A PlLGRlM.-ln the ship Ontario, at New
York, from England, came passenger Miss
Harriet Livermore. returning from pill
grimage to the Holy Land.
This, if we mistake not, is the second Vi
station which that extraordinary woman
has made without any attendant to Jerusa-
lem-wandering in the valley of Jehosophat,
bathing in the stream of Jordan, washing
her feet in Kedron, straying to the manager
at Bethlehem, and back to the summit of
Olivet, gathering pomgranates in Gethse-
name, kneeing on Cavalry, and stretching
herself in the sepulchre "hewn in stone."
Armies of mailed men, that went to re-
deem the temple and the tomb, whiten the
plains of Syria with their bleached bones
and guarded caravans fall prey to robbers
from the Desert, as they journey towards
Jerusalem.-And yet lonely woman, with
no kindred on the soil no knowledge of their
language, and no money to bribe TO protec-
ton, goes up from the shores of the Levant,
and the plague touches her not. Civil war
that devastates, spares her. The robber,
whose trade seems to have the prescription
of ages, assails her not in her progress.
And in the city, where poverty and suspi-
cion bar the door, and the zeal Of the Mos
lem makes merit of procuring misery or
death to the christian pilgrim, there the vic
ket gate Of the convent opens for her re-
ception, and the wasting meal, and the de-
caying cruise of the mendicant, seemed to
be blessed to increase. for her comforts.
1t is delightful TO sit and listen TO the
tales OF the wayfarer towards jerusalem
and the sojourner within its gates. Others
go hedged about with firmans and DEGREES
defended with spear, supported with stall
and provided with scrip. They enter no
the innermost recesses Of the houses anC
hearts of the people, and yet attempt to dc

what they see at the wells and hear at tn
caravansaries. 1t is not strange that sue

physical, from Dan to Beersheba.
