SATURDAY March 7th.---CiiSudy and quite cool. have had so much beSiness to-day in scit lipg meleteers; arranging our baggage and tneving over to our present quartets, in the :house of Mr. Graham, (for tnerly Mr. Nidolayson's,)';that'we were'. kept orr rootn until noon:" A t one o'clock ice went,oter to the Church of the Holy'Sepid, e hre,. but the, iinmenc . ,e crowd of. pilgrims assembled made the mr so cb.lie that, it was unpleasant to remain long enough to' see the fabled famous edifice. -^ The number of unusually great this year, as there are al rmdy about- ten thoa' - and in the city; and multitudes are coming by every steamer to Jaffa.. The tide of pilgrims has been iasomewbat stayed during the: past three years, by the Eastern war,. but the re tern of ipeace' has opened the gates again, so that a larger number than usual -are flocking to the Holy City, hopir , here to find remis sion of all their sins..„. The making of Pilgrim, ages is, something eminently peculiar to Ori ental countriesat the present day, although there are some lioinanists who come from Pa pal Europe to visit the supposed lloly Sepul chre with the hope at receiving pardon of all their sins. The Armenians ecirrin, the whole nor thern region of the Turkish .I.lllpirre; 'the. Greeks from Turkey, Syria,'Gre,cec and the lonian Islands 'the Maronites from Mona Lebanon, and the. Moslems (tom Turkey in .1 Europe, Asia Minois Syria,.Persia, India and Africa, all having the same general object of I gaining merit by the pilgrimage, while the Jews flock to Jerusalem, anxious to die and; be buried within sight of the city, of David.. . It is one of the most interesting features of Jerusalem . at this smson, and yet one. oft he ' most painful.. Tholisands.coniehere to gain merit and work out a righteousness of their own by their own good works, forget.ing the wordS of the Gospel, "IST by grace, ye are saved through faith; .and that not of your selves ; it is the gift of poa ; not of - works, lest any man .should boast," ''Personal . riesi is something unknown in,CO . batal relig ion at the present day, and it - :.ifinost seems as though . the worst displays of Character to be found in the East, are herein what is-call ed the Holy City.- Jerusalem seems to fur nish the most striking specimens of Moslem fanatieism..and nominal christian superstition. I left the church of the HOly Sepulchre this afternoon with a feeling of satisfaction that theekerreh cannot be on a spot - formerly with out the walla of Jerusalem, and .con . seantly is a fictitious place. , so-that the real spot of our Lord's crucifixtion and burial remains pn ennt.sminated I f by, these idolatrous rites.. It was a comfort :to leave the place and. walk out to the Zion gate and know that I was on "Mount Zion' which cannot be removed."— There .are so few localitiits. of the ancient city of Jerusalem DOW identified, that it is'pleas ant to visit those. which have remained un changed said unchangeable through the lapse of ages. Only a portion - of Mount Zion is at present Within the City .Walls, a large por tion beingnow Outside the:walls on the south western side of,the .cityi The Zion Gate - is near the southwest corker of the city. In passing; to it from the interior of the city, we walked n long distance in . a witpaved, clean and ~beautiful street which (passes through - the gearter.of. the Armenian Convent. This Convent is one of the most extensivestrue tures now existing in Jerusalem, having been built and gradually enlarged, -by-contribu tions gathered from all the. Armenian corn munitiesin the Empire. It is like a.grest Hotel for the accornmodatiori : olthe pilgrims who-fioek hither every year.: Years ago, be fore the precise object of evangelical mission; Aries was known, the pilgrim% used to receive books and tracts from them durinetheir . Vis. it here, and carry these meSsongers. of light home ..With them to. all parts „of the .:land, and it is supposed that not a little was thus done toward the 'dissemination of the truth among the Armenians of the North; but of latter :yeah . since the decided.: movement Atkin - the Armenians, and the prevalence of the,. gospel among them, the priests and monks at Jerusalem have taken special care to'prehibit the pilgrims frten . porchasing or receiving the gospel or evangelical tracts, as they'are Uttered-10 them. And thus .Mount Zion, .which was once .a spot favored -of God and has become -the- symbol: for the„eiturcli itself, is now, as it were, the &Sidling place of seperstitiOn in some.of . its worm dorms. As we appreriehed . the ziuu Gate, our. auen tion was drawn toe row-of low 'Shapeless huts along the . inside' of • the city wall, stiTrieir6i resembling the houses of the nniuntain villa gescd Lebanciti. 'This is the quarter 'appro priated to the Lepera,of whom there may be a dozen families. We walked around - to see them,- when five men eame•hobbling out to Ask an alms.

How, often have I longed to see this • interesting 'spot ? Mote vivid and how, triumphantly truthful now seem the ataternents and allusions of the word of God, and how • I would delight to I have you here to enjoy with rue the s cen e ! I ' know that it would do you good, not as these thousands of deluded pilgrims suppose, be cause you would gain merit before God, or because, there is anything of holiness in the soil itself, but beaufke the word of our God, so wonderful in itself,tippeos far more won- I derful and more glorious, when we read its sublime recitals of the momentous events of sacred history, on the very spot. lb here - those events occurred. I refer now chiefly to the general impression made upon the mind by the place itself. When I look out upon the city as a whole, and know that this is Zion and there is Olivet, and there is Moriah, and there Bethany,and that no human machine tint or superstition has ever changed them or can ever change them, I can gaze and gaze again, with gratitude and delight.. But to descend into the streets, and hear thikplace pointed out as the house of Lazarus and this the house of•the rich man; this as the Place where Christ was scourged, and this the place where Simon assisted to carry the cross, and know that all of these places and many oth ers are fixed by superstition and kept up fix purposes of gain, , this wearies the soul, and you turn away in disgust,'sad to see. men the dupes of .131/ perstition, and grateful to God that he has granted 14u the light of the glo rious Gospel. T 1 )- evening we have read the 122nd Psalm, and it seems so much in accordance with my feelings that I . will copy it here: " I was glad when ..they said • unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord.
