Death Warrant of Jesus Christ
Of the many interesting relics and frag
ments of antiquity which have been brought
to light by persevering researches of modern
philosophers none could have been more in
teresting to the philanthrophist and believer
than the one we publish below. " Chance,"
says the Courier des Etats Unis, " has just
put into our hands the most imposing and
Interesting judicial document to all Chris
tians that has been recorded in human an
nals—that is, the identical death warrant of
our Lord Jesus Christ." The document was
faithfully transcribed by the editor, in these
words :
Sentence rendered by Pontius Pilate, acting
Governor of Lower Galilee, stating that
Jesus of Nazareth shall suffer death on the
cross.
In the year 17 of the Emperor Tiberius
Cesar, and the 27th day of March, the city
of the holy Jerusalem—Anna and Caiphas
being priests, sacrifiscators of the people of
God—Pontius Pilate, Governor of Lower
Galilee, sitting in the presidential chair of
the peertory condemn Jesus of Nazareth to
die on the cross between two thieves—the
notorious and great evidence of the people
saying:—
1. Jesus is a seducer.
2. He is seditious.
3. He is an enemy of the law.
4. He calls himself falsely the son of God.
5. He calls himself falsely the King of
Israel.
6. lle entered into the temple followed by
a multitude bearing palm branches in their
bands.
Orders the first centurion, Cuilius Corne
lius, to lead him to the place of execution.
Forbids any person whomsoever, either
poor or rich to oppose the death of Jesus
Christ.
The witnesses who signed the condemnation
of Jesus are—
1. Daniel llobania, a Pharisee.
'2. Soannus Rabani..
3. Rapas,l Rabani.
4. Cabot, a citizen.
Jesus shall go out of the city of Jerusalem
by the gate of Struenus.
The above sentence is engraved on a cop
per plate ; on one side are written these
words :—" .A. similar plate is sent to each
tribe."
It was found in an antique vase of white
marbe while excavating in the ancient city
of Aduilla, in the kingdom of Naples, in the
year 1810, and was discovered by the com
missioners•of arts of French armies. At the
expedition of the Naples it was enclosed in
a box of ebony, as the sacristy of the Char
ton. The French translation was made by
the Commissioner of Arts. The original is
in the Hebrew language.
Training of Girls
There are many persons in the world who
have a holy horror of what are termed " Tom
boys," and who still seem to entertain the
notion that young girls need no training, ex
cept that of mental faculties ; that their
forms are of less consequence than their
dresses; and that a development of physical
strength would impair their delicacy, and
tend to make them masculine. By restrict
ing their physical education and limiting
their sphere of activity, they are condemned
for life to enfeebled health, and an aimless,
idle existenca. Let such parents ponder the
truth embodied in the following remarks from
the Home Journal :
The "Tom boy" is an eager, earnest, im
pulsive, bright-eyed, glad-hearted, kind-soul
ed specimen of the genus feminoc. If her
laugh is a little too frequent, and tone a lit
tle too emphatic, we are willing to overlook
these for the sake of the true life and exul
tant vitality to which they are the " escape
valves ;" and indeed we rather like the high
pressure nature which must close off its su
perfluous " steam" in such ebullitions. The
glancing eye, the glowing cheek, the fresh,
balmy breath, the lithe and graceful play of
the limps, tell a tale of healthy and vigorous
physical development which is nature's best
beauty. The soul and the mind will be de
veloped also in due time, and we shall have
before us a woman, in the highest sense of
the term.
When the " Toni boy" has sprung up to a
healthful and vigorous womanhood, she will
be ready to take hold of the duties of life,
to become a worker in the great system of
humanity. She will not sit down and sigh
over "the work given her to do," to simper
nonsense, languish in ennui or fall sick at
heart—but she will ever be able to take up
her burden of duty. In her track there will
be sound philosophy, in her thoughts bold
ness and originality, in her heart heaven's
own purity, and the " world will be better
that she has lived in it." To her allotted
task she will bring health, vigor, energy and
spirits, and these will give her both the pow
er and the endurance, without which her life
must be, in some respects, a failure.
tar Webster had an anecdote of old Fath
er Searl, the minister of his boyhood, which
has never been in print, and which is too
good to be lost. It was customary to wear
buck-skin breeches in cold weather. On
Sunday morning in the autumn, Semi brought
his down from the garret ; but the wasps had
taken possession of it during the summer and
were having a nice time of it in them. By
dint of effort, ho got out the intruders and
dressed for meeting. But while reading the
scriptures to the congregation, he felt a dag
ger from one of the small wasted fellows, and
jumped around the pulpit slapping his thighs.
But the more he slapped and danced, the
more they stung. The people thought him
crazy, and they were in commotion as to what
to do, but he explained the matter by saying,
"Brethren, don't be alarmed ; the Word of
the Lord is in my mouth, but the Devil is in
my breeches 1" Webster always told it with
glee, to the ministers.
ADVISE TO PARENTS.—Many an unwise pa
rent labors hard, and lives sparingly all his
life, for the purpose of leaving enough to give
his children a start in the world, as it is cal
led. Setting a young man afloat with money
left him by his relatives is like tying blad
ders under the arms of one who cannot swim ;
ten chances to one he will lose his bladders
and go to the bottom. Teach him to swim,
and he will never need the bladders. Give
your child a sound education, and you have
done enough for him. See to it that his mor
als arc pure, his mind cultivated, and his
whole nature made subservient to the laws
which govern men, and you have given what
will be of more value than the wealth of the
Indies. To be thrown upon one's resources,
is to be cast into the very lap of fortune, for
our faculties then undergo a development and
display an energy, of which they were previ
ously unt.usce pti 1

TED FAMILY SEWING MACHINES.
..New Styles—Prices from $5O to $125. Extra
Charge of $5 for Hemmers.
495 Broadway,
7SO Chestnut street,
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they Hem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
scant by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sewing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence of the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROVER S.: DARER SEWING 'MACHINE COMPANY
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
T}STIMONIALS
"Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines in my
family for nearly a year and a-hall, I take pleasure in

which it is designed—Family Sewing."--iirs. Joshua
Leavitt, wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of N. Y. Indepen
dent.
"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in my ftunily for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."—Mrs. Elizabeth
Strickland, wife of Rec. Dr. Strickland, Editor (V' ~717 :
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of faultily sewing."—Nrs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a Gttovra & Baaaa Sewing Machine for
two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of tinn
ily sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have
been worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The
Machine is easily kept in order, and easily used.”--31rs.

"Your Sewing Machine has been in use in my family
the past two years. and the ladies request me to give you
their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as la
bor-saving qualities in the - performance of family and
household sewing."—Robert Boorman, New Tbrlc.
"For several months we have used Grover & Baker's
Sewing Machine, and have come to the conclusion that ev
ery lady who desires her sewing beautifully and quickly
done, would be most fortunate in possessing one of these
reliable and indefittigable 'iron needle-women,' whose com
bined qualities of beauty, strength and sunplicity, are in
valuable."—J, 11: Morris, daughterof Gcn. Geo. P. Morris,
Editor of the Home Journal.

American gentleman, now resident iu Sydney, New South
Wales. dated January 12, 185 S:
"I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewingdone with
one of Grover & Baker's Machines, and a sintge seam of that
has ontstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky hades, Lu
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever l'ulcaft's smithy.
Ile would denounce midnight Shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—Prfd. Xorth.
"I take pleasure in saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. After trying awl returnine- others. I have three of
them in operation in my dilferWit places, and, after four
years' trial, have no fault to tind."—.l". 11. Hammond, &n
