Remarkable Movement for the Restoration
OF the Jews and Redemption OF the Holy
Land.
We publish in this days paper a very remarkable
prophecy, by very remarkable man, respecting the
restoration OF the scattered children OF Israel to
the land OF their former glory and prosperity This
singular document must al once attract the keenesl
attention from the Gentle world and in the ears
of the posterity of Abraham, OF Isaac and of ia
cob whose harp has SO long hung upon the willow,
it will sound as the gladstone message of the second
Moses, who has come TO proclaim that the year OF
the redeemed has come. The whole eplstle is cha.
racrerized by such impress of prophetic au-
thority-presents such startling facts illustrative OF
the present wealth and strength of the Jewish peo-
ple-and announces with such solemnlty the neal
approach of the latter day Of glory, that even the
thoughtless and profane can hardly fail to be struck
dumb, and nnbeef itself be startled into convic-
ton OF the truth.
The Prophet TO whom has been vouchsated the
foresight of what is to come, and who be-
holds from the summit of Pisgah, the former glo-
ries of the '' old heroic race" revived, is none
other than Noah-yea, the Mordeca Mannasseh
Noah, who has been daily in midst--the same
Noah, who had some years ago faint glimmering
OF the same sublime future, which he hath
clearly revealed in all its beatifc brightness
All our readers-Jew and Gentlle-recolect the
great project for the settlement of Grand Island,
and the gathering there Of the dispersed tribes, and
the erection of the Kingdom OF the Jews according
to the ancient model The failure of that rnagnf-
cent scheme is also well known And why did it
not succeed The hour had not come. The time
fnll, Buf he off he inn
is widely different. All the tokens of the near
approach OF the year of jubilee, predicted by the
Evangelical Prophet and the other Hebrew seers,
who in the days OF the captivity were enabled to
pierce the dim unknown of futurity, now present
themselves OH all hands Time and space, and the
hitherto impossible barriers of Nature, have been
made subject to mans control The discovery OF
steam.power, and its thousand applications, have
in single generation advanced the world ages IN
civilization. The transmission of intelligence be.
tween remote points has become swift as the
winged messengers of heaven. Wars have ceased
upon the earth. Mankind, too, have become ex-
ceedingly just and virtuous, and SO mercful, in
this latitude least, that all sorts of rogues and
criminals are tendery exhorted to repent and then
set free. Everything in fact clearly evinces that
the Millennium draws very nigh, and that the
" favored people" quite justified in lifting UP
their heads, and crying aloud" Rejoice, for the
day of our deliverance is at hand %
And not only has the hour come, but with 1t the
MAN. No one can doubt that Noah is the Prophet.
There has been "a remarkable fitting of him out,
1t were TOR this sublime work. He has been gra-
dually set free from the bonds the Gentle werld.
After connexion with all parties, he is now dsse-
vered from all. After trying his hand at every
thing, and being warned and rebuked by uniform
failure, he is conducted in the right path, and
hears as did the Prophet of old, voice crying in
both his ears, 'Ths is the way, walk We in it,
Besides all this remarkable and special interposi-
ton, it has been discovered that the Prophet Noah
isa neal descen of King David, and is of course,
of the blood royal, and entitled to the crown. He
certainly bears strong family likeness to thai
Kingly line, Judging from the medals discovered in
the land of Judea David had very large hooked
nose-so has Noah. David had thick neck-so
has Noah. David waxed fat in the latter days of
his pilgrimage-so has Noah David, too, was &C.
caslonaly wrathy, and got red in the face-so does
Noah King Solomon, too, resembed Noah
Solomon was a wise man-so Is Noah Solomon
had so much wisdom that he often didn't know
what to do with it-precisely so with Noah. Solo
mon was tirs-rate Judge of beauty-so is Noah. 1t
Jews has come, and that the Prophet who is TO
lead the people again across the Red Sea, has
arisen, For the passage of the Red Sea was but
the duplication Of the greater passage across the
Atlantic in the latter day.
II thus becomes an interesting and important
question, what is the duty of the Christian world
The Prophet Noah has declared in the most posi-
tive Manner that the second advent cannot come
till the restoration be accomplished. Well, then,
the duty OF all "pious Christians is to aid in
bringing about this restoration This is as clear as
Bishop Hughes sylloglsms, the logic of thu
Courier and Enquirer. Let public meeting then
be convened at once, in this city, in order to
mence the great movement for the restoration OF
the Jews. Measures should, at once, be taken for
the preparation of an expedition to the Holy City,
with Noah, the royal seer, at its head. Annexa-
ton is the order of the day; and we don't why
the rich fields of Canaan, where Isaac Of old went
forth to mediate, and the stately heights of the
Holy City, where the mysterious religion OF
types and symbols was enshrned in all its dread
solemnity, should not be redeemed. The cedars
of Lebanon make rs-rate stuff for tables, and the
fertile plains of Palestine flow with honey and
with oil as bounteously of old.
The prospects Of the Prophet and his race are
bright and fair as the morning dawn on Mount
Olivet Joe Smiths forces nought COM
pared with the seven millions of the tribes. Joe's
best policy is clear. Let him give up the struggle
with the Phstines around him, and Join the
standard Of the greater than he-the Prophet Noah
Father Miller, too, and all the other enlightened
spirits Of the time, WILL OF course fall in with thus
movement. We have no space now to dwell on
the results of this singular development, nor can
we even hint at the thousand interesting subjects
of inquiry which suggest themselves We know
not what form OF government proposed for the
restored nation, whether IL will be kingIy, like
that of David, or whether 1t will be similar to the
administration Of the Judges We can only add
the suggestion, that if it be like King Solomons
system, the number of wives and concubines
should be within reasonable bounds and instead
