"OUn FLAG THERE Mr.. Bryant, in letter
from Athens, describing the difficulties of DIR. King,
the American missionary, with the government, says
8" One Sunday large crowd Of Greeks, led by
priest of their church, assembled in his house and
garden to hear one of his discorrses. His subject
was the duty of religious toleration. AT the close
the priest asked question concerning some things
advanced in the discussion, to which DR.. King gavo
prudent answer. The priest then demand ed an
explanation of certain positions laid down in another
discourse, which DR.. King declined giving at that
time observing that he would agree to appoint al
most any other day for the discussion. The multi
tude Immediately Joined the priest in demanding that
the discussion should go at that moment, with
such fury and noise that his friends thought his life
in danger. 1t happened at the time that the Ameri.
can consul was absent from Athens and the functions
of the Office were delegated to DR.. King, An Amer
lean flag day or two previous had beenreceived by
DIR. King from Washington. In the midst of the
tumult, at the very moment when the multitude
seemed ready to tear him TO pieces, he bethought
himself OF the flag, and, hastily unrong it. let it

TRUE AND BEAUTIFUL. The longer look at
this subject (slavery,) the fully convin-
ced that the best friends of the slave are the dwell
ers in his own South. In that South are those who
received him poor naked savage fresh from Africa
and the horrors of the middle passage; they have
clothed him, fed him, visited him in sickness, have
taken charge of his children in infancy and provided
for him in helpless old age; have taught him Sa-
viour's name, and been instrumental in shedding
abroad in his heart Savour's love, and preparing
for him crown and kingdom in Heaven. A whole
nation of his people have grown up here and. under
the genial influence of Southern homes, they have
been elevated from barbarisn to civilization and chris
taniZation, with rapidity and extent to which
history shows parallel. A part of his people
have gene back to Africa, bearing with them the
priceless treasure of the gospel-a pensation
ample for all their hardships; of them are go.
ing to join those already there others go, and
what is to be the final result will be known perhaps
in that day when Ethiopia shall stretch forth her
hands ID BOD. In all this process of elevating in
the whole people from barbarism, whose
hands have piled the lever but those of the Southern
nenl Who have had the responsibility, care, vex-
alton, expense, even TO the mpovershment of their
lands and their families, but the people OF the South!
We believe thai God. in his providence, is working
for Afcas sons, both their own and in this land,
through what for the time seems an evil, and that
the final development will be full of JOY and glad
ness; and the results will then be traced TO their
right sources. when Uncle Toms Cabin shall have
crumbled to the Dust and Mrs. Stoves name, her
silver salver, and her British banquets remenb-
cred no more. Pres6yteridn, IP6ila.1

MR. EvERETT's LECTURE. The New York press
is quite unanimous and lavish in its praise of the
brilliant address of the Massachusetts Senator which
appeared in full in the Republic of yesterday. The
Evening Post and Mirror, while they seem duly to
appreciate the literary merits Of the performance, also
look with satisfaction at its Pecunary results. The
former says: Z" AS financial measure, the Historical
Society look upon it the browning effort of the
season. The editor of the Mirror, having been ac
customed view matters in national light, remarks
that " advertisement of public lands alone,

Millions
correspondent of the Boston Transcript, writing
from New York, says of MIR. Everett:
{" For two hours Wednesday evening this &C.
complished orator enchanted the delighted attention
of of the largest and most intelligent audiences
gathered in New York. The scene presented
at Metropolitan Hall was beautiful and imposing;
seen from the Stage, the sea of human faces-everY
eye rvited on the speaker-was truly sublime. For
tunately the evening cool and pleasant. The
deep and sustained quietude Of the vast hroDg, and
the unanimity seasonabeness and enthusiasm OF the
applause, the best evidence of the orators en-

The most felicitous variety marked his address now
rising TO the highest point of rhetorical embellish
ment, and again flowing with the easy grace of COL
loqual talent; one moment argumentat!ve and anoth-
er humorous; anecdotca and philosophical by turns;

and appropriate, that the audience seemed spe-bound

TheTeiwas quite an excitement IN California
against the "yillanous Mexicans in California
when The news of the difficulty between General
Lane and Governor Trias came TO hand. In the
Assembly, on the morning of the I'd, the follow
ing preamble and resolutions were offered and de-
bated: - sssee5at.
Whereas common rumor has informed US that
the Government of Mexico has not hesitated to
violate the solemn treaty entered into with the
United States at Guadalupe Hidalgo, on the I'd
day of February, 1913; and whereas, through the
same channel, we have learned that the Military
Governor OF New Mexico CGen. Lane) has Sc zed
upon certain lands in dispute between the two
high contracting parties, and from hence We an
tclpate o speedy war between those Powers:
Therefore
Resol1ed, That committee of three be appoin-
ted to draught joint resolution, or bill, author
izng certain persons to organize ten companies
ofmounted men, without expense to the Slate, and
granting them the right5sto repair TO a spot
within and near The line of the State where il
touches the river ella, there to remain SO long as
they choose, at their own cost, or until requsi-
tion shall been made upon the State for troops, in
the event of a war in Mexico. -@i--i
The member who moved the resolution said that
it was well known that Gen. Santa Anna was
again President of Mexico, and would probably
turn his attention Immediately to the northern
provinces of that country; and that the safety o.
frontier required the presence of large force
there, as war was very likely to commence be.
tween that nation and our own so suddenly that
troops could not be obtained from the East in sea-
son. Quite an animated debate grew out of this
movement, in which many of the ablest members
took part. 1t was proposed at first to refer it &c
the COMMITTEE on Federal Relations, and then tc
the,Gommittee Of Ways and Means; lut the fina
result was a motion to lay on the table, which
prevailed, The debate, howeye;, goes 10 show
that the "hearts of the people are prepared TO
war; whenever it may come. TIE course ofGoy
Trias is ON all hands spoken of as ..outrageous;'
no body, doubling that Gov. Lane was in tn,
right. -'.i. sss
