BOMBARDMENT OF TRlPOLi.
Dispatches, dated Both July, had arrived in
Paris announcing that the prisoners respect

about to open fire. The cause of The difficulty
was the il-treatment of two French deserlers
who had taken refuge at Trpoli, where at
tempts were made to convert them TO islamsm.
The men claimed the protection OF the French
Consul General; but, notwithstanding his in
terfe renee, they were ill-treated and thrown
into prison. Immediately on the news reaching
France, a squadron was ordered to sail from
Toulon on the Goth July for Tripoli, with Or

1918 remains where it was. All that has been
done by the government, is to strengthen our
squadron on the cousts of New Foundland,
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, to defend a
right which the United States do not and nev-
er did dispute, namely, that of retaining exclu-
svely in our possession the water within three
miles ofour shores from the encroachment of
both the French and American fishermen /;
and the American vessel, the Coral, alluded to,
was seized within a quarter OF a mile of our
own coast. Our squadron is now no larger
than the French one on the same coast. Our
right is that which demands the respect Of all
nations of the globe-one acknowledged by in
lernatonal law E; and if for many years our
successive governments have neg lected TO pro
tect their fellow subjects as France and the
United States always prot ect theirs, both in
America and in the channel, we can only lie
grateful to our present Ministers for repairing
their fatal supneness.
We shall return to this subject, upon which
beth here and across the Atlantic the public
have been most grossly miSinformed and mis-
led.''

The Bags of Days.

Suppose you had a bag of marbles, on your
shoulder to carry, and yet if every boy you met,
made you give HIM marble, your bag would
soon be empty.
We are all sent into this world by God, with
a bag, not marbles, but of days. Sometimes
death stops the little child before it has gone far
with its bag of days, and its life in this world Is
closed. But perhaps you may live for many
wears: yet do not forget that Time is always
after you, taking now day and again a day
and he will soon empty the largest bag OF days
Ifthe bag were one of the marbles instead o
DAYS, people would feel the bag lighter. and in
ouire who had taken them but many do nc
think that their bag of days is always getting
lighter, and too many find it nearly empty beior
they scarcely think aboutii.
Oh, we should never forget that every nigh
we lay down to sleep, Time has taken anothe
day out of our bag We have no ine to lose
we cannot afford to trife and therefore Will
life is before us, we must learn to improve wha
is good and useful, to be pure and holy, so tha
if we live to be old, we may look on the day
that are left in our bag without a sigh, nor regre
the days lost or IDLY spent.
That is a good prayer in the Bible" Lord
teach US so to number our days, that we may ap
ply our hearts unto wisdom" Let us often thnl
of our bag oc days, and examine it, to reckon N
how many Time has taken away and how many
are left. Let US use every one for the best pur
pose, and pray this good prayer to our Fathe
that we may not slight or abuse them.

Larres dinner is almost the sole date which you

Dinner was their Hegira-dinner was their line

but its great effects we're perceived at dinner
People now dine at two. So dned Addison for
his last thirty years: SO dined Pope, who was

There are two ways Of getting money-one is

pursuit of money, one or the other OF these
ways, is the only business reckoned entirely
" commendable and respectable" and accor

Of money by trade or by Office. There are ex

called, seldom engage in the pursuit of any thing
but money by trade or Office. This is the chic
desire of majority of the young men of talent
ambition and education. Even in colleges, mort
respect is paid to money than to genius. Tit
purse is put before the pen. In the churche
wealth is deemed better than goodness or piety

Magnetic Discover Y.

A remarkable magnetic discovery has just
been made public in England by Mr. Butler,
scientific gentleman of Brighton. A medical
gentleman of this city has favored us with the
subjoined interesting account:
BY means of an electrical machine Of great
delicacy, whichia styled the Magnetisope, Mr..
Butler is not only able to demonstrate in the
most satisfactory manner the polarization of our
bodies, and those parts whore the North and the
South pole are situated, but likewise the altera-
tions which takes place from change of position
fron the vertical and sitting positions to the re.
cumbent, as also those which take place from
other circumstances He is also able to demon
strate most clearly the difference between the
male and female currents, and that the latter are

the arms and hands arrest the effects of these
currents upon the instrument. Dead '"imal

The -Four Master Spirits.

Happening to cast my eyes over the portraits
i'll a gallery Of paintings, / remarked that they
were so arranged as to give four personages-
Alexander, Hannibal. Cesar, and Bonaparte--
the most conspicuous places. | had seen the
same before, but never did smiar train of
reflections arse in my bosom, as when my mind
now hastily glanced over their several histories
Alexander, having climbed the dizzy heights of
ambition, and with his temples bound with the
chapIets dipped in the blood of countless ma
tions, looked upon conquered world and wept
on fire, and died in disgraceful scene Of de-
bauch
Hannibal, after having, to the astonishmen.
and CONSERVATION of Rome, passed the Alps
and having put to fight the armies of this mis-
tress Of the world" and stripped three bushels
Of gold rings from the fingers Of her slaughtered
knights, and made her very foundation quake
returned to his country to be DETAINED, to bo
driven in exile, and to die at last by poison ad-
ministered by his own hand, unlamented and un-
wept in foreign cline.
Cesar, after having taken eight hundred
cities, and dyed his garments in the blood Of
his fellow men-after having pursued to death
the only rival on earth--wgs sssasslna,ed by
those he considered his nearest friends, and at
the very point in which he had gained the high
est point of his ambition.
Bonaparte, whose mandate kings and priests
obeyed, after having filled the earth with the
terror Of his name-sfter having deluged Europe
with tears and blood, and clothed the world in
sackclcth-clOsed his days in lonely banishment
almost exiled from the world, yet where he
could sometimes see his country's banner waving
over the deep, but which would not, or could
not bring him aid
Thus those four men, who from the peculiar
situations of their portraits seemed to stand as
representatives Of all those who the world calls
"great, those four who made the earth tremblc
10 its centre-severaly died-one by intoxica-
ton, the second by suicide, the third by assas-
sination, and the last in lonely exile.
How vain is the greatness of this world How
fearful is the gift of genius, if it be abused -
Who that is now living would not rather die the
death of the humble, righteous man, than that of
Alexander, or Hannibal, Or Cesar, or Napoleon
