H.iGe OF ST. Marlx.

This Evangelist was of a, Jewish
family and Of the tribe, Of Levi
Ehsebius tells us that he was sent into
. Egypt ! y ST. Peterto preach iheg gos-
pel, and that he planted a church in
Alexandria, the capital of Egypt. ST.
Mark did not confne himself TO Alex
andria and the orleuliai parts OF
Egypt, but removed westward TO Ly-
bia, passing through the countries of
Melnacia, Pentapolis, anl Others ad-
jaceu' where, though the people were
both barbarous in their manners and
ido,atrous in their worship, yet he
p eyailed OH them to embrace The
teneis of the gospel.
Alter this long tour, he returned to
Alexandria, where he preachedwlth
the greatest freedom. But the ruth
less senemyiof thesonls ofmen would
not suffer the apostle to continue in
peace and quietness, for while he
was assiduously laboring in the yina-
yard of his master, the idoIatrous m
habitats, about the time of Easter,
when they were celebrating the So
lemnities of Scraps, unanimously en-
tered the church, forced ST. Mark,
then performing divine service, thence
and, binding his feet with cords, drag
ged him throughthe streets and over
the most craggy places, TO the Buce-
lus, precipice near the sea, leaving
him there III a lonesome prison for
the night, where it is said the Saviour
appeared TO him in vision, conpo-
sing and encouraging his soul. under
the ruins of his shattered body
The next morning early, the trage
dy began airesh, for they dragged
him about in the same cruel and bar
barous manner till he expired. But
their malice did not end with his
death; they burnt his IN ing ed body

the horrid tragedy was over, gather

mans, (or some that were taken for
his) were afterwards with great
pomp, removed TO Venice, where
they were religiously honoled, and

AMI patron of that State.
He suffered martyrdom on the

The Teamper ofWomem


The Temper of Women.
In the Lexington papers, just ru5-
lished in London, we have some
good anecdotes of society two hun
dred and fifty years ago.
"A few days ago two ladies met
in narrow street at ten clock in
the morning. Neither chose to per-
init her carriage to be drawn back
and they remained without moving
for six hours. A little after IL o :
clock they sent for some refreshment
for themselves and food for their hor-
ses. Each was firmly resolved to
stay the night there rather than go
back; and they would have done so,
but a tavern kecpcrin the street, who
was prevented by their obstinacy
from bringing to his door cart la
den with wine, went in search ofthe
commissary of the district, who at
length, hut with much trouble, sue
ceeded in effeciing an arrangement
upon these terms-that each should
retire ut the same moment, and that
neither should pass through the
street."
And here another, which would
Versify into a fine horrible balIad-as
grand and ghastIy as Alfred Tenny-
sons Sisters .......
"The Parliament has lately con
firmed the sentence ofdeath passed
on two daughters Of gentleman of
g Anjou, named MadaillOn, for the
murder of the lover oftheir younger
sister. II appears that he was en-
gagged to be marriedto the eldest sis
ter, and passing over ihe second, he
transferred his addresses tothe youn-
gest The two eldest sisters, in re-
Venge, invited him to play at blind.
mans buff, and while one bound his
eyes, The other cut his throat"
And this is similar ..l
''In Piedmont "a gentleman adj
dressed at the same time one lady
who was rich and plain, and one who
swdS poor and very beadtifuk and
they, by chance becoming acquaint-
ed, exhibited 10 each other their cor
respondence with the yaciIating To-

A TRUE UHRIsTIAN.-During a
war IN Germany, the captain Of a
troop of cavalry was ordered out on
a foraging party. He marched al
the headof his troop, TO the quarter
assigned him; a solitary vale, uncut
tiyaied, and nearly covered with
wood. In the middle of it stood a
small cottage, the residence ola poor
man, one of'the Moravan brethren.
On perceiving the hut, The captain
knocked at the door, when ihe aged
pious son ofpoverly made his appear
anee. His beard and locks were sill
ve'ed by age, while his comtenance
bespoke that inward peace, which
ihe world cannot give, nortake away.

they arrived at another field of bar

mounted, cut down The. gram, bound
