' JAMES BRYSON, JR. . ,THE BEAUTIES OF BIBLE LANGUAGE If we need higher illustration not of the power of natural objects to adorn language and gratify taste; but proof that here we find the ;.highest. conceivable beauty, we would appeal at once to the Bible. Thoae most op posed to its teachings heie'acknowledged the beauty of its language, and this is due main Iv to the exqusite use Of natural objects for illustratim It does indeed. draw from every .field. But when the emotional nature was to be Bpi:waled tp, the reference was at once to natural objects, and throughout all . Its books, the eters, and flowers, and gems, are prominent as illustrations of the beauties of religion and the glories of the church, "The wilderness and the Solitary place shall be glad for theta, and the desert: shall rtjoice, and blossom as the rose' Themountains and the hills shall break forth before you in singing, and all .the:trees of the field shall clap . their hands.`.:lnstead of, the thorn shall come up the . fir tree, aid. Instead of the briar shall comettp the myrtle The power and beauty of the sane objects appear in the Saviour's teachings.. • The fig and the olive, the sparrow and the lily of the field, give peculiar force and - beauty to the great truths they used to illustrate. The Bible throughout is remarkable in this respect. It Is a collection of books written by authors far,reinOved from each,other in time, and pbxce,"and mental culture, but through out the whole•nature is exalted as a revela tion of God. - Its beauty , and sublimity are appealed to to arouse the emotions to reach the moral and religious nature. This _ ele ment of unity, runs thro o gh all, the _books where reference hinatute can be made. One of the adaptations of the Bible to the nature of:man. is found in the sublime and perfect representation of the natural,world,.by which nature is ever made to proclaim the. clutrac ter and perfection of GNI. No language can be' written that so - Cterfectly 'lets forth the grand and terrible in nature and its forces, as we hear when 'God answers .'Job out of the whirlwind. No higher appreciation of the beautiful, and of God as the author of bean ty, was ever e: reseed than when our Savi our said of the Mies of the field : • "I say un to. you that _oven SOlomon,in all his liorY, was not arrayed like one of v'T an then adds +tqf God: so clothe • the kram , of the fleld”--aserlblog the -element of beauty- la every leaf and opening bud to the Creator's llisili and power.—iPaor.

It begins -with the quarrel of Agamemnon and Achilles about a captive girl, .in the ninth year of -the war- Achilles in anger. with draws from the. Grecian . camp... , A series of battles followed, in which the Greeks, de prived of their swift-footed cbstripion, suf fered defeatand slaughter. In the meantime the - secondary heroes pressed forward and became the leading figures in the martial pic ture. .In separate chants, the valiant deeds Of Diomedes, Ajar, 31 - enelatis. Agamemnon. are commemorated, but the Trojans, led on by the crested Hector, drive the Greeks' own to the 'very ramparts of the•ahip,. One by one the heroes are wounded and disabled, and. the prospect of - d'a nitrous overthrow stares them in the face. Agamemnon, at length, convinced of his fatal error, and anx ious to recall the angry hero, sends, an em- bassy with the offer of emote reparation. The proposal is haughtily rejected. The war again proceeds, with varying fortune.— .The Greeks are driven within their *ails, and the. Trojans. led by Hector, threaten to fire the.ships. The battle. wavers, Hector is wounded, and the .Trojans are driven back.. Achilles at length consents that .Patroclus, ' his brother in -arms, shall put on his armor and go forth to battle., The apPearance of this champion, clad In, the complete steel of the son of Thetis,- at first strikes terror-into the hosts of Troy. and . gives heart to the Arg,lvea..- But hods slain and spoiled of his arms by Hector, and fierce combats for the possession of the tody fol low. The Greeks prevail, and besr the slain hero back to .the camp. - Achilles, over whelmed with sorrow, abandons himself to unrestrained lamentation. This calls his mother, Thetis, up from the sea.- She finds 'him prostrate with grief, yet eager to exact . bloody vengeance from Hector and the.Tro-. jans, Hector has the armor. She goes to, the smithy of Hephaistos, who readily forges a new shield of Divine workmanship, a breast plate brighter than the blaze of fire, a strong wrought helmet, without, with a golden crest and metal greaves. Achilles -receives the arms, becomes reconciled with Agamemnon. who sends him precious, gifts and restores the Briseis. After lamenting over the dead Pa troclus, he mounts the car and rushes to.the field, _careless of life,..and- longing only for vengeance. And now the war comes to its terrible turning point. 'The Trojan and Gre cian - champions are Arrayed in deadly strife, and the diiiided deities share, according to their likings in the battle As the salon ap proaches a close, the description rises in. grandeur. At length both - armies are with 'drawn from the field, -and Achilles and Hee tor atone remain.— A single: combat and Hector falls. Achilles insults the'body of his foe, lashes him to his car and tinigs him down to his tent. in the sight -of Priam and the Trojans, who gaze heart.stricken from the walls upon the dreadful spectacle. The Greeks returning to the elute, funeral games' areperformed in honor of Patroclu., _and'twelve Trojan youths are slntightered to appease his shade. Thus twelve days are consumed. Priam resolves to visit the hos tile camp and to implore of Achilles the re storation of his dead son. An auspicious om'-n inspires him with- hope. He 'departs, taking with hint costly gifts; by which he thinks to appease his vindictive enemy. He is met by Hermes, in the form of a young man. who guides hiM tothe tent Of Achilles.. The Grecian. -hero, astonished at his sudden appearance, gives'him a hospitable:reception, and overcome by pity for his unequaled woes, consents to surrender the body of Hector. It is borne back to the city; the inhabitants re ceive it with loud lamentations ; funeral rites are performed, and, so the poem closes.

Inthe even ing he spoke again, with histsual eloquence, in response to a serenade given him at the Lansing House.

The pris oner was visibly affected as the Dictor. promptly identified him as the penion to whom he.as presented in a state room on the -steamer between Montreal- and Quebec, and who was his fellow-passenger during the trip. He then began to narrate -in a clear, connected, • .candid manner, the various con versaticins.the prisoner bad with him.. An account of one of !introit's trips to Richmond was being related, when the counsel for the prisoner pretended -to misunderstand a por tion of the narrative, and sought to conluse the witness by repeating his statements in ap entirely different form. This the witness corrected several times, when at last he re sented it as an insult; and in an. impublive And very forcible manner accused the pri-ion er's counsel of insulting the Government wit:. nesse); and warmly denounced such conduct as only worthy of cowards and sneaks. This of course, took the counsel by -surprise. and produced a decided sensation in the Court Room. • The defence immediately appealed to the Court, whci rebuked the witness for his language, and at the same time rebuked the counsel for badgering the witnesses: Di. McMillan politely apologised to the Court, and then remarked that .the counsel 'for the defence had A few - days ago insulted-the wit nesses for the prosecution by saying that they ought to, be in the penitentiary, and he-be- - lieved himself as much a gentleman as either of them t The 'testimony was intensely In teresting and very dainaging to.the prisoner.

It bas heen my privilege to attend several ex aminations by our present excellent County Superintendent, and•l must say I•have never listened tci examinations better conducted.— Therei- are two points in pit - denier to. which My attention has been- directed : Ist, the mildness and- sympathy shown toward the timid and worthy ; 2nd, the summary man ner in which he disposes of the seat-ccinceited. . The sehoolsof Cressona closed on June 28, after a term of len months, with a pie nic, attended by over pupils. loge - her with many parents and friends of education.
