This. this is UNIVERSAL FAME !“ Prom the German of Gauesen. Astonishing Accuracy of the Bible. An astonishing feature of the word of God is, notwithstanding the time at which its compositions were written,, and the multitude .of the-topics to which it alludes, there is not one physical error— not one assertion or allusion, disproved by the pro gress of modem science. None of those mistakes which the science of each succeeding age discovert ed in the books preceding; above all, none of those absurdities which modern astronomy indicates in such great numbers in the writings of the ancients —in their sacred codes—in their philosophy, and even in the finest pages of th.e fathers of the church —not one of these errors is to be found in any of our sacred books. Nothing there will ever contra dict that which, after so many ages, the investiga tion of the learned world have been able to reveal to us on the state of our globe, or on that of the heavens. Peruse with care/ our Scriptures from one end to the other, tofmd there such spots, and, whilst you apply yoiifselves to this examination, remember that it is a book which speaks of every thing, which describes nature, which recites its cre ation, which tells us of the water, of the atmos phere, of the mountains, of the animals, and oi the plants. It is a book which teaches us the first revolutions of the world ; and which also foretells its last. It recounts them in the circumstantial language of history, it extols them in thesublimest strains of poetry, and it chants them in the charms of glowing song. It is a book which is full of .oriental rapture, elevation, variety and boldness.— It is a book which speaks of the heavenly and in .visible world, whilst it-also speaks of theearth and things visible. It is a book which nearly fifty wri ters of every degree of cultivation, of every state, of every condition and living through the course of fifteen hundred years, have concurred to make. It is a.hopk which was written in the centre of Asia, in the sands of Arabia, in the deserts of Judea, in the court of the temple of the Jews, in the music; schools of the prophets of Bethel and Jericho, in the sumptuous palaces of Babylon,- and on the idolatrous banks of Chebar; and finally, in the centre of the Western civilization, in the midst of the Jews and of their ignorance, in the midst of polytheism and its sad philosophy. It is a book whose first writer had been forty years a pupil of the magicians of Egypt, in whose opinion the sun, the stars, and elements were endowed with intelli gence, re-acted on the elements, and governed the world by a perpetual illuvium. It is a book whose first writer preceded, by more than nine hundred years, the most ancient philosophers of ancient Greece and Asia—the Thalesa, and the Pythagora ses, the Zulucuses, the Xenophons, and the Confu ciuses. It is a book which carries its narrations even to the hierarchies ol angels—even to the most distant epochs of the future, and the glorious scenes of the last day. Well-, search among ita Co au thors', search among its GO books, its 1,1 SO chap ters, and its H I,7in verses, search*for only one of those thousand errors which the ancient and mod erns when they speak of the heuvensor of the earth—of their revolutions, of their ele ments ; search—but you will find none.

Take but a sniff at this essence anassthetical, Dropp’d upon a handkerchief, or bit of sponge, And on your eyelids’twill clap asealhermetical, And your senses in,a trance that instant plunge. Then you may be pinch’d and punctured, bump’d and thump’d, and whack’d about, Scotch’d,and scored,and lacerated,cauterised, and hack’d about; And though tender as a chick—a Sybarite for quea siness— Flay’d alive, unconcciouaof a feeling of uneasiness.

Let no. man write ray epitaph.” -*j ... Such was the noble and . patriotic language of thatmartyr to. Irish Liberty, Robert Emmet. In hirfast moments, he made a burning and eloquent before his God and the tyrannical “Lord” who sentenced him, which, to this day, causes the heart of every Irishman to beat'with indignation against that country which consigned ; him to an early grave. • Willing and proud to die for his country, and hi,s country only, he wished to leave behind him the only legacy he could leave—a repu tation for patriotism unstained with suspicion—-an untarnished name for love of country and that lib erty he sought so ardently to obtain for his breth ren. But knowing that no one who knew his motives could dare vindicate them then, he asked the silence of the world until after-ages could do him and his character justice. He desired his tomb to be unlettered with anything but his own humble name, until posterity could engrave thereon a tablet worthy of his memory. Fix your eye and mind for a moment upon Thomas Corwin. Can he say, in the language of the immortal. Emmett, “let no man dare, when I am dead, to charge me with dishonor?” Can he, when his head is white with the age of years, and his limbs tremble with the weight of many winters, claim to have led the life of a true patriot ? No! In after year's 1 , when the finger of scorn points to him as a Traitor to his country, and singles him out as one who ; declared to our soldiers in a foreign land, that he w’ould neither clothe nor feed them, he will feel that he is detested by all honorable and patriotic men. ‘ When he the solemn truth cast into the teeth of his children's children, that he denounced our brave volunteers as “ Robbers and Murderers, turn he will feel that ho credit of the true.patriot belongs to Aim. Can Corwin exclaim: “ let no man attaint my memory by believing that I could have engaged in any cause but that of my country?” Nqf If he did, one thousand voices would arise from .the pat riot graves, upon the bloody field of Buena Vista, to reprove him for. his treachery. The sand hills of Vera Cruz, the heights of Cerro Gordo, the bat tlements of Contreras w’ould answer: “Your mem ory' shall be attainted. You told the Mexicans to ‘welcome us with bloody hands to hospitable graveshalf The blame cjf our death rests upon your head.” Oh, we would not descend to the grave with the sin and treason of Tom Corwin upon our head for one-half the possessions -of the entire w'orld. We w'ould not for all the world, that our ancestors had so disgraced themselves and the land that gave them birth.. Should the tomb of Corwin be • unlettered ? Should his epitaph remain unwritten? No! Let his infamy be known to the country and the people," It is written already—written on the pages of his country’s history—written in the records of the United States Senate—written on 1 the minds of the American army and in the hearts of the American people. Upon the white marble of his tomb should be engraven: HEBE LIE THE UEMAINS • THOMAS CORWIN, A TRAITOR TO HIS COUNTRY. Tlic Frowning Scene in the Court Martial. The “frowning down” of Geii. Kearney by Col. Benton, in the Fremont Court Martial, was decided ly a rich affair. We say nothing of the success of Col. B. He says he succeeded—Gen. K. says he did not. But we speak of the “ attempt and not the deed,” when\vesay,itwas “decidedly rich,” but was not--.original. A scene in Pickwick, it has been suggested, furnished the hint. We quote as fol lows : ‘Sir,’ said Mr; Tupman, ‘you are a fellow.” « Sik,’ said Mr. Pickwick, * you are another.’ Mr.'-Tupman advanced a step or two, and glared at Mr; Pickwick. Mr. Pickwick returned the glare, the glare concentrated with a focus, by means of his spectacles, and breathed a bold defiance ! ‘ Sir,’ said Mr. Tupman, after a short pause, speak ing in a deep, low voice, ‘you have called me old.’ • ‘ 1 have,’ said Mr. Pickwick. r ‘And fat.’ ‘ I reiterate the charge.* ‘And a follow.’ . ‘ So you are !’• There was.a fearful pause. ‘ \ly attachment to your person,’ said Mr. Tup man, speaking in a voice tremulous with emotion, ‘is great, very great, but upon that person 1 must take summary vengeance.’ hut here was ''talking'’ as well us “looking," and the closing threat of Mr. Tupman is u feature which was not in the Court Martial scene.

It is an eye I never knew to fail with paupers, and if it fails with her, my powerns gone.’ Whether an exceedingly small expansion of eye is sufficient to quell paupers, who, being lightly fed, are in no very high condition, or ; whether the late Mrs. Corney was particularly proof against eagle glances, are; matters of opinion. ' The matter of fact is .that the matron was in no way. overpowered by Mr. Bumble's scowl, but on the contrary, treated it with great disdain, and even raised a laugh threat,, which sounded as though it were genuine.” t ‘- «• j Dickens invests Sam Tappertit with a similar 3 faculty of vision, a 3 will be seen by the following passage-from Barnahy Rudge: “ ‘ He’s got his eyes on me !.’ cried Stag* stopping short on his way back, and affecting to screen his face with the bottle. ‘ I feel ’emthough I can’t see ’em. Take ’em off, noble captain. Remove ’em for they pierce like gimlets.’ Mr. Tappertit smiled grimly at bis comrade, and twisting out one more look—a kind of ocular screw—under the influence of which the blind man feigned to undergo great anguish him, in a softened tone, approach and hold his peace,” Pxpeb.
