■‘Superstition and Force: Essays on The
Wager of Law, Tlic Wager of Battle; The
Ordeal; Torture. By Henry C. Lea. pp.
407.” Very recently we noticed at some
length a work by Mr. Lea, Which we con
sidcrcd too valuable to allow to pass without
a few words of comment and commendation.
The present work, though first in the order
of publication, claims from us atthis late day
a thoughtful attention. We premise our re
marks with the statement, that Mr. Lea is
both the author and the publisher of this
work, and shows himself as much the master
in the one department as in the other. The
volume is made up of essays on the subjects
named in the title, three of which he first pub
lished in the North American Review.
The subjects treated of are of singular
interest in themselves, and certainly
lose none of their interest by the manner in
which the author has discussed them. We
did not suppose him to be competent to write
a work not-wcll worth the reading, but we
confess that we took up this volume expect
ing to find a somewhat heavy discussion of
the topics named. We were agreeably sur
prised to find it anything but heavy reading
We found in it rich instruction and thorough,
illustration, the several topics examined being
discussed in the light of numerous anecdotes
with some of which we have had Familiar
acquaintance, but with more of which our
reading has never brought us into contact.
Although prepared as distinct essays on the
several subjects named, the chapters consti
tute, in truth, a history of the general
subject of wager, and curiously illus
trate the progress of ideas, and so
the advancement of civilization. The student
of history will find his memory refreshed by
the perusal of this volume, and few can exam
ine it without feeling themselves under great
obligations to an author, the bent of whose
mind has led him to track through all history,
ancient and modern, whatever can be learned
-on the subject of the “Wager” and the cog
nate means once and but recently employed
for the eduction of the truth. .
There is a peculiar fascination accompany
ing that habit of study, which, taking up
some one theme, that leaps out before the
mind, from the mass of • history, makes it
hold itself subject to the call of the searcher,
and to spring up at his volition on every
hand. Every reader of histoiy has noticed
the frequent recurrence of the wager,
torture and ordeal in its pages;
but few would have deemed it practicable,
or, if practicable, worth the effort to search
through the details of history to gather to
gether all the allusions to them. Mr. Lea
has done this very thoroughly and very ad
mirably, and we are at a loss which to com
mend the most, his patient industiy in
gathering his materials, the extent of his
reading, by which he has brought himself
into familiar contact with them, or the ease
with which he moves among them, as things
to which he could never have been a
stranger. The result of his patient research
is the very instructive volume before us. The
volume shows u$ how men in all ages have :
labored to educe the truth from their oppo
nents, and exhibits to us the expe
dients to which they resorted in order
to' attain it. It seems to us a
very novel method of proving a man to be
truthful, to require four men to swear as
compurgators that they honestly believe him
to he truthful. Yet this process was by no
means uncommon as late as the reign of
Edward VI. In our own day we have a relic
of barbarism among us, akin to this matter of
wager. One who imagines his honor to be
wounded challenges another to deadly com
bat, staking upon the issue the truth or
falseness of the alleged imputation. The
chances are just as much in favor of the one
party.as the other. The challenger may
escape unhurt, and his adversary be killed;
but it certainly does not prove the latter
wrong, nor the former not The in
stance of David and Goliah may occur to the
mind as one in which the decision was
clearly on the side of right. It was so, but
it was Divinely ordered; for David was the
appointed champion of the cause of God.
This cannot be said of modern duels, nor of
modem battles; or, if it can be said, it will
not be alleged that either party knows him
self inspired of God.
The ordeal has ever presented to our minds
more of interest than either the wager or the
torture, perhaps because of its- having been
divinely prescribed in the Mosaic code. * The
reader will find in this chapter very much
that is suggestive and rich with instruction.
Torture of various kinds has been resorted
to in all ages, in order to aid in the discovery
of the truth. If it had been always employed
upon the guilty it might, in most cases, have
been successful. Unfortunately, men, women,
and even children have been tortured to elicit
confession of which they were
•wholly innocent and ignorant. The world has
progressed somewhat since then; but we have
known, within the last few years, men and
women cruelly tortued on the mere suspicion
■—as it proved, the groundless suspicion—of
possessing information which, if elicited,
would have proved invaluable to their
tormentors.
We regret that we must do the author the
seedling injustice ol so cursory and unsatis
factory a review. We can make only partial
amends by saving that we have found no
page that was not freighted with material
for a very extended notice.
We cordially thank Mr. Lea for the interest
and instruction we have found in this volume,
and we sincerely trust that a mind so gifted
and a pen so facile will give to us many
works of e<iual interest with those already be
fore the public. He will not, we are sure,
consider our suggestion an impertinent one,
if we suggest that a history of the orders of
knighthood is one that his pen would grace,
and which lew are as competent as he to dis
cuss impartially,-and to invest with deepest
interest.
“Christianity and its Conflicts, Ancient and
Modern. By E. E. Marcy, A. M. New
Yoik. D. Appleton & Co., 1807; p. p. iso.”
The politeness of Mr. D. Ashmead has
placed upon our table this volume, published,
aa will be seen, by the Appletons of! New
Ybik. , Of the author we know no more
than appears from the title page, and from
lhe work the title is a
misnomer. The author considers Christi
anity from his own ecclesiastical standpoint,
and excludes from the pale Of Christianity
all who do not see and think as he does. We
have noted numerous errors in history, many
false quotations, and so mahy perversions of
history, as to induce us to advise our readers
that the work is wholly unreliable. The style
of the author is a little too much on the as
cendant—that of a young man laboring to
produce a stirring sensation. Some of his
passages are tinged with genuine eloquence,
but the remainder become the more insipid
from overstraining.
“The Human Element in the Inspiration of
the Sacred Scriptures, by T. F. Curtis, D. D.
New York, Appleton &Co., 18(17.” The au
thor of this book bas gone out of the beaten
track. Most writers on the subject of Inspi
ration have undertaken to show that a high
degree of divine illumination and guidance
was communicated to holy men to impart
divine knowledge to mortals. This book is
written not only to claim for the holy Scrip
tures divine authority, but to teach the reader
of the Bible to examine it in a fearless spirit
of inquiry. ~ The difficulties in reconciling
the. Chronology of, the Bible ..with the re
searches of Geology are fairly stated and fully
met. Unlike Dr. Golenso, the writer does
not infer from the difficulties that arise that
there is no truth in the historical portion of
the Bible. He is as much impressed with the
vexed question, but while he shuns the dan
gerous path of skepticism on the one hand,
he, on the other hand, studiously avoids that
which has led many to the point of predicat
ing the infallibility of the Bible on matters of
science and history; and leads the thoughtful
reader to the standpoint where he can investi
gate the subject for the purpose of being
grounded and settled in the truth of the Book
of books. For sale by D. Ashmead.
“Angelic Philosophy of the Divine Love
and Wisdom, by Emanuel Swedenborg.
Philadelphia, J. ll..Lippineott & Co., 18(17.”
The fervent prayer in the hymn,
“Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of oura,”
should never cease to be Used. There is too
much icy coldness in the heart and conduct,
however the temperature of the atmosphere
may indicate the contrary. This work of the
earnest and excellent Emanuel Swedenborg
treats of love, a quality of which it would be
better for the world if there were more.
The book (not love) was first written in
Latin, and now comes forth in a translation
made by K. Norman Foster. In some parts
the translator has taken liberties with the
original, to make the book better understood
by those who read the work in an English
dress. The reasons for this departure are
candidly given and accounted!'or. Those
who do not endorse Emanuel Swedenborg’s
views concede to him sincerity and a large
share of the love of benevolence. But those
who are his disciples will no doubt be pleased
with this book, Which treats of divine love
and wisdom as life and light. The idea of
correspondencies between the natural and
spiritual worlds is dwelt upon, and that
angels are constantly imparting knowledge:
The book is gotten up in handsome style,
both as regards paper, binding and typo
graphy. -
“.foil 11 Btoun,” the Reputed Lover of
Hie Queen—'Alic Latent Reports About
It i ni.
Referring to the Queen’s visit to Floors
Castle, the Edinburgh correspondent of the
Iverness Advertiser says:
“It was observed on several occasions that
John appeared somewhat officious in the dis
charge of his duty toward Her Majesty. For
instance, when the royal train arrived at
Kelso, John was the first to approach the
carriage which contained the Queen, and,
but for the intervention of the Duke aud
Duchess of Roxburgh, the Duke of Buc
cleuch, and other distinguished company on
the platform, the stalwart Highlander would
have conducted his Sovereign across the
platform and through the triumphal arch to
the royal carriage at the outside of the sta
tion. This he was prevented from doiug by
the Duchess of Roxburgh, who all but
pressed bim to one side in order to approach
the Queen on alighting from the royal saloon.
John, who was dressed in full Highland cos
tume, seemed immensely proud of his posi
tion; and it was certainly amusing in the ex
treme to see him now and again, with a
broad grin, bowing bis acknowledgments for
the cheers raised for her Majesty, some of
which he probably thought were intended for
himself. On the occasion of the visit to Mel
rose, John accompanied the royal visitors
into the abbey, and seemed anxious to obtain
a good view Of the architectural beauties
with which it abounds. On returning to
the carriage in advance of the Queen,
he found that his Balmoral bonnet
had fallen from the back seat over
to that which her Majesty was - again
about to occupy; he lifted it up with the poiut
of her Majesty's parasol, then took the Queen’s
black shawl; and threw it over bis arm, and
on her Majesty again rcachiug the carriage he
assisted her into her beat, and placed the
shawl over her shoulders with great care.
‘Welcome to the Borders—John Brown,’
and ‘God Save the Queen—John Brown,'
were the words which, surrounded with iloral
decorations, were displayed over a shop , in
one of the principal streets in Kelso. They
were words that astonished many of the pass
ers-by. But the simple explanation is this—
that the John Brown whose name was painted
under die mottoes was no odier than die de
cent man who kept the shop, and who never
dreamed of a joke when lie surroutuled his
sign-board with these words of welcome aud
goodwill towards his sovereign ’’
Stories About Norwegians.
A traveler tells a story of a Ilallingdal man
who entered a church during the perlormanee
of divine service. Walking up the aisle of
the church, lie stood a moment in front of
the communion table, and then, turning a
somersault, he sprang over the communion
rails and alighted on the table. The offici
ating clergyman, who was renowned for
his great strength, seized the offender by the
seek, and hurled him back again among the
people, where he remained for some time in
sensible. Now, the Norwegians are very
fond of witnessing feats of strength, and the,
clergyman in question was ever afterwards
much esteemed. A remarkable feat was per
formed by a soldier, a Ilallingdal man, in the
garrison at Christiana. A brother soldier
held up his cup as high in the air as ho could,
aud the Ilallingdal man taking a sudden leap
knocked the cap out of the hand of the other
with liis light foot.
The men of Ilallingdal are said to have a
strange and barbarous custom when in drink.
When well primed with iinket, they draw
llieir short knives, and pointing them to each
other, they inquire in an amicable way,
“Row far will you go ?” A certain portion

of each knife is then measured off on each
side, and the remainder of the blade is care
fully bound round with cloth, so that the
knives cannot penetrate beyond a certain dis
tance. All present then set to work and stab
and slash each other in all directions. Some
times these encounters end fatally, but a
little blood-letting does none of the parties any
harm. It may be asked if these strange combats
arise from a natural taste for shedding blood.
It is said not to be so, but the custom has
been handed down from father to son for
many generations, and that, any Hallingdal
man who refused to - fight when challenged
would be branded as a coward.
Here is another anecdote: Two English
travelers were making an excursion through
Norwegian Lapland, accompanied by a Lapp
guide; it was summer time, and the day was
extremely hot and oppressive; so, having to'
make their way over some high mountains,
they sat down on a good-sized stone to rest.
The Lapp guide stood at a respectful distance,
but being inquisitive, as his people generally
are, he kept his eyes firmly fixed, on the
Englishmen ta observe what they were
doing. One of the travelers happened to
wear a wig, and wishing to cool his head he
removed it, as well as his hat. On seeing
this, to him, extraordinary proceeding, the
Lapp stood for a moment spell-bound—he
had never seen such a thing as a wig before.
He then beat his hands on his breast, gave a
most unearthly howl, and subsided into
silence. He made no remark', and the tra
velers proceeded on their way; but the Lapp
could not be persuaded on any account to go
near the Englishman who wore a wig.
Religious Persecution in England.
A dissenter, named Forstee, is in jail at
Tantan, 'Somersetshire, -for the crime of
having refused to pay a church rate of a few
shillings. He was sued in the Bishops’ Court,
and condemned to pay costs amounting to more
than .£147. As he was too poor to pay this
sum, his property, at last accounts, was soon
to be sold. He will be left without a penny,
a warning to all other dissenters to let the
Establishment pick their pockets without
making any foolish resistance.
The second case is that of one Job Smee
ton, tenant farmer at Sibbertoff, Northampton
shire. He voted against the imposition, in a
double sense, of a church rate, refused to pay
his quota, and was notified by the agent of
his landlord, the honorable F. W. C. Villiers,
to vacate his farm. In a manly letter to Mr.
Villiers, Mr. Smeeton says :
“I am the oldest tenant upon your estate in
this neighborhood, myself and my father
having occupied some part of it for upwards
of sixty years. We have also, although non
comformists, been recently solicited to con
tribute towards the restoration of the parish
church’, and have cheerfully complied. I
should therefore have thought that an English..
gentleman, especially one bearing the name
of Villiers, would have hesitated before
adopting so extreme and peremptory a pro
ceeding. Similar acts on the part of church
men, both clerical and lay, in this neighbor
hood have already attracted some public
attention; so I confess to no special surprise
at the course you have thought fit to pursue.
Your neighbor, Captain Ashby, of Naseby
Woolleys, refused a farm to the late Mr.
Henry Smeeton simply, solely and avowedly
because he was a nonconformist. Even in
this village we have seen a little girl turned
out of the national school—though the
school had been partly built by public
money —because the parents of the child,
being members of a Baptist church, had not
had her christened." * * * “I will not
trouble you with the reasons why, as a non
conformist,. I object to be compelled to pay
for the support of another man’s religion.
With those reasons every intelligent English
man is already familiar; and large, majorities
orthe House of Commons have resolved that
such an anomaly shall no longer exist, and 1
that church rates shall be abolished. And I
am thankfUl to know that the reformed Par
liament will amend some other matters that
at present are at issue between churchmen
and ourselves. In conclusion, I thank you
lor the explicitness of your agent’s note. You
will have the satisfaction of being one of the
last of English landlords who turned out of
his farm a tenant because he refused to pay
church rates.”
It is to be hoped that Parliament will not
disappoint Mr. Smeet®n.
Two persons write to the Inverness Cou
rier to say that a slight shock of earthquake
was felt at Lochbroom on the morning of
Tuesday week. “The preceding night,’’says
one writer, “was calm and very oppressive.
A few seconds before the shock a noise like
the approach of a carriage over pavement
was heard, increasing eveiy moment until it
resembled the rumbling of thunder. The
shock which immediately followed shook the •
house in which I slept as if a great rock had
fallen near it. People who were awakened
by the sudden noise and the Rocking of their
beds were quite bewildered. Hundreds felt
the earthquake in this parish, and it is cu
rious to hear the different descriptions given
of it; for many were, naturally enough,
very much frightened. Articles were thrown
down and broken in some of the houses, anil
dogs and other animals manifested
the greatest alarm. -Stones and broken pieces
of rock were falling from the hills and high
precipices for days afterwards. The earth
quake seems to have rolled on from the
southeast. 1 ' The other correspondent says"
the shock took place between one and two
o’clock in the morning. Several members of
his family felt the house shake as if it were
wrested from its foundations. He also de
scribes the noise which preceded it as like
the rumbling of carriages approaching from
the southeast. Two female servants who
slept in a wing of the house w T ere aroused by
the piteous whining of the house dog; and
hearing at the same time the rolling sound,
one of them got up to see what was the
matter. She had scarcely risen when she
felt the house' and everything around her
shaking and vibrating in a manner that quite
alarmed her. After the shock had passed
the sky cleared up so much that it was pos
sible to see the hour ou a watch.
Tlic Ward Brothers, who won the boat race
at Springfield last week, went through a severe
training for that contest. For several weeks
they eat lean mutton and beef, careful always
to avoid fatj had no pepper, spices or any con
diments in their food, and only a little salt;
abjured vinegar and all other acids, as well as
tobacco in every form; drank little water at
their meals or at any other time, and no
stronger liquors, except occasionally a little
Scotch ale or claret; took exercise systematic
ally, with an especial reference to increasing
their muscular power and improving their
“wind;” and after every exercise were persis
tently “rubbed down,” as a well-attended
horse would be. This discipline had attained
such complete results that the brothers were
able to r,ow six miles with scar«cly a quick
ening of the pulse.

POLITICAL.
The Union League on the Political
Situation.
The members of the Union League assembled
in large numbers at the League House, on Broad
street, last evening, fir the purpose of taking
action on such, measures as may be deemed
necessary in relation to the existing state of na
tional affairs. ,
The meeting was called to order at eight o clock
by J. Gillingham Fell, President of the League;
and among other business the following resolu
tions were read and adopted with great unanlm
ity:
Whereas. This League was organized for the
purpose of sustaining the National Government,
and the measures adopted by its authority for
(he suppression of the Rebellion, nndol discount
enancing by nil proper means and .influences that
disloyal spirit which was in sympathy with
slavery and treason, and animated all the con
ventions and councils of the Democratic party.
And. Whereas, That clforts of the Democratic
party, now led by a weak and faithless man in
the accidental exercise of the Presidential office,
to keep alive the spirit of rebellion by a war upon
Congress, by the nullification of the laws, by in
sidious attacks upon the public credit and by
their apparent sympathy with prominent traitors,
prove that the work of loyalty ip not yet accom
plished, ami admonish' us ol serious dangers to
the public peace, which would be greatly en
hanced by the success of -that party in .the
popular elections now at hand.
1. Therefore, Resolved, That we do most earn
estly invoke the loyal citizens of Pennsylvania
to a serious consideration of our present political
condition, and to the importance of a united and
vigorous effort to hasten the reconstruction of the
Ufiion, and tranquillize the country by the defeat
of the Democratic party and all its candidates at
the approaching election.
2. That the laws passed by Congress having for
their object the reconstruction of the Union on the
basis of liberty and justice to all men, reflecting
as they do the loyal sentiment of the country,
offer to the people of the South the most favor
able terms upon which they can reasonably hope
to be reinvested with the rights they voluntarily
relinquished, in their mad attempt to destroy the
government which conferred .them.
;i. That the public acts of Congress under the
Constitution are the supreme laws of the land;
that it is no less the duty of the President to see
that they are faithfully executed, than it is of the
people to obey them; but whethei those laws
relate to the reconstruction of the Union or to
other subjects, every attempt of the President to
frustrate or delay the execution of them is a
violation of his trust and an abuse of the power
of his office. •
4. Resolved, That impeachment is the sole
defence of the people against the incapacity,
negligence or perfidy of the Chief Magistrate.—
Madison.
That with a vipw to the exercise of the power
of inipenchnieng the House of Representative*
have a right to investigate the conduct of all
public officers under the government,aud in such
a case the safety of the republic is the supreme
law; and the power of the House In pursuit of
this object reaches the most secret recesses of the
Executive department.— 'James K. Rolk.
That the abuse of power conferred upon the
President may be as criminal as the usurpation of
power which has not been granted, and would
justify the House of Representatives in voting an
impeachment. —James Buchanan.
That a wanton removal of meritorious officers
by the President is an abuse of power which sub
jects him to impeachment and removal fronS his
owu high trust.— Madison .,
:>. Resolved, That the prompt and indiscrimi
nate pardon of persons duly convicted and sen
tenced in the courts of the United States, for
counterfeiting the national currency;
The attempt to nullify the act passed by Con
gress over the Executive veto, for the reconstruc
tion of the Union;
The suspension of Edwin M: Stanton from the
'office of Secretary of War, the duties of which
he had performed not only with fidelity to the
country, but with distinguished ability;
The removal of General Sheridan, an accom
plished and illustrious officer,from his command,
at the instance of prominent traitors whom he
had offended by his faithful execution of the laws:
And the recent'proclamation of amnesty, is
sued as we believe without authority, and for the
purpose of restoring to influence and power per
sons who incited the South to rebellion, and who
are yet under an oath of allegiance to a govern
ment unknown to the Constitution, which they
hope to re-establish, are acts which constitute
jirima facie such abuses and usurpations of
power, as to demand the impeachment and trial
of the offender, in . order that the Constitution
may be vindicated and the National Government
preserved in its integrity. .
(1. That in the present alarming crisis of the
country, we conceive it to be our duty to use all
proper meaiiß to exclude the political influence,
and patronage of the Democratic party from all
offices within the gift ol the people; and to that
end we appeal to the loyal citizens of Philadel
phia and of the Commonwealth to attend the
polls at the approaching election, and cast their
votes for the candidates presented by the Repub
lican nominating conventions.
7. Resolved, That we do most especially, and
earnestly recommend the election of Henry W.
Williams, of Pittsburgh, to the bench of the
Supreme Court, as a learned and accomplished
jurist and a truly upright and loyal citizen.,
Aud in like manner we recommend to our fel
low-citizens of Philadelphia the election of M.
Russell Thayer as Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas; assuring them that in Mr. Thayer they
have a candidate of the highest legal ability and
of the purest character, and one whose loyalty is
inborn and above suspicion.
8. That a committee of fifty members of the
League be appointed by the Chairman of this
meeting to curry into effect the sixth of these re
solutions.
Philadelphia Politicians at the White
House.
The Washington despatch of the Inquirer says:
Samuel J. Randall, Wm. McCandlcss, Bamuel
Josephs, Joseph Megary and John Maginuis,
leading Democratic politicians' of Philadelphia,
arrived here this morning, for the purpose of
urging upon the President and Heads of Depart
ments the importance of assisting the Democra
tic party at the coming election. The party
waited on President Johnson, and were intro
duced by Mr. Randall. What transpired there no
one outside of their number knows.
They afterwards called on Secretary Welles, at
the Navy Department, to induce him to order
repairs to be commenced upon the seven vessels
of war which are now Baid to be lying at the
Navy Yard in Philadelphia, and which, they
think, need repairs about this time. It is under
stood that Secretary Welles gave them his
warmest sympathies m the cause in which they
were laboring, but did not indicate positively
what he would do in the matter.
They also visited Secretary McCulloch at the
Treasury Department, where they presented
their claims to the worthy Secretary, who re
ceived them in his usual bland style, but what
encouragement he gave is not known. It is gen
erally thought that they did not get much com
fort. They afterwards visited Mr. Harlan, Acting
Commissioner of Internal Revenue, on mysteri
ous - and important business relative -to that
branch of the Treasury Department.
The visit of these gentlemen has caused much
speculation, but apart from the appeal for aid
from the Navy Department, it is understood that
their visit to tho Treasury Department was in
relation to filling the places ot five Revenue In
spectors, four of whom have just been dismissed
upon the recommendation of the Internal Reve
nue Board of Philadelphia; two op account of
inilllcieney, one upon the charge of extorting
money illegally, one for accepting bribes, and
one on account of his political opinions. -
The latter was Gavin 11. Woodward, Revenue
Inspector, who was dismissed to-day, itis alleged,
because he was a delegate to the Republican City
Convention, at which resolutions were passed de
nouncing President Johnson. Tho names of the
other parties, for obvious reasons, are not given.
• The delegation to-day, it is understood, pre
sented to Secretary McCulloch the lists of persons
of their political faith to fill these positions, men
of undoubted integrity, in whose hearts there is
no guilt, and who nre> besides, good Democrats.
What action the Secretary will take is not known,
bfit it is thought he will wait until Commissioner
Rollins returns before filling any of tho vacancies;
qud it is even said they may not bo filled at all,as
it is thought the government can do without them
and save money:
