A FABLE SUITABLE TO PRESENT AFFAIRS.
In former days, when the Belly and the
other parts of the body enjoyed the faculty
of speech, and had separate views and de-
signs of their own, each part, it seems, in
particular for himself, and in the name Of
the whole, took exceptions at the conduct
of the Belly, and were resolved to grant
him supplies no longer They said they
thought il very hard that he should lead an
idle good-for-nothing life, spending and
squandering away on his ungodly self all
the fruits Of their labor and that, in short,
they were resolved for the future to strike
off bis allowance, and let him shift for him
self as we'll as he could. The hands pro-
tested that they would not lift up finger
to keep him from starving; and the mouth
wished be might never speak again If he
took the least bit Of nourishment for him
as long as be lived "and," said the teeth,
"may we be rotted If we ever chew NOR
sci for him in the future" This solemn
league and covenant was kept as long as
anything of that kind can be kept, which
was until each of the rebel members pined
away to skin and bone, and could hold out
no longer. Then they found there was no
doing without the Belly, and that, as idle
and Insignificant as he seemed, he contrib
uted as much to the maintenance and wei
fare of the other parts as they did to his.
This fable was related by Menenius Agrip-
pa to the Romans, when they revolted
against their rulers. II is very easy to see
how the fable was applied; for If the branch
es and members of community refuse the
government that aid which its necessities
require, the whole must perish together.
Every mans enjoyment Of the products of
his own daily labor depends upon the gov
ernment being sustained in condition to
defend and secure him II.

rha 0rIrln Of london.

The antiquity OF the city Of London is un-
deniable. Il was q place of come note from
fbe date of the earlier historic periods. A
collection Of houses, not perhaps magnih-
cent. stood on the little bills above the
Thames. near Feet river, and on both banks
of Wallbrook, when the Romans, after in-
vading the island, forced their way through
Kent Into Surrey, and probably crossed In.
TO Middlesex. This town or village had
been the capital city of powerful British
prince, more than equivalent 70 any OF the
towns visited by DR.. Livingstone 10 bis re-
markable tour through the central regions
of Africa, and we trust that 1t was more
moral city than the metropolis of the King
of Dahomey. Our ancestors should have
more credit for civilization than is given to
them by the historians of their Invaders
Roman writer's we're not interested 10 pro-
ducine the character Of the nations whom
their soldiers conquered, in very bright col
ors. and their testimony should be carefully
investigated with the light of such inciden-
tai circumstances as writer lets out occa-
sionally without considering the results.
The BritOns who resisted the invasion OF the
Romans were numerous people, for they
could not otherwise have brought numer-
Gus armies in the field, or given their an
taQonists SO much trouble as these Romans
experienced 10 beating them. The natives
OF the islands then possessed good arms, but
the buckler. spear, and sword imply Ger,
tain degree of progress in the mechanical
arts. Chariots of war, formidably accon-
tered, were common among them, and the
existence of these implements infer work
men and their manufacture. Scythes for
their chariot-poles implied the erection OF
forges, and the training of blacksmiths and
cutters. Therefore, the BritOns of the Ro"
man period may have appeared barbarians
TO the polished Italians, but We need not
think of them as savages. precisely resem-
bling, In all but color. some Of DR.. Living
stones friends. We know that they had
mines and iron.works, and they must have
had artisans in wood, and they had some
agricultural knowledge. or they could not
have been supported in great numbers
London, in their time may have been
pleasant place and an important town.
