MOUNTAIN Tors.

1t was on the mountains of Ararat
that the ark rested with its precious
freight of human life and property that
escaped the greedy waters of the delugo.
Abraham, by divine direction, offered
up his well beloved son upon one of the
mountains in land OF Moriah, type of
the future sacrifice of Gods dear Son.
Moses, feeding the flock of his father
in-law, met the angel of the Lord upon
Mount Horeb, and received his COM
mission to deliver Israel from Egypt.
At Mount Sinai the Lord met the en-
ancipated Israelites, and gave them His
holy law. From the top Of Pisgah on
the heights of Nebo, the aged Moses
was given view of the promised land,
which he was not permitted to enter !;
and there he died in the land of Moab,
and was buried by no human hands,
but by God. Mounts Gerizim and
Ebal, in the land of Canaan, were noted
for the solemn proclamation OF the
blessings and curses of the law under
Joshua's direction. On Mount Gilboa,
the kipgly but God forsaken Saul fell.
David built his royal city on Mount
Zion, and made it sacred till Solomon
built the temple on Mount Moriah. On
Mount Carmel, Elijah made his famous
attempt to reform Israel; and from
thence his prayer of faith brought rain
after three and half years drought.
On Mount Horeb again the Lord ap-
peared to him in the still small voice"
and from another mount he called down
fire from heaven upon the two captains
of their fifties.
Upon mountain, Jesus uttered the
wonderful sermon whose influence has
throbbed through the ages. From u
mountain, He called His twelve apostles.
70 mountain He was wont to resort to
pray. On mountain in Galilee, as He
had appointed, He met His disciples af
ter His resurrection, and from the slope
of the Mount of Olives, He assembled in
to heaven in their sight.
Mountains have been the scene of
some of the grandest events of Scrip
ture history. Their isolation, their APP
parent nearness to heaven, the impress
siveness of their surroundings, and the
awe and reverence they are fitted to in
spire, make them peculiarly favorable
for the purposes for which they were
used. Not without reason, therefore,
did Jesus choose mountain on the oc-
casion of His TRANSPORTATION. Here,
lifted above the world, far from its tur-
moils and distractions, He would COM
mune alone with the Father; and in
this chosen solitude few favored wit
nesses should behold His glory.

LEGISLATORS ON THE MESSAGE.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3, 1873.
The average sentiment OF members OF Congress
on the Presidents Message, after conversng with
q number OF Senators and representatives may
be summed up as follows:-It meets but faint
praise as q state paper, and In many parts is
severely criticised Opening with what is regarded
o thny disguised lament over the fall OF
Jay Cooke ana the financial allies OF the
administration, a careful perusal discovers no
alluson whatever to the loss by death Of the Chief
Justice since the last meeting Of Congress- few
local and isolated victories for the Granpers in re-
cent elections are expanded into an extinction OF
party lines in politics, and the personal audience
granted by the Chinese Emperor to the foreign
Ministers at his court is given undue prominence
in the Message. The motley crew sent
to Vienna are dubbed as practical artisans
and SCIENTISTS against notorious facts to the
contrary. A brief and non-commttal paragraph
announcing the application OF President Baez for
protectorate over the Dominican Republic puts the
Samana Bay speculation before Congress. where
the parties In interest are left to do what they can
In carrying through their scneme. So far as the
Message reveals q state OF peace with all
the world but Spain IL meets with ap-
proval and the Presidents aostention from
compromising allusion TO affairs on our
Mexican frontier is received In the same
spirit, as IL also the proposition 10 denne ana limit
the citizenship rights OF Americans, who practi-
cally sever themselves from the country and Its
interests
The suggestion that Congress shall be limited in
its special sessions TO such matters are brought
forward by the Executive is not well received by
the members OF that body, but larger measure
OF acquescence is given to the proposition that the
President shall be armed with power TO veto OBJ
jectionaple parts OF bills presented for his ap-
proval.
The discontnuance OF extravsgant appropria.
tions for needless public buildings, and OF har-
Dor and river improvements not demanded by the
general interests OF commerce, Is admitted 10 be
good recommen endation but, as part OF the political
machinery OF the dominant party they are not
likely TO be permanently cradicated rom the legs-
lation OF Congress.
The best tpraised feature OF the whole document
IL the SOUND treatment OF the slavery question IN
Guoa; pnt regret is expressed by many that the
aocutnent becomes sadly mudGlcd IN attempting 10
ucnne anu explain the relations OF the CASINO Es-
Pamol to the supreme government at Madrid.

made against the Message that notnlng OF suCh
grave consequence should be presented 10 con-
gress and to the country in such form that does
not appear and claim TO be the result OF profound
study and competent advice.
II is also charged against the Message that. In
sraining after elastic currency, II loses sght oI
the evils OF nuctuation altogether, and that
whole train OF faacies follow the mistaken view
that circulating medium is wealth ITSELF and net
amere representative Of wealth, with silver deposed

Is received by the business men In Congress us u

The idea that the business or the country can ne

ridculed.

Objection Is taken to the Presidents Partially for
the erection OF special tribunals at washington TO
settle claims against the government when sale
and economical agencies already exist In the
federal district courts for the determination
OF all rights between the government and
It's creditors, and the proposition 70 estab-
lsh statutes OF limitation against private persons
who nave, or profess TO have, recamati0ns against
the government, is denounced In Interested cir
cles as q mild form OF reputation. The enormous
evil OF gigantic and fraudulent claims, settled and
resettled time and again, alleged TO spring from
the withholding Of jurisdiction from the courts over
such cases and the Capitalization OF the business
in the hands Of departmental onicers and the
Claims Committees Of Congress. All this leads to

Italian Opcra-Aida.


The third performance OF this work drew one Of
marked improvement over the previous represen-,
music also improves on acquaintance and at each
hearing new beauties revealed. Verdi has
completely discarded mere prettiness OF melody
in 1t, and exhibits dramatic grandeur
OF design unsurpassed by any modern Operatic
composer. The "reminiscences which are thckly
scattered through the opera, and which We
pointed out at the first representation, are not
plagiarisms by any means, for the treatment, in
strumental and otherwise, is original in every
sense of the word. "reminiscences in an opera
are not at all derogatory to a composers reputa-
tion when they are used with the consummate
skill that Signor Verdi exhibits. Portrait and
landscape painting in the most vivid musical colOrs,
from the barbarc splendor OF "L'Africaine" to
the septentrfona al gloom OF Robert" distinguishes
this truly great work. The vouptuous school OF
Italy loses none OF its charms when welded to the
asceticism OF Germany Verdi's later years reject
more lustre on his genius than all his efforts when
melody was spontaneous with him. The work
superficial kind that are transferred to bar
rel organs, put more valuable to mu-
slcan. The third act, with Its magnificent
portraiture Of love and passion s muscally speak
