An Arabian CITY.

The sun was yet two hours distance above The
western horizon, when we trod the narrow and wind
ing defle I'll we arrived at its further end. Hert
we found ourselves on the verge Of large plain
many miles in length and BREADTH and grt on every
side by high mountain rampant while right in from
Of u.s. at scarce quarter of hours march, lay the
town Of Haye surrounded by Notifications of about
twenty feet in height with bastion towers, some
round square, and large folding gates at inter
walls; il offered the same show Of Tefreshness, and
even Of something like irregular elegance that had
before struck US in the villages on our way. But
this a full grown town, and its area might read
lily hold three hundred thousand inhabitants more
were ts streets and houses close packed like those Of
Brussels OF Paris.
But the number OF citizens does not in fact e1-
coed twenty or twenty-five thousand, thanks TO the
many large gardens, open spaces, and even planta-
tiUns included within the outer walls while the im
mcnse palaces Of the monarch alone with the pleas
Ure grounds annexed occupies about One-tenth of
the entire CITY. Our attention was attracted by a
lofty tower, some seventy feet in height, Of recent
construction and oval ferm belonging to the royal
residence. The plain all around the town Is studied
with insulated houses and gardens the property Of
wealthy citizens or OF members of the kingly fam
lilies and the far Off skirts Of the plain appear
the groves belonging to Kafar, Adwah, and other
Villages, placed At the openings Of the mountain
gorges that conduct to the capital.
The town walls and buildings shone yellow in the
evening sun, and the whole prospect was one of
thriving security, delightful to view though want
ing in the peculiar luxurianco of vegetation offered
by the valley Of Djowf \ few Bedouin tents lay
clustered close by the ramparts and the great
Der Of hOrsemen, fOOtmen, camels, asses, peasants
townsmen, boys, women, and other like, all passing
TO and on their various avoCatiOns, gave cheerful
ness and animation to the scene-Lo1ldon Spectator

Joy UnSpeakable.

y what happiness what honour what glorie, what
peace what charitie; yea, what incompatible plen-
tie Of all things shall the gloriied saints noy there
Shall not that happiness be wonderfully excellent
there, where no evil can b. found, where no good
thing can be found wanting? Besides this, 0 my
sOule, knowest thou what stole thou shalt weare
in this inne of heaven-yea, with what a stole this
my bOdie shall be clothed there-O with what ear
nestne8s wouldst thou call for the comming Of Je-
su5 0 with what earnest desire wouldst thou long
for the comming Of Jesus yea, o what praises
wouldst thou sing to God thy Father, who hath
promised this inneto thee; TO God thy Saviour who
had cOnquished this inne to thee; to God the Holy
Ghost, who assures thee that this inle belongs to
thee Thou, Q my soule, in that inne Of heaven
shalt be richly and royalty decked with u threefold
stole; IL beautie in WORTH surprising all those
ornaments and Jewels rich Solomon was covered
with when be sat in his royal throne; with the stole
OF the perfect knowledge Of the blessed and glorious
IrInitie-Father, Some and Holy Ghost.
Yea, darest thou, o my soule, be grievcd, in that
night OF death to have this clay bodie conveyed to
that resting bed of the grave sweetly now perfum-
ed by the BURIAL of the sacred bode of thy gracious
Saviour, Jesus For, knowest thou not, when that
glorious bright shining morning Of judgement shall
approach, IN the which that mightie God thy Saw
our, whom the heavens do now containe, shall man
liest himself in glorie accompanied with thousands
OF His angels and Of the sound Of the last trumpet

Of thy bodio, but take it up againo and put it on
againe always not as men take up their garments
here in the morning after their rest in the night,
but tarTe otherwise; more comfortably, iOyfullv,
and probably, by thousand degrees; as men here
Icy aside their garments in the morning and taking
them up they go forth againe either to their won't
ed or to some knew labour. But l must tell thee,
o my soule, to thy great comfort, that thou shalt
take up this tabernacle Of thy bode in that shining
morning of Judgement III fare more excellent

4 Case Of Conscience.

Dr.. GrEy had lJr some time missed the hay from
his barn, and was satisfied that II was stolen With
a view 10 detect tle thief he took a dark lantern
and stationed himself near the place where he sup
posed he must pass. In due time, q person whom
he knew passed along into his barn and quickly
came out with as large a load Of hay as he could
carry Oh his back
The doctor, without saying word, followed the
thleI ana took the candle out Of his dark lantern
and stuck II into the hay upon his bsckaud then re-
treated, In q moment the hay was in light blaze
and the fellow, throwing II from him in bitter CON
sternation, ran away from his perishing BOOTY The
doctor sept the affair secret even from his own
family, and withis day OF two the thief caulo 10
him in great agitation, and told him that he wanted
10 confess 20 him grieyous sin; that he had been
tempted 10 steal some Of lis hay and, as he was
carrying it away the Almighty was Sc angry with
him that he had sent frs from heaven and set ii to
blazing upon his back. The doctor agreed 10 for
give him condition Of his never repeating the Of
fence.

THE KNOXVILLE WHIG.
Knoxville, Tenn, September 27, 1865.
The Earthquake in the West--RGmaTk-
able Phenomena.

The earthquake IN tn Mississippi Valley Oh the
18th ugtated the river violently in the vicinity Of
New Madrid. The water seemed TO rise in a body
several feet high, and was forced backward up
stream. The current was actually stopped during
the few seconds the earthquake continued. The
shock occurred little before nine O'Clock in the
morning and was also pereeptiblc IN the city OF
Memphis but only to those in houses, while those
10 the street scarcely noticed il. Tho occupants Of
the upper stories hastened down TO tzrG fTna with
frightened alacrity \ writer in the Memphis
Commercial Of the following day writes
Many personal incidents arc related all Of IN
teresi yet Of great similarity with the single ex-
ception Of the impressions derived a. 20 the dlreC-
ton Of the wave. In one office framed show
card, leaning against southern wall, was thrown
Horthward, and gentleman sitting at window
felt himself involuntarily inclined TO pitch out on
to the Sidewalk in another Office on Second street,
a piece of paper tackled over an opening on the
west filed and refed, ike q sail, if the atmos-
phere was affected by 3 force moving from west to
east In other places gas burners yibraed and loose
partitions swayed rapidly backward and forward
but usually In the direction which they would most
readily take upon any unusual CONFUSION Of The
earth.
IL is theUrizsd by some that the internal eApan-
sion or explosion Of gases or combustion OF lgneous
materials supposed 20 occasion eaTthq assumes
a 'wavy motion and straightforward direction; by
others that the oscillations are equal in force and
irregular in direction, giving to the she'll Of the
Garth and sublunary things in general rotary as
well az vibratory motion. But, without attempting
20 dip into the science Of these wonderful and fear
ful phenomena, we viii simply add that, on this oc
CasiOD, the city Of Memphis got pretty etlectUal
shaking up, though certainly not one at all equal 10
or deserts. We have heard of no serious damage
being done, with the exception Of several chlmneys
IN different parts of the city which lost their cen
tres Of gravity and fell with crash, while several
walls were cracked and a considerable amount Of
plaster dislodged from ceilings.
" This portion Of the Mississippi Valley has ex-
perenced similar shocks on several occasions before
tbs last occurring about two and half years ago;
but this exceeds all others in severity, unless as
some old citizens relate we should except the earth
quake Of 1913, and Of course the frightful cOnvul
sion Of 1871, so caamitous in its effects further up
the river, IN the vicinity of New Madrid. As %
the duration of the shocks experienced yesterday,
reports DO not entirely concur, but ii probably
not less than two minutes and 4 half from first TO
last

Kentucky Conference, Church South.

This Conference met on the 9Th inst, al the Scott
Street Church, Covington Bishop kavanaugh pre-
siding. Seventy men apparently better kept or
of greater intelligence rarely IN one body.
The presiding oeicer IS moye portly than when We
last saw him, and dark short hair, without any vis-
bic gray, bristles all over his head. Ho presides
with but moderate grRCefulRess ability, his evil
dent sympathies being With the Enloyal element Of
the Conference, which, however up to this writing
has by distinctly test votes been shown to be mi
nority.
The general business will be OF little Interest to
cur readers. but few discussions such that we
would have wished to transmit them to the entire
Church. On Thursday, memorials from George
town, Taylor-Street Newport andthe First Church,
Lexington, were presented, looking to a separation
from the Church South also certain letters address
ed 10 the presiding elder Of the Lexington district
notifying him that nine thousand cOlored members
had withdrawn themselves from the fellowship Of
that Church On this occasion q most spirited de-
bate arose, in which Aessrs. Dandy, Stevenson,
Bruce, and others bore noble part On Friday,
upon the question Of q Conference organ, q ike
scene occurred. The speech Of brother Dandy at
this time heroic, eloquent and Irresistible the
tactics Of brother Stevenson mastery and the poll
cy OF brother Harrison wise sh1ewd, and Chistian-
GRn-hke. The intensely Union part Of the Confer
ence opposed the adoption Of the paper proposed 10
be established st ST. Louis, or the suggested
desirable at Louisville. They did not wish war
with the Church North, but peace and prosperity,
and hence no organ at present.
Some Of the most important matters invoking
our national interest were referred b the Commit
tee on the State Of the Church among other things
the address Of the three Southern bishops and upon
the presentation Of the report Of this Committee
the great debate Of the session may be expected.
Il will be remembered that after the General
Conference Of 1874 this Conference scarcely adhered
to the Church South, and some Of lis members, for
their dsuntle5s loyalty deserve the lasting gratitude
Of 8 delivered country, while many Of them are
worthy Of or most loving Christian fellowship
They are tru and noble men. We have sometimes
felt that they could hardly fail 70 return 10 the
Methodist Episcopal Church, for they evidently
more IN harmony with Us than with their own
Church. We were glad 20 find our pulpits opened
10 them in Covington and Cincinnati. Not that
they arc by any means perfect, but they are in the
night way, and growing in grace, as We doubt not
they Will We shall one day shake hands together in
Complotest nity.-Ci1sislgt; Christian -f6r9cGts

The Attorneys Oath.

In the United States Circuit and District Courts
al Memphis, Judge Trigg presiding on the 6th inst
after the elapannelling Of the Jurors Henry Graft
Esq Of kortrech < Graft delivered an able argU-
ment on renewed Of a motion 70 allow certain at
torneys TO practice in tie Courts without taking the
attorneys oath prescribed by Congress and asking
the Court 10 pronounce said act unconstitutiona;
and void. He was followed by W. Y c. Humes.
Esq, Of Boston, Humes & Sect and J. B. Heiskell.
Esq, OF Heiskell & White tie latter making the
closing argument. On the IT. inst Judge Trigr
submitted his decisions admit ing all ATTORNEYS to
the bar without taking the oatl prescribed BY the
act Of Congress He Is Of the opinion that the only
mede by which al the lawyers # the court could
forfeit their right 10 practice afer they had once
been admitted would be the secession Of the State
of Tennessee from the Union, and this he was not
prepared TO admit had ever taken place; and the
only mode in which individual members Of the bar
could be declared would be the preferment of char
ges and trial Of each case separstely.- ShelbyrUe
