THE UNWRITTEN WORD,
Night Scenes in the Bible.

Many OF the most affecting and impor-
tant scenes Described in the Bible. trans
pircd under the splcndors Oforiental night.
SodOm and Egypt. Bcerslleha and Babylon,
Carmel and GilbOa. Olivet and Emmails,
Jerusalem and the sea ofGalilee, have each.
by night. been witnesses of the power and
glory of the omnipotcnt Jehovah.
The author of Might 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 Il delight
full volume The leading clergymen of
the country have given it their most cor
dial approval us a "charming" and ''in-
strictive" work.
The style in which it is published eXcels
anything it has been our privilege to ex-
anime. The steel engravlngs by the first
artists of the country are perfect gems OF
art. " We have space to describe but two
of them. The first is THE Night Watch
in Mount SER" Beside one of the noun
crag upon crag. on either side, stands the
"bb'll-toN u. Ilh ltS SolildlJ "tttliilths
just through the pass can he seen the
first bright strcaks Of approaching dawn.
At the foot Of the pass, wholly shaded by
the overhanging cragS. a party of travel
ers are cncampcd They cry out to the
Waterman: "Watchman, what of the
night and down through the pass comes
rcvcrberating that cheering cry: The
morning cometh." Again we pass on
down the ages to the time when the long
looked-fnr morning had come and the Son
of righteousness had arisen with healing
in His beams. Before US is Il lone noun
tain side. and a PROSTATE form kneeling on
its uncuslioned rock. The pale noon
beams creep among the crags. just reveal
ing their b%arrennrss, the stars shine dimly
overhead: "A huge nigllt-bird flaps his
wings and alone breaks the stiffness of the
midnight hour; but glory surrounds the
lOwly iorn-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 deyout reflections.
We love to dwell upon the scenes por-
trayed in these illustrations; and We feel
that no one 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
drcn 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.

New-York tribune., 1871-07-28

A correspondent makes new point against
the law providing for an examination of drug
gisis and druggists assistants He calls atten
ton to the fact that. under an old law, grad
uates of the Now-YOrll College of Pharmacy,
and all other regular schools are granted tho
right of practiCing, TO the exclusion of all
other persons If this law be unrepeaed it is
held TO bo unjust that those whom its pro-
visions were intended to benefit should be COM
PEELED to pass a new examination and pay a
large fee for a new certificate We Dc not SEQ
that the new law is specially Inconsistent with
the old one; though some of its provisions do
work hardship to graduates of the NewYork
College of Pharmacy. But certainly. these are
minor considerations, compared with the abSo-
lutte necessity of some enactment TO protect
the people against ignorant druggists and their
assistants. Meanwhile, the druggists, who
maintain that the law is only device TO pro-
vide for Tammany officials, have held "a meet
ing and have unwisely resolved TO pay no at
tention to the Board of Examiners, but wait
for a repeal of the obnoxious statute by the
next Legislature.

TOUI HITTING.

OF all quarrels, squabbles about religion are
the most offensive in the eyes of civilized men.
Witness the one which is attracting attention
in the literary world just now, from the fact
that Hawthorne, whose name is guarded with
so tender care by his cOuntrymen, has been
dragged into it. His publisher, i'll series of
pleasant, gOssiping papers, lately adverted to
the great poets dislike to regular church
services, adding that "his religion was so deep
"and broad that he could not bear to he
"fastcned in by a pew door," and that he
"liked to wander among the graves; liked bet
4" ter to meet the sexton than the rector"
Some writer of orthodox views finds lii This
matter for horror and Indignation apparently
quite beyond his control. He assures us that
"Mr. Hawthorne" could possibly have found
his social and intellectual equal in any pulpit
and that if it be true that he liked the sex
tons society better than the rectOr's, his re-
ligion, whatever it was, was not Christianity /;
concluding with fine delicacy of sarcasm by
asserting that "when a man gets so bOated
with religion that a pew Is too small for
chin, it is time he were passed over to the
"hands of the sexton whose society is so sweet
"to him." The point of the matter is, how
ever that not content with this criticism OH
his text, this expOunder of the "sweet and
gentle charities of Christianity" flies out of
his way to attack virulently the religious faith
of half dozen men, living and dead, who
have had nothing whatever to do with the
question, and assures us of his belief in the
absolute incompetency of the aforesaid pub
Usher to speak of Christianity in any fOIm,
and III his contempt for it.
Now, with the merits of this question we
have nothing to do. In Hawthorne's work
which he gave to the world there is no line
incompatible with the highest religious faith.
There our and the worlds business with him
ceases. AS to what was his religion, or what
hope he had beyond the grave, is matter
that concerned his own soul and his God, and
them alone. Equally is this true, we would
suggest of the men SO recklessly attacked by
this vehement defender of the faith, upon no
basis of reason, apparently, other than the
fact that, as naturalists, scholars, ana meta
physicians, they have suffered the bent OF
their natures to lead them iuto habits diiier-
ing from that of commonplace men, and that,
their ways not being his ways, he cannot COM
prchend them. In all earnestness, we ask, do
attacks like these, which are becoming but too
common under the cover of religious zeal, be-
fit the courtesy of gentlemen, to say nothing
of the charity of Chrstiansf What right has
any anonymous scribbler to denounce publicly
another man as infidel or atheist, without one
word of proof to sustain his assertiOnf Is it
