The Olive and the Cedar

We have read with interest an ad-
lress of the distinguished Secretary of
State, Gen. Cass, delivered before the
Kalamaz 70 Agricultural Society. -
| Among the extracts we make are the
following: II e.s--...-.
Tine Mount of Olives, which over
l,oks Jerusalem. derives it's name from
these trees, existing therein the earliest
ages, and at it's foot, divided from it by
the brook Ce Iron, is the garden of Geth-
semane, forever memorable as the
scene of the passion Of our Saviour
Eight olive trees, bearing every mark
Of extreme age, are yet growing there;
and tradition has invested them with a
sacre | character, as cotemporaries OF
the life and death of Jesus Christ. No
believer in Christianity can gaze upon
them, as l have done, without the most
powerful emotions without feeling that
force of association which connects us
w. tn names and deeds, long since p ,ssed
away, when we stand upon the places
they have made immortal. The world
contains no such spot as this, where the
missi of the Releemer was fulfilled
and where he pronounced its termina-
ton in the emphatic declaraton 'Ir is

and you close his heart against that per-

Catholic to read the Bible in school,

can to make him hate, and his heart

some laws c,ncerning the L,rps day

The NewEnrynort Mass \ Ueral

The Newburyport Mass J Herald, a
prominent Republican paper, ex-
presses itself in the following style:
"All tr friends of the colore.l race will
adopt the motto, africa for the Afri-
acns.' Their present condition is that
of slavery and subjection all over the
land, nor dose it promise to be any bet
ter in the future. The only national
measures that will help them are the
suppression Of the slave trade; the re-

establishment of a line of ste .mers to
the African coast, that will carry pass

Profanity Rebuked.

The Rev. Samuel Wesley, rector of
Epworth, and father of the celebrated
John Wesley, once went into coffee
house, in Lonlon, for some refreshment.
There were several gentlemen in a box
at the other end of the room, one of
whom, an officer Of the guards, swore
dreadfully. The rector saw that he
coull not speak to him without much
difficulty; he therefore desired the wal
ter to give him a glass of water.
When it was brought: he said aloud,
Garry it to yon gentleman in the red
coat, and desire him to wash his mouth
after his OATH" The officer rose up in
a fury; but the gentlemen in the box
laid hold of him, one of them crying out,
"Nay, colonel, you gave the first Of
fence; you see the gentleman is clergy
man; you know it IS IN affront to swear
in his presence" The officer was thus
restrained, and Mr.. Wesley departed.
S,mc years after, being again in Lon
don, and walking in St. James Park, a
gentleman joined him, who, after some
conversation inquired if he recollec'ed
having seen him before. Mr.. Wesley
replied in the negative. The gen le-
man then recalled to his mind the scene
in the coffee house; and added: '.Sincc
that time, sir, / thank Gol, have
feared an oath; and, as have a per-
feet recollection Of you, I rejoiced at
seeing you, and could not refrain from
expressing my gratitude to God and to
you"

A gentleman who recently made a
pilgrimage to the Hermitage-that
shine so dear to all who cherish and
honor the memory of as brave man
and as pure patriot as our Republic
has ever produced-gives the suhjoined
interesting account of some Of the curl
osities which he there saw: ..
''Prominent among the curiosities
was wooden pitcher. 1t was of wool
from the elm tree under which William
Penn made the celebrated Indian trea
ty. The pitcher was made and pre-
sented by the coopcrs of Philadelphia
and, although it is not larger than a
common cream jug, it contains seven
hundred and fifty slaves. The hoops,
lii, and handle are of silver; the bottom
is magnifying glass, by looking
through which, one is enabled to see the
joints, which are not visible to the naked
eye

is noble cup-that is, two cups with
one bottom; so that when one is turned
up the other is turned down. It is, as
its name implies, cf hickory, and, what
is most singular about it, has natural
handle. 1t is simply black about one
foot in length. with both ends followed,
and was cut on Long Island from a
hickory, the parent stem of which was
severed by cannon ball, in the war Of
the Rev luton. ,.
'The next thing we will mention is
a calumet Of stone, presented by some
Indian chief; bayonet with a large
root grown rounl it, found near the bat
tle-ground below New Orleans; the cup
and saucer out of which General Wash

piece of candle, found in the tent OF

Miscellaneous.
is Sunday A LeagI Institution.

In pamphlet entitled ''The Bible
and Politics." by Rev. Dr.. Scott, of
San Francisco late pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church of New Orleans,
we find the following views. The DC
tor is reviewing the relation ofrcligious
institutions to the State, and takes up
the common notion, that Christianity is
part of the law of the land.
"Nor is there in our fundamental laws
syllable that recognizes our Christian
Sunday as religious day, and require
it to be kept as such because of its 'Di-
vine appointment If there is, have
never yet seen it. The Supreme
Court and Congress do not usually have
IL sederunt on the Lords day, nor is it
usual for them to sit on Christmas, on
the first Of January, or the fourth OF
July. But Acts of Congress on Sun
day morning are as valid, I presume, as
if passed on any other day. The G "
ernmcnt mails travel on Sunday. The
resting Of Congress and the intermission
of the usual course of business on the
Lords day is nowhere, that can find,
predicated upon the Divine appoint
n,emt of that day. Our fathers, by con-
tinuing the observance Of the Sabbath.
meant, without legislating on the sub
ject, to continue necessary and most
salutary practice, but they did not mean
organically to decide the controversy
between the Hebre s and Christians,
aud say that the first day Of the week
must be kept as Sabbath because of its
Divine appointment. A majority Of
them were christian men, and so be-
lieved; all of them found one days rest
OUT Of seven necessary to health and
mental vigor; but apprehend not one
Of item intended to affirm any religious
dogma concerning the Sabbath by con-
tinuing It's observance. And that is
the true view of the Constitution on the
subject, proven by the fact, that there
is nothing in the Constitution to pre-
vent Congress from adjourning every
Fridry night-and re-ascmbling every
Sunday morning-if a majority shall
wish to do 50. Nor is there anything
in the Constitution of the United States
prohibiting any State Legislature from
appointing Friday in the place Of Sun.
day. Now if our fundamental laws did
recognize the Divine appointment Of
the Christian Sabbath surely it could
not be true that any other day could be
constitutionally substituted. Let it be
distinctly understood that l. do myself
believe in the Divine authority Of the
Lords day as the Christian, Sabbath
and earnestly desire to see it KEEP. as a
d y Of holy rest and Divine worship
but I wish to see it SO kept from an en-.
| lightened consciencc; and out Of regard
for Gods laws, and not because Of mere
Legislative DEGREES.
.The end proposed by compulsory
legislation for the Sabbath is rather hin
dered than furtherel BY it. Men can
not be legislated into piety or sincere
virtue. This can only be done by tht
