one occasion 4 number Of persons
were in his presence, and as the Co
vernon subsequently told me, they were
all mysteriously moved and burst into
tears. At Tabreez he was examined
as to his doctrines by high Mollah,
who pronounced him hereto and q
madman, and he was publicly beaten.
He was removed to Charee, where he
was secluded from the world as before.
Still he had communication by letter
with many persons of Influence in
various parts Of the country; and
strange as it may appear, his preten-
tensions were extensively acknowledge
ed. At Zengan, large town on the
road from Tabreez to the capital, his
disciples became numerous and pow err
ful, SO that last year they resisted some
of the measures of the Government,
which was hereby induced to take
decided step for the suppression of the
sect. Bah himself was removed to
Tabreez and shot in the public square,
with one of his principal adherents,
and troops wero sent to Zengan to
bring to terms the Babites there. Il
spirited resistance was made bv them.
They determined to die rather than re-
nounce their faith, or. yield to the
Government. Many of them made
their shrouds, and throwing them over
their necks, issued forth with sword in
hand, bent on victory or t:"n'h. Having
fortified themselves in strong part OF
the town, they heldsous against the
troops seven months, and killed
several hundred of them. and some of
the chief officers. a. last the head
o! the sect in the place, an energetic
and shrewd Moilah, was mortallv
wounded; and his disciples many having
been already killed, could resist no
longer. A hundred Of them were
taken prisoners, and thrust through
with the bayonet. None were left
who would venture to offer any resist
ance, and thus the sect there and else
where appears to be extinguished.
"l'send you specimens Of the papers
Bah wrote during his confinement at
Charee. 1t is said that several horse
loads of such papers were found afcr
his removal from that place. The
British Consul, resident at Tabreez,
having obtained "a number of them,
gave to me those I now forward. They
have been shown to Mollah here, who
is good Arabic scholar; but he is
lie to decipher them, or to extract
any meaning from them

In the present unsettled state of the

to assume control of the plantations near
the military lines, and order as follows:
lst. The planters after taking the oath
of allegiance, will assemble the freedmen
(atcly their s!~vcs) aud inform them that
they are free, and that henceforth thew
must depend upon their own exertions for
their support.
I'd. Equitable contracts in writing will
be made by the owners Of the land with
the freedmen Tor the cultivation Of the
land during the present year.
Payment will be madc in kind. and the

the landlord furnishing subsistence until
the crop is gathered.

Piled with, protection will be granted as

'Bab-A Curious History.

'Bab-A Curious History.
The reader will find some interest,
in the following curious history of An
Eastern pretender:
"Some eight or ten years ago a
man appeared in the South of Persia,
i'll the neighborhood of Shiraz, and
put forth pretcnsions that the only way
of access to God fof mankind was by
him; and accordingly he assumed the
nane of Bah, the Arabic term for door
He found some persons who soon &C
sSuowledged his pretensions. and who
became his adherenis. One Of his
doctrines was, that all men ought to
sub bject to him, and that consequently
hepower exercised by the Shah was
(. uaurpation. This was noised abroad,
ard reached the ears Of the king. He
was summoned to the capital, where he
was kept while, and then he was re
moved to Makoo. remote district, six
days Journey from this place, bordering
on Turkey. Here he was kept under
guard; bat such persons as desired to
see him were admitted to his presence,
and he was allowed to forward letters
to his friends, who had become some
what numerous in various parts of
Persia. lie was visited BY several per-
sons from Oroomiah, who became Ills
decided adherents. lie was in the
habit Of debating to a writer, what
he called Koran; and so rapidly did
the Arabic sentences flow from his
tongue, that many Of those who wit
messed it, thought that he must be
inspired. 1t was also reported that he
performed miracles, and multitudes
readily gave credit to the rumor. as it
was known that he was extremely
abstemious i'll his diet, and that he
spent most Of his time in prayer. You
probably know that most Mussulmans
believe that person may by absti
nence and prayer attain 50 high q
place in the favor Of God as to be
empowered to work miracles. Sub
sequently he was removed by order of
the Government to Charee, near Sal
mas, only two days journey from this
place. Here he was almost entirely
. secluded from the word, but continued
to write letters to his friends, who
handed them around as the produc-
tions OF an inspired person, though the
only evidence that | ever heard given
Of it was that they were unintelligible.
His disciples became still more numer.
Gus, and in some parts of the country
they engaged in angry controversy
with what was called .he orthodox
party, which led to conflict. In
Mazanderan some sixty persons, and
among them two princes, we're killed
inEa engagement. The matter became so
serious, that the Government issued an
order that he should be taken to
Tabreez and bastnadoed, and that his
disciples wherever found should be
fined and punished. % his way to
Tabreez he was brought to this place,
where he was treated with marked
attention by the Governor, and many

[ was spending the night in Freeport,
Illinois After breakfast l came into the
sitting room, where l net pleasant,
ohatty, good -humOred traveller, who, like
myself, was awaiting the morning train
from Galena. We conversed freely and
pleasantly upon several topics, until see
ing two ladies meet and kiss each other
on the street, the conversation turned
upon kissing, just about the time the
train was approaching
Come, said he, taking up his carpet
bag. ''since we are on so sweet subject,

will make proposition to you.
I'll agree to kiss the most beautiful
lady in the cars from Galena, you being
the Judge, if you win kiss the next pretti-
est, being the judge.
The proposition staggered me little,
and l could hardly tell whether he was IN
earnest or in fun: but as he would be as
deep in it as possibly could be, l agreed,
provided he would do the first kissing.
though my heart failed somewhat as 1
saw his black eyes sparkle with, daring.
Yes" said he, Il will try it first.
You take the back car and 60 in from
the front end, where you can see the faces
of the ladies, and stand by the one you
think the handsomest, and II come In
from behind and kiss her.
/ had hardly stepped inside the cars
when saw, at the first glance, one of the
loveliest women my eyes ever fell on--a
beautiful blonde, with auburn hair, and
bright sunny face, full of love and
sweetness, and as radiant as the morning.
ANY further search was totally unneces-
sary I Immediately took my stand in
the aisle of the car by her side. She was
| looking out of the window earnestly, as IT
expecting some one. The back door
of the car opened, and in stepped my ho-
tel friend. / pointed my finger silly at
her, never dreaming that he dare carry
out his pledge, and you may imagine
/ my horror and amazement when he step
ped up quickly and kissed her with rel
| ish that made my mouth water from end
to end. / Iexpected, of course, shrek
of terror, and then row generally, and
| knock down; but was astonlshed when l
saw her return the kisses with compound
interest. Quick as fash he turned to
me and said:
Now, sir, it is your turn, pointing to
hideously ugly, wrinkled old woman
| who sat in the seat behind.
You must excuse me l exclaimed,

A aREAr NATlRAl ruRI0aIfK.

Several of our citizens returned last
week frem visit to the Great Sunken
Lake, situated in the Cascade mountains,
about seventy-five miles northeast from
Jacksonville, This lake rivals the IA
nous valley of Sinbad the Sailor. 1t is
thought to average two thousand feet down
to the water all around. The walls are
almost perpendicular, running down into
the water and leaving no beach. The
depth of the water is unknown, and its
surface is smooth and unruffled, as it lies
sofar below the surface of the mountain
that the air currents do not affect it. It's
length is estimated at twelve miles, and
its width at ten. There is an island in its
center having trees upon it. No living
man ever has, and probably ever viii, be
able to reach the waters edge. 1t lies ST.
lent, STILL and mysterious in the bosom
of the everlasting hills" like a huge
we'll scooped out by the giant genii Of the
mountains, in the unknown ages gone BY,
and around it the primeval forests watch

IF my wife is peevish, and displays more

moved as a monument, or cheat myself
into the belief that / am listening for the

What is a year? 'Tis but turn

'Tis but a step upon the road

What is a year? 'Tis but breath
From Times old nostrils blown,
As rushing onward o'er the earth,
We hear his weary moan.
'Tis like the bubble on the wave,

As transient as the mist of morn
Beneath the summers sun.
What is year2 'Tis but type

Then autumn with q tear,
Then comes old winter-death, and all

'Tis Autumn and the fading leaves
Sail slowly down upon the wind,
Leaving like Death when he bereaves,
The living germ of hope behind;
'Tis autumn, and the sun is dim,
His summer fire is nearly gone;
The breez walls out a mournful hymn,
And all the earth is sad and lone.
'Tis Autumn; over land and main
A veil of azure haze is thrown,
As if the parent heaven again
Had claimed our planet for its own
And the blue vestments of the sky
For garniture of glory given,
Till scarcely can the straining eye
Tell which IS earth or which is heaven

GrUARO AGA1NST HOGOA4C 1ANG O&AO41s
There is as much connection between
the words and the thoughts as there is
between the thoughts and the actions.
The latter are not only the expressions of
the former, but they have power to re-
act upon the soul, and leave the strain of
their corruption there. A young man
who allows himself to use one vulgar or
profane word has not only shown that
there is foul spot upon his mind, but by
the utterance of that word he extends
that spot and inhames it till, by indul-
gence, it will pollute and ruin the whole
soul Be as careful of your words as of
your thoughts. IF you can control the
tongue that no improper words are pro-
nounced by it, you will soon be able, also,
to control the mind, and save that from
corruption. You extinguish the fire by
smothering it., or by preventing bad
thoughts bursting out into language
Never utter a word anywhere which you
would be ashamed to speak in the pres
ence of the most refined female, or the
most religious man, Try this practice a
little while, and you will soon have CON-
mand of Yourself
