A HORRIBLE ACENE IN A GREEK
CIIVIICII IS JERUS A LEM.
In Curzon's itisit to the Monasteries of the
Levatit, the followiom instance of gross 'de
ception and. mummery on the part of the
patriarchs of the Greek Church is related,
which was attended with the most tragic
consequences.' fir. Curzon, in company
with Ibrahim Pasha; at that time in full
sway over all Syria, proceeded to church to
see the portent of the holy fire. As soon as
the Greek Turk was comfortable in. the gab:,:
lery which had been reserved for him, the
two patriarchs; who once in a year conde
scended' to act in the same piece, performed
the miracle, and the church was instantly the
scene of the most hideous tumult ; hundreds,
of thepilgrims from every quarter—Greeks,
Armenian, Copt and Ahyssinian—rushing I
pelt melt, to light their lamps. with which
all come provided, al the holy flame just de
scended limit heaven at the prayer of those
reverend pelsonag,es. The two miracle-mon
gers had -not been above a minute in the I
Holy Sepulchre when the glimmering of the
holy fire was Oen, or imagined to appear
and sorely'lbedlam never displayed such an
unruly transport as was produced in the mob'
at that sight. But though there always is
!,ire,it disturbance, and serious acciaeais have
often occurred; the miracle of 1834 was fol
lowed by horrors ou a scale wholly unexaM;
pied ; and it is forinnete that for a scene so
monstrous weJiave the complete aril liiitrg
evidence of amEngtish geaaleman:
Soon you' sake the lights increrisidg in or)
directions, every one having lit his candle
from the holy flame: the Cf4efs; the galley
ies,and eyerreorner Where a candle could be
displiiyed, immediately appeared to be in a
blaze. The, tkople, in their frenzy, put the
bunches °flighted tapers to their faces,
hands and breasts, to purify themselves f rota
their sins. * The patriarch was car
-fled out bt the;sepulcine in triumph, on the
shoulders of the people he had deceived,
amid the cries and exclamations of the joy
which resouaded from every nook of the lin
mence pile of buildings. As he appeurtsl in
a fainting state, I supposed that he was ill;
but I found that it is the uniform custom on,
these oceasioul to feign insensibility, that
thevilgrims may imagine that he is overcome
with glory of the Almighty, from whose
immediate preAence they believed him mi.,
to have returned.
In a short time tbesmoke of lite candles
obscured every thing in the Place. and I
could see it. rtiffing in great -volumes out of
the aperture at the lisp of the dome. The
smell was terrible; and three unhappy
wretches, overcome by heat and bad air, !ell
from the upper range of galleries, and were
dashed to pieces on the heads of the people
below. One poor Armenian lady, seventeen
years of age, .died where she sat, of beat,
thirst and fatigue.
After a while, when he had seen all that
was, to he seen, Ibrahim Pasha got up and
went away. las numerous guards making a
line for him bfreain force through the dense
mass of people which filled the body of the
church. As the crowd was so immense,
we waited fora tittle while, and then set out
all together io return to our COU rent. I went
first and my friends followed me, the sol
diers making Way fur us to cross the church.
I got as far is the place where the Virgil]
Is said to havestood during the crucifixion,
where I saw dnuruber of peoplelying one on
another all about this part orthe church,
and as far as I could see towards the door.
I made my. Way between Mein as well as I
could, till they were so thick that they were
actually a great heap of bodies upon which
I"-trod. It then suddenly struck me that
they were. dead ! I liad not perceived this
at first, f0r...1, thought they were only very
much fatigued with the ceremonies, and had
lain down to rest themselves Mere; but when
I came 'to So great a heap of bodies I looked
down at them, and saw that sharp, hard ap
pearance of the face which is never to be
mistaken.; Many of them were quite black
with suffotation; and farther on were others
all bloody find covered with the brains and
entrails of those who"lead been trodden to- 1
pieces by the crowd:
At this Ludt there tVaS n'aerottd in this
part of the eloYrch; but a fink farther on—
round the corner towards the'great <toot; the '
people;` who ;were quite paroc. , strucki con
ttnued to press forward, nod every one was
doing the utinost ta escape. The guards
outside, frightened at the rush from within,
thought that:the Christians wished to attack 1
diem, and the confusion soon grew into . -a,l
battle. The isoldiers with their bayonet. 4 - 1,
killed numbers of fainting wretches, and the
walls were spattered with Wrap(' and brains
of men who had been felled,likeoren, with
the but-ends tit the soldiers' Muskets. Every
one struggled to defend himself, or to get
away, and all whit, fell were immediately
trampled to death by the rest. So desperate
and savage aid the fight become, that even ,
the panic-struck pilgrims appeared at last
to have- been -more intent upon the destruc
tion of each either than desirous to save them
selves.
For my pa't.t, as EOOll as I perceived the
danger; I cried out to my companions to turn
hatk,. Which ;they had done; brit. I thyself
*as carried on by the press till I came near
the door, where all were fighting for their
here,: seeing certain destruction be;.
fore me, I made every endeavor to get back.-
41. n Officer of,the pasha's, who by his star
was a colonel or a bin bashee, equally alarm
ed with myself, was also Hying ,to get back ;
he caught,hold of my cloak, 'or bournause;
and pulled Me down on the body of an old
man who was breathing tint his last sigh.
Ai the officer was pressing me tei the ground
we wrestled, together among the dying and
dead with thcenergy ofdespair.- I struggled
with this,man till I pulled him -down, and
happily got ',upon my legs-,-(1 afterwards
found that he never rose again)—and scram
bling over Wyile of corpses, 1 made my way
back into the lsaly of the church, where I
found My friends: and we succeeded in
reaching the sacristy Of the Catholics, and
thence the room which had been-assigned to
us by the plonks.

hundred wretched people; dead and living: ,
heaped Promiscuously one upon smother, 111
some places abovo five feet high. Ibrahim
PaSha had left the church only a feiv tainutet
before me, and very narrowly escaped with
:his life; hews' so pressta upon by "tha
crowd on all sides, and it-wns.said attacked
by 'several of them, that it was only by, the
greatest exertions of his sitite; stieral of
whom were killeil;that he pitied th 6 outer ,
court. He fainted more than onto, thi
struggle,. and I was told that some or his at
tendants at last had 19 "eta a way lbr" IltS
with their swords through the dense raciks
'of the frantic pilgrinis. ' He remained °in
side, giving orders for the reinotal - of , the
corpses, and making; his.accen. drag out the
bodies of those whoappeared to beitillative.
from the heaps of the dead. He.sent word
to"us to remain in the convent tillall 'th e .
bodies had been removed, and that .. hen
we
could"totne out. 'in safety 'he would aoniti
send to us.
We stayed in our room two hours before
we ventured to make another attempt to es
cape from jhis scene of horror, and th6a,
walking close together,"With all our serhnts
around us, we Made a bold push, and got
out of the church. " By this time most of the
bodies were removed, but twenty or thirty
were still lying in distorted a attitudes at the
foot of Mount Calvery, and fragments of
clothes, turbans., shoes and handkerchiefs.,
clotted with blOod and dirt, were stre7ved all
over the paveMent:
In the court in front of the church the
sight was pitiable—mothers weeping oder
tbeir children—the sons bending over the
dead bOdies of their fathers—and one poor
woman was clinging to the hand of her hus
band'. whose bodv,was fearfully mangled:—
blest of the suiferers were pilgrinis and
strangers. The . Pasha was greatly moved
with - the scene of woe, and he again and
again commanded his officers to give the
poor people every assistance in. their power,
and very Many, by his humaneetforts, were
menet) from . death.
I 'was much str6ek by the sight of two old
men, with white beards, who had been seek
ing for each other among the dead : they
met as I was passing by, and it was affecting
to see them kiss and shake hand's, and con
gratulate each other on having escaped from
death.
• When the bodies were removed. many
were discovered standing upright, (Mite dead;

There is. sufficient incident in the life of
this distinguished man, trona which to form
an exceedingly interesting novel. Truth is
stranger than fiction in many cases, but
especially so in this. We have seen all the
particulars of his early life; these he trans
fered to paper, and deposited in the Pennsyl
vania Librarv, in Philadelphia, where they
can still be referedici.--4itch was a native of
Newiersey and was born in the year 17-
He was settled at Trenton during the period
,off' the revolution, find manntactured_fure ! arms
,for the use Of the American soldfers. When
:he British invaded Jersey, he was•coloperled
to fly for his life. The red coats destroyed
his •workshops, burnt' his tools, and stole
his muskets. Ile sough•refugY in Pennsyl
vania, and went to Bensalem, a small town
in Bucks county, in that State. In the year
1791, he separated from his wife because she
joined the Methodist Church, a denomina
tion he new liked.
Fitch
_caught his first idea of steam power
from the turning of a carriage wheel, in 178.5,
and in Bucks county he made his first experi
ment: He manufactured his model in the
old workshop of Cole Scouts, in Bensalem,
and laid it before the consideration of Con
gress the same year. Ile published his pam
phlet against Ruinsey in 1788. 'When in
Philadelphia, he was introduced to Drs. Rit
tenhouse, Say, Bright, and Joseph Robb, Jr.,
all of whom aided him much iu his underta
king. His work against Rumsev may now
be seen is the public libraries of Philadelphia.
Alr. Fitch visited France, at the request of
our Consul at Paris, Mr. Vail, and the latter
gentleman disclosed the whole of Fireh's plan
to Mr. Robert Fulton, who was at that time
sojourning in that city:.
Thefdur pas of his , noing to France, ena
bled his enemies to ruiChim. They got from
him that which he had been so long laboring
Ito accomplish. They roblied him of the
I honor of the invention ; which has been con
sidered the greatest triumph in modern times.
Mr. Fitch came (Mt to Nentucky as a sur
veyor in 1780., and located lauds in the coun
ties of Jefferson, Nelson, Lincoln. and Fay
ette. He lived in the town of Bardstown,
and becatrie quite dissioted before hisAcatli.
We have seen it stated that liegare awnv all
his land to his landlord in consideration that
he should keep him in' food and liquor. , He
was, however; to have "sixty years of indul
gence," in which tittle fie tag& redeem
them: Fitch left two sons in Connecticut,
and has a, nephew at Sharon. Centre county,
Ohio.- ,He had left his pother of attofney
with ri Itiviyer, in Midis county, 111'1786.
This son,,of the law never did anything for
hirni and he became naturally disheartened
and chagrined. Ha took laudanum finally,
and died at Bardstown, Wheye he is now
liitried.—lLauisrille Journal of Commerce.
