(A LEGEND OF PROVIDENCE TOWNSHIP.) DY THE GLADE DARD In dajs of yore, long since gone by, When folks believed in mystery, ’Twas said with truth, that ghosts were then, Actually seen, by living men ; And too, that sounds and phantom 4 light3, Were often heard aod seen at night. But these were tales of olden times, And toid by men from foreign climes; Bo to their truth, I will not voueh, For lies are often told by such. But that which I’m about to tell, There ’re few will doubt, but once befell. ! Twas-on a pleasant night in June, And brightly shone the silver moon ; The stars looked down with modest light, Through the dim curtains of tbo night : Tranquil, and calm was all around, And wrapped in quietness profound, For nought was heard, but hero and there, A wild beast Ijpwling in. its lair. On such a night—amid such scenes, A man was wandering, as it seems ; And traveling e’er the hills around, Where once a strangled man was found. All on a sudden —frightful sight — Flashed o’er his path, a phantom light, o Attended by a dismal sound, Which echoed strangely all around. His limbs they quailed, his blood run cold, Like Belshazzar's did of old ; With horror wild, around, To seo from whence had come the sound ; When ho beheld ; ay, strange to say, A horse with wings, pass o’er the way ; With fiery hoofs, and blazing mane, From which emitted fire and flame. Upon his back a phantom strode, And without curb or rein he rode, And held within his fleshless grasp A horn, with which he blew a blast, That sounded strangely to his-kon, And echoed wildly, buck again : Then died away with tltful sound, Through tbo dim caverns around. Fear ovcrcamo the trembling wight, His limbs refused to bear his weight ; His senses fled —h • knew no more, Tho scone of horrqr all was o’er. And when he to his senses came, The scene had tranquilized again. Tho phantoms all had ta’cn their flight, To regions hid from mortal sight ! But to this day, tis often said, That hill ’a by ghosts inhabited : That often in the silent night, There may bo seen a spcctro light, Which some do say, with firm bolief, Is tho spirit of the strangled Keof.’ New Providence. Correspondence of the Boston Post. letter from Jerusalem. Jerusalem, June 20, 1857 “ And I will make Jerusalem heaps.” After the first few days of excitement which every visitor to Jerusalem must ex perience, thero~succeeds an inexpressible sadneßß,- u melancholy which soon becomes the natural state of mind, and which ap pears to be impressed upon the countenance of every inhabitant of this city, once “the joy of the whole earth.” A walk through its filthy streets is a horror—the “ heaps ” of garbage left to rot in the sun; the slaughter house in the centre of the city ; the tannery, adjacent to, and polluting the holy sepulchre; the skins of animals, yet warm from their bodies 1 , and covered with vermin, exposed at every corner for sale— and, yet worse, if pjßpible, the abominably filthy Jew, the half miked Arab, the horri ble peasants whose skin is hardly to be distinguished from the beastly rags which cover them—create a loathing in the mind of the stranger which cannot better be de scribed than in the words of the prophet— “ They lie down in their shame, and their confusion covereth them.” “I will make this city desolate, and an hissing ; every one that passeth thereby shall be astonish ed and hiss because of all the plagues thereof.” The women, clothed from head to foot in white sheets, with their faces concealed by a black veil, resemble so many ghoules just risen from tbeir subterranean abodes ; more especially as they have a great fancy for cemeteries, where they daily congre gate to.-howl. dSfo sound of youth—there are no boys in the streets —no sound of wheels—there are no carriages ; the dogs, mangy and wolfish, snarl and snap when you disturb them in' their daily work as scavengers, and make the livelong night hideous with their contentions ; the very birds do not sing, but cry to each other with a dissonant chirp, or complain with a harsh murmur.f/From the horrors of the city, if yve pass to the environs, we find naught |)ut bare rocks around—stones and dust beneath—the bright sun reflected from every object burns into the brain—no grass, no trees, no green thing—the prom enades are cemeteries—the seats are whited sepulchres. Here have been buried whole generations of Jews ; here are the bones of the Assyrian, the Egyptian, the Chaldean, the Persian, the Greek, the Syrian, the Roman, the Saracen, the Cru sader, the Turk. In fine, Jerusalem is naught but a “ heap ” of mouldering boneß and shattered houses. But at the time of Easter, when thou sands congregate in the Holy City, does it not present some signs of life 1 It is very true that at that time the population of the city is doubled. But the filth of the city is at the same time quadrupled. The narrow streets are so crowded that it is almost impossible to make way through the motley crowd. The stranger is elbow ed and pushed about by representatives from every nation almost under the sun— (and very dirty representatives they are too.) There is the wily Greek, with gaily embroidered jacket and glitteriug scimeter; the grave Turk, with his inseparable chi bouk ; the fierce Arab, with brown mantle and as many pistols in his belt as he can carry ; the quiet .Armenian, with pen and ink case, instead of pistols; the patient Coft; the impatient American ; the voluble Frenchman, and the silent Englishman ; the Brazilian, the Mexican, the East In dian, the Persian, the Chinese—all mingled together in a kaleidescope of brilliant -colors, and all seen with more satisfaction from a quiet window at a considerable dis tance. All these people, of characters and habits so different, are brought to gether, to the number of from 12,000 to 15,000, for one soul purpose—that of de- < votion. The convents and churches are j filled to overflowing—for almost every one ; of these people has a convent and church, or part of a church, where he can worship i according to his own rites and oeremonies. : But, unfortunately, they very often forget | the motive of their coming, and act in a i manner quite inconsistent with their pro- J fessions. Confusion, noise, quarrels and ( fights are going on from morning until ; night, and the visitor who may have been detained until the Easter season has passed, has a much better chance of seeing Jeru- j salem, quietly and thoroughly, than amid ; all this turbulent and dirty throng. j A person who wishes to make any long stay in Jerusalem finds none of those con- , veoienc.es which he is accustomed to expect, and which are found in other cities. There | are no furnished lodgings, and he is ob- ; liged either to hire a house, to furnish it, J to procure servants, which are here the : very worst in the world, and to go regularly ] to housekeeping, or to resort to a hotel.— j These hotels are private houses changed from their original destination, and are of j the most wretched description. Except ! the houses of the European consuls, which are built expressly for them by their gov ernments, there is not one in the city so good as the house of an American back woodsman. In the winter they are cold, ! and the roofs let in the water, so that the ! builders are really obliged to make the floors slanting, that the water may run oft. In summer they are uninhabitable from the heat. Whatever improvement the tenant may make—if bo cultivate the garden, or stop rhe leak, or 'decorate the house, or eveii if he clean it—is made an excuse by the Turkish landlord for raising the rent, already most exorbitant, because, he says, the house is worth more ! The hotels, of which there are three, are, like the other houses, most wretched—the fare is very poor, and the charge the same as at the Revere.or Astor house! Indeed the ex pense of living, is as great here as it is in Paris or New York, without any of the comforts of those cities. Is their a city so divided against itself as Jerusalem ? I should fatigue you and myself, were I to attempt even to enumer ate the different forms of religion which are here observed ; each community hating the other with all the ranchor of religious animosity, and only prevented by the pow er of the Turk from open hostility. The Turk sits at the door of the Church of tho Holy Sepulchre, smoking his long pipe, and sipping his black coffee, and looks with.eqmul indifference on the Latin, and the Greek, and the Armenian, and the Ooft, and the Chaldean and a dozen others who pass by him on their way to their dif ferent altars, while the Jew who impru dently ventures into the open square in front of the church exposes himself to great peril, if not to certain death, from the hands of both Turk and Christian. The Christian cannot enter the Grand Mosque of the Turk. The Greek, the Latin and the Armenian dispute among themselves ; and, iu the meantime the roof of the church, of the Holy Sepulchre is falling to pieces, and the wind and rain beat upon the Holy Sepulchre itself. 'With this state of oppo sition there can of course be no society, no common ground upon which they all meet. The unsocial Turk inhabits his own quarter of the city and hardly ever leavs it except to demand “ Backsheesh ” for some service which exists only in his imagination. The Jew lives in his own filth in another quar ter, or sneaks about the city in a listless manner, until some charity sent to him from abroad gives him strength to quarrel about his share. Whatever of improvement, or of civilization, is to bo be seen iu Jeru salem, has been effected by the persevering efforts of the Christians, who also have their own quarter of the city; and I can say is somewhat less dirty than the others. A new Pasha has lately arrived, who seems disposed to aid in the work of cleansing the city—but he may turn out, like the others but a new broom. He, however, appears less opposed to innovation than his predecessors. My Wife’s Economy. Mrs. Jones is a jewel of a woman. The dear creature lately eame home from a shopping excursion, in the most extrava gant spirits.” “ I have made such a bargain to-day,” said she, “I have bought such a beautiful dress for nine dollars only ! So I said to myself, even if I get Madame Flourish to make it up, it will be economical! Now, Madame Flourish was a French modiste who lately came from Paris, and has really great taste, but was travagant in her charges, and I nevel- heard her name without a shudder. A few ..months before, shea made a brocade for Mrs. Jones, which every body said fitted beautifully. “It looks as if you were born in it,” enthusiastically declared a friend, “and had grown with you,”, but my pleas ure in contemplating this master-piece, I must confess, was somewhat diminished when the bill came in, to the tune of ten •dollars for making and trimming it. How ever, “it wasd’t so astonishing after all,” as my wife reasoned, “that a dress which was worth thirty dollars should cost ten dollars to make it up,” and with this re flection I consoled myself. So when I heard the proposal to take this other dress to madame, I argued that, if she charged in the same proportion, her bill would be three dollars, which struck me as not ex cessive, and accordingly I made no objec tion to the suggestion, but lighting a cigar, sat thinking of Mary Ann’s many virtues, and especially her knack for economy. In about a fortnight the dress came home. It was a pretty, blue affair with palms set in stripes, and Mrs. Jones really looked like a summer cloud in it, as she floated about the room, displaying it in every aspect, expiating upon its merits. — The sleeves, which were short, were neatly trimmed with a sort of narrow lace and the cape, for it was cut low on the shoul ders, and dear Mary Ann always wears capes over such dresses—was embellished with a wider lace of similar pattern, I thought to myself it was the cheapest dress for twelve dollars making and all, that I had ever seen ; and as I smoked my cigar, said mentally, “'Ah ! Jones, what a happy dog you are to have a wife with such a knack for economy !” Two days after the bill came in. My wife opened it first, and I saw her draw a very long face as she ran her eye over it. However, she rallied immediately, and handed the missive to me. I glanced over it. “Whew!’’.said I. “Bight dollars for making a dress_ that cost only nine ! Sure “ that country is the most prosperous where labor commands the greatest reward. LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 11, 1857. ly, Mary Ann, there must be some mistake here V’ “ Oh, no, my dear,” she said briskly.- j “ My brocade you know, cost ten dollars to make and trim ; and this is two dollars cheaper.” “But this dress cost only nine dollars,” said I. “ The cost of the dress, any dear,” she replied, smiling benevolently at my ignor ance, “has very little to do with the cost of making and trimming it.” “ The dickens it has’nt!” I begaD. “Hush!” said my wife, playfully put ting her hand over her mouth, “Smithy, dear, you musn’t swear.” And taking the bill she commenced going over it, item by item. “ Here,” she said, “is the charge for making the dress, that is for fitting and sewing it together, two dollars. Now I’m sure,” she continued, appealingly, “that’s reasonable ; for it takes just as long you know, to fit and sew together a cheap dress as a costly one ! it’s the time'-that has ! to be paid for. Don’t you see, dear ?” I was forced to nod assent to the fair logician, though it was with an internal groan. “ Then here’s the linings, buttons, and other small items, one dollar, which is low, very low. Consider how these matters count up. Besides, it takes time to go about among the shops, matching the but tons to the dress.” I could not gainsay this either, but 1 said to myself that there were five dollars still unaccounted for, and that it would puzzle a Philadelphia lawyer to reconcile this sum to any rational being’s notion of economy. “ There’s five' dollars left,” resumed Mrs. Jones “which is for the Valencien nes ” “ The what 1” I exclaimed. “The Valenciennes, with whicli the cape and sleeves are trimmed.” “ Oh ! that common looking lace !” said “ Common looking !” cried Mary Ann, her eyes sparkling. Then she laughed comically. “That shows what you men know about laces. Why, Smithy, dear, it’s real Valenciennes, and very cheap, and what’s more, I can use it on some thing else, after the dress is worn out.” “ But why put real Valenciennes, as you call it, on so cheap a dress!” I asked in a tone of vexation. “ It’s that very Valenciennes, that gives the dress such a stylish look,” said my wife. “ Every body knows it’s a cheap material ; and its only the trimming that redeems it. All that 1 require'ls a Valen ciennes collar to match it, and 1 shall be complete.” I could not speak for amazement. I was dumb, not merely at this strauge no tice of an economical dress, but at the ut ter unconsciousness my wife had that there was anything extravagant about it. She availed herself of my silence to expatiate on the beauty of Valenciennes laces in genera], and on that which trimmed her dress in particular ; and warming with her subject, made it finally to appear that we were under infinite obligations to Madame Flourish for the opportunity of paying this and buying a collar to match her \ alenci ennes. Mrs. Jones was so earnest and sin cere, that I thought it would be a pity to break her charming delusion. I resolved, therefore, to smoke second rate cigars for the next six mouths, and indulge the dear creature in her wishes; and she looks so lovely, and seems so happy in her new dress and collar, that, to confess the truth, I don’t regret what I have done. Nevertheless, as an abstract proposition, I still hold to the secret opinion, that pay ing eight dollars for making and trimming a dress that cost only nine doesn’t exactly show a knack for economy. Lager Beer—lts Origin. "Beer being at the present time the prin cipal beverage of our city, it may be well enough to give its origin and history, and \ we propose to do so in the present article. | The exact period of the introduction of fermented liquor as produced from barley and other farinaceous grains, is not known, lleroditus and Didorous Siculus state that the Egyptians prepared a drink from bar ley slightly inferior to wines manufactured in Palestine and other Eastern countries, they having no grapes on their own land, a circumstance which is considered some what remarkable, as the grape is now cul tivated there. Tacitus, Piny and other classical authors also bear testimony to an intoxicating beverage made from malted grain among the ancient Herman and Hauls, and this was, no doubt, at the same time generally known among the Celtic nations in the north of Europe. It is not certain, however, what grains were used in the manufacture besides barley. In England before the use of beer, which was not man ufactured because there was but little, if any cultivation of the soil, and hence no barley or other grain, mead, produced from honey, appears to have been generally drank. Raw barley does not readily ferment,.of itself, a decoction becoming rather sour than vinous ; hence the process of malting was resorted to, and the addition of bitters made. The name for ale in the ancient British language was cwrw , and this still is used for the title of the beverage in Wales. — The term ale is derived from the Danish ala, our English word beer is synonymous with the Herman bier, and is derived from the Saxon here, barley. A variety of that grain is still called bere in Scotland. The French bierre, and the Italian biarra, must claim the same source ; and all, it is added, have their origin in the Hebrew word fur corn, pronounced her. The Anglo-Saxons appear to have drank principally mead and beer; rather more, of the latter too,. than the former. Ale and ale-houses were known among them as early as A. D. 728, during the reign of Ina the King, this being mentioned in the laws of the time. Wine, which was manu factured in the monasteries, does not ap to have been introduced into England j until after the M orman conquest, and then j only patronized by . the nobles and the 1 clergy. The masses adhered to their beer : guzzlings. Finally, wine began to be drank more freely by the oi polloi; and the practice was continued up to the time j of the Reformation, when many of the! ecclesiastical and other gardens were des- | troyed, and there was a return to beer or ale. I A number of substances were used by our ancestors to neutralize the sweet mawkish taste of liquor fermented from barley, as well as to correct acidity. Hon ey has always been a popular ingredient. Wort and honey together, Dubrufaut, a famous chemist from France, once recom mended. Bitter herbs were formerly in fused in the beer, principally however, in that of home-made manufacture, which physicians were prone to recommend as a blood purifier ! Other fancy beers used at an early day among our ancestors were mum and spiced ale, iu which last corian der, carraway and other seed were intro duced ; also ginger, orange peel, orris root, &e. The brewers- of olden time, until legislation forbade them, likewise employed quassa, snuff, wormwood, and even fouler substances, to qualify their concoctions or= give them a tone. Hops were first used in the beginning of the fourteenth century, in thaNetherlands, and finally were adopted by English brew ers’. There was a prejudice existing against them at first, it being reported by them who pretended to know, that they ‘dried up the body and produced melan choly.’ So strong a hold did this impres sion take of the public mind, that the household regulations of Henry VIII had a clause forbidding the use of it by Eng lish brewers. Iu 1557. public opinion seems to have changed, for Tusler, in his Treatise on Husbandry, thus sings their praise : « “ The hop for his profit I thus do exalt, It strengthens the drink and favoreth tho malt ; And being well brewed long kept it will last, And drawing abide, if ye draw it not fast,” In 1(500 hops were more generally used. Previously to this time beer must have been quite a different article to what it now is. It had but a small quality of bit ter, and was not calculated probably for keeping by being put away in tightly cork ed bottles, and drank when new. It is stated as late as 1616 in the Moison rus tique that “the general use is by no means to put hops into ale, making that the dif ference between it and beere, that the one hath hops and the other none; but the wiser huswiues do find au error in that opinion, and say the vtter want of hops is tjie reason why ale lasteth so short a time, but either dieth or soureth, and therefore they will, to euery barrell of the best ale allow a halfe a pound good hops.” The use of hops seems to have been long ad vanced—partly from findiDg that it pre vented the beer from turning acid, and partly from a'growing taste for the flavor it imparts. Of much of the general facts regarding beer and its origin, we propose in a future article to speak of the different kinds of beer, and especially the all-popular Lager, which seems to have taken us by storm. — The subject is one of great interest. —Daily News.

Medicines used only which will not break down the constitution, but will renovate the system from all injuries it has sustained from mineral medicines.— Chronic and difficult diseases must he treated upon analyt ical principles; which is to know and ascertain what dis ease is. Its nature and character require a knowledge of the chemical constituent of every solid and fluid of the hu mau body—[the changes those solids and fluids aro capable of undergoing. To kuow what medicines to employ to cure diseases, requires a knowledge of the chemical con stituents of all agents employed in medicines, and if we are in possession of this knowledge, it is possible to cure any disease —no matter of how longstanding—and leave the patieut iu a healthy and perfectly cured condition! Dyspepsia, that distressing disease and fell destroyer of health and happiness, undermining the constitution, and yearly carrying thousands to untimely graves, can most em phatically be cured.
