object of Arabian worship. But though
of noblebirth, the early life of Moham

melancholy, took no satisfaction in the
ordinary ,occupations and diversion s of
men, but seen2ed to find its chief pleasure
in solitude and meditation. From his in
fancy, too, he was subject to epileptic fits.
The pmelivities or such a . disposition
could only be directed -to a legitimate use
in'life, by:a judicious and thorough edu-:
cation. Such an education Mohammed
never received. Left to his own dreamy
meditations, or sent to tend his .uncle's
flocks in the mountains, he never learned
to read, but grew up a melancholy mystic.

said that the temptations of riches pro
sented by , the episcopates were- so great
that the election of a Bishop was often
attended 'by frightful 'murders. The pure
religion taught by our Saviour and his
immediate . successors, had undergone an
entire transformation when the- chinch
attained supreme power. 'To conciliate,
the Pagans there had been a compromise:

-Miracles were of common occurrence. In

ivho ordained that all who did not accord
with the belief of Demasus, Bishop. of
/Home, and' Peter, Bishop of Alexandria,
should he driven into exile and deprived of
civil rights. It is needless to add that
Europe was debased enough to submit to
this monstrous regimen. It bad bean:nal
a capital offense to express an opinion
,which might be construed as antagonistic
to the traditions of the church.- True
knovrledge was fast becoming extinct :
the world was sinking back into barba
rism. Arabia, protected 'by its isolated
position, its vast deserts, and the bravery
of its sobs, had :resisted successively all
efforts of the Asayriaxis, - Persians, Greeks
and Itomans to enslave her. Here the
persecuted 'Of • all sects in turn fled for '

of a learned Jew named Waraka, .cousin
to his wife. Thitl, man had , beeoawei a .
Christian, and through his converistcon,
Mohammegts detestation of idolattY\w.As
confirmed. :His active and.poetic intellect
-grew gloontr in repose. His mode of lifts \
became more ascetic. He often fied,from
his home to a grotto in Mount Hera, a-
few miles from Mecca, and- there gave
himself up for days to prayer and fasting.
Incessant pittyer and fasting, of the per
petal concentration of the : mind to one
subject,' will produce - hallucination, and
probably this is the explanation. of that
'spiritual state of Mind which a' tends the
leaders of great 'reformatory movements
aOxyag men. Shadowy forms hovered in
the hazy Mr near the Arabian; strange
voices seemed ever to whisper in his ear
of mighty truths, ,Whose - import he, the
chosen seMut of '.the Most High, was to
divulge to men. In this little grotto the
Angel Gabriel

him the Romni,7 ,- - Convinced of his divine
mission, Moliaremed commenced 'to
preach. His harangue was a vehement
arafgnmeitt of idolatry and a noble vindi
cation of the majesty bf the One - God. It
may well be imagined that these doctrines
Were received With no favor by theTexist
ing idolatry.' A storm of fury and perse
cation greeted the newpreaciter. It was
with difficulty that the intlnence of his
uncle, Abu Talib, could save his life.
Fearing for his safety,' ho lied mit?: his
faithful 'wife end a few trusty adherents to

number had increased to 1500. But now

The spirit that s had cleated Islam' now
'lived °Milo the breasts Oftollower:s.
Warrior, priest, legislator, and judge, his
prodigious labors at last produced their
',effect on the naturally robust constitution
of Mohammed. He died in his 63d year,—
his last act an order for the distribittion
of ail the money-in the house to the poor;
his last words, "O God ! forgive My sins;
be it 80,4 come." ,
The character of this wonderful man
has been so -traduced by the writers of the )
past, that not until the present "century
has any just estimate of his, character and I
of the work he did been held even by wri
ters of the greatest distinction'. But the
most candid and weighty writers now,
,seem Willing to admit that With all his
weaknesses and foibles, his; - fanaticism
and ignorance, Mohammed himself sin
cerely believed in his own divine missiOn.
The zeal with which he gave up a liftiof
ease and effluence, and consecrated lids
life to this establishment of principles
which were sure to , draiv- upon him per*s
cation and perhaps , death,' is a sufficient
proof of this, in the judgment of every
fair-minded person. Probably the most
unfortunate occurrence that befel him,
was the death of chadizah. She wateto
'Mohammed what many writers laic he
lighted to say Josephine waslto Napoleon,.
or Catharine. to Peter thoDr4at—his good '
genius. A recent writet! has ',said: "With
out hechrve and faith, we may fancy he
would nev‘r have become the Prophet of
Islam; and in her.death mankind received
r i severe wound." The most' truly re
pulsive feature.of his private life was his
Wyganty during the latter part of .- his,
life, bet we must remember that this, re;
