Forty Days In Jerusale m


In consequence Of the bad weather the
Lecture delivered by Mr.. Williams at the
Unitarian Church did not attr act very
large audience. Those who were present,
however, were amply repaid for their har
dIhood IN facing the weather, by most
interesting and instructive lecture in
which Mr.. Williams presented in graphic
and animated style his observations and
experience in the Holy Land. Many
curioslues, gathered in his travels, were
exhibited, and the costumes OF tho ladie 8
OF the East were presented in tttfsaa Il
rant before the audience.
We trust that Mr. Williams will deliver
another lecture before be leaves. and we
doubt not, If the weather is favorable, he
will have a crowded house.

Notwithstanding the intense heat OF
the weather, there was an immense gath
ering Of citizens this afternoon. at Union
Square, one fully equal to THAT Of April,
OF last year, just after the fall Of Sumter.
Five stands for speakers were provided,
and the several officers were: Mayor OPP
dyke; Morrill,, President of the Chamber
OF Commerce; Hamilton Fish and Prof.
Fsncis. Among the many speakers
we're Rev. DR.. Rufus w. Clark, Richard
8. Storms and F. vinton, and the Presi-
dents of the several meetings. All the
speakers were in favor Of upholding the
Government in ell its war measures, until
the last armed rebel had surrendered. -
The enthusiasm among the masses was
very strong, and illusions Of the Presi-
dent to any of the Generals in the field
we're yociferously cheered, as were also III
dsprecatory illusions to foreign interfer-
ence in our troubles.

lying idly in her lap, and her eyes fixed
on the hazy August hills: Beautiful eyes
they were--soft; large and intensely black,
fringed with dark lashes that almost
sbadowed her cheek. There was some
thihg Eastern in the style Of Ellice Mays

rose, the small, scarlet mouth, and the
serene, straight features. As for the little

A REMARKABLE PROPHECY

One Of the most striking instances q
the fuI6llmenrit Of Prophecy. says the Bos-
ton Christian Advertiser, was pointed oat
t0 lis lately by an eminent Baptist divine.
1t occurs in the sth, ioth. and e1st verses
of Haggai, chapter iv.
behold, there shall be rebellion ii 4
the South, rebellion of strong men and
Earchers, Of charlbts and bright shields !;
and the Blast of the trumpet shall awaken
the land. and the nations shall be aston
ished thereat.
knd 10, behold, because Of the sin Of
| the South. her mighty men shall be as
babes, her gates shall be destroyed uster1
ly, saith the Lord, yea utterly destroyed
shall be her gates, and, her rice fields shall
be wasted and her slaves set free.
And behold, great shins from the North
shall deTour ber pride, aud i STORM from
the West shall lay waste her habitatious.
Yea, saith the Lord, and her dominica
Eshall be broken.''

saw her last night at party.
{The elegant party at Mead's,)
And looking remark ably hearty
For widow SO young in her weeds;
Yet know she was suffering sorrow
Too deep for the tongue to express,
Or why had she chosen to borrow
SO iiuch from tie isnguage 1t dressa
Her shawl was as sable as night,
And her gloves were as dark as her shawl
And her jewels, that flashed in the light,
Were black as funeral pall
Her robe had the hue Of the rest.
tHow nicely it fitted her shape y
And the grief that was heaving her breast
Boiled over in pillows of crapel
What tears of vicarious woe,
That else might have sullied her face,
Were kiiialy permitted to flow
In ripples of ebony lace!
While even her fan, in its play;
Had quite lugubrious sccpej
And seemed to be waving away
The ghost Of the angel of Hopei
Yet rich, as the robes of a queen
Was the sombre apparel she wore;
Pm certain l never had seen
Such sumptuous sorrow before;
And 1 couldn't help thinking the beauty,
In mourning the loved and the lost,
Was doing her conjugal duty
Altogether regardless of cost.
One surely would say devotion
Performed at so vast an expense,
Betrayed an excess Of emotion
That was really Sc sohiethng immense;
And yet as viewed, at my leisure,
Those tokens Of tender regard,
l thought: It is scarce without measure
The SORROW that goes by the yards
All grief is curious passion;
And yours-1 am sorely afraid,
The very next phase of the fashion
Will find it beginning to fsde;
Though dark are the shadows Of grief,
The inorning will FOLLOW the nj ght-
Half tints will betoken relief,
Till joy shall be symboled in white
All. we'll it were idle to quarrel
With Fashion, or aught she may do;
And SO l conclude with a moral
And mttaphor-warranted new:
When Measles come handsomely out
The patieht is safest, they say
And the Sorrow is mildest. no doubt,
That works in similar way

It took months Of stubborn, criminal. fatal

every element of strength save capacity TO
hoodwink our Commanding General, TO cure
us of that fond de.usion. Not till we had seen

1t fails, however to account for, or even 4
