Miscellaneous Selections.
THE IlIND00 FAITH.

Bayard Taylor has been making OBJ
servations in India. In a recent letter
to the Tribune, he gives an account oil
the Hindoo faith. Writing from Bom-
bay, he says: "The Hindoo faith, in its
original and pure form, was c9ns;stsn!
monotheism, and no doubt is still un-
derstood so by the more intellectual ol
its professors. Theparent deity, Brehm,
was an invisible aud omnipotent God,
the maker Of Heaven and earth, and,
like the divinity of The Buddists, loo
great for mortal comprehension. The
three deities who sprang from him may
be regarded rather as personifcaiions Of
his attributes, than as distinct PERSONAL
tiles. These deities, who form the
T,awti, orHindoo trinity, are Brah-
ma, the creator Vishnu, the prcscrverj
and silva, the destroyer. Among the
emblems of the latter is newborn in
ian,, showing that life is continually re-
produced from death. From these
there spring host ot inferior deities,
who with their progeny, amount 10 the
number Of thirty-three millions, Of
whom three millions, are evil, and the
remainder good. Here the preponder-
ance Ct good over evil in The govern
ment Of the world, and consequently
the beniGcence of the ruling Deity is
sirikingly acknowledged. The original
faith has greatly degencEa'cd, as all the
old religions have; and among the Igno-
rant millions exists only in the most ez-
traordinary superstItiona and the gross
est forms Of idolatry; but no one can
deny the simple grandeur OF It's first
conception"

THE SWEARING ROOM.

The Baltimore Sun oil The 10Th says:
,"A day or two since, a gentcclIy
dressed man, and having all the appear
ance Of gentleman, walked into the
bar.room Of one Of our most respecta-
Bile hotels, and perhaps by way ofshow-
ing his consequence, atrutted about the
room, asking questions, aud interlard-
ing his language with any amount Of
oalhs, especially annoyingto the land
lord and several other persons present.
The landlord al last went to him and
quietly calling him aside, told him that
the language he was using was exceed
ingly d,sagteeable in that place-fur-
lhpr, that there was private room, par
ticularly fitted up, which was called
the "swearing room," and il he would
only go there he might swear 10 his
hearts content. The stranger look the
rebuke kindly, and no more swearing
was heard from his lips al that time.

George Bancroft, in a lecture before
the New York Historical Society, pays
an eloquent tribute 10 the philosopher:
"Not half Of Frauklin's merits hare
been told. He was the true father OF
the American Union. II was he who
went forth to lay the foundation Of that
great design at Albany, and in New
York he lifted up his voice. Here a.
mong US he appeared as the apostle Of
the Union. Il was Franklin who sug-
ges.ed the Congress Of l774: and but
lor his wisdom, and the confidence that
wisdom inspired, it is matter Of doubt
whether that Congress would have ta-
ken effect. IT was Franklin who sug-
gested The bond Of the. Union which
binds these States from Florida 10 Maine.
franklin was the greatest diplomatist OF
the eighteenth century. He neyer
spoke a word too soon: he never spoke
a word too much; he never failed I"
speak the right word 1.-THE right season."

THE GREAT VICTORY,

The Detroi! Temperance Advocate,
paper which has fought nobly in the
great battle for prohibition in Michigan,
comes to US with its columns filled with
the records of the triumphant vote cast
on the Goth uIt. As our readers are
deeply and Justly interested in this
great victory of the Right, we quote
the following eloquent account oi the
battle from the Advocate.
A GLonIous VlcroRY The most
glorious victory ever achieved for tenn
perance, was gained in Michigan, on The
2Olh day of June, 1858! Never be.
fore did the people OF State meet at
the ballot box for the sole purpose ol
deciding, by legal vote, the simple
question Of prohibition, or free trade in
strong drinks,-and never was a ques-
ton more satisfactorily orpTomptly an
swered. The sovereign people Of
Michigan, on that day, left their farms,
their workshops, and their places Of
business, and by the deliberate exercise
of the highest right Of lreemen, express
ed their views on this great question, IN
a way not to be misunderstood. The
result is in every respect highly salts
factory TO the friends Of prohibilion.-
The whole vote was very large, much
larger than the most sanguine had ex-
pected it would be,-and the majority
is sufficient TO carry the law, il all who
stayed at home had gone and voted a.
gainst it! The strongest holds of The
liquor interests have been most glorious
ly defeated, and that, too, wherebut few
expected it.
The city oil Detroit was considered
the hardes! point. The whiskcy inter-
est was strong here. Gros shops were
numerous, and large amount Of capital
invested in the manufacture and sale Of
strong drink. The foreign population
was supposed to be against US, aud large
numbers Of our business men, it was
feared, were Indifferent 10 the subject,
and would not take the trouble 10 help
US. But the result las shown that our
fears were in great degree groundless.
The German and French population
mostly voted against us, bu; large num-
bers oil the Irish voted for the law; and
many went to the polls and worked like
earnest men to support it: We were
happily disappointed in this direction,
and it is a matter Of rejoicing, that the
hard working sons ofErin begin to un-
t,dessland where llfeir,irue inlerests"lIe'
When we went 10 vote, we were met
| by d whole-souIed lr!shman, who very
politely invited US 10 vote "Xcs,' re-
marking that: if the gTog shops were
out Of The way, the Irish would do as
well as other people e,--that liquor, more
than anything else, KEEP. them under
ioot, and he wanted 10 get it out ol the
way.
II was lor this reason that hundreds
oil lrishmen voted for the law in this
city, and many in other parts oil The
State.
The battle has been we'll fought, and
the victory well gained.
