depth Of superstition is generally proportkinate ,
te.the ignorance and backwardness of .the
'coulitty in which it exists.. ,Yet the erroneous
belief seems to be closely connected with •the:
virtues of those who , Judd it; and the problem
is constantly recurring , whether the ' genora,l
principleofspeaking the truth can justify us. in
destMying so much which we may be quite un
able to replace... The sternest Protestant may
hesitate betbre playing the part of Knoit,break
, hug up the painted a irgins -for firewood; and
explaining to their 'treaters that the priests are
ignorant, or imposters. Hem. indeed,' the nroli.j
lem is only, that which has been' felt by, most
sceptical philosophers., They have generally,
shiunk,like Kant, from drawing the obvious'
-consequences of their own opinions:,, They
I have preached something .like Atheism, and
saved themselves by some violent contortions
on the very brink of tire' precipice:; It is `only
fait. toasuppose that this was due *net Meiely - to
.thefear of provoking hostile prenklices, but to
the, sense that doctrines leading to such nielan-'
choly consequences, even if. no logical flaw
could :be discovered iu their_ arguments, had
better, be kept from - the knowledge: j ot* man
kind., a'man should discover thatlhe ,ship
.in Which lie was embarked was defamed M'

,'destinetion, he might prefer to letiVe
his fellow-passengers to enjoy tbeirlast liOurs in
ignorance of their approaching fate. The plan
is indeed a hopeless one, for it is not easy to pre- , .
• serve such secrets. When a writer casts' abroad
upon the world the seeds of some new ' ideas,
they will bear their natural fruit whether lie
wishes it or not, turd though he may personally
refrain front superintending their growth. It
is not necessary to apply a match, when you
have strewed enough gunpowder about to in-.
sure that it will blowup sooner °Hater. Yet,
when speaking what We believe to be' the truth
as to the groundlessness of ceutain popular be
liefs, we are constantly held back by a certain
. sense of remors.e,not to he summarily. quenched.
A man who' does not share the creed of. his

wantonly to disturb their belief; and it is hard
to condemn his weakness as' altogether unjus

We may indeed allow, without airy prejudice
to Morality, that Spreading the, truth may fre,- 7
qUently do harm. All the op.linary eases of
casuistry, such as telling a murderer the where
abouts-of his victim, and so on, are instances
of this; and the resulting evil may frequently
be So 'palpable as in the Opinion of riapSt people
to overpower' the obligation of truthfulness. A
knoWledge of the propePties of matter may do.
barna by enabling rogues to carry out their
evil designs; but on the whole, mankind is the
better beyond all doubt for an increase of such
:knowledge. In the same - way; the instances
given' do not tell against the general preOunp
den that, in Matters of speculation, With 'is
better than falsehood. It, .is better that we,
should know wihat the world really is, that we
array know what is thehest. _use to make of

-Near the.point where the • snow ,began to,
slope towards the baSe of :the ••-Mountain the
crisp:surface broke under my= feet; =di , disag
peared-, as suddenly as thrOugh'a trapthiordiato
a concealed Crevasse., Paul,:Whe Was next be
hind me on the rope, was hOrroriatruelt,andhis
first impulse was to rush to the brink to see
what had become of me-=,:w. course of:-Iproceed
ing which had to be sunimarily, cheated . by
my companions. The' - ereVisSe' was one of
those which gradually enlarge as they deStend;
btit the check given, by the 'rope „enabled' me,
at once to plapt my feet on a ledge on, one
side, :and back
.against.the , other.
The position was' more ludicrous than
uncomfortable. I , had both hands in my
pockets, and - my ice-axe under my min;- and
. owing to the tightness of the, rope, - and the'
eMmped space, it'Was,not ;'ettsY to. make ',.the

the ,unknown dePtbs, below. The snow-crust
on the side of the hole I had made broke away::
beneath: my arms when -I-first 'tried to raise
myself °nit, and it cost us all a long struggle
before 'Was hauled out and landed safely.
The 'Slopes ,now steepened, the cold grew ,
intense; and,the wind almost unbearable.; so
that altogether the prospect Was far from cheer
ing. The morning star aroused us to, -a tem',
porary enthusiasm by the strange accompani
ments and brightness of its rising. Heralded
by a glow of ' light, which made one of the
party exClaiiii: "There comes the sun !" it leapt
tOrth with at sudden splendor from amidst
the flashes of lightning playing in the :dark
cloud that • lay below, shrouding the distant
steppe: The shtick was • but 'iriornentary,'and•
we soon relapsed , into a state of icy despair;--
whiek was not diniinished .by the sudden de
sertion of Paid,l_Who,L fairly beaten by the
intense cold,,turned and fled down our traceS.
, For hour after hour we went on without a halt,
hoping that the sun would bring with it an
increase of warmth. A sunrise viewed front a
height equal-to that of the top of Mont Blanc
LS a scene of unearthly splendor; of which

flooded us with a stream.of golden rays, which
were , soon merged in the dear light of day:,

ORIENTAL, L 1 E
,IN LITTLE;
During the couple of centuries marked by
the career 'of the East 'lndia 'CoMpany, and'
especially, dining the' second' of the two cen
turies, many, odd - s
.and ends,collected -in, the,
East were transmitted to London, and there
placed in, spare rooms in the .. old East India_
];louse—now replaced by a cluster of, commer
cial chambers.• When there- was enough of
these miscellaneous objects to merit the dignified
name 'of a Muieunr; an order from a director of.
the company Would admit a visitor Or see it ;
but at a later date a more liberal plan was
adopted, by admitting the public generally for
three hours on Saturdays. You entered the
central vestibule,; you • Wound about two or
three Passages,' and ascended forty-stairs; and
then you found " six 'or eight, rooms, very
scantily supplied with In these
rooms the curiosities were stowed, some in
very.dark corners, and some on shelves too
high up to.be seen ; but there was wherewithal
to whet one's interest in the doings and the
.products of the East. Iti 'some proepAß of
time came' the Mutiny, and Its consequent
fierce encounters ;,then the virtual extinction
of the great.company ; next . desolation of. the.
old East India house ;and the final demolition.
of the building.. The removal of the Museum
being necessary, an artangetnent was made
with the government for the use of Fife House,
Whitehall ; and there the Museum • was open
to the public for seven Years. Towards the
close of what may he 'Called the Leadenhall
period, the directors had increased the number'
of hours in the Year When the2eolleetion was
open for public inspection, ,to four' hours in .
the day on two days in the :week ;, and •• when
the 'transference to a new•house was completed„
the facility was fruther increased to six hours a
day.on three days in the , week. Then Caine
the building of the new India Office: a' sort, of
twin brother of the new Foreign 'Office.. In
.this new India Office, some, at least', of the
contents of the INluseiun are now deposited. '
To see the Ilindir at/ hone is perhaps the
most instructive part ofthe Museum; to see
him surrounded by the material requisite for,
his' daily existence. In regard to- , his trade or
employment, we find models of loonis, plows,
Mills, smiths, bellows, windlasses, pestles and
mortars. ,-In his.traveling appliances -=we-find;
the gorgenus howdah, the lazy-. palanquin, the
dak postcbalse, and the rude cart, his
culinary and table arrangements, very, marvels
of simplicity, we have the hand-mill with which
the women grind the corn ; the pans for parching
the giant and the rice ; the dough-trough for
making Ale cakes; the suspended crock for
the boilings and steamings ; the bits of skewers
that serve as a substitute for - the roasting-jack ;
the vessels for,drinking; which' ,Muet, be used
exclusively by their owners, under pain •of 'loss
f caste by pollution from •other lips: The
little -models, constructed by 14mhz:fingers, are
especially valuable as illustrations of this kind,
seeing that, they represent at once the peeple
and the implements., The, tailor, is shown,-
exactly as he sits while making - or mending a .
garment ; the shoeniakerhas his own traditional.

If ive - Wish to knew the infinite mpabilitles, of
a quadrangular piece of cloth as a garment we
may learn something from the Scotch 'plaid,'
and something from the Spanish mantilla, but
very much , more from the Ilhidu pugaree,

nine yards long, by a yard , and a half wide. I
Of . conrse there are other garments ' made up '
with the aid of the scissors and needle, such as
the taj or small conical cap r ; the col, or cap with
a knob at the= top ; the topee; or' large and ,
elegant state cap ; the long Calico coat ; the
paejama, or trousers for both'sexes ; the choice,
or closely-fitting bodice; the peskwaz or skirt.
' It is Also interesting to, note the extent to which
the native dyers and weavers and calico print
ers < bate been able to' produce- pattem, by
ks
means of striks, chee, spots, twills, chintz
glazing, embroidery; and fringe work. As to
muslins, it. is Marvelous what the fingers of
the Iliudu are able to accomplish... Dr. Forbes
Watson, a few years ago. caused the finest
known specimen ,of. Demi muslin to be
examined by the microscope ; it was found
that the thre,ad which the =weaver employed
was only a. seven-hundred.ond-fiftieth part of
an inch in thickness; that is, seven such threads,
laid side by side; would be less than a 'hundredth
of an inch in width. Each thread contained
about nine of the ultimate cotton filaments.
