have said about the country as to health,
fertility of soil, exemption from insects,
etc., in my letters and talks. These
men are delighted with their eXpe-

pie. Seeing they were so pleasantly
impressed with every thing, | told them
they had better 90 over to Starkyille;
so they, with the Messrs. Young, went
over, and saw grass to their hearts
content at the Jersey stock farm OF Col;

to their other favorable impressions the
full confidence that grass and thorough
bred stock can be raised.

themselves. A great many appear as
though they were worshipers of Israel's
God, when they are in truth servants of
Baal."
The Pharisee began to laugh hearth
ly, for he saw that the Samaritan had
recognized him, Notwithstanding he was
disguised in a Pharisee's dress. That
man was Caius, who was appointed by
Rufus to the post Of head spy and chief
executioner Of the country. Papus had
taught him, at the command Of Rufus,
all the forms of the Jewish religion, ac-
cording to the Pharasaic traditions. He
was an apt scholar, and has learned to
disguise himself SO perfectly as not to be
recognized even by his teacher, Papus,
until they had conversed for a long time.
He was now going on an errand for Ru-
fus to Bethar, in order to bring Rabbi
Elezer Hamodai to Caesarea. But Ru-
fus had commanded him to disguise him
self on his journey like Pharisee, so
that he might investigate and discover
the thoughts of the Jews; for Rufus had
given no credence to the reports of Pa
pus regarding the Jewish rebellion. Pa
pus well conjectured at once the object
Of his friends mission, and was glad that
the destructive seed, which he had cum
ningly sown in Rufus heart, had borne
fruit so quickly.

PAPUS AND RABBI AKIBA.

Caius and Papus, who knew each the
thoughts Of the other, walked together.
On their way they passed by bath
house, where thousands Of men focked
from all directions There were to be
found actors and slight-of-hand perform
ers from Greece. dancers and musicians
from Syria, magicians and necromancers
from India and Egypt, sorcerers and
charmers, who exhibited their wonder
full powers by encircling their loins with
venomous serpents, by playing with
winged scorpions, and by doing a great
many similar things to astonish and ter
rify the beholders. Here could be seen
the votaries of pleasure reclining under
tents made from branches of the date
tree, and covered with the leaves of the
vine, whilst they spent their time in
drinking fresh and cool water, narrating
to each other the cunning and lewd acts
they had committed within the last few
days, and laughing loudly. Here
could be seen the scribes and sages Of
Israel, the expounders Of the law and
the teachers of Yeshurun, walking to-
gether and disputing about, some intri-
cate points of religious law, conversing
in a subdued voice, but with the appear
ance of intense antagonism, and leading
all those who saw them to believe that
they hated each other, and that they
were abusing and insulting one another;
whilst they really were intimate friends,
united together in true brotherhood, and
their bond Of eternal love was only made
so much the stronger through their dis

THE FALL OF BETHAR.
A HISTORICAL ROMANCE ADAPTED FROM THE
HEBREW.
BY REV. DAVID STERN.
Nv
(Gontinued.)

Besides the spies that Rufus had sent
through the land, the Jews were divided
into different parties, who secretly hated
and covertly watched each other; and
though all these parties had united for
the purpose of freeing themselves from
Roman bondage, their objects in view
were extremely diverse. The Pharisees,
who strictly obeyed the teachings Of the
law, and observed every custom, tradi-
ton and usage, wanted to be free in Or
der to rebuild the temple, and to offer
sacrifices as in days of old The Zadu-
GEES who were utterly Indifferent to re-
ligion and piety, were anxious for liber-
ty in order that they might spend their
days in pleasures, and their years in
sensual delights, according to the teach
ings of the Greek philosopher, Epicuros,
whose followers are often called Epi-
cureans. The Essenes, whose lives were
consecrated to God, and who were holy
men like the ancient Sons of the Pro-
phets, desired to attain their freedom in
order that they might lead quiet lives
and be removed from worldly troubles,
so that they might enjoy the glory of
God, search into his great wisdom as
exhibited in his creations, and ascend
on the pinions of thought even as far as
the heavens, surmount the stars, and
feed on eternal bliss by comprehending
the mysteries of the heavenly angels and
and the holy Seraphim.
The Samaritans, or the Kuthim, were
desirous of gaining their independence
in order that they might rebuild their
sanctuary on Mount Gerisim, even as it
was in former years. All these fac
tions, though they strove for the same
thing-liberty-were not united in their
aims; they had no love for each other,
nor did they trust one another. None
of the other factions trusted the Sama-
ritans, for they were from time imme-
mortal known to be turncoats, selfish
and wavering in all their doings, like a
reed shaking in water.
The Samaritan paused in his words,
and his eyes turned hither and thither,
*The Samaritans were considered as Israelites
until it has been discovered that they Worshlped
the image of dove, Chulin, fol- q, and
parallel passages in the Talmud. The enactment
of their disfranchsement from the Jewish law
took place under Rabbi Mair, according to the
statement of the above passage.

when he saw tall and powerful man
coming towards him. That man walked
very hurriedly. The Samaritan looked
at him closely, and saw that he wore a
gaberdine, like one Of the Pharisees; on
his head he had large frontlets, and in
his hand he carried a prayer-book; his
lips moved as though he was praying,
but his voice could not be heard. Papus
saluted him with the words: Peace be
upon you" The other one gave him no
answer until he had finished his prayers,
when he said: Pardon me for not hav-
ing answered your salutation, but | was
praying to God, and our holy sages have
decreed that no one should speak dur
ing his prayers, even if serpent was to
bite him."*
Paupus looked at him sharply, and
said: ut is very rare to meet in this age
God-fearing man like you, who would
rather lose his life than violate the law
and interrupt his devotions; for the men
of this generation serve the God of glory
only with their mouths and lips, and for
a piece of silver they would deny Him
and His law. Many pretend to be as re-
l1igious as Abraham, who gladly offered
his only son as a sacrifice to God, whilst
in reality they are thorough sensualists
like Abimelech who fell in love with his
neighbor's wife,
The Pharisee heightened his face, and
replied in broken and trembling voice:
"Who is it that caused Judah to sin? Is
it not the Roman? And who is it that
corrupted the morals of Zion's children?
Is it not this barborous nation; the enc
my of our religion, and the destroyer of
our country?"
"Your words are true, replied Papus:
'the Romans implanted the germs Of
evil, wickedness and sin upon the hearts
of our nation. Through the teachings
of their belief, they mislead Gods ma
ton in the paths Of the god of wine
Bacchus), to initiate the idols Of mur
der and robbery MARS and Mercury,
and to walk in the footsteps of the god
dess of brutal sensuality (Venus). A
great many Of Israel's young men assem-
BILE daily in their theatres, they go to
witness the fights of animals, and are to
be seen in the baths whose very atmo-
sphere is that of lewdness. They imi-
tate the Romans in their dress, and like
them they build immense and luxurious
palaces for themselves
Il cannot believe" said the Pharisee;
II will not believe that they all go to
these impure places in order to enjoy
idolatrous pleasures. A great many of
them are actuated by the desire of see
ing things which are new to them, and
they want to listen to the conversation
Of the country's nobility, for something
may also be learned from them"
II think exactly as you do" replied
Papus. "A great many act so as to de-
ceive those who come in contact with
them, and keep their inner thoughts to

putes. Here were also to be seen male
and female slaves cruelty exposed by
their barborous owners to the heat of
the burning sun, whilst now and then
curses would escape from their lips in
strange and harsh tongue. But in all
this great mass of people that were in
and about this bath-house, there was
none who spoke about the state Of the
country, the political news of the day, or
of the latest events transpiring in the
land. There seemed to rest upon the
countenances of all these people, even
upon those who we're lively and joyful, a
cloud Of sorrow; and upon all that de-
lightful valley there lowered significant
silence and profound quiet, like the sill
ence Of volcano before it emits it's in
ternal fire flames, and like the calm that
rests upon fruitful land before it is
overturned by terrific and frightful
earthquake. The Roman aristocrats
walked hither and thither with pride and
haughtiness, treating every one who
passed by them with insult and con-
tempt; but at the same time their eyes
observed and watched the doings Of every
man, and their ears listened attentively
to the conversation Of every one, in order
that they might make full reports to
Rufus, the representative Of Caesar.
Caius continued walking on his way to
Bethar, but Papus took stand in the
midst of the vast assembly who were
gathered together around the bath-house,
and exclaimed in loud voice, like ven
der of perfumes: "Who would like to
buy delicious perfumery; musk from
Arabia, or frankincense from Syria, eth
er of roses, or oil Of almonds, balm or
ointment, mirah or oleander, essence of
violets or scented cinnamon, wonderful
herbs or enbalmed fingers, which will
raise the dead, gold needles or precious
stones, rings or earrings, fine towels and
sheets imported from Egypt, curtains
from Damascus, or anything else that is
precious and rare? Who is the person
that desires any of these valuable things?
Let him come here! Come near to me,
all of you, and you will buy for trife
whatever your heart may desire!''
From every side and corner many peo-
pie came to buy from this famous per-
fume vender, who was known to be in
fuential in the palaces of the rich and
the aristocracy, and who was reputed to
have the power of obtaining for man
all the favors he might want from all
the different religious sects, races and
nations. One man out of the vast
throng approached him, and said: Per
fume vender, have you in your immense
stock the elixir of life, which will bestow
eternal life upon him who drinks it?"

Humane Cure for Horse Collie.

Collie is one of the most fatal diseases horse
flesh is heir to. The symptoms ofcolic are readi-
ly detected. The animal scrapes with his fore
feet, kicks at the belly, and shifts about. turns
around, smells the floor, crouches, puts the nose
to the tanks, lies down, rolls, remains for time
GU the back, and bresthes heavily throughout.
But there is q ready and safe means of relief
and cure in every homestead in the land-a
means and method recently brought forward at
n meeting of the London Farmers Club, by
Mr.. Frederick Street, gentleman of great skill
and experience in the training and management
of horses. When horse shows the symptoms
of an attack of collie, apply at once, says Mr..
Street, horse cloth, wooden rug wruug out
of boiling water, to the belly and up the sides,
and cover with another couple Of cloths to re-
tain the heat. As they cool, renew the cloths
as often as needful. A large bran poultice, as
hot as can be borne, is equally effective, and
retains the heat longer.
