One Man Left to tell the Truth,

1t is related of Latmer that when he once
preached before that tyrant Henry VIII, he
took plain, straightforward text, and in his
sermon assailed those very sins for which the
monarch was notorious and he was stnng to
the quick, for truth always finds o response in
the worst mans conscience He would not
bend beneath the authority of his God, and he
therefore sent for Latimer and said, "Your
life is in jeopardy, you do not recant all you
said to-daywhen you preach next Sunday
The trimming courtiers were all anxious to
know the consequence of this, and the chap
ell was crowded The venerable man took his
text, and, after pause, begun with solilo-
guy, thus:--Now, Hugh Latilner, bethink thee,
thou art in the presence of the earthly mon
ARCH thy life is in his hands, and if thou dost
not suit thyself 10 his fancics, he will bring
down thy gray hairs with blood to the grave
but Hugh Latimer, bethini1 thee-thou art in
the presence of the King of Ags and Lord
of lords who hath told thee, fear not them
that kill the body, and they can do no more;
but rather fear him who can kill bot body
and soul, and cast thee into hell forever-
Yea, / say Hugh Latimer,' fear Him. He
then went on, and not only repeated what he
had before advanced, but, If possible, enforced
it with greater emphasis. What was the CON
sequence? Henry sent for him, and said,
How burst thou insult thy monarch so?"--
Latimer replied, 4 thought if | were unfaith-
ful to my earthly king, how could serve the
king Of kingsg' The king embraced the good
old bishop, excaiming, "And is there yet one
man left who is bold and honest enoughto tell
me the truth?

AsIArIc MANNA.-A letter from Mr.. Har
dinge to Sir Roderic Muechison, describing
the appearance of large quantity of man
ma in July 1864, observed near Diarbekur,
Asia Minor, was published some time since
and created good deal Of controversy re-
gardng the nature of mamma. We believe,
however, that there can be very little doubt
that it is species of lichen, which, like
fungus, springs up in the course of single
night and thus gives rise to the notion that it
HAS fallen from the skies. q This mamma is
ground into -four and baked into bread, the
Turkish name of being 'Ku lert-bogh.dash,
which means wonder-corn, or grain, Though
used as bread, its, composition is remarkable;
for it contains more than IS per cent of OK
late of lime, and has about rs per cent of
amylaceous matter. This substance is evil
IDENTITY the mamma of the Hebrews, who gave
it the name of Man hu, which signifies
What is III? from the circumstance of sudden
appearance and their previous unfamiliarity
with il -, .sA.l,
