For several ages Christianity had been do niesticated in the mountains of Germany.— Pious and holy Moults, who crossed the s.ca, had already proclaimed die 'blessings of the Saviour throughout the dark forests. With them, civilization was introduced, together with the rational industry of the Christian. The rude country that acknowledged the faith of the Messiah, had therelbre received its share of the grace of the Almighty.— The gloom of the deep fastnesses was illumi- nated, and the sun shone benignly on the plains and ploughed field.: of the peasant.— Full pare.' corn, heavy laden fruit trees, and the sumptuous grape, trinde g,linlottohe ac- cliwities and dales. Nines, rich in copper, silver and, gold, were opened. The finger of the Lord pointed. them out, so that the peo- ple, by their means, inig,lit unite in cities and boroughs, and happily,aud without so licitude, build convenient houses for habits- on, and magnificent temples for the wor. ship of the Creator of Heaven and earth.— They lefirned, iti the bosom of devotion and prosperity, to know the happiness of peace and of the, domestic hearth. Par and wide tread the report of the quiet, well-learned, delight, and constant tranquility of the land and its enlightened children. But where there was a joyful haivest, the i.nemy of Souls sowed - tares; and out of peace he brought war, and filled With ser pents the house of festivity. He who can not mister his arrogance, will fall into the snare 01 the evil one: Man is naturally so insolent and vain in prosperity, that he treats the gifts of Heaven as if himself had crea ted them. He, in a manner, invites the'De- stroyer, and challenges Fate to combat. So it happened finally at 'the forest of Fohren bach. What the forefathers had planted and gathered under the protection of the Mos High, the heirs lavished in ostentation and pride. The blind one imagined that their superabundance would never have an end. Those in Foltrenbach 'were among the most wicked,, as they were also the richest. •Ta city was; large and more beautiful than any where beside, were the huits,of the field, and the orchard, and the vine that surround ed it. But just in proportion as the mines of the precious metals were worked, so were extravagance and debauchery introduced within its walls. Amid the pleasures of the world, God and the church were forgotten and the inhabitants, by rapid degrees, lost every thing of Christianity' except the exter nal signs, Alas - ! Form is of no avail— therehire in a corner of the world where it was least expected, there was prepared a chastening power, because tite\long-suffer- I ing of the Lord has its fixed period. The Heathen had for a-long time viewed rich Christendom with envious eyes, so he unexpectedly invaded the cottatry of the Christians with immense legions ; and the forces of ; his commanders, after successive conquests,. soon stood in the very heart of' the coveted land. The Vanguards of the Hea then forces_were in sufficient strength to be siege and surround ,the Forest, and on the open land there was nothing but murder and conflagration. The temples were pillaged. the Cottages were plundered, and the vine yards and fields laid waste. Whoever had time to escape, fled to Some of the towns yet stoutly defended, in the hope that the doom of destrbmion Might ibe averted. A savage Heathen Geiteral besieged Foh renbach, and erected.: : befoie the gates of the city, and high above - the fragments of the Cross, his abotnitiable I bring you devastation, and, the sword shall devour you,', was his i fitessage to the City Council and Commoaalty—. , resistance is death: and it you surrender, your old people Shall die, and we will take the young as servants.— You have but one means' of deliverance— forsake Christ,. and swear to our alai, and we will hold yptk_ as brothers. Nothing shall he taken from your honses, and not a hair :01Youlr- heads shall be huts. Decide quickly. J will Impw, beforethe going down of the sun, whatyou hays delemitied upon." The terms were hard, but the answer easy.; When it regards Faith and the.dignity of i Christianity, a moment is as good as are twenty-four hours. 1,%1en whose trust was Hod,would have instantly said '"No." But in Fuhrenbach there remained neither Faith nor Trust—Fear 'only lived -there. The people sat in dreminicii and riches; and should they abandon these? The seven Rulers of the City were the wisest as well as the richest of the inhabitants, and opglit they to set such an' example to the community? To turn their backs upon the pleasures of the world, and meet the dreadful punishment of death ? To reject realities for the sake'of a heavenly crown of honor, in which they no longer had faith ? These seven men did not say No! They loitered' hour after hour, and labored with the people to induce them to comply, since the flock ought to follow the Shepherd.— They idly looked for a miracle of GodL.but he works no miracles for the faint-hearted and indolent. The evening drew near, and still nearer came the Heathen band. Their arms glistened in the sung just preparing to set, but there was no angel there to combat for, those who thus gave themselves up. Thvn the, seven Itlers called the people together, and thus addressed them:--" The time has expired. The enemy is used to war, and we are weak and forlorn. 'Tis pleasant to enjoy our splendid houses and rich fields. Eternity is doubtful. Perhaps., too, Baal is the true God. Who knows?— Let us go forth and pray „to 'him. Let us set his image in the place ot,the Saviour's, whu will not help us—SO:: : Sliall we keep what we have, and be happy on Earth."— The people listened, and in answer said, So shall it be." • But into this great 'circle the seven wives of the Rulers came, leading their children. In these wives, and in their children the spirit of God remained, as in a Temple well pleasing to Ilina—arid, With anguish and tongtues as of fire, they 'said, What are ye about to do ? Swear to the Devil and mur der your own souls ? Oh !do it not. Bet- ter let the body perish, and the soul be free for God. Ye are our husbands—will you destroy us and your children with your selves? Shall we, weak women,, teach you bravery and contempt of death? Know that there is no wealth so great as to hide our disg,race, 11 you yield to the Heathen. Know that the Martyr's crown is more glorious than'all earthly delight. See to it,' that we have not to despair of our hushanils and kindred under the yoke of the savage foe." Then answered the Rulers thus What signifieSthe preaching of you; Our wives - ,3 no home to your chambers, and there mind your houses and your children=-but be si lent before the people or tremble for your punishment." The wives veiled themselves, and with- drawing with their children, hid in the.cel tars of their houses. Meanwhile, the 'men went their way—overturned the Cross and Holy Images, and opened their gates to the enemy aud. their Temples to Baal. The Heathen General entered with-pomp and power, but when he saw how glorious "everything was in the apostate city, he re pented of his promise, and then, with. sub tlety, sought a pretext to take possession of all the property, and lead captives the citi zens as servants. For this end, he ordered acensus of the whole people, and the seven wives who persevered in their Christian faith were hunted out and numbered with the rest. Hereupon the General. commanded a great sacrifice to be offered - to his grand Idol. The whole community of Fohrenbach parti cipated in this sacrifice with ‘ shamelesS pro fanity. But the seven wives, with their 'children, were missing, and when the °Ri cers of the Heathen ceremonies demanded of their husbands, "Where are your wives and 1 1 children ?"the cravens answered, "We snow i not." But the sly Heathen knew better.— They were seized in a vault, in which an aged Priesia-the only one who find not apos tatized—kept Holy Mass, and that Priest was grasped at the Altar dedicated to'depart ed Martyrs. The General then, in a rage, spoke to the Rulers You are the Niers of your city. What can yon say respecting your disobedient wines and the children of your blood, that may prevent us from seiz ing your treasures, and leading you hence into captivity ?" • The obdurate men, hard hearted as a wild.] beast against its young, yet full of dread, an swered,—"We will give our wives and children to be burned, and will pay a great ransom if • you will leave us our houses, farms and honors." At this-the Heathen and his host laughed them to scorn,. for such ignominy and cor ruption of heart was strange even unto them -yet theytook the ransom, and the people prepared the funeral pile before the city's gate. The Rulers, with their own hands, brought out their wives and children bound, and themselves laid wood upon thy pile. The wives went steadfastly on their sad way, and prayed with their .cltildrest to the Lord of Heaven and earfh;—" Forgive them, for they know not what they dci." Then, as the Sun's heat was great, a foretaste of the burning funeral pyre, they begged of their husbands their last favor.. "We are thirsty;r said they, will you order for those who loved you, and for these children, who are your otvn blood, a-cooling drinkr By the great Baal,whom ye have offend ed, you shall not drink," answered these shameless : men, and then the people shouted applause. , But, suddenly • there issued from she dry ground, just at the - feet of the wives, a clear, copious spring.:--the bonds fell from their hands and they)drank. This miracle caused the'lleathen to tremble, but die temper of the blind people became more violent. Away with them to death," cried the multitude. The - Rulers were the loudest ia, their zeal, and they kindled the The wives,with their children at the breast and in hand, were bound to the stake, and as the flames began-to - lick their feet, and the people danced about their altar of death, the spirit .of prophecy elope upon the seven victims. When the first of them opened her mouth, the executioners cried, " Let us hear your Last Testametxt, and your witch's curse." - The first said, "We curse you not. You' are miserable enough, and may God be mer cilia to you. But we say what will come Upon the land becatise of your sins.

You may take the whole population of Maryland, or any other State ; select from it fifty men who are most distinguished for tal ents or any description of: public ifiefolness, and I will answer for it they are all, every one of them, men who began the world with out a dollar. Look into the public councils of the - nation, and who are they thatialte the lead there? They are men who made; their: own fortunes—self-made men, who began with nothing. The rule is universal. It pervades our courts, state and federal, , tram the highest to the lowest. It is true in all professions. It is so now. It haS been so at any time since I have known the pub lic men of this State, or the nation, and it will be while our present institutions con tinue.
