CUMIN IN DISGUISE. The Pall Nall Gazelle says: lf, as mane people hold, a prayer affects( less the object prayed tik thfur hitni who .uttors it, the wholesomeness of: , some., recent petitions must be something more than doubtful. Sonic are jubilant even. as those. of King David "Destroy T, au imr,adversariesr . let theur fall by dole °wort: 9 m*, ;, lo__l 4 fruirkt,, e ottl* fall upon - them • let them be cast into the fire, into. deep pits, that they rise not up again." When St. Paul besonght that Alexander the copper smith be " rewarded 'according to' his Wcirks," the unregenerate man was possibly not _wholly unrepresented. Few indeed emulate the di vine spirit •which was expressed in the prayer, "Lord, forgivetbem ' • for they' know not what they do." Indeed, -the:he, =lnnis Of the old . He brew prophets is manifest, and the so-called prayers are but curses it disguise, conceived in the seine • temper ht. which the-- . 'earteri , was wont to address leis BorSes, "Bless you! You know what I mean!" When a certain dignitary was pro moted to a high position, a prayer was offered up in his presence that "the Lord would not suffer our brother to be uplifted by 'this thy favor ;" and ,we remember a gentleman who was prayed for by a friend in a semi-public and very pointed manner as "a sinner who needed to be brought to repentance, and to see the error of his ways," and who did not scruple to answer with a Worldly " damn." But there are prayers and prayers.. Our readers are probably - aware that in the Roman Church it is the cus tom for the different confraternities to assemble at stated intervals, when a number of slips of paper on which are written the various prayers which the members desire to be offered up are placed 'tiefore the preacher for him to read aloud. On one . occasion a dozen •or more had been •repeated. They were of the usual kind. A mother desired the players of the confraternity for the safety of a son who had departed on a long voyage; a wife wished for the reform of an ,unbelieving husband; a father supplicated'for the return of a child who had taken. to vicious courses; some ardent proselytes were urgent for the fonversion of sundry friends or relatives; a girl was peti tioned for who had perused some controver sial works and shown signs of receiving the true faith. Then came a request that required all the command of countenance which the preacher possessed to read with suitable gravity. "The prayers of the confraternity were earnestly begged on behalf of a lady who had expressly ! desired not Wbe prayed for." When we read the account of the proeeed ingSat the meetings held nominally to pray for the Pope and his Council, we think the last might reasonably beg, like the lady, "not to be prayed for," at least by Dr. Cumming and his friends. For what do. these prayers signify.? and in what'sph-it are they conceived P Not\in anywhich resembles even faintly faith, hope, or charity. We' find the reverend rector of St. Dunstan's praying that "the machinations .of Rome may produce confusion, and that many people may be rescued," we suppose during the confusion ; while Dr. Cutiiiiiing'supplicates that " the day of ROme's anticipated triumph may prove that of her predicted ruin" (ride the reverend gentleman's works), "and that many may be brought out of darkness into light:" Novo /the Pope of -Rpm! has .expressly declared that he will, if only." Dr. Cumming of Scotland " will recant his errors, himself run joyfully half way to meet and embrace that personage; and the Doctor replies by calling the Pope and' his works Darkness, and praying for 'his speedy rain! If there were such a thing as a Protestant Inquisition, properly pro- vided with protesting inquisitors; it is easy to see that the days not only of Papists, but of heretics,, unbelievers, and all other defaulters wouldtbe of the shortest. And we have. little doubt that it would be safer to trust our bodies to Dr. Newman and the Pope to be dealt with according to their will, than to be consigned to the tender Mercies of Dr. CUmmitig and his followers. It has been said, too truly we fear, thatinit-for the iiidifferentists .and Gallica of this world, the, zealots in religion would soon rend each other to pieces: Well may the care less "bystander say, "See how these Christians love !" Humorous Paraphrase on Treasury Re gulations. The frauds attempted, and in many cases accomplished, by parties to deprive the Gov ernment of the taxes on tOb,icco have given rise to the most stringent regulations from the officers of the Treasury Department. There is a prevalent opinion, however, that some of these regulations are unnecessarily severe in descending to small details, not of any special importance : but it is probable that the class of complainants referred to are partial to the weed, and look upon any tax upon the article as an Infringement upon individual lights. The author of the subjoined must have taken the matter to heart with more than usual earnest ness : .";OTICE TO TO CONSI:IIEIL‘z. It is said that Horace .Greeley intends to pe tition Congress to pass the following law affect ing tobacco consumers, this winter: Tobacco chewers are requested to get their tobacco fmin first bands, which is the first man you meet who will give you a chew. Where parties are in the habit of borrowing chews, the Government will furnish each man with a note-book, in which the time of day, the sire of the quid, whether plug or fine-cut, the quality and the time when the amount is to be refunded, must be strictly recorded. Those parties who have been innocently using mistamped tobacco will call on the near est revenue officer and give in, as near - as pos sible, the amount which they believe has been consumed. The officer will then furnish the necessary stamps, and if they are chewed up in his presence the Government is then satisfied that no criminal wrong was Meant. Those persons who maliciously carry two boxes, one filled with base smoking tobacco, to. give to borroviers, the other containing superb fine cut for home consumption, are to be treated as deserving of death, and hung on the spot. No tobacco box must have more than two spigot holes in it, and the stamps must be pasted directly over these. When a quid has been exhausted, the Gov ernment strictly forbids it being thrown away until two red chalk marks have been made across it, and a label attached bearing these words: "The fellow who chewed this has com plied with all the requhements of the law, and persons are hereby warned not to chew this quid again." Tobacco consumers must constantly bear in mind that the-more stamps there are on a pack age of tobacco the cheaper does the weed be come—in a horn. The Government strictly forbids the use of those tobacco boxes having a concealed needle inside a nob on the cover, by which one forgets his desire for a chew after having the instru ment run into his thumb about a foot. The 'Goternment has witnessed, with su preme sorrow, many young men, and old men a 150,.. when they. have. observe& .aa..acquain, tance smoking a cigar, come out boldly and ask, "Have you got the mate to that?' Here after, in all such cases, the person asked will exhibit the following label, which Government will furnish on demand: "Mk me for ten cents." The Banner of Cortez: !From the New Orleans Commercial `6l -- Dec.13.1 The Picayune, in a compilation of Mexican news, lately published, had a paragtaph an nouncing that the banner of Cortez, the re nownod conqueror of the Aztecsjiad been dis covered in the municiPal-palace at Tlaxcala. This Is no discovery. it has always beenknown that the banner Was at ,Tlaseala. When General Joe Lane, in the Mexican war with the United States conducted an expedition to TelmaCan, south of Orizaba, in Pur suit, of Santa Anna, on returning to the capi tal, after passing through Puebla, he turned' to the North and took Tlaxcala in his route. The - 141 V 4et D to banner Was then known. be deposited, there in kchturch Otutbe top ,of a and steep - hill, and the Writer of 'this and several Others, Who were with General Lane, bad theTelie in their hands, were tempted to take it as a trophy of war and would have taken it but that,, the Ale.4.lde of the town and the.Podre in ehavge of the church 'prevailed upon General Lane not to allow it to be removed. Visit' of the TentieSsee LegirdMaitre to hire. President Polk. (From the Nashville' Union, Dec. 15.3 . A large ntunber of the members' 'of both Reuses of the Legislature paid a visit to Mrs. James K.
