tor DR.. WEIGH, and partly, We doub. not,
in consequence Of the announcement made
from the pulpit in the morning, that the

and warm sympathies Of his people, in be.

man, was noted for his estimable christian
character, habits Of industry, strict integri-
~, and learning and Intelligence beyond

CHAPTER XVIII.

CHAPTER XVIII.
l. Now Zachary Taylor, the Kings Captain
Of the Host encamped against Ma,amoras,
which is on the other side Of the Grea, River,
and he threw up defences mighty and strong.
2. And Arista the Chief man Of the Next
cans, grew wro,h that Zachary Taylor should
do this thing, and he gathered all his host to-
gether, and there were thousands of horses and
men al arms, even as the sands Of the sea.
3. And Arisia, the New Leonite sent mes
sengers to Zachary Taylor the Virginian and
said unto him, thus saith Arista the New
Leonie.
4. Thy silver and thy gold are mine; thy
men and thy horses and thy big guns, and
thy little guns, even myself, are mine.
5. And Zachary Taylor answered and said,
General, o Arista, according 70 thy saying, |
am thine and all that have, but thou wilt
surely come and take me and mine.
6. And the messengers came again and
said, thus speaketh Arista the New Leonite,
saying, although have sent unto thee, saying,
thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold,
and thine arms, and thy men,
T. Yet will send my servants unto thee to
morrow, about this time, and they shall search
hy camp, and even pass it about; and it shall
be, they shall take thee and thine and take them
all even unto Mexico, the chief city of Paroles.

ed, God and Liberty!
g. Then Zachary Taylor rose up from his
seat and spake with voice Of tnunder, and
saith unto the Messengers, tell the General,
All thai thou has sent word thou wilt do, come
and do. And the Messengers departed and
brought Arsta word again
g. And Arista the New Leonite sent unto
Zachary Taylor and said, do so unto me, and
more also, if the dust Of Tamaulipas and
Texas shall suffice for handfuls for all the peo-
pie that follow me.
10. AID Zachary Taylor answered and said !,
tell him, Let not him that girdeth on his har-
ness, boast himself as he that putteth il off.
IL. And il came TO pass, when Arista heard
this message, as he was drinking, he and the
chiefs in the pavilions Of Matamoras, that he
said unto his servants, Set yourselves in array.
And they set themselves in array against
Zachary Taylor the Captain of the host of
Polk the King.

of considerable advantage to as Individually !;
