MRS MowATr, THE AcrREss.-The Baltimore
Patriot says:-s'A few years ago Mrs. Mowatt en-
gagged little English girl, without any recon-
mendation but her appearance, to wait upon her.
The child had not been many months in her situ
alton before her father and mother, who resided in
Harlem, New York, died. leaving two orphan boys
without friend protector in the world Although
the children had no more claim upon her than upon
the whole community, Mrs. Mowatt, with gene
rosity that many will style romantic adopted all
the three children, placed the boys with an honest
farmer, at Greenfield Hill, Connecticut, and sent
them to school, and placed the girl in family
where ahe could be well educated and brought up.
For some six or seven years Mrs. M supported
these children by her own upaided efforts, and on
her return from Europe her care was more than
repaid by finding the boys grown into fine manly
young men, able to help themselves, and the girl
an accomplished and estimabc young lady. Re
Gently Mrs. M. has received accounts from Eng
land which render it probable that these orphan
children have wealthy relative, who has been ig
norant of their fate, and from whom they are like
ly to inherit large property.

GENERALS SANTA CRUz AND CRvz.-Ths lately
published account of revolution in Chile has
called forth many inquiries from those whose slight
acquaintance with the histories Of the republics of
South America does not enable them to divest the
reports of blunders.
Generals Santa Cruz and Cruz have figured
tensively in the affairs of Bolivia, Peru and Chile
and it ia General Cruz, not Santa Cruz, in whose
favor the revolution in Chile is reported to have
been made.
General Santa Cruz born in Bolivia, and has
several times held the Presidency OF that republic.
In 1886 he chosen Protector President Of
the eru-Rolivian Confederacy" In 1888 Chile
sent an army against the confederacy. General
Bulnes, late President of Chile, had command of
this army and General Cruz accompanied him in
a subordinate position. The battle of Yungay
closed the campaign. with the defeat of the Peru
Bolivian forces under the Protector Santa Cruz,
and since 1889 he has taken no active part in po-
ltical affairs. He now resides in Paris as the min
ister of Bolivia TO England, France, Spain, and
other European powers, and is universally es
teemed for hs diplomatic abilities and the sinceri-
ty and amiability of his character.
General Cruz ia by birth Chilian, and has for
several years been stationed in the department of
Conception, in command of that portion of the
army which is intended defence against the
incursons of the Araucano Indians, famous war
like tribe.
He accompanied the Chilian army Gas we have
before stately which sent in 1888 against San.
ia Cruz, and has held many important offices un
der government; and, from our knowledge OF his
character, we feel persuaded that his name has
been used by the revolutoniss without his consent
and in opposition to his wishes and sense OF right

The Syracuse Star mentions the fact that Cen
cra Storms the Democratic candidate for the office
of State Prison Inspector, is and has long been,
active member of the Native American party. He
the grand marshal at the Native American
celebration in New York four years ago, and is
now a member of one of the Native American
lodges OF that city. What is still more important,
General Storms on Friday last received the nom-
nation for State Prison Inspector from the Native
American Working Mems party, at their conven-
tion held in New York.
II is therefore beyond a doubt that General
Storms is thoroughly identified with the Native
American party. This is fact which deserves to
be noted in every Wing paper in the State, and
one that is destined to have an important bearing
upon the election.
Mr.. Wells, the opponeht of General Storms, is a
republican of the old school, who knows differ
ence, and will make distinction, between ma
tive and adopted citizens; and who will treat with
kindness and courtesy all, whether Irish, Germans,
or Americans, with whom he may be brought in
contact Troy Whfg.

Mr.. GIiddon then reviewed The argament that

MIR. Gliddon then reviewed the argument tina
the Chinese are referred to in Isaiah xix, IL J
wherein ."the land of SINIM" is mentioned
Stripping away the plural IN, there remains fhe
word SIN; supposed by some to mean China, be.
cause the Chinese name for their own country
is THSlN. Now the whole context of Isaiah
refers to the return of the Jews from Babylonish
captivity. The word SIN cannot apply to the
Stn OF Genesis x, II. because they are Cd,aaa-
nites; nor to the evidences of SIM" (Exo.
XVI, l-xgil, Numbers xxxiii, I2)-fraversed
oy The lsraeites in journeying from Egypt to
Palestine, nor the SIN of Ezekiel, xxx, is, 16,)
because this is Pelusum. the most easterly city
OF Egypt. called by the Arabs, Teen to this day.
Without attempting forced constructions, the
Sin OF Isaiah must refer TO city of Mesopo-
tamla, on the Western banks of the Tigris, op>
posIie the river Lucus: termed Cang by tie
Romans, Kainai, by the Greeks, and Sem by
the Arabs; as the most remote point where the
Jewish exiles were held in bondage by the Ba
byionians, confirmed by the Septuagint version
OF this verse; wherein SINIM is paraphrased by
Gi Person, "a land of the Persians.''
1t is utterly impossible that captive Babyloni-
an lsraelites could have been exied to, or have
returned from China in the 9th century B. c.;
nor did Jews establish themselves in China until
several centuries after the Christian era. 1t is
equally impossible that the Alexandran trans.
lator OF the Bible into Greek, between b C. 200
and l30, could have known any thing about
China; a country, as we have seen above, un-
known TO nations West Of the Euphrates pre-
viously to the time Of TRAJAN, A. d. LOG; or
nearly 800 years after the Septuagint had al
ready been published"
MIR. Glidd0n introduced further argument;
which was that China was not called THSIN,
until 450 years after Isaiah wrote!
"Chinese history attests, that from previous
ly obscure province, called THSlN. between B.
C. 249 and 206, the son of a stabe-groom, amid
tremendous political eonvulsions--the Napoleon
of China Thsin. Chi. Ho ang-I ri. founded the
fourth dynasty; and the Chinese, who never be-
fore his reign had called their vast empire
TliSlN, after his reign adopted this appellative
tor their whole country, (whence we derive our
modernized word China
This dilemma is thus presented. Either
Isaiah, by the word SINIM, does not refer to the
Chinese, or, inasrnuch as the Chinese Empire
was not called ThSin before the year B G. 249,
(some $50 years after Isaiah wrote.) the verse
II OF chap. AZ of the book called "lsaiah" can
not possibly have been penned by Isaiah. but by
some unknown interpolator, who must have
lived after A. D. 1865, when history shows that
the existence Of China as country first became
known to nations situated West os the Eu-
pirates.

burg, Md, and entered into the service of

grower of cabbages! The Institution. ac-
cording to the custom with the Roman
Catholic Colleges in this country, has a
highly cultivated small farm attached to it.

OF the lads of the Institution, puzzling
over his task in Cicero, Hughes requested
him to let him look at the book. and ask

TO the boy in the same way the fact that he
was proficient in Greek. Shortly after
wards, the boy getting stumped on les
son in Homer, repaired to the gardener

produced as his own, satisfied his tutor by
the elegance and perfect correctness with
which it was rendered into English, that
it was not the work of the boy. The lat

helped him on in his lesson, and surprised
all by declaring that it was "onIy Johnny,
the gardener lad.' Hughes was instantly
summoned before the faculty. who were
incredulous as to the truth of the pupils

him, when it turned out that he was by
far the best Greek and Latin scholar in
the Institution. With the capital judg-
ment of those who manage the affairs Of
the Jesu:ts everywhere, John Hughes was
instantly made 10 exchange his cabbages
for his humanities, and at once became
tutor in the Institution.
This was the commencement of the
superStruclure of his fortune and fame,
the foundation being his native intellect
and his energy, industry and prohity. from
his earliest infancy. He soon became the
leading spirit of the Institution, where he
remained, until his fame spreading through
out the country, his church authorities
called him TO labor IN the wider and more
important field of the world. There are
lessons in these excerpt from the history of
John Hughes, which youth everywhere

But now only look I'm fright TO behold,
That beauty boasted has fed;
You would think was nearly hundred

When I'm raising my hand to my head
For it trembles and shakes like the earth

And Im constantly spilling my tea;
And whenever | speak / make awfu; mis-

Till every ones laughing at me.
The ladies' don't love me, and this can trace
To the loss of my aquine nose,
Like an overgrown strawberry stuck on my

Still larger and larger it grows;
And havn't cent in my pocket or purse,
And my clothes are all dirty and torn;
Oh! you old brandy bottle, you've been a
sad curse,
And wish lad never been born!
You old brandy bottle I'll love you no more,
You have ruined my body and soul;
I'll dash you to pieces, and swear from this
hour,
To give up both you and the bowl,
And I'll go now and sign-I could surely do

On that pledge all my hope repose,
And I'll get back my money in pocket and
