Its waters, which never freeze, although sur
Founded by snow during great part of the

on the bottom are distinctly visible at depth
Of thirty or forty feet. Upon the eastern Side
OF the lake is a vast cavern extending to an un-
known distance into the heart Of the mountain.
The entrance is arohed in peculiar manner
and the place, which has never been explored

All Christian authors, however, are entirel,
agreed that these unlawful peeps into the FL,
ture are but snares fer sinners, set by the Eyi
0nesand that Satan and his people, if they hav.
fore-knowiedge beyond US, only lend us 60 much
oft az may help US to our destruction. 1t would
indeed. be rather strange If the Father Of Lie,
should be q prophet ~ IS
There remains butone more order Of prophetic
pretensions, and that an innocent one, to which
these revelations Of our Manifest Destiny can be
referred. Ii is that.to which Pope alludes, wher
he says:
Some secret truths, from learned pride concealed
70 maids alone and children are revealed.
Milton, too himself half q prophet tells Vi
tnst the pure can prophecy
sodear to heaven Ia sanity chastity.
Ihht when q soul is found sincerely so,
Ten Thousand ltveried angels ,ackey her.
Driving far on each thing Of sin and guilt

TEL her Of things which no gross ear can hear >
but here again we are met by an insuperahle
difficulty For Heaven knows that these polisi-
cal prophets are anything but maids; and
though thy may be children in everything bur
innocence, Jet that is o theory to which they.
will b rsily assent.
lis thus clear that these seers of Manifest
Destiny are not the prophets of Inspiration, nor
Of 1anocspee so that, if they be not the Deyils.
they can only be one last sort---that which is
thus described:

INTRODUCING THE EaPERoR-An American
gentleman in Paris, writing to the National In
telligencer, speaks Of Mr.. Mason, our Minister to
France, as an estimable man, highly respected
by Americans in Paris, but singularlv oneer in
some things. The writer relates the following:
$ AT a recent leyee our good tempered Minis
ter, at the head of some thirty or more of his
countrymen, said to the Emperor, as he stopped
before the group, s. Permit me to introduce your
Majesty to my conntrymen; they are all Amer
leans" This turning of the tables, by introdu-
eng the Emperor, only created smile; but
one OF the group made much more unfortunate
error He was a New Yorker, and had been, it
appears, personally acquainted with Louis Ma
poeon, when, in former days, the latter was in
that city. of this, in very bad taste, he re-
minded the Emperor, and then added 81 hone
to have the pleasure of again seeing your Males
ty in New York. This was almost as bad as
the speech of q lady to George the Third, $ that

The ADMINISTRATION AND SPAN.-Eeferring
to the attitude in which cur Government has SO
| absufdly placed itself as to the Black Warrior
case, the Louisville Journal makes the follow
ing very just remarks:
Our Government may have causes enough Of
complaint against Spain, but evidently the adj
ministration has made great mistake in plant.
ing itself so precipitateiy and with such vehe-
menoe upon the Black Warrior case No doubt
actual outrages on American rights have been
perpetrated by the Cuban or Spanish authori-
ties, and, since our administration was SO fierce
for an outbreak, it should have made its per-
emptory demand for the redress of some real out
rage and not an imaginary one. 1t acted feebly
and most ridiculously in sending forth its reaui-
sitions in bullying tone without waiting to
learn anything beyond the first and ca parte
statement of interested individuals Unoues-
tionably its peremptory demand, so hastily and
foolishly made for instant redress will be I'M
hesitatingly rejected, and then our Government
will be in a very beautiful situation indeed. It
Will not be able to retreat without exciting the
derlslon of the world, or to go forward without
exciting the world indignant denunciatien An
administration, to entitle itself and the country
to the respect of the nations, and, more than ali
to do what is right and just, should, in every
case OF alleged outrage upon American rights
take time and hear both sides and ascertain full
y all the material facts and then if it find that
an outrage has actually been committed, be reso-
lutte and infexible in its demand for the proper
redress.
