The Belfast Republican Journal has been
reading to the helligcrcnt Democratic papers
in this Stat lecture on good behavior. and
the necessity Of keeping in line. no matter
how much ground ami lofty tumblins is re-
qurcd tn DO it, The Journal talks about 1
'pusnacious press" and very coolly tells
thu Age, that 1.-The press cannot establish any
such piece OF secti)nIlsm," as the making
or asking the party in the State to have, a
platform Of principles of its own that few
men ut Washington cannot oyerturn when
ever they please, 1t is rather amusing t.
witness how easily a few, in defiance of the
principles established by the party in con-
vsntiun, can s.. up new tests and require
obedience u them, on pain Of expulsion from
the party, when thc,e few dictators happen
to live South Of Mls1n and Dxon's line, and
the new tests ask larger concessions to slave
interests and the demands Of our Southern
masters. And then to mark the difference
there is, when a person or a press that does
not happen to believe in the divine right of
the lew To govern the many, ventures to pro-
test in the name of outraged democracy. In
the first case. il is national to submit to any
and all new interpolations Of the party creed,
if Slavery is u be benefited thereby. In the
other, it is rank sectionalism The slaves on
rice plantations give to the owners Thereof

fainting-then, by sudden impulse,
roughly embraced her, and hurried from
the room.
Ere hereached the door, Harry caugh,
his hand, and pressed note of some value
into his palm; and, during the momentary
pause light step stole noiseessly down
the stairs, and fled quickly away.
When Harry Herbert reached home
with his sister and her son, his wife was
ready to receive them. There was a
dainty evening meal prepared, a bright
fire, and II perfect picture of home com
fort; and never, never had Csroline's
bloom seemed so beautiful, or her man
ners SO graceful, as when she warmly
welcomed Alice 10 her hearth, and en-
braced the boy with mothers tender
ness.
When, at late hour, they retired to
their own room, Caroline related to her
husband all her past doubts and fears,
sueing forgiveneness for suspectiug his
love. This was readily granted; and
although Alice and her child had cause to
bless the new law of divorce, feel quite
sure that Counsellor Herbert and bis wife
never will have occasion 10 apply it tc

Good accounts have been received from

Bulwer on the Destruction of Jerusa,


A few weeks ago Sir E. Bulwer Lytton
delivered lecture in Lincoln, which city
he has for number Of years represented
in Parliament, on the early history Of Eas-
tern nations. He gave an outline of the
history of the Babylonian, Assyrian, Per-
sian, Egyptian, Greek and Jewish nations,
and closed with the following powerful
and dramatic description of the destruction
ofJerusalem by Titus:
"Six years after the birth of our Lord,
Judea and Samaria became Roman pro-
vince, under subordinate governors, th'
most famous of,whom was Pontius PLATE.
These governors became SO oppressive
that the Jews broke out into rebellion; (;
and seventy years after Christ, Jerusalem
was finally besieged by Titus, afterwards
Emperor of Rome. No tragedy on the
stage has the same scenes Of appalling
terror as are to be found in the history Of
this siege. The city itself was rent BY
factions at the deadliest war with each
other--all the elements of civil hatred had
broke loose-the streets were slippery

Our city has suffered from another
destructive conHagation. At about
O'Clock last evening, the new frame
block built during the past summer on
the west side of Clarke street, between
Quincy and Jackson streets, was dis
covered to be on fire, and was entirely
consumed. The first story of the block
was occupied by stores, nine in number,
and the upper,was occupied by families,
ten in all. Most of the propert y in the
building was consumed, aud the total
loss cannot be less than 10000. The
building was erected ana owned by
