BEAUTIFUL ALLEeoRT.-Mr. Crittenden was
engaged in defending man who had been
indicted for a capital offence. After an elab-
orate and powerful defence, he closed his
effort by the following striking and beautiful
allegory:
"When God in his eternal counsel conceiv-
ed the thought of mans creation. He called
to Him the three ministers who wait con-
stanily upon the throne--Justice Truth and
Mercy-and thus addressed them: Shall we
make manY' Then said Justice, %, God make
him not, for he will trample upon thy laws
Truth made answer also; %, God make him
not for he will polute thy sanctuaries.' But
Mercy dropping upon her knees and looking
up through her tears, exclaimed %, God,
make him-T will watch over him with my
care through all the dark paths which he may
have to tread. Then God made man and
said to him, 20, man thou art the child of
Mercy; go and deal with thy brother
The jury when be finished, were in tears,
and against evidence, and what must have
been their own convictions brought !" :
