- 1t used to be told OF the eccen :
trc, John Randolph, that in con
sequence of his youthful appear
ance and feminine voice, when he
was first ed to Congress, his
appearance b a member ofthe col
lected sOisdom of the nation, caused
a good deal of snrprisegas no one
would suppose fton Ms personal
appearance, that John had attained
the constitutional age for a mem
b3r Of Congress. 1t happened one
day that a member who had been
a little ruiled at Randolph's sar-
casm, enquired contemptuously,
GLOW came you to occupy the seat
of a member in this honorable
body ?" where upon the inimitable
Randolph Strengthened himself up,
and with that whitening sarcasm
upon his countenance that pierced
through a man like a barbed arrow,
exclaimed in his shrill voice, $50
and ask my constituents how ]
came to be entitled to a seat on
this floor"

Night Scenes in the Bible.

Many OF the most affecting and impOr-
tant scenes described In the Bible. trans
pired under the splend0rs of oriental night.
SodOm and Egypt, B~eersheba and Babylon,
Carmel and GilbOa, Olivet and Emmaus,
Jerusalem and the sea OfGalilee, have each,
by night. been witnesses of the power and
glory of the OmnipOtent jehovah. :
The author Of "Night Scenes in the BIZ
ble," has followed the shadow Of night
across the landscape of divine revelation,
and grouped together The sacred scenes
which are made awful or impressive by
the mantle Of darkness.
He has succeeded in bringing to light
"new and beautiful gems from the mine OF
bible TRUTH" and has produced a delight
full volume. The leading clergymen Of
the country have, given 1t their most cor
dial approval as a charming and "in-
The style in which 1t is published excels
anything 1t has been our privilege to eX-
anime. The steel engravings by the first
artists OF the country are perfect ''gems OF
art :" We have space to describe but two
oftheM. The first Is The Night Watch
in Mount Seir." Beside one OF the noun
tain passes, with grand peaks towering,
crag upon crag, on either side, stands the
watch-tower. with its ~solitar, Waterman.
Just through the pass can be seen the
first bright streaks Of approaching dawn.
At the foot of the pass, wholly shaded by
the overhanging crags, a party OF. travel
ers IRE encamped. They cry out to the
Waterman: "Watchman, what Of the
night" and down through the pass comes
reverberating that cheering cry: THE
morning cOmeth." Again we pass on
down the ages to the time when the long
l0Oked-f0r morning had come, and the Son
of Righteousness had arisen with healing
In His beams. Before us is a lone noun
tain side, and q PROSTATE form kneeling on
Its uncushiOned rock. The pale noon
beams creep among the crags, Just reveal
ing their ~barrcnness, the stars shine dimly
overhead; a huge night-bird flaps his
wings and alone breaks the stiffness of the
midnight hour; but glory surrounds the
lOwly fOrm-it Is Jesus, for lit came to
pass In those days that He went out into a
mountain to pray, and continued all night
in prayer to God" 1t was a sublime scene,
and the representation before us tends to
awaken the most devOut reflections.
We love to dwell upon the scenes por-
trayed in these Illustrations; and we feel
that no u can fail to be benefited, both
by these truthful and impressive pictures,
and by the earnest words of the writer.
Let parents, who wish to have their chill
dren love the Word of God, and under
stand Its lessons of wisdom and love. secure
this volume, and give them free access to
its pages.
