Although they have much leisure.

Of this poor fading world. sir;
' Knowledge they either try to get,

Till to the glove they’re liurl‘d, sir.
Some seem disposed to title alzout,
And take fair ladies with them out;

Beyond lllBll' tlii'_esliolil, as you know.
And live to sport unknown, sir.

CI-lAP'l'ER Vlll.
1. And it came to pass in the fourth year,
that the Locos met together in council, even
in the city of B-aliitnore.
2 They came tip in great nunibers, and
the Slluntl of their coining was as the roaring
of many waters.
3. And there c.-trot-. lO<_v;9ll'li".t‘ men of every
tongue and speech : l-lunki-rs and P.-.=irnburn-
ers. Free Snlers, Aboiitionists, and _liiterv.=r,.
tioriisls, Unionists, S+'t‘PSSlOl’ll.\lS and 'l‘ariHiti-s,
and with them also Rynders, the Hll.lli.t‘,‘,l}n(l
Mike V‘Val.~h, the Suliturraniean, who dwel-
lell'l in the slime pits of Sodom.
4. And they cummunotl one with another,
sayiiitz, let there be no division amongst us,
but what soul soever languislieth after the
loav.-s, let him he smiled in our liiidst, and
(l -.s ell in the tents of abundance.
5. And let us choose ourselves a captain
and a leailer, who shall lead us into high pla-
ces, even those which abound with veins of
silver and fine gold.
6. And into a latltl fl-living with mill; and
honey, where We may lay down in fatness,
and possess our souls in glai_lne-ss.
7'. And that saying plcasctl them greatly‘;
and they WtlJ_'¢__Z,'t"(llllt1ll' heads every man of
them, pod sat ilnwn.
8. Then tllei-e arose an ancient man, who
opened his mouth and said, Letil. be proclaim-
ed this (lay \‘ll'l(lll'l ye will serve, and auto
whom shall the gathering ofthe pimple be.
9. And there went forth a voice, as the
voice of hundreds, saying, ls there uni Lewis
of lVlichig'.in, a great man and vtise, who
more-.over hath been a man of war from his,
youth up P
10 Let us cleave therefore unto him, and
he shall rend the prey f.oin the iniglily, and
give the spoil unto us for an inheritance, and
a possession forever.
11. But Ol.l’lel'S'(".l'l:(l‘,, Nay, what portion
have we in Lewis Cass? for his sword is bro-
ken and the sccptre is departed from Mich-
igan ' ’
12 Bntthere is a young titan even Dong-
l:s, who is Vt'l‘y beautiful, so there is none
like him in all the earth, and the hearts of
the people yearn unto liiin.
13. For he sitteth near the market place,
and saycth onto each man, “ ‘Would that}
were it ruler in Israel, even for thy sake ;- for
my aff.-ciions goelh abroad, even unto the
love of strange fl'csh." ,
, 14. So his rn_o_uih is filled with promises,
and his hand lioldeth not back the wine cup;
for one,‘tw"o, yea three drinks and four, givelll‘
be to every man, for he is a -man ofprogress,
and SltJv_Pll] not in all his courses. .
15. I Then there‘ sprang forth a man in their
Imidsta man» of the West, It man of fierce
irounleuance, having his loins gittiabout with
bucl.sltitl, and whose meat was beats and
wild varinints. I .
16. And he cried aloud, Whoiis he that
speaketh of the wine cup, whose soul pantelh
for strong drink P Let him muster under the.
banner Ol the Chief Butler of Kentucky, and
wine shall he have, yen wine in flogons and
strong drink in barrels. '
17.’ L0, even now at the sound of his name
my S[i_lt‘;il.ll'lll5l€ll1 greatly; let us therefore,
adjourn‘ for a season.
18. Then spake ttiere a man from Maine.
saying, not so my brother, but let us do all
things soberly, and drink only the running
biook. .
19. But the man ofilie I/Vest cried out, is
thy séivzinta dng,th.~.the should dothisthiug?
So he turned and went aiiay in ii rage‘.
'20." And all the people followed after the
man oftbe West. ‘ _ _ ’
_ CHAPTER IX.
1. And in the process of time the’ mm re-
turned’, and sat again in council, even in the
gieaLSaiiliedt'itii in B.-ill.lHl0l‘e. '
2 Arid their eyes were ted, but not with
weeping; and they were filled, but not with
the spirit-of wisdom.
,3, _And the contention waxed great amongst
tbi-in, and they strove togetller many days.
4 Then there arose certain men of Vir-
Qltllli, who said, Let us gallie-rourselves unto
Bllcl‘t‘£lt‘lab., the 'l'-arifiitc, for be/is ii IIi1"u'l-:er
indeed, in whom there is great guile.
5. . His name is publi_sl'icd in many lands,
and lbefsouud then-of hatli reached unto our
cars, and none can say that we are setters forth
ofstrangc men. _
6 But others cried nay, for he was i-3359,]
in the tents ofwickedness, and bath blasphein-
ed against us in the liitigurige of Ashdmj',sn_.,-.
ing that he would let out the blood of the
Deinocr-.icy, even with a lancet.
_ 7_'. But the men ofVirginia clove unto him,
and a certain wise man among them said,
Why do ye murmur? And wherefore mulc.-3
yc known out reproach unto our ad vr:l'saiies?
8, As for that saying, let the memory
their-0l‘t‘Ul, 8n(l let. the blackness Of (.l£'.[‘l{[]t-33$
CUVi"l‘ it lOt€‘v'l.‘l'. A
9 VVot ye not, that as the strong man,
BVCII 3:501:00, lUlll’ll.l honey-, yr-I1, thg lmgcjous
honey comb, in the body of the dead lion , so,
also, my soul 3lllf'llt‘l.l] the savor ofsweet doc
trine ; yea snufiistli the odor of pure Democ.
racy,’ in the defunct carcass of Fcclerolisni.
10 But the others said these man be
drutilirfl with new vtiue; let us rather cleave
unto l\l~.irc-_v, who dispemeth spoils, and giv-
eth mutt; rijmcrit unto those who _follow at‘.
ter him.
11. 'l‘iit=.n replied unto them the men of
Virginia, As for this Marcy we have no in-
heritance in him; let him reinziin, like Asher,
by the sea shore, and dwell in his brooches
l2 But we will gather ourselves unto a
great and a wise man, even Dl(2lEet)S0l], and
him only will we follow: ,
13 For he hath troll in high places and
b;-cnsi-en alar iii" all men; for his goings
f-nib have been stately as the steppingsl of the
llt::—g0al of Syria, that browseth upon Mount
Glt.lP0ll.
14 Then Dicl.'cnson_bowed himself unto
the ground and cried unto them soyiu,t__r. Ob,
sirs_ live forever !—-now be it for in}; iime_
I pray you have me excused, since I serve
Lewis ofi‘v‘lit-higan, and him only do I serve.
15 And agiiiii spake unto those mm of
Virginia, saying, L) tllese many days have
wi-striven togi»thcr in vain com.-.-.-ntion. There
be giants in the land, but ye will none ofihein.
l6. Let us lll8rEfOI9,5C1rCll out some small
man, who.-e ways are unkuoun, so that the
uitllllhs of the guitisaycre shall be stopped.
17. Let us, therefore, asseinble ourselves
unto Pierce, for he is the smallest among ten
ll)()u~‘rititl atltl altogether puny.
18 For there is a path uliich the eagle
ltnowi.-lh not, and the wild goat llalll not
lound,'and therein Pierce, the son of New
Elaztipshii-c, walki-th; for he is a mock man,
and refuselli to sit upon a horse. ' _
19. And it shall come to pass, that. as Zo-at
was saved from the lllln of Sodom, because
it was the lens’. i.f-the Cllles of the plain, so
shall ll happen that when the wrath oflhe
people shall rain down letilpests upon the
great ones of our patty, and the‘, liglitniiig
shall run along the ground, that it shall spare
even Pierce, because he is a little one.
‘.20. Then stood up among them Rynders,
the Hittite, who v as captain among certain
men Of Br-llal, and Stiitl, Lewis I know, and
Douglas,l know ; but who is he?
21. Tlieii answered unto him :1 _man of
New I‘latnpshi.'c, s.=iyin;_>;, He is lll{ttE§llll‘allX‘l,‘
a pleasant child, for he speaketh but few
words and writes no letters, but be spelleth
wontlertully. ,
22. In his right hand he holdetb the loaves
and with the left he dispenselh the fishe.s,ii7en
places, and he is cunning to catch guzlgrmzs
23. Mui‘t30vel", htethren, he hztlh been
known to give aims, even one cent money
current with the merchant, unto it boy that
was a stranger unto him.
‘.24 Then exclaimed Ryntlcrs the Hittite,
the like thereof was never llealtl of in Israel,
and as my soul liveth, unless I see with my
own eyes, and feel with my own fingers, that
cent, even that red cent, l will not believe
though one rose fiom the dead.
25 But the others were a weary and hun-
gered for the loaves and the fishes, so they
liearkened to the men of Virginia, zrnd goth-‘
ered themselves unto Pierce of New Hamp-
shire. ..
26. And as for the rest of the doingsoftbe

the books of the A’]2ocr,i/p/23/? ,
27. Amt it came to pass, when Cass and
Douglas heard that Pierce had been chosen
captain of the Host, that they lifted up their
voices and wept; and the Whigs of the house
of Fillmore heard them. ‘ . - f

From Brussels you turn back over the
same road to -ii‘-iecltllrl, where we booked for
Aix-la-Cbape_lle, passing through many
tliriving towns, among which is Louvain,
w nch in the 14th century contained a popu-
lation of 140,000, though now it numbers
less tlian 30,000. London is reached in 530
minutes aftcrivards, where the trains run
down an inclined plain of nearly 500 feet in
a distance of two miles. They are con-
trolled by ropes and an immense stalionaiy
engine. Tlietwalls of the city are 7 miles
in circtimferenoe, but a great portion of the
area is occupied with gardens and vineyards.
The next itnportttnt tour en route, is Siege,
which from its t”3.'leli5lV€ lion Works", is call-
ed the Biriningham of Belgium. lt is beau.
lifully situated in the midst of a broad plain
girt about by mountains, at the junction of
the Meus-= and Ourthe. upon which steamers
li-ave daily for llolteulam. With the ex-
ception of a few hills and valleys at Lou-
vains, the entire route from Ostend to Siege,
is as level its ti prairie, although a perfect
garden in cultivation, so that as you ap-
proach the latter town you are all at once
precipitated upon one of the most beautiful
panoiatilic views itnagiiiablé, as you rush
down the inclined plain. 'l‘hejunc:it;ti of
lhe'rlvcl‘s —tbe broad and beau".it'ul plain, en-
circled by vine clad mountains, the domes,
ci1polns,ptilaces, and betiiililul vi-liite build-
ings, form a sight as delightful and pleasing,
as it is rapid and vivid. The manufsictories
consist almost wholly of forges and factories
for making fire-arms,~ and the occurreiices of
the last two or three ye-ats have so incmascd
the demanil for weapons of war, that wages
are so good, that it is said to be almost
possible to find a person idle. Every house
has its own smiih’s fire and anvil, and fe-
males, as well as riien are. engaged in the
one great avocation. God speed tl1e_ day
when the sword shall be turned into the
plowsiiare',and the spear into tli'c pruning
hoolt,an_d iiationslearn war no more. Next
comes Vcrviers, about sixteen miles from
Siege, and is a thiiving manufai-tu_ring town
—-the last station on the Belgium frontier,
and in the immediate vicinity of Spa, Chau-
fontaine, andotlier mineral spring localities.
Next we arrive at Aix-la-Chapelle on the
Prussian borders, a convenient resting point
in going from Osiend to Cologne, vvlrere of
course, you have to ‘stop for Passport arid
Baggage inspection‘. Historically this city
is associated with the power and. gra'nde_u‘r
of Chai‘leina"gne,. who‘ died there. Tho’

which a séitlletz powder has been ‘thrown.
There are but few public buildings -here to‘
interest the stranger. The" Catholic *Caihe.-
dial isprobably the most curious and historit
cally interesting of any. Here’ aid [hg
tombs of Charleniagne a_nd_rnany of [fig mg.
cessors, and the stone chair in which they
were ci"ov'vned.l Here it was that Napoleon
paid his-visit to the tomb of Frederick thd
Great. tn the Cathedral are also kept an
innumerable number of precious" bones and
relies, ol"vciy questionable authenticity it;
well as aniitoiny, which are said to be cite
hibited once in seven years, to Pilgrims who
flock in from I all parts of Europe to sea
them. From Aix, we departed for Cologne,
-at which city we §loon'arrived, having pass:
ed iliiougli one of the most. liigiily cultiva-
ted" portionsof the earth we had ever seen.
Even the space occupied in _England by
hedges and fences, is here appl‘opi‘ia.t,ed ta
grains, roots, or grass, and a’ lad, afglri, or it
dog,-stand as protecting scntinels to pre-
vent the incursions of animals, while a stone
set in the earth denotes the boundaries of
efltih man's fartrl. The staple products con-
Sisls principally of wheat, rye, oats, barley,
flax, hemp, beans, and poppies. In Prussia
we saw the first field of _Buckvl/heat which
has greeted out-eyes to remind us of om-
New England home, and the land o‘ cakes.
The l.l'lt‘gtt‘ipl1 wires also follow the line of
‘the railroad, from Osteud to Cologne, and
we believe there are lines .already in work;
ing order from Dublin to Constantinople;
and others rapidly being put. up. They diff-'
IE1‘ very little from our own, save that one
line, I notice, is placed about two feet from
the ground, and at the crossings is run un-’
(let in gutta percha tubes, The knobs med
are-of common crockery ware, and not of
glass, as on our own poles. We were una-
ble to discover what characters were used,
but an intelligent traveller informed us that
they were the same as those‘ used in Eng-“
l.&lll(l——1l sort of mixing up of the Bain and
Morse. One thing connected with railroads
will not escape the notice of the traveller in
any part of Europe, and that is the extrema
caution which is taken to prevent accidents.
Through Belgium, Prussia, Germany, and
France, a man is stationed at every half
mile along the mad, fof which half mile hd
is held accountable, and should there be any-‘
thing upon the track, or any imperfection
exist in the rails causing any accident, this
guard would be at once tried and condemned.-
At all road crossings no board hangs out
to warn the driver “Look out for the engine‘
v.-‘hen the bell rings,” but a gate‘ is put up
and closed three minutes before the trains are’
due and kept closed until they are passed.--1
The former mode of security would be too
severe a tax upon the finances of oilr compa-
nies to be generally adopted, owing to the‘
high price of labor, but the latter precaution
is certainly worthy of imitation in our own
country, and would no doubt be it saving of
money to the company in the long run, to‘
say nothing of the number of human live!"
now annually sacrificed at these diingéfolts
points. ‘ ~ -
