versailles, Ky., has succeeded in locating hell approximat In the course of a recent sermon, reported in the Louisville Courier-Journal. the Rev. Dr. Woolfolk remarked: Every star isa burn- ing world. Qur sun is one of the smaller of these stars, being only a million miles in diameter, and science in its recent advances has made known to us much repecting its constitution. Itis one of the yellow stars. It iy far advanced in the process of consoli- dation, and jts light and heat are much less intense than formerly, its rays, perhaps, being absorbed and rendered yellow by the imperfect combustion of its gases. The white stars have much more intense combustion— their furions heat consummng all gases, and emitting a bright, vivid light. But even with a less intense combustion of our sun, there are jets of flame which gush up from. its centre to a height of 70,000 miles in half an hour, and terrific storms of flame which sweep across the surface at the rate of 100,000 miles an hour.” Some such world as this, the preacher believed, would be the future abode of the lost—a fiery reaim of outer darkness. THE POPE AND THE IRISH QUESTION. Rome, Nov. 11.—The Pope, in receiving the Irish Bishops yesterday, spoke in warm terms of the love he felt for their country and of his admiration of lreland’s unshaken perse- verance in the faith. He manifested great sympathy for the sufferings of the Irish peo- ple, and dweit emphaticall: yon his desire that the. priests and the people should remain poled aa aes and (fovecially in avon: eve! approaching to revolutionary eres. The “Archbishop, Croke, of Castel, assured his Holiness the present agitation in Ireland, so far from being revo- lutionary, was strictly constitutional. The people, he said, had never at any time been more regular In the observance of t ligious duties or more loyal to the civi ernment, but they were lawfully fighting out reat social question. tis well known in diplomatic circles ac- credited to the Holy See that the Pope is much embarrassed to know how to deal with the Irish difficulty. He fully understands that itis not a question between Catholics and Protestants, but between the friends of order and anarchists. He openly disapproves the agrarian movement, and entertains a sin- cere desire to assist the English Government, were it possible. The great difficulty is that were he to speak it might be looked upon as a an improper interference. Moreover, he is ‘well aware that he is only hearing one side ‘of the case. What are the merits of the other or the exact facts he has no means of learn- ing, and he feels that were he to break si- Jence he silent in serine to do good, pro- duce, through imperfect knowledge, a con- trary result, The Irish Bishops have, in social conversation in Rome, not been reti- cent in Severibing: Mr. Parnell as a great ben- efactor to Irelan The total of the sums presented to the Pope by the Irish Bishops amounted to £3,656 sterling. That portion offered by the Arch- bishop of Cashel was inclosed in a beauti- fully-embroidered purse, The Bishop of Limerick also presented a quantity of rich Limerick lace; and the Bishop of Kerry a eopy of his Commentaries on the Gospels. _ PERSONALS.

A Description of One Held by Qucen Victoria, New York Home Journat. Her Majesty generally holds four drawine- rooms in the course of the year; two before Easter, two after, and seldom Jater than the month of May. Asarule, young ladies ate presented by their mothers. Even it they are presented themselves for the first time the same day as their daughters, it is still en régle that they should make the presenta- tion. Butit is necessary—absolutely neces- sary—that tne lady who undertakes the duty shall be present at the same drawing-room, though slie may not even see the young girl, and, except in the case of relatives, they rarely go together, and do not for a moment think of passing the Royal presence together. ing any lady to make a presentation sty it must be recognized as a great kindness and favor, for she is person- ally responsible. Unmarried ladies. do not exercise the privilege of making presenta- tions. «As svon as it is determined at which drawing-room the young lady is to make her début, the mode of proceeding is as follows: Acard is sent in to the Chamberlain’s office Stable-Yard St. James’, on which is written the name of the person to be presented, and the person presenting, thus: ‘ Miss Smith, by her mother, Mrs. ‘Smith,”? accom- ied by a letter from Mrs. Smith, giving y partion as to address, ete. and aying that it is her intention to be present at nd. sa the drawing-room ot the date tix This must be done two clear d before the drawing-room ing been submitted for her 3 1, on application at the samv- office two pink presentation cards will be. given, on wh be legibly written, as before, “Mi: h, by her mother, Mrs. Smith,” and these ‘a ys atleast The names hay- Ssty7’s AppProv- must be taken to the ice. One wil given to the page-i iting on first arriving at the top of the sta nd tke other handed to the Lord Chamberlain, who stands besi de her Majesty, when the R presenee is reached 7 read ina loud, clear voice the names to the Queen. The proper Court dress is the next impor- tant consideration. A young girl, on her presentation, wears white, and every hdy at- tending the Court must have a trait court plumes, and 2 really low d So Strict are the laws with regard to this that people are appointed to prevent ladies pass- ing who fallshortin any of these require- nents. I was myself ‘accompanied to 2 drawing-room two or three years ‘ago by a friend who had her dress trom Paris. It proved too hizh on the shoulders for rezula- tion; moreover she had only one small piece of tulle in lieu of lappets, and before en- tering the presence of her Majesty she Was compelled to tear some tulle triminings from her dress and pin this on as another lap- bet, and to have the bodice cut down on the shoulders and turned in. ‘These Inppets may be either really lace or blonde, wit the ends hanging at the back, or two pieces of tulle, Which young ladies find more becoming. The width is mostly split in half, one end Reuieted on a thread, and so pinned on. White plumes are essential—three for mar- ried, two tor unmarried women,—placed in such a manner that they can be distinctly seen in front. ‘Lhe train must be_at least three yards Jong, and is generally four. It is sometimes cut in one with the bodice, sometimes attached by braces to the shoul- ders, sometimes plaited on theshoulders, but young ladies generally have It sewn onat the waist. Just now, white satin and brocade is inost used, with tulle skirts and a_profusion of white flowers. Pearls are considered the Most appropriate ornaments for a débutante. The dress urust be well made and all the de- tails wellcarried out. Many-buttoned gloves are worn, but when presented, before ap- pearing in the Queen’s presence, the right hand one must be removed, and this is gener- ally simplified by not being putonatall. Hay- ing a handkerchief, a fan, the one glove, and the card to hold, it is far better not to carry @ bonguet, especially as the end of the train, neatly folded, has to be borne on the left arm. ‘The mode of proceeding at a drawing-room isas follows: The palace doors generally open at 2, the Queen entering the throne- room at 3. Of late years her Majesty’s health has not permitted her to remain through all the receptuon, ‘Nherefore, in order to pass before her, itis well to go early, especially when presented, as it is only na case of presentation that the Queen’s hand is kissed, and this ceremony is not gone through if the Princess of Wales or any of the Royal Prin- cesses have inken her place. ‘Then you merely pass courtseying low, as you would if you were only attending a drawing-room, though the presentation ‘thus made is in every respect equivalent to actual presenta- lions to-the sovereign, But being an event that will hardly hap- pen more than twice in a woman’s life, it is advisable to do it thoroughly. Once present- ed, you can annually attend one drawing- room for the future, and will only require to be represented when you marry or you at- tain some title. People anxious to arrive early leaye home mostly at halt-past 12 to 1, being content to wait tiently in the Mall or Buckingham Val- ace road, and endure the eager inspection of a. dense crowd, who, wet or fine, line the roadway, peer into the carriages, and often laugh and make audible remarks about the inm&tes. ‘There is, however, no lack of amusement. ‘The beef-eaters, in their quaint scarlet ‘udor dresses, bedizened with gold, pa- their ruifs, and low-crowned hats, encircled with red, white, and blue ribbon, march, halberds'in hand, to Buckingham Palace to take up their stations along the corridors and staircases. ‘The gentlemen-at-arms troop in by twos and twos, In scarlet uniform, gold helmets, and white, waving plumes. They are also on duty within the palace. You see them in each room guarding the barriers, and preventing,the entrance of more people than will comfortably fill them, In the room adjoining the throne-room they stand in a fine, ready to act asa veritable body-guard to the Royal family if required, and another line divides off the lower end of the picture gallery, forming a sort of corridor to the throne-room. There is no better place for seeing the dresses. Lalways make a rule of getting close behind these gentlemen-at-arms as soon as I have passed the Royal presence, and so,peering be- tween their shoulders, see the rest ot the company passin single file, their trains flow- ing behind them. One or more of the house- hold troops areon duty in the court-yard, and act as escort to the Royal personages who attend the drawing-room, andit is a very pretty sight to see the bundmen in the guld coats march through St, James’ Park, to take up their position and play throughout the re- ception. [have never myself heard them in the palace, but in some of the rooms you ean, and when “God Save the Queen” is played you know that her Majesty has entered the Presence Chamber. ‘The equipages of Am- bassadors, Ministers, and other distingui cl people also tlit to and tro, butthey do not fall into the line, having the privilege of the en- trée which entitles them to enter the palace by a special entrance, to occupy the first drawing-room, next to the throne-room, and to pass before the Gueca first. At last, after « long waiting, the line of carriages begins to move slowly, and in time you pass through the fine gateway into the inner quadrangle, and alight at the steps of the grand entrance. Here you will see some few scar let-coated servants and officials and much crimson carpeting. You cross the really magnificent hall, paved with variegat- ed marble, the ceiling supported by white marble columns, with Corinthian capitals of mosaic and gold, and up 2 few steps reach a dining-room, where cloaks and wraps are left.. Leaving this, you ascend the staircase, enter the picture-gallery, leave one of the two cards with which you are provided with the page-in-waiting, who stands bya raised crimson-eovered desk, and then” hurry on through the concert-room into the furthest of the suite of drawing-rooms not yet filled. ‘There is the blue drawing-room, hung with blue silk paneled in gold, with Winterhalter’s portraits of the Queen and the Prince Con- sort; the dark-blne drawing-room and the red aud yellow drawing-rooms; they all command a view of the beauti- ful gardens of Buckmgham Palace, where the fountains are generally set play ing. They are filled with rows of chairs, and as soon as they are occupied the gentiemen- arms cross their halberds, and no more are adimitted, and soon until all the rooms are filled, People sit. clintting to their fliends, and thus while the time away. ‘There are only a few gentlemen present, and they must be in attendance on ladies, and do not renerally pass the Royal presence, but are nevertheless occasionally presented with their wives. ‘ After atime there isa rustle and arush.

Interesting Sayings and Doings of a Very Remarkable Personage. A Centenarian Who Mas Played a Stirring Part in the Country's Hlstory. Special Correspondence of The Chicago Tribune. BATTLE Creek, Mich., Dec. 2.—In resum- ing the narrative of the life and adventures of that unpretending yet meritorious colored woman, Sojourner Truth, it is but just to say that the notoriety and fame which she has obtained have not been of her own seek- ing. She has ever sought to work consvien- tiously and do her duty, and not to seek the applause of her fellow-beings. This traitin her character is well exemplified by an inci- dent, of which I was an eye-witness, which occurred in 1876, when the citizens of this city celebrated the Centennial of Freedom. It was generally desired by all that Sojourner should occupy a prominent place at an exhi- bitionto be given in the city. She was to represent the “Freedman”? coming out from the shackles of Slavery into Freedom. It was with much labor that she could be in- aluced to go before the people. As she ex- plained, ‘Vs not warthy to sit up yar: but, if Lean do any work or say anythin’ for the people, 1’1l do dat.” It hardly seems possible that a person who has been on a leyel with the cattleand swine, and forso many years subjected to such de- moralizing influences, should have LETAINED HER MORAL INTEGRITY to such an extent, and cherished so success- fully the religious sentimentin her soul, It certainly shows a mind of no common order; while it hightens the detestation, that is felt in every right-thinking bosom, of that system of oppression which seeks to cripple the in- tellect, impair the understanding, and de- prave the hearts of its victims. That one so oppressed should rise to the prominent posi- tion which she occupies, is, l say, almost niraculous, Sojourner, as stated in my previous letter, has no education,—cannot read or write. The only data of her early life, therefore, are derived from her own remembrance; and her memory is wonderful for so old a person. About one of the first things which she re- inembers, prominently connected with her early life, was the time when she was 9 years old, and was sold on a block at auction, to- gether with a flock of sheep. She and the sheep together brought the sum of $104, which, she remembers, was a good price. All her hardships, she says, date from thedayof this sale. She was compzlicd to labor hard in the fields all day, and, upon re- turning to the house at night, had to work the greater part of the night, doing washing and ironing for the master’s house. Noth- ing but the most toilsome of manual work, WITIE FREQUENT INIUMAN BEATINGS, was her lot from this time to the day of her liberation. There are some hard things that erossed Sojourner’s life while in Slavery, that she does not desire published for various reasons: First, because the parties from whose hands she suffcred them have ren- dered up theiraccount to a Higher Tribunal, and their innocent friends alone are living. Secondly, because they are not all for the public ear, from their very nature. And third, but not least, because many of the stories would be so unnatural that people would believe them untrue, which would in- jure,her naine of “Sojourner Truth.” “And, honey,” said she in her quaint way,‘ I wouldn’t have people think I’d tell a lie for all the world.” Oncor two of the things which she desired omitted nay, however, be men- tioned here briefly. They relate to the in- humanity of her master, who was so brutal thatat one time he whipped a mother who was nursing her little bube of 2 few s, because she did not do enough work whipped her so hard that mingled milk and btood ran streaming down from her lacerated breasts. At another time, a little slave-child soannoyed its master by ying that the brute scized the child by feet and DASHED OUT ITS BRAINS AGAINST THE WALL. Another taster crushed in the skull of one of his slaves with a sled-stick, because of an expression of disinelination to do an extra amount of labor, ‘These are horrors of a by- gone time, which do not need reviving now that Slavery has been abolished; and we will kindly draw the curtain of charity over them. Atan early age Sojourner experienced re- ligion, and, as_xti colored people do, became very enthu: ic over it. She never missed an opportunity to attend a camp-meeting or arevival. At one time, when she had been at Northampton lecturing for some tine, she found out that a camp-inevting was in prog- Tess near by, and she could not stay away from it. Althongh it was a “white peo- ple’s” camp-neeting, Sujourner reasoned that their Lord was her Lord; and she went, The hanced to be also mn. aitendanee a ghs,who had come there for the express purpose of haying a froli ing up the inceting. When Sojen of them, she became very much frichtened, and hid herself behind a trunk, fearing they would wreak their mischief upon her, she being the only colored person “Den,” said she, “I be; to An’ h L be, a servant of _ the «li God, a-flyin’ from de Debil. Don’t de Bible say, ‘One shall chase a thousand, an’ two. shafl put ten thousand to fight’? an’ dar ain’ta thousand here; CH not tly from, de Debil, but Pil go outa’ face his hosts, an’ GOD WILL PROTECT ME.” She then came out from her hiding-place, andinvited several to £0 with herand see what they could do to still the raging crowd of boys, who were running about screaming, shouting, firing pistols, and making thi oidurning the Lents. ‘They di vitation, and thought her suehathing. The noise aud coutasion we now terrific. Sojourner lett the tent, aud, going about thirty rods to arise of srouud, vegan to sing, in her most fervid manner, one of the eamp-neeting songs, beginning: It was carly !n the morning—it was early in the morning, Just at the break of day, When He rose—when He rose—when He rose, And went up to Heaven ina cload. AU who ever heard her sing will remember her peculiar tunes and style, which once heard ean hardly be furgottcn. As she com- mienced to sing with the utmost: strength of her powerful voice, the coughs made a rush for her, andshe was imined rrounded by a dense body of the riote: y of them armed with sticks or clubs.” Her singing still continued, and seemed to thrill the young men, as THEY QUIETED DOWN VERY MUCIE in their demonstrations. After a pause, she inquired, in her mildest tones, “ Why do you come about ine with clubs and sticks 2 Lam not doing harm to any one? “We ain't a goin’ to hurt you. old woman,” they cried simultaneously.‘ Keep on singing and talk- ing!” ‘Phe leaders of the crowd cried out for her to mount an old wagon near by and preach to them. She declined, fearing they would overthrow it. But they continued to clamor for her to do so, promising not to touch her; and at last she acceded to their request. They assisted her to mount the wagon, from which she spoke to them for an hour anda half. Of ail she said to,them on that occasion, she remembers only the fol- lowing: f Veil, chillen, darare two congregations on dis groun’. De Bible says dat dar shall bea separation of de sheep from de goats. De other preacher has got de sheep, an’ L have got de goats. I havea few sheep among my goats, but dey is very ragged.” When she becaine wearied.of talking, she began to think howshe could get them to disperse quietly. Whenever she paused they would loudly ery, “More?’? and “Sing tw us??? She motioned to them to keep quiet, and called out to thein, “Chillen (she always calls every otie child), Pve talked to you, and sung to you; now will you do one thing for me?” “Yes! yes!” re nded from every corner. ‘Well, itis thi I will sing to you once more, and then you must go ‘way aud Jeave the camp in peace for to-night.” A few answered, “We will.” “I repeat it,” she said, ‘and 1 want an answer from you all.’ “Yes! yes!” answered many more voices, present. think: ly Dis tent aiv’t uo protection. “Y REPEAT IT AGAIN,” sald Sojourner, “and I want an answer from every one. I will sing to you once more, and. you must fo away and leave us in peace this night.” ‘This time a long “Yes! yes yes!” came up from every mouth in the mnultitadigous mob. “Amen! itis sealed!” | replied Sdjourner, in the deepest and most solemn tone of her voice. Its effect ran through the multitude like an electric shock, and they all considered themselves bound by their promise, Some even began to leavi instantly; others said, * Are we not to have one more song?” “Yes,” she answered, and then she commenced to sing: Zz wets de Lord I's got my seal—to-day an’ to- To stay Golan ee Reid -to-08y- an to-day. De Md old way is a rightes Ys Ab't menn to take de Kingdom in de good old Before she had finished her singing they began quietly to disperse, and in the course of a few moments she was left alone. 4 Through all the scenes of her eventful life may be traced the energy of a naturally powerful mind; the fearlesness and child- like simplicity of one untrammeled by edu- eation or conventional customs; purity of character; an unflinching adherence to prin- ciple; ‘and a native enthusiasm, which, under different clreumstances, might easily have produced ANOTHER JOAN OF ARC. With all her enthusiasm, and fervor, and speculation, her religion is not tinctured in the least with gloom. No doubt, no hesita~ tion, no despondency, spreads a cloud over her soul; but all is bright, clear, positive, and at times ecstatic. She feels that perfect childlike trust that “casteth out fear.” Once, while she was at a religious meeting, where one of the speakers had alluded to the Government of the United States, and had uttered sentiments in favor of its Constitu- tion, Sojourner stood erect and tall, with her white turban on her head, and: in a low and subdued tone of voice, began by saying. “ Chillen, I talks to God, and God talks to me. I goes out and talks to Gud in de fields and de woods. [‘The weevil had destroyed thou- sands of acres of wheat inthe West that year.] Dis morning I was walking out, and I got over de fence. I saw de wheat _a-holding up its head, looking very big. I goes up and takes hold of it. You believe it, dere was no wheatdar? I says, ‘God [speaking the name ina veiee of reverence peculiar to herself}, what is de matter wid dis wheat 2? Su’ He says tu.me, ‘Sojourner, dere is a little weasel init?’ Now I hears talking about de Cunsti- tution and der .. L comes up and I takes hold of dis Constitution. It looks mighty big, and I feels for my rights; butdar ain't any dar. Den £ says, ‘God, what ails «is Constitution?’ And Sle says, ‘Sojourner, dere is a little weasel in!?” The ettect of this comparison on the multitude was irresistible. Sojourner is always FOND OF SINGING about her work; and the writer of this arti- ele can remember her, with her daughter and daughter’s husband (William Boyd), when they first came to Battle Creek being employed tudo the Work abuut the house. J was of ten- der years then, and delighted to have old “Aunty Sojourner,” as we always called her, sing to us by the firelight on a cold winter’s evening. In menory’s picture I can recall the gaunt, bony figure of. this strange wom- as she sang with all hersouland might, ina peculiar, cracked voice, and queer En- glish, a lyric commencing: “I'm on my way to Canada, ‘That cold but happy lind; The dire etfects of Slavery Lenn no longer stund. O, righteous Futher, ‘Do look down on me, And help me on to Canada, Where colored folks are free.” The songz ran on to state that, when the fugitive had crossed the Canaila line, ‘The Queen comes down unto the shore, With nrins extended wide, ‘To welcome the poor fugitive Sufe on to Freedom's side. In the statement thus set forth she seemed to have the most perfect, simple faith; and she would sit by the fire, rocking her body baekward and forward, nodding her head with great delight, as she hhummed this, and many other tunes, over and over again. F it is the theory of some writers that to the African is reserved, in the later and palmier days of the earth, the fall and harmonious development of the religious elementin man. The African seems to st on the tropical fervor and luxuriance of Scripture imagery as himself as of the same blood with those old burning, simple souls, THE PATRIARCHS, PROPHETS, AND SEERS, whose impassioned words seem only grafted. foreizn plants on the cooler stock of the cidental mind. Icaunot but think that Sojourner, with the same culture, might have spoken words as eloquent and undying as those of the African saint Augustine or Tertullian. How grand and_ queenly a woman she might have been, with her won- derful physical vigor, her , heaving sea of emotion, her power of spiritual concep- tion, her quick penetration, and her bound- less energy. In Octoher of 1864, Sojourner conceived the idea that she must visit. President. Lincoln. aL lady accompanied her to the White Hous and intreduced her to the President as Se journer ‘Truth. who had_ come all the way from Michigan to see him. Lincoln arose, gave her his hand, and ‘made a bow, as he suid, ‘Tam pleased to see you.” The rest of. the story is best told in Sojourner’s own 3 near as possible: to him, * Mr, President, when you your seat, £ feared you woul he torn to pieces,—tor I likened’ you to Daniel who was thrown into. the lions’ den; and it the lions did not tear you into pieces, I knew it would be God that would’ save you!” And Isaid to myself, if He spared you Ll would come and see you myself before your term ot oflice was out; and Tie has done so, and - HERE I AM TO SEE you.’ Mr. Lincoln congratulated me on my having nspared.

Consterna- tion seized the passing crowd. .People, car- riages, and sc rts of every de: jption stoud still. The car was effecttially blocked up, and, before it had moved on, Sojourner had jumped abroad. ‘Then there arose 2 great shout from the crowd, ‘Ha, ha, hal she has beaten him!” ete, ‘The angry’ con- ductor told her to go forward, where the horses were, or he would put her off.

She teld him that she was neither 2 Marylander nora Virginian, to fear his threats: but was froin the Empire State of New York, and knew the Jaw as well as he did. He then let heralone, and she rode to the end of the track, much farther than she need have gone; for a ride was so rare a privilege that stie de- termined to make the most of it. She left the car exclaiming, ‘* Bless God, I HAVE HAD A RIDE!” At another time Sojourner was, walkin with Mrs. Laura Wayliand, a well-known philanthropist. Mrs. H. proposed to take the street-car, although she well knew that white people were seldom allowed to get on if accompanied by black ones As Mrs. H’ signaled the car, Sojourner stepped one side, as if to continue her walk; and, when it stopped, she ran and jumped on board too. ‘The conductor pushed her back, saying, “Get out of the way and let this lady getin!”? “Lamalady, too,” said Sojourn- er; and she got on, with no -more opposition till they were obliged to change cars. A man coming out as they were going into the next car asked the conductor if “niggers”? were allowed to ride. ‘The conductor grabbed So- journer by the shoulder, and, jerking her around, ordered her to get out, engaged in a he told him | praying fo she would not. ‘Then 3 hold of her other arm, ois.
