• SABBATH READING.
TUE DEMOCRACY OF TILE BIBLE.
BY,GRAYDEARD
[Per The Press.)
That Democracy should be popular with the
Masses of intelligent mankind everywhere; is not
at all surprising, when we consider that under the
sway 'of aristocratic rule the happiness of the
many has always been sacrificed to the licentious
tyiannyef the few. Democracy, technically de
fined, Is "government by the people," as contra.
distinguished from forms of government in which
the Will of the people is not represented. As,
however, the drowning virtues of a Democracy, or
a representative government—which, to all prac
tical purposes, amounts to the same thing—are that
it mitres Wail - at equality of rights which, under
every other form of government, is denied them,
end that it thereby secures to its subjects the
widest possible personal liberty consistent with
the !titbit° gdod, the &reef may be' substiftited for
the cause, in whiekeaso Democracy is at oneO pre
sented to us as that justly popular element which
Prompts every man to respect the rights of his
fellow-man ; to acknowledge merit wherever it is
deserved; to respect the man because of Ile manly
qualities, rather than his wealth; to attribute
superieiity to superior virtue only, and to own no
sovereign in the universe but God.
.To undertilkelo"prove that this desirable state j
of things is more
. nearly realized in this free lend
of ours than in , any other on !leaven* toostool,
would ben work of supereregatioc ; and yeti it
weld certainly be the height of ungrateful ne
glect towards the Author of all our:blessinge for or
not to acknowledge our indebtedness to the Bible
for whatever advantages we may enjoy over lands
less favored in their politioal t social, and religious
Institutions. Deep _down in the foundation of this
Republic was laid the oorner-stone of this dovout
recognition. .7 The pilgrim ao he-topped forth from
the May Flower and kneeled upon the rook of Ply
mouth, did it no more ecirtainly - under the con
oclounneoc of having left hie native chores to es
cape
,the han of civil and reitglous • latole
ranee,_ thea. be, did it with the vow la hie
heart:to honoißod in his nary home, by adopt
ing the teaohlogs of the Bible as the
fundamental rale of his future intercourse with
men. A God•fearing, a Bible-loving, and hence a
law-abiding nation of men, was thus developed.
Every step
,towards the consummation of this
righteous liberty among Men was marked, with
the Christian recognition, that the' Cod in whom
thay put their trust was the Laid of glory. "Hap
py is that people whose God is the Lord" was the
language of their every act ; • and if the divine
truth, that "righteousness exalteth a nation,"
hue ever found a hearty resi:onse in the souls of
men, it was among those pilgrim pioneers and
their children who founded this Republic. Well
may wo revere the memory of, that band of Chris•
Can heroes, who in the darkest hour of our birth
as a free and independent people—when the world
may be said to have been in labor to be delivered
of the Arius of a national liberty that had long
been maturing iri,the ,womb of the thirteen colo
nies—forgot not to how 'in humble prayer to Him
whose throne is in the &arena. A.h! that first
prayer in Congress, after Independence had been
declared, what a baptismal halo it oasts around
that deed of deeds—only second, in,the importance
of IM results upon the destiny of the raeo, to the
Saviour's advent! .
et every turrhdo we see some ominous tri
bute to Bible truth ineorporateit in tho motives
and plans of the founders of our Government.
The mottoes of inspiration were adopted u the
watchwords of our Incipient liberty, even long be.
fore it was sufficiently matured to be heralded
throughout the earth. That ominous inscription
from the twenty.fifth of I,evitiod6, "Proclaim
liberty thro . teghout all the, land unto all the in
habitants thereof!" cast as a motto upon the boll
intended for the State House steeple, as early as
,the year 1752, nearly a quarter of a century be.
'fore it was notually used 'to echo the triumphant
Sultirnent,of this prophetic inscription throughout
,the land, will stand forever as one of the !nest mar
,voll.nss and pleasing coincidences in the record of
;any nation ; and yet, had it not been for tho foot
that similar mottoes were' engraven upOn the
hearts etrthe nut of that age, the bell and its in.
IrlpUon could at most hare been but " as sound
is brass or a tinkling cymbal

`he people of their equal OVAL The undue and
_ _
Amintious desire for office, instead of a more ar
dent zeal to evince our patriotism by acting the
Partbf good citizens in private life, has always led
to unfortunate results. It was this orafty and
corrupt strife of the few to obtain, through foul
means, the mastery over the many, that hastened
the decline and ultimate fall of itorne. Amongst
Ithe Jews the shameless stratagems employed by
Ambitious aspirants tO the sacerdotal dignity, who
coveted the, priesthood more from avarice than
zeal for religion, were the canoe of many of their
meatest misfortunes, and doubtless' had much to
5 with the ultimate ruin of that once chosen peo
ple of God, and it is not unsafe to predict that no
nation, however firmly it may be founded, can al-
Waya withstand the tide of this undercurrent of
self-aggrandizement when it once. acquires the I
power of defeating the popular will.
" Where the spirit of the Lord is there is liber
ty," "wrote St. Paul, and never was divine truth
more explicitly stated. With the spirit of righte
ousness carried out to the letter, liberty would be
so perfectly adjusted that the restraints of human
law would be unnecessary; bul, bow was that
spirit of liberty inaugurated ? Certainly nothing
was ever more unsparingly denounced by the Sa
viour of men than their undue aspirations to places
of power and distinction. Ills lessons bearing upon
this point are almost innumerable,
Instead of countenancing in any respect an aris
tocratic 'assumption of social or civil superiority,
He rather exalted the humility of servitude. Him
self, although a part of the divine Godhead, count
ed it no dishpnor to wash the feet of his disciples.
" Whosoever will be great among you, let him be
your minister; and whosoever will be chief among
you, let him be your servant," is the language of
Christ: "in 1,0n6r, preferring one another," woe
the motto reconimended by, the apostle. Not only
was this virtue of unostentatiousness repeatedly
set forth and commended, but in one remarkable
instance we find it laid down as the legitimate,
road to future preferment; hero is the substance
of the Statement ;
'When thou art bidden of any man to a wed
dingrait not down in the highest. room, lost thou
be re9uired to give a' more honorable man thy
place; but when thou art bidden,to and sit down
in the lowat room ; That when be that bade thee
oometh, he may say unto thee, friend, go - up high
er ; then shalt thou have worship,':, &o.
This Is a most beautifutembodiment of the prin
ciple or preferment on the score of merit, and em
braces, with the quotations already referred to, the
whole ground of what was stated in the beginning
as constituting the
,iillhot; and substance of true
Democraoy.
That .very muole for which the shield of De
temoraoy is ()tainted fails far short of the Christian
basis of Democracy upon , which eur fathers based
the magnificent structure which we have in.
limited, is, indeed,' to be regretted yet. thanks

ton, pastor of Nazareth - Methodist Episoop tl
Church, having been requested by the Rood
Will Engine CoMpany, through ite President.
Wm: J. Pascoe, Esq., to preach, sermon for the
special benefit of •firemen, responded in a nest note
of acknowledgment under date of the 11th
and froth which we are permitted to girdle the
public the following
In view of the /act that firemen are tcss fu
quentty made the eubjeote of undeserved Gentler°
and abuse, Mr. Reston quaintly remarks in his
letter that, in his opinion, time might be better
employed in saying good things To them than In
saying hard things of them
Deeply sympathizing with the firemen ass cues,
and acknowledging that 'their duties are such as
often to place that brave and indispensable portion
of our follow-citizens in a felon position, he. has
generously volunteered (without any oxpeneo to
the Department) to preach a sermon' to the
firetnea of this city, at the same time &sig.
' noting, as the most suitable place for
each an occasion, National Hall, Market
street, below Thirteenth street. The Hall has
already been secured for that purpose, and the
sermon may bo expected on a Sabbath evening
eon, although the committee whisk has been rip
pointed to complete- the necessary arrangements
with Me. Heston have not jet fixed the time. The
desire 'of the Good - Will Company is to enlist the
interest of firearm general* in thle-AltiV,etur t lit ,
feeling assured that the occasion, if earriedtixt ak
Mr. Heston has expressed a wjah that It should be,
cannot but prove highly interesting.
The plan of arrangements recommended is to
commenee the services precisely at 7 o'clock ; the
different companies to leave their respective houses
so as to arrive at o'clock, each company
coming in a body, and to be announced (rpm the
platform by a committee as they arrive ; the whole
to remain standing until all are in thellsll. -An
effieient choir has already beam
,engaged for the
occasion, Mid, we have no douhtin prove both
interesting", and profitable. The firemen, and-ear
citizens in general, will await it with a great deal
of pleasure; and We trust this contemplated spirit
ual repast will carry with it an undying record of
good to all who may participate in it. .
INCREASE OF CIIAPLAINI3 IN TII6 NAVY-AND
ARNlr.—The religieue community is 'daily becom
ing more fully awakened to the importance of this
movement. A meeting of the clergy of this city
was held on Monday afternoon of this week, in the
lecture-room of Dr. Wadsworth's Aura, for the
purpose of making the necessary preparatory ar-,
rangeutente for the meeting to be held on Monday
evening next, at Jayne's Hall. The design intend
ed to be consummated le to increase the number of
Government chaplains. Disavowing anything that
would favor the union of the Church and State,
the gentlemen engaged in this movement feel no
hesitation In saying what they believe to be a
strong conviction in the mind of the American pee
ple, via: that for cur national freedom-and pros
perity we ere mainly indebted to the prinolples and
institutions of the Christian religion. They say
that the system of chaplaincies was introduced by
Washington himself immediately upon taking
command of the army of the :Revolution, and was
maintained by Congress throughout that glorious
struggle ' and that inasmuch as the annual expense
'of keeping it up hate never exceeded the sum of
$lOO,OOO, and now that the present number is ma
nifestly inadequate to the nation's wants, there
, should be no objection made to this increase. The
meeting to be held at Jayne's Hail on Monday
evening, we understand, is to bo addressed by four
able apeak ors from as many different religious Beet*,
and will doubtless be largely attended.
SABBATII-SCIIOOL AeSOCIATION of PIIII,ADEIL
rote.—The meeting held on last Monday evening,'
In the Santomoitreet Baptist Church, announced in
Tun Pares a week ago, was not eo largely attend
ed as was desired, owing to the extreme incle
mency of the weather. The eiteot of this meeting,
as etated by the chairman, MeNteorge 11. Stuart,
was to take council together and devise means for
,enlarging the usefulness of this Important hue
iliatyaf the Christian Church. Thera were dele
gates from sixty-five schools present on thle occa
sion From the statement of Mr. Martin, general
superintendent of the association, It appears that
the number of mission-schools connected with the
association is fifty, embedding nearly four thousand
:children and five hundred and ten teachers. Forty
one of these mission-schools are sustained by thir
ty-two of our: churches, the remainder not being
oonneeted with any church. The fact that there
were still some thirty thousand children in our
city without the benefit of Sabbath-Wheel In
:qv:DM ion was considered a saillele. ,„`..
neentfinwlatirs‘- triende of the
I difsr.l.4.es , ,f '
— Branch.—Siiiar meetings have been recently'
held in this oity, for the purpose of eliciting state--
1 meets respecting the field occupied, and the ne
' tare and results of the work performed. Bncour
aged by the interesting results of these meetings,
a more general painting for this purpose was
held in the Third Reformed Dutch Church, earner
of Tenth and Filbert etreets, (Rev. William J. IL
Taylor, pastor,) on last Tuesday evening.
The system of oolportage, and its present doings
in this State, was reviewed at some length, and re
vealed facts of deep interest to our business, as
well as our Christian community.
lIIITTONWOOD STREET Cnuacn.—The congrega
tion worshipping in the church, Buttonwood street,
above Fifth, Rev. T. J. Shepherd, pastor ' him,
under their present pastorship, progressed flatter
ingly, if we may judge with any degree of cer
tainty from external evidence. They have just
embellished their commodious edifice with an organ
at a cost of $1,500, and as we had the pleasure of
being present at its recent opening, and hearing
its rich peals of religious melody under the hands
of several able performers, we have no hesitation
in pronouncing it a fine instrument. In addition
to Ole mark of prosperity, their debt, amounting
to 0,500, we learn hue been paid off, and withal
the salary of, the pastor has been increased to one
half more than that on which he was called;
which latter Is certainly no unmerited tribute to
eo faithful it spiritual servant of his charge. It is,
doubtless, pleasant for the Reverend Sumottun to
have thus attested the love and confidence of his
devoted flock.

[Correspondence of The Presa I .
SAN FRANC:WO; Doe. 17, 1857.
The expressed objects of the present expedition
were these : First, the 'Harvey of the line of coon
try lying on and near the 55th parallel of N. let.,
and situate between Fort Defiance, in New Mexico,
and the Great Colorado, at the supposed month of
the mojave, with a viers to the °engem:Don of a
wagon-road from our Western settlements to Cali
fornia, shorter and more desirable then those now
traversed by emigrant trains. Stiormd, to test the
adaptability of the camels (already imported by
the Government) to oar climate and country._
Leaving Philadelphia on the lath of May, Lieu
tenant Beale. with the majority of his party, pro- :
ceeded to New Orleans, and from thence by,
steamer to Indianola, Texas
The necessary arrangements fur the journey
having been completed, the tratta started for San
Antonio, where they arrived dn the 16th Of June.
Leaving his party encamped OP the Leon, Lt.
Butte continued his way to Camp . Verdi, lowhlch
place the rentals had been eenveyed,,frout the
coast, and accommodations prepared for them' by :
Major Wayne, U. 115; A. Having discretionary
orders with regain' to them hors the Secretary of
War, ho selected twenty-two camels, and three
dromedaries, which he considered a auttlelently
large number. With them he engaged a Turk,
two Greeks anal two Arabs, in the capacity of pack
ers and drivers; the last t wo,: however, left,the ex
pedition at San Antonio, being anxious tO return
nom.
On the 25th of June the train storied on its way
to El Pain, the camels carrying the corn for our
mules. During the march from San Antonio, they
proved themselves capable of much harder service
than was required, bearing their' heavy packs
easily, and without complaint or fatigue. They
kept pace with the wagons, anal seemed quite as
contented browsing upon the mesquite bush, on the
barren portions of the road, as feeding upon the
rich gram of the Doudo,or Verdi. Incapable of
being stampeded, and requiring no care, they are
as much less trouble than mules as they ate their
superiors in strength and endurance.
Passing the well-knownpoints on this road,
they came in sight of the Rio Grande on the 23d
of July, and descending into its One valley, found
grass in abundance. Continuing on the road running
on the eastern bank of the stream; they passed El
Paso a few miles to the southward, and reached
Albuquerque on the 10th of August, having seen
throughout our journey along the Dol Norte, a
fertile anal beautiful valley, filled with groves of
magnifusent cottonwood trees, and affording sub
sistence to immense flocks of sheep. Albuquerque.
a Mexican town of no very prepossessing appear
ance, is built of adobes, anal is the depot of
United States military stores for the troops in that
quarter. Like all other places of the same kind,
its size appears leis than it really is. The popula
tion is kbout 6,000, the majority of whom depend
upon the army for support
As the baggage land materially decreased in
weight and bulk since they left the coast, Lieut.
Beale turned over to the quartermaster his useless
wagons, and with the rest, crossed the river, and
took the road to Zuni. Passing over the gently
s undnlating plains, intersected occasionally by the
mountain spurs running through thieportion of
New Mexico, they reached the Pueblo of Laguna,
presenting all the characteristics of the Indian
villages of this country. Like Albuquerque-Tome
and tho rest of the towns upon the Del Norte, it
is constructed of adobe blocks—instead, however,
of building the houses one-story high, the Indians
of Laguna raise theirs one above the other, in a
pyramidal form; the ascent from one room to
another being made by moans of a ladder resting
upon tile parapet below; the dwellings are piled
together in a strange irregular Style, and though
entirely devoid of beauty, hare much that is ran
guilt': and picturesque in theli form. Tho
lion was now upon the route of Coronado, whose
journal gives the Brat account ever published by a
European of this country. Continuing upon the i
road now scarcely discernible, they reached the a
new town of Zuni, lying a few miles to southeast
of the ancient ruins of that name. Crossing the • 1
Rio Frio, they awaited the arrival of Col. Lever
ing's command, then at Corcro.
The Piseado, a small stream of cool and delicious
water, upon which the train ku at that time en
camped, runs through a valley covered with a
sheet of lava, It has evidently poured from the
crater of 150010 extinct volcanic mountain in the
vicinity, anal rolling down the gorges, burst into
the vale, and there sprepd entirely over it, pre

Leaving the expedition to proceed, Lieutenant
Beale and Thorburn, U. 8.N., made 'detour toward
the northward with Cul. Levering to Fort Defiance,
in order to procure the aeon given him by the
Secretary of War.
They had now reached the southern part of the
Navajo country, a region more beautiful than any
yet traversed. Interminable forests of lofty pine
trees cover the mountainsides, and the long slo
ping valleys seem ever green with that grass moat
highly prized by the pioneer, (the gramma.)
On the 231 of August, the train emerging from
tbo dense forest that clothes the back-bone of the
American continent, passed down the elope on its
vrestern side, and encamped at the base of the cele
brated El Moro or Inscription rock—so-called un
account of Its sides being covered with fumes and
verses of various dater, some of a century ago, oth
ers more recently inscribed.
This remarkable natural monument 6303, with
out any previous indication of Its existence, 1000
feet above the level plain extending along its base.
Ire sides are perfectly perpendicular and smooth,

Sloping from the Poulbwoat is n plateau leading to
the western entrance of the mountain, which forms
a natural corral of great sine, and evidently impreg
nable to the aboriginal warriors, who doubtless
lived through this country. Riding into It, they
found growing within it the largest pine trees,
whose heads are far below •tbo crest of the rook
which rises above them.
The party from this point proceeded to the Fie

Fort Defiance lie with his escort arrived on the
28th. They then travelled to Zuni, where they
spent a few days trading with the Indiana for corn

liFrom this point the expedition traversed Lt.
Whipple's trail, and found in every eamping-plitee
plenty of fine grass and water. They passed now
over a comparatively level country, occasionally
Airting ranges of mountains of volcanic origin;

The expedition came in view of the Little Colora
do on the 2lth of September, and on the 6th arose-
rd it without difficulty, though the river woo swol
len by recent rains, and its northern bank very
deep and boggy. It is very narrow, winding, and
muddy, with very little timber on its hanks.
From the point where the party left the Colorado
Cliiquito, they may be said to have passed over a
country before unexplored. Though the features,
except to a geologist, presented no change from
those already witnessed, the same wave line was
perceptible In its plains and volleys, and the same
irregular black serrated mein tains of metamorphic
rock were often visible. They encamped at a con
siderable reservoir of nater, to which Mr. Beate
gave the name of King's Creek, and from that
point ho despatched exploring parties in various
directions.
. . -
In ono of these, led by Lieut. Beale himself, they
discovered what was believed to be the celebrated
(Wien of Aubrey, and described by him in his
notes.
The natural peculiarities of this part of our
route are worthy of remark; the palhande ft,rma
tiona crowning the suuunitv of the mountains era

instances, having been seen turned to stone; and

feet above it

They reached the (treat Colorado on the 19th of
October. Its valley resembles that of the Rio
Grande, except that it is wider and its mountain
ridges higher.
Being in the hnmediato r Molly of the Mojave
villages, our camp was full of Indians, who traded
their corn for our blankets, beads and other art,

The passage of the river was made without diffi

breadth.
The camels here refuted the opinion commonly
entertained of them, vis: that they are unable to

M etterread by Mr. Brown, as follows :I —--

I am a stranger to a father's joy; it cannot be my

she is too weak now to break the subject to her; I

I went to my brother by the first train ; he met
me in the hall at the boarding-house, at Mrs Leo
nard's ; I found him as I had never looked on him
before—a living picture of wretchedness—soiled
linen—dishevelled hair—unahaven face—and a
grief-worn countenance; he folded me la his
arms ; throw his head on my shoulder and yielded
to a paroxysm of uncontrollable grief ; his first
audible words were, "Mary, oh Mary, what shall

plied "No, not now, you are not in a condition to
decide properly, and we wilt do nothing rashly;
take a night's rest, compose yourself, and In the
morning we will be able to decide the more coolly;"
he then entered her room, and returned, saying
that she wished to see me ; we entered her room
together, and as I approached the bed
side, she exclaimed, " Mary, oh, Mary! can
you forgive me for having so deeply injured your
pure-minded and open-hearted brother Tom has
been an honorable, true, and devoted boohooed to

will you forgive me ?" I told her that I was ready
to forgive--if she had sinned, sbe had offended a
higher tribunal, a greater than man—that she
must first seek forgiveness from Him ; she replied
she had, and she thought God had forgiven
her ; I then inquired of her whose child
that was lying by her side? to which
she replied, "Carter's, it is Carter's"; I then in
quired " whether it could be possible ; whether I
must believe what she had told me; " to which
she replied with great solemnity, " Before (led.
Mary, I tell you what I expect to say to Richard
Carter, and John McCauley, my father, face to

first ask me whether he should not get a divorce;
and shortly after he would say such was the
strength of his attachment to his wife, that he
didn't see how it would he possible for him to
leave her, adding, "Oh, had she but told me the

with him." After deliberation my brother con
cluded that his confidence with his wife had been
so sadly shaken that he could never more live
happily with her; and the only honorable repara
tion left him was by obtaining . a divorce, which
he concluded to apply for; knowing the intensity
of his affection for his wife, I inquired of him
whether ho was quite sure that that was tho only
alternative; that having once determined on sue
a course of action, he must never for an instant
swerve from it afterwards; oa the morning of the
day he left the city I stepped into the street on
