Tears for Souls.

The apostle Paul, in writing to the Ephe
sian elders, said, Remember that by the space
of three wears, ceased not to warn every one
of YOU, night and day, with tears
What an example ofminlstcrlal hdelity' ana
deep, tender earnestness tor immortal souls
and in this lay his power. Every one was
warned, not in the congregation alone, but
day and night, wherever he found dying
mortal, his theme to him was Christ; and tor
his soul he dropped the tea's of pity On
that we had his spirit, his fidelity, his tender
ness of feeling, and yearning desire tor tue
salvation of souls Then we might say with
him. For me to live is Christ This Is
what the pulpit wants in our day: unceaslns
fidelity, deep, ycarning, weeping desire tor
sinners We do not mean mere tears Oh sym
pathy, but tears for souls. This exhloltloi'
Of earnestness is the true coquenco OF the
nulpit. This We cannot get from books nor

ob.oincd in the closet. Personal religion
then, communion with God, is the main spring
of all our power in socia! life, and IN the pull
nit, We must feel as we'll as glory IN the
cross. The fount OF eloquence is IN the near,
and it is feeling which gives to woroS an"
thoughts their power. Yes, there Is power IN
tears ; when standing, as it were, amidst the
solemnitics of the Judgment bar, they are shed
in pity for souls and IL was thus intensity ol
earnest feeling that caused the world to say
Of Pau, that he was mad ,.

The orders for the evacuation of Fort
Sumter will be made out this week. General
Scott says the Fort is worth nothing TO the
United States, without the conquest of all
the harbor Notifications in the Port of
Charleston are determined upon, and that it
would require six months TO prepare an army
and feet adequate for this purpose.
The Charleston Courier states that the
batteries bearing on the ship channel are Of
the heaviest kind, and are now in high
state OF preparation and ready fer almost any
force. The Courier believes that the rein
iorcement of Fort Sumter Is impossible, aud
estimates that there arc three thousand
have disciplined troops in the various har-
Dor forts.
Adyices from Montgomery say that Presi-
dent Jefferson Davis has received most omi-
nous communications from Washington re-
spectlng the intentions Of the Administra-
ton relative to blockading the Southern Ports
and attempting TO collect the revenue. In
consequence Of these advices the Mont
gomery Cabinet is said to have resolved to
put $4,000 troops in motion for Washington
as soon as a single vessel is stopped outside
of Southern Port, believing that the peo-
pie Of the border States Will rally to assist
them.
After much hesitation Cassius NJ Clay
has accepted the mission 10 Spain.

The Southern Confederacy lays 0laim to
the territory of New Mexico. y Railroad
contractor has just petition9d the new
Southern government for a grant of land
there. Developments have recently been
made here which show the great extent Of
the plot of the secessionists against the
United States Government. The plans Of
the leaders were deliberately laid; and had
it not been for the immense Union vote cast
by the people of Virginia, Tennessee, and
Missouri, a much greater success would have
attended the project of dividing the COnfed-
eracy. 1t now appears that considerable
number of Washington officials not before
suspected, were deeply implicated in the
plot:
a rumor is in circulation here that Fort
Sumter was actually evacuated this NOR
ming. 1t is also announced here that Fort
Pickens has been relieved and is in condi-
ton to resist any attack that can be made
by the rebels.
The Senate still have a number of noml-
nations before them. All upon which 1t
will be necessary for them to pass will be
sent in within a week, when the extra ses-
sion Will close. The news Of the decision
the administration to evacuate Fort Sumter
forthwith creates considerable excitement.
aud some curiosity is exhibited to learn the
course the authorities Of the southern confe-
deracy will pursue.in this contingency.

A cast of the footprint Of man who was
suspected of having committed murder,
was made, in France recently, by carefully
heating the ground. protecting the foot-marks
from any disturbance meanwhile, and then
sprinkling the place with layer of stearine,
reduced to a impalpable powder, by dissolu-
ton in alcohol and sudden immersion in
cold water.
The powder obtained by the precipitation
Of this mixture, is SO light that its fall does
not change the position of grain of sand.
AS soon as It touched the hot ground, it mel
ted and disappeared. The soil was then Civ
en- time to cool, after which the imprint, fully
lmpregnated with stearine, was dug p. en-
tire, and cast made in ordinary way with
plaster Of Paris.
Such is the accuracy Of this process, that
1t not only reprOduces the general outline of
foot, or its covering, but every minute par
ticularity. If a bare foot, it shows the exact
shape of the sole, and the relative positions
of the toes if a boot or shoe. the amount
of wear sustained by the sole and heel, the
number of nails, etc. These seemingly insig-
nifcant circumstances are frequently Of the
greatest value to the ends OF Justice, and, in
some instances, are terrible proofs against
criminals who suppose that no evidence ex-
lists to convics them.

W hsHINGToN, 18TH.
SENATE.-Mr. Chandler of Mich. said the
Senator from Ky, yesterday made remar k
about blood letting, and called it his fChand
ier's doctrine. He was not the au thor oil
that doctrine. 1t was distinguished son of
Virginia and Kentucky, for the latter State
was then part of the former. He alluded to
Mr.. Jefferson. The doctrine of the ire
pressible conflict was illustrated in the his
tory OF Pharaoh and Moses, The Senator
from Ky. had argued in favor of abandoning
the forts and giving up all attempts to en-
force the laws, and said unless this was done,
Ky. would 90 out Of the Union. The Sena-
tors disunion platform had been repudiated
BY three millions of voters. The people had
rendered their verdict and the question can
not be re-opened.-He believed If the rattle
snake banner was raised in Kentucky it
would be hailed by but few supporters i"
that gallant State,
Mr.. Breckenridge explained that in his re-
marks he referred to the Senator's letter, in
which it was said that the Union was not
worth anything without blood-letting.' AS to
Jefferson s language, it was not applicable to
present affairs.
Mr. Simmons of R. 1. offered the following
substitute to Mr.. Douglas resolution.
Resoived. That the Committee on the Judiciary
be instructed to make the following inquiries
First, If any State or States, within the limits
Of the United States Of America, have changed or
modified their laws respecting the oath required to
be taken by members of the Legislature thereof,
to such an extent as to disqualify its members as
electors Of Senator of the United States, accord
ing to the provisions Of the Constitution.
Second, If any Senator now claiming TO be a
member OF the Senate, has been elected by the
Legislature of any State the members thereof be-
ing thus disqualified.
Third, What vacancies if any there are, in the
Senate, which the Executive Of any State has he
constitutional power to make temporary appoint
ment 70 fill; and that said committee report the
result of their inquiries to the Senate.
Mr., Simmons spoke in favor of his propo- |
sition and in reply to some remarks of Mr.. |
Clingman, saidhe was not disposed to force |
seeding States back lie presumed they
would be sick Of their experiment within |
year.
Mr.. Clipgman said "that remains to be
tested"
Mr.. Simmons said the country would set |

clans. lie had no idea that the Admin
contemplated an invasion of State |
rights any more than he did. This was get
ting to be well understood at the South, and |

THE MINUTE MEDICINE.

RADwAY's READY RELIEF conquers pain, ar
rests fever, subdues spasms, restores suspended
animation, and is the only stimulant in e1istance
that repels at the outset all attacks of disease af
fording time to prevent the return Of the paroxysm
by means of Railways Regulating Pills. The
great object Of primary medication is to meet the
first shock of disorder with powerful counter
working influence. and thus prevent prostration.
If thevtal power can be sustained until the cause
of sickness is removed by purgation Of the bowels,
and an equalization Of the circulation, cure is
certain. This grand object is accomplished by the
Ready Relief, which should therefore always be at
hand to meet emergencies.
RAILWAYS REGULATING PILLS empty the OBJ
structed bowels without pain, act specifically upon
the liver and at once purify and nourish the blood
and restore the equilibrium Of the circulation.
without risk of the afterconsequences of Calomei,
Blue Pill, Quinine, Potash, or Iron, they at once
expel all morbid matter from the system and re-
cruit its energies-acting as a purgative, altera-
tive and stomachic. In these effects vegetable
medication has its perfect triumph
