A BulIy's Fate.

The captain pulled face at this ar

The choice of pistols was drawn for by

Murder Of the Aamaiukes.

Mehemet Ali, from a common soldier
had come to be ruler of Egypt. Like
every man who ever rose to power, envy
hated him and treason plotted his over
throw. The Msmalukes were his mortal
foes, and he, with no such forgiving spirit
as led Rienzi to spare the barons when he
could have raised fallen Rome and placed
her upon the road to greatness, planned
their death ut one stroke. Filling his
towers with trusty soldiers, he invited the
Mamalukes to parade within the walls Of
the citadal. Unsuspectingly they march

gayly decorated warriors, whose very
steeds pranced with pride to he the bear

All save one, Emir Boy spurred on his
horse over the dead bodies of his fellow
soldiers, over the dying whose lifeblood
oozed away and ever the living suppl

knelt and prayed for mercy. Miracu-

Frederick was both blamed and ridiculed
on account Of this transaction, though he
never would consent to reverse the pro-

nephew, however, upon bis accession to

Age Of the Idea of He'll.

In the first place, it is necessary to
rise above that narrowness of view which
regards the doctrine of hell as espe-
cially a Christian doctrine, or as the
monopoly of any particular religion.
On the contrary, it is as ancient and
universal as the systems of religious
faith that have overspread the world.
The Oldest religions OF which we have
any Observation-Disclosures Egyptian, and
the various oriental systems of worship
all affirm the doctrine of future life,
with accompanying bells for the torture
of condemned souls. We certainly cam
not assume that all these systems are
true, and of divine origin but if not,
then the question forces itself upon us,
how they came by this belief The old,
historic religious systems involved adj
vanced and complicated creeds and
rituals, and if they were not real divine
revelations in this elaborated shape we
are compelled to regard them as having
had natural development out of lower
and cruder forms Of superstition. TO
explain these rehgions-as to explain the
earliest political Institutions must
go behind them. There is prehistoric,
rudimentary theology of the primitive
man, the quality of which has to be de-
duced from his low, infantine condition
of mind, interpreted by what we OBJ
serve among the inferior types of man
