For the ViSitor.
THE GOLDEN CALF,

We are informed by very old' Book,
that a certain man, named Aaron, at the
request of people, called Hebrews, made
golden calf, and that the people, bowling
down, worshipped it, calling it their god,
the one who had brought them out of E.
eypt. Wsare also told that brother of
Aaron, Moses by name, who was absent
when the calf was made, upon seeing the
worship Of it, became very indignant, and
quite unceremoniously seizing the golden
god, put him into the fire, reduced him TO
a fine powder, put this into water, and
made the Hebrews drink their god, as
thousands now drink, their whiskey god.
Now was not this treating the said god
very unmercifully? And what kind of a
man vas that Moses, who dealt thus with
the golden calf?' Wonder if he was in
his ssnses at the time How impiously
did he act in destroying that god which
his own nation worshipped, and which
civilized and enlightened men of more re-
cent times worship! And then what an
outrage, may his conduct in this affair be
considered upon the letter sense Of thou
sands in this age of light and reason, and
in our own enlightened land Indeed,
the prevailing opinion of the civilized
world now seems TO be in favor of paying
homage 10 the golden calf; and although
Moses did pulverize Aaron's calf, and
make the poor Hebrews swallow il, yet
others have been set up in the temple Of
mammon, and immense crowds flock thith-
er TO pay their devOtions. The multitudes
that throDg the temple of Juggernaut, the
shrine of Mohammed, or the sacred places
and shrines of departed saints, are but as
drop-in the bucket, or the small dust Of
the balance, compared with the number
Of those who throng the temple Of the
golden calf-and il seems that in proper
ton to the advancement of civilization, so
in proportion has increased the love for,
and worship Of, this god.
Many mOderns far excel the ancient
Hebrews in their devotedness TO him.
Their love is far greater, and hence, their
inOsessedassiduiIy. in his worship. Their

energies, both OF mind and body, are fee |
ly, cheerfully expended in the servic, of
the golden god. And is this unreas,na-
blep Isit foolishp Now some have the
extreme hardihood TO assert this; bu do
such know what they sayp Are hey
compos mentis-in their right minds Let
us see.
The world has advanced in civilization
greatly since Aaron's day. People are
far more enlightened now than they we're
then. How then, can any one think Aa-
rons conduct and that Of the ancient, and
partially civilized Hebrews, was foolish
and irrational ?--since il has been sane
toned by so many wise men in tins en-
lightened age. Why, what rs tie object
of civilization, unless it be to develop
mans love and reverence for the shining
dust? Some thinking that man il immor-
tai, imagine that all true civilization should
have reference 10 the development of his
immortal nature. Believing that this
world is not his continuing city," they
seem 10 think that he should be educated
for eternity. But what poor, deluded be-
ings saoh are! They have lost sight OF
mans existence, of his "chief end"-they
have turned aside from The right god.-
Gold, gold, is the god. Man came into
existence to worship this. For this he
lives, and moves and has his being, and as
he gazes upon its dazzling splendor, his
love for it as awakened, increased. For
this he hungers and thirsts. 1t is the shi-
ming god that stimulates his energies, that
nerves him for contest WITH builetting
world. 60 ask the gold diggers in Cali
fornia, whether this is not SO, and they
will shout yes!! For this, they endure
the scorching rays Of the sun, the peltings
of the wintry storm, privation, want suC-
fering. Now what proof does all this
|
II men are IMMORTAL, why do they not act
like itl Surely it is reasonabl, to sup
pose they would. Talk to the devotees
OF tss shining god about Immortality and
eternity, and they wilflaugh at YOU. Their
god shines with such brlllancy, that they
cannot see or hear any thing else, for this
eclipses all beside. And look mw at the
deep, intense love that has been awakened
afresh in the bosoms Of thousands, for the
golden calf, by the reports that have come
from California. Why, perfect pl,ren.
zy for the god has seized upon, and hun
dreds, nay thousands have gone, and are
still preparing to go on pilgrimage where
their god is said 10 abound. And yet
some persons who say that men have souls
dare make ihsinuations about an immortal
soul, about another world, and about one
only living and true God, and about our
being under obligations to love and serve
him. Why, they might as well talk to
the wind. What conlradicts' Aeir sense
they never can believe. Their god is tan
gible. They can see him, and feel him
and this is the onethey 'go in" for wor-
shipping, irrespective of what some say
about that God who is Spirit. In the
language of tie poet, The worshippcrs o
the golden calf say,
"Gold is the strength, the soul, the beauty
| most divine;
A mask Of gold hides all deforinities!
Gold is heav ems pbysic, lile's restorative.

the following will be about the amount Of

Saturday morning visitor., 1849-02-17
$28,S60'

Total, $2S,s6o
From information received from other
points on the river, Oseola, Duroc, Erie,
Linn Creek, Tuscumbia, &c., we presume
the amount Of products for shipment will
exceed the quantity shipped at any previ-
Gus spring. The amount of Tobacco up
on the river will not be as large this sea-
son as heretofore, owing 10 short crops
and the low prices at which the article has
ruled for several years. With small
appropriation for the completion of the
improvements commenced upon the river
last season, thereby giving an assurance
to shippers, of getting their products out
at all times, the amount of produce ship
ped from the Usage river would very soon
swell itself TO a vast sum Of money.
