Tomb OF DAyID.-The mysteries of the
Tomb of David are at last revealed to the
christian world by an ingenious ruse of Miss
Barclay, for some years resident OF Jerusa-
lem This adventurous lady, after having
visited the harem enclosure at the risk of her
lite, determined to explore, in the disguise of
turkish lady, the very tomb Of the Prophet
Davd, for more than six centuries in the
jealous custody OF the Turks.
The blind Dervish who kept the entrance
to this sacred spot was deceived by the famil-
lar use OF the Arabic language, as well as the
assurance of her friend, in the person of a lib
eral minded and very beautiful Turkish girl
who initiated her as pilgrim from Constan-
. unople, came to perform her devotions at the
shnnes OF their lords and prophets, David
and Solomon. Her devotional feelings were
put TO a strong test on observing this devotee
OF Islam take the saturated wick from an
OIL lamp, and deliberately devour it as an
ACT OF relglous devotion. After her form of
prayer had ended, she raised the SPLENDID
sliken canopy overhanging the tumulus, con-
tanning the body of David, and there, in
royal state, was the veutable sarcophagus of
David, having its marble cover adorned with
the most beautiful festoons of cranes. the
emblem of Jewish architecture, and other
ancient devices, which she carefully Transfers

No traces of its ancient treasures, that

just as we anticipated We are already beginning
to feel in the Bond street investigation, the dlsas
trous effects of the Coroners dis mai laundering.
We pointed out last week, that the examination Of
Eckel had amounted TO nothing and tina. the chancs
Of elictiDg from him information which might have
been valuable, had been shamefuly neglected. We
are not s, al surprised to learn that, acting upon
the decision Of Judge Brady, be has now shut his
mouth altogether, and absolutely refuses to ans wer
the queries of the Coroner at all This may BE- q
perfectly proper course for him to pursue, and his
lawyers in sdvsiDg bin to adopt it have only OBJ
served the usual caution; but il is certainly little
sggraysting TO know that, under widely different
circumstances this person was upon the stand, that
he wss asked smost literally no hing and that he a.
most literally answered nothing This negligence Of
course excited the animsdyersion of the press and
one result Of that anmsdyersion has been undoub.-
edy to render suspected parties cautious. For
this, however the press cannc. be justly blamed.
The mischief was dsne long before it was made the
subject of comment; and the Coroner, by his most
unshiful obrrusion Of his theory, had already, to
all intents and purposes, put the whole Cunning
ham clique upon ito guard. II he had not con-
tented hmse with . single assumption, and no
officer has right TO do So in the first stages Of
INQUIRY, be might hsye elected information which
wou'd have pointed with the certainty OF mAthe
NAUTICAL demonstration to the assissiDs.

Our readers will remember ihst 10 his eulogy OF

SAVAGE INDUCED in veiy stupid aud indecOrous
comparison between Bru;us and the depar ed

scene in the Capitol Of Rome and the
feloDious assault in the Senate Cham
Der of the United States. This poor
stuff, which proved too strong even for the stom-
schs of some slave holder, was printed verbatim in
Tie Union. Our attention has been called 20 the
fact that it was not printed at all in the columns
Of The Daily Globe, but that this newspaper either
out of compassion for Savage or moved BY the
piteous entreaties of his friends tina. he might no.
be passed down as q vulgar black guard to future
generations, has suppressed the most offensive part
Of the oarmagnote aforesaid, and in so DOING has
made Mr.. Savage talk greater nonsense than he
was actually guilty Of. When Savage is reported
to have SAID, "HistOry records but one Thermo-
"pyla; there ought to have been another, aud that

whether he thinks that Mr.. Brooks should have

hum in the pilory of THE TRIBUNE, and call the
attention of all future commentators to the fact that
