Easter SUNDAY An Jerusalem.

scene was witnessed on Easter Sunday in the Eng
iish Church erected some ten or twelve years sine
on Mount Zion-a neat and commodous ediflce, ii
not elegant and sumptuous the cost of which wa
about $4,000; and in the laying of those founds
tnns the workmen were obliged TO dig full fort
feet before they reached the bottom of the ruins
which overthrow after overthrow had been heapirg
up for ages. 1t was highly exciting says the cor
respondent, 70 worship Mount ZION. and in :;

pie stood if not of the Temple itself. Delightful,
was it to listen to the true Gospel sermon, on III,
resurrection of the Saviour of men, from Bishol
Cobalt, on the resurrection morning, whose larg
Christian charity, childlke simplicity, and patient
labor under extreme encouragement, make him :
worthy successor of the apostles.
"H icas the morning Of the resurrection near by
the hill on which the Redeemer suffered, the toni
in which he lay, the garden in which he prayed

he assembled In such presence the stones on,
