the earlier Pharsohs (eDcased in its ori.
ginal burial robes, and wonderfully perfect,

about eighteen or twenty months ago, in the
British Museum, and is justly considered
the most valuable Of all its archaeological
treasures. The lid of the coffin which con.

ANEoDoTE OF QUEEN VIoToR1A.-The
London correspondent of the Presbyterian
tells the following anecdote of the Queen
of England: .
Prince Albert was kind, prudent aud
affectionate husband. But his prospects
were on razor's edge at one time. About
year and half after their marriage, AL
bert became very fond of playing cards, and
stalking sums of money on the result. Vic,
toria demonstrated at his folly and prodi-
gality, in vain. At length, one day, when
a number of noblemer, hungry, and of the
genus land shark, had Prince Albert at a
table, Victoria sent police message for her
husband to come to her room. The Prince
paid no attention to the request. A more
urgent desire was answered-"Beg the
queen to excuse me short time, and I will
be there" A third time an officer came,
with-"The Queen of England requires the
presence of Prince Albert" Instantly he
hastened to obey For not subject, how
ever exalted his rank, dare disobey such a
summons, without being guilty of treason.
When her eldest son married, aud had
been several weeks on the continent, he
sent letter, saying that he expected to be
home in few days, and requested that he
might have room. She wrote back that
when she desired him to visit Windsor Pal
ace she would send for him. He, nor any
one else in the realm, dare not disobey such
an Injunction.

RICH MEMS SoNs-Henry Ward Beech
er, in sermon delivered at Plymouth
Church, last Sunday evening, produced the
following picture of rich mems sons:
Men seem ashamed of labor, and often,
you will find men who have made them
selves respected iu labor, have built up a
business and alnasscd fnrtnnc. who turn
to their sons and say: "You shall never
do as I did; you shall lead different life ;
you shall be spared all this" Oh, these
rich mems sons They aim to lead a life
of elegant leisure; and that is life of emas-
culated idleuess and aziness Like the
polyp that floats useless and nasty upon the
sea, all jelley, all Aabby, no muscle, no
bone-it shuts and opens, and opens and
shuts, and sucks in and squirts out again,
of no earthly account, Influence, or use.
Suoh are those poor fools. Their parents
toiled and grew strong, built up their frames
of iron and of bone; but denying all this
to their sons, they turn them upon the
world boneless, muscleless, simple grizzle,
and soft at that.

ish authorities, Christ would no longer vacil-
late; he would be forced into giving the
signal to the popnlace of Jerusalem, who
would then have risen unanimously, for the
double purpose of placing Christ at the
head of an insurrectiouary movement, and
of throwing off the Roman yoke. 1t was
spiritual blindness, combined with audacity
and not treaohery and perddy, which really
characterized Judas. On the first blush,
this view of the matter seems merely an
exercise of intellectual ingenuity, but the
argument, when examined in all its force,
and with the nuuerous collateral proofs ad-
duced by De Qincey, has great weight. 1t
will surprise many, and illustrate how fond
we are of projecting our own conceptions Of
things iVto the Scripture narrative, to be
told that this notion of Judas is not contra
dict.d in the Bible.

A GooD SUGGEsTIoN-Th Columbus
Enquirer has been requestet~.ss planter
to make public the suggestion of change
in plantation custom, which be thinks will
be found advantageous. 1t is that planters
should make the yearly terms of their su.
perintendents formerly called overseers)
commence on the first of December instead
of the first of January. This change, he
says, would secure on the plantations the
presence of the superintendents or overseers
during the Christmas holidays, when most
of the negroes are apt to be absent and
some of them out on plundering expeditions
1t would, moreover, enable the superinten'
dents to acquaint themselves with the ar
rangement of the plantations and tie ca.
paciass and dispositions of the laborers
before tHssfIst of January; and thus in
formed, theS<ssuld commence more un.

the everlasting exclusion of the remain

of mountainous country between
himself and the advance, of

what a debt of gratitude is due you
from your bleeding country and suffer

thing is loyalty, which thus enables the
prejudices and resentments of political
bushwhackers to control the ballot box,
and exclude from all privileges the
men whom they never dared to meet in
the battle. front, Good thing, IS this
spurious loyalty Who cannot shout
