Judge Robert l.. Caruthers, the
veteran Jurist of Lebanon, IN an
able letter on the State debt says
"a rejection of this compromise
would be q declaration to the world
that Tennessee is not willing TO pay
one hall of the money borrowed TO
make the improvements that have
secured to her people and their
posterity such incalculable benefits.
Can any fair man think it honest to
retain and enjoy the benefits and
refuse the price-even one half OF
it2 This is the case plainly stated. "

B1mders of Painters on Sacred Subjects.

Both ancient and modern artists in
treating of the subject of Hagar and
Ishmael in the desert, have fallen into
singular error. 1t has been customary
to represent the latter as young child
OF eight or ten, or younger still. But
reference to the chapter preceding the
one in which the narrative occurs will
show the impossibility of this. Ishmael
was thirteen when the whole household
was circumcised, year before Isaac's
birth. The feast on the occasion of the
latteTs wedding, which led to the ban
ishment of the "bond woman and her
son." could not have taken place till two
years later still; in the East the weaving
of child is never earlier than this, and
often later. Taking the earliest possible
reckoning, therefore, Ishmael could not
have been less than sixteen at the time
he was sent away from home. And this
removes much of the impression of
harshness in the sentence which might
dwell on the mind of one who supposed
the banished son to be little child.
He was old enough to seek his fortune,
and also to make it probable that his
mockery of his younger brother was not
the mere needless sauciness of a child,
but ebullition of bitter hostility in an
ambitious and high-tempered youth,
determined most likely, to seize the
first opportunity of claiming what he
would regard as the right of seniority.
A mistake which pervades almost all
pictures, ancient or modern. in which
the Saviour is introduced, is to represent
Him with glory of light around His
head. There is hardly anything of which
we can be more certain than that no
such manifestation accompanied Him
during his ministry. The only time when
he permitted even a chosen few to have
a glimpse of "the King in His beauty"
behind the disguise of the Man of
Sorrows, was the TRANSPORTATION, when
for moment the three disciples could
look on Him as he really is-the veil
thrown back, and the excellent glory"
manifest. With regard to the minute
details of pictures, the old masters, from
their ignorance of Oriental customs and
dress, and also in many cases, of history,
have often set these at defiance in their
treatment of Scripture subjects both in
the Old and New Testament. But these
mistakes are generally more ludicrous
than mischievOus. Jacob in a four-pOst
bed, and Sarah in a quilted satin petit
coat, and the family of Cornelius in the
starched ruffs and stiff black dresses Of
a Dutch Burgomaster's wife and daugh-
ters, and Pilates soldiers playing cards
with their muskets beside them, may
call forth a smile, but cannot greatly
mislead modern spectators. The modern
painters, however, have, of late years
at least, taken most praiseworthy pains
to study Oriental costume, landscape,
and features, and consequently errors Of
this kind are much schooner met with.

The Clergyman and the Bear.

Rev. W. ]. Smith is a muscular Chris
tian who goes bear-shooting every fall
in California. In letter to The Pres51f-
terian Banner from Nisalia, be describes
one of his adventures on the last
evening in camp. He had walked toward
the river and reached the head Of
ravine, when he saw an enormous bear,
eight feet long and weighing 800 pounds,
lying IN the clover. The ministerial
NlmrOd crawled on hands and knees and
got within hundred yards of the bear;
an" then the rifle was aimed and ball
lodged IN Bruins fore shoulder. There
| IS a steep rocky gulch between them
second bullet was planted in the bear
shoulder and then third, until n
stopped, and roaring fearfully>s tore %
the ground in MS rage, sat down On lis
great launches, took -Ss5 ms, -Ihind loot
with his fore paxs;~and with his .tusk
tore it and gained it like a knife. He
hgsl-a-.sSSehed tie edge of the gulch, and
was clambering the last ledge Of rock to
descend. As he Strengthened up his
neck the sportsman aimed full at it and
gave him the fourth round. In mo-
ment, he 1ossened his clutch, and came
tumblng like young avalanche to the
bottom OF the gUlch, believing In the
agonies of death. "f thought" writes
the minister, "I had broken his neck,
and aftera while walked down near him,
but when within eight or ten feet, to my
utter CONSERVATION, I saw him rise to his
feet, and think Providence guided the
bullet that crashed through his brain,
and he dropped dead at my feet. Of
course it was trophy, but I do not
think care about being present when
there's another scrape like that a 6rltin,
where your bCllets aatten out like
waters, for it certainly was a bear escape
from a fate similar to that of the hood
lums in Elijah's day who cried, "Go up
thou bald Eead.'"

John Hall on RetributiOn.

When mother disregards the laws OF
health in the treatment of her little one.
no matter from what cause, she suffers
in the care, toll of nursing, and anxiety
regarding the child in whose system she
allowed to be laid the foundation of dis
ease. And it will not alter the case that
she did not know the laws she violated,
or did not think of them, or was so
placed that she could not pay to them
deserved respect. 1nexorable law is as
serted, and she is punished.
When a man eats or drinks what does
not conduce to the healthy nourishment
of the body, he suffers for it sooner or
later. Nor will it avert the penalties
that he can plead his ignorance of the
effects of his indulgence. The diseased
brain or disordered stomach vindicates
the dignity of law.
When lady deceives her husband in
the matter of expense, obtains goods on
credit when ne wishes to buy only with
cash, she endures the consequences
when the bills come at length, in the
Just displeasure of her husband, m the
loss of his confidence, and perhaps, later,
in the evil influence of her example on
her children. That she has excuses,
reasons of their own, and the like, will
not avert these sore evils.
When parents make the one son q
plaything, forget their obligations to
train and restrain him, indulge his every
whim, and foster every form of self in
him, in self-assertion, self-pleasing, self
will and self-indulgence, they reap as
they sowed in the young tyrant who
rules them before he is in his teens, and
breaks their hearts before he has at
tanned his majority. That they loved
him, or did not think of the future, or
had but the one, is no barrier to the
flood of misery. Men can see this prin-
ciple in operation on the narrow field Of
individual and family life-but they are
slow to notice it, and still more slow to
lay it to heart, for practical uses on the
broader field of social and national life.
When we allow an ignorant and vicious
population to grow up in the community,
we are punished by the example, the
contaminated atmosphere, the injuries
inflicted, the costly defences against the
evil, or the expensive machinery for de-
tecting and furnishing the criminals.
The school is cheaper and better than
the iail; the Sunday school and the
church are better than the police court,
Let us ignore the cheap and needtul
agency, and we must, in tardy self-de-
fence, provide the costly and imperfect
remedies for the consequences Of this
neglect,
