GREELY VS.. THE UNION LEAGUE" Ho-
race Greeley" said friend of his, /" is the
best under-dog in the worldl" Never was q
truer estimate of Mr.. Greeley's character,
and it is one which does him credit. He is
the g best under. dog" on all questions-a
stout, iron .jawed mastif, with grip that
will hang on to the uppermost assailant, and
never let 60 until the dog is dead" To
drop figure, Mr., Greeley is the best minor
ity fighter" the staunchest champion of an
opposition against some tyrannous and ag.
gressive power that can possibly be imagin-
ed. 1t is his pluck" as fighter against
odds which is the base of his reputation as
well as character. So long as somebody
is above, pounding at him, his cause, his
party, or his dogma, he returns blows with
interest, and combats a FOutranee. 1t IS
only when he is " let up"-when his oppo-
nents are "down'' and at his mercy-that
Horace Greeley is to be looked cut for. No
sooner does his antagonist give in, or appear
spent, then our champion drops his belliger,
ency, extends his hand, and offers kiss in,
stead of blow This may be mercy, mag
nanimity, forgiveness, or folly, if you choose,
hut it is characteristic of Greeley and it is
this precisely which makes the animus of the
present controversy ON Jefferson Davis and
bail bonds So says the New York Dis,

SEEING THE Sun AT MIDNIGHT.-Hon. J.
Ii. Cambell, U. S. Minister to Norway.
with party of American gentlemen, went
far enough North to see the sun at midnight.
1t was in SO degrees North latitude. as thew
ascended cliff 1000 feet high above the
Arctic sea. The scene is thus graphically
described
1t was late, but still sunlight. The Arc
tic Ocean stretched away in silent vastness
at our feet; the sound of its waves scarcely
reached our lookout; away in the North the
huge old sun swung low along the horizon,
like the slow beat of the pendulum in the
tall clock in our grandfather's paror corner.
We all stood silent, looking at our watches.
When both hands came together at u, mid.
night, the full round orb hung triumphantlv
above the wave-the bridge of gold running 2
due north spanned the waters between us
and him. There he shone in silent majesty,
which knew no setting. We involuntarily
took Oft our hats; no word was said. Com
bne, if you can, the most brilliant sunset
and sunrise you ever saw, and its beauties
will pale before the gorgeous c7loring which
now lit up ocean, heaven and mountain. In
half an hour the sun had swung up percept.
bly, on its beat, the colors changed to those
OF morning, fresh breeze rippled over the
flood, one songster after another piped up
in the grove behind us-we had slid into
another. day.

Siege of Acre by the Crusaders.

The siege Of Acre, during the third cru
sade, towards the twelfth century, is one of
the most memorable sieges recorded in his
tory. The place was invested by two thous-
and horse and thirty thousand foot. The
siege lasted two years and consumed in n
narrow space, the forces of Europe and
Asia. Never did the fame of enthusiasm
burn with fiercer and more destructive rage.
At the sound of the holy trumpet the Mos.
lens of Egypt, Syria, Arabia. and the
oriental provinces. assembled under the SER
want of the prophet; his camp was pitched
within few miles of Acre; and he labored
night and day for the relief of his brethern,
and the annoyance of the Franks
Nine battles not unworthy the name. we're
fought in the neighborhood of Mount Carmel,
with such vicisstude of fortune, that in one
attack the Sultan forced his way into the
city, and in one rally the Christians pene-
trated the royal tent. By means of divers
and pigeons, regular correspondence was
maintained with the besieged and as often
as the sea was left open, the exhausted gar
rison was withdrawn, and a fresh supply
was poured into the place. The Latin camp
was thinned by famine, the sword, and the
climate but the tents of the dead were re-
plenished with new pilgrims, who exagger-
ated the strength and speed of their approach
ing countrymen. The vulgar were astonish-
ed by the report that the Pope himself, with
an innumerable crusade, was advanced as
Tar as Constantinople. The march of the
emperor filled the East with more serious
alarms.
At length in the spring of the second
year, the royal fleets of France and England
cast anchor in the Bay of Acre, and the
siege was more vigorously prosecuted by the
youthful emulation of the two kings, Philip
Augustus, and, Richard l.. After every
resource had been tried, and every hope was
exhausted, the defenders of Acre submitted
to their fate a capitulation was granted,
but their lives and liberties were taxed at
the hard conditions of a ransom of two hun
dred thousand pieces of gold, the deliverance
of one hundred mobiles and fifteen hundred
inferior captives, and the restoration of the
wood of the holy cross. Some doubt in the
agreement. and some delay in the execution,
rekinded the fury of the Franks, and three
thousand MOslems, almost in the Sultan's
view, were beheaded by command of King
Richard
By the conquest Of Acre, the Latins ac-
Guired n strong town and a convenient har.
bor; but the advantage was most dearly
purchased. The minister and historian of
Saadin computes from the report of the
enemy that their numbers at different periods
amounted to five or six hundred thousand :;
that more than one hundred thousand Chris
tians we're slain; that a far greater number
was lost by disease or shpwrecked and
that but a small portion of this mighty host
could return in safety to their native coun
tries
