For the stars have so decreed it,
And you cannot shun their power."

the following, from a letter of the late Lewis G.
Osbourn, addressed to a relative in this city, from
Jerusalem, under date of December 25,1859. Soon

esteemed for his noble qualities by all who knew

Mr DEAR A-
* * * Doubtless you have heard,
through other letters to the family, of my pro
gress to Constantinople. From there we took
steamer to Beyrout, a voyage of ten days; stopping
it 'Smyrna and Rhodes, and passing Palms in
the Archipelago. At Beyrout we rested three
days, for the purpose of procuring horses, tents,
and provisions for a month's journey through
Syria and Palestine. Our party consisted of four
persons, which, with our two dragomen, and out
fit, made a train of twenty horses. Our trip
throughout was enjoyed by us all—having bad clear

eipating. We left Beyrout at noon, and at the
same hour next day had crossed the mountains of
Lebanon, and entered a fertile valley some fif
teen miles in width. On the third day we reached
Baalbech, a place of no importance, exempt for
Its magnificent ruins of the TeuiPles of the Bun
sad of Jupiter. I must leaves description of
these, however, until I return, but would only
mention that I saw in the walls of these mighty
ruins stones sixty-three feet long, thirteen feet
square, and elevated twenty feet above ground.
The inhabitants, for the moat part, are wretched
Arabs, living In one-story huts with mud floors
and fiat roofs of the Seale material. Two days
later we reached the ancient city of Damascus,
said to have been founded by Aram, grandson
of Noah, and on our route passed the tradttion
ally designated tombs of Abel and Noah; also,
numerous evidences of Roman occupation at a la
ter period.
Damascus, viewed from the mountain as you near
It, is indeed a paradise In appearance. It lies In a
rich plain of great extent, and the entire prospect
Is one of true Oriental beauty. On entering it,
however, the traveller soon realizes that "all is
not gold that glitters." The streets are so narrow
as to preclude the entrance of vehicles entirely,
being usually but three or four feet wide between
two correspondingly narrow sidewalks. The ba
sun on these streets are somewhat like our market
places, and contain every imaginable variety of
eatables and wearables. While here WO visited

dally as those who have given moot attention to
the subject are usually most skeptica' with regard
to them.
From Damascus we travelled south by 'Mount
Hermon, the mouths of the Jordan, and the Sea of
Galilee—which to us would be nothing more than
a moderate•sized lake; it is about fourteen miles
long, and from six to eight in width. On its
shores are the former sites of the cities of Caper
naum, Betbssida, and Chemin, all within a dig
taw of five or six miles. From this marked
proximity they must have boon small cities. Not
a boat is now seen upon the waters of the lake, nor
a voice heard along those forsaken shores, once
hallowed by the incarnate presence of our blessed
Lord.
All that you see in Syria denotes destitution and
decay, the paralysing result of Mohammedanism.
Passing Tiberius, we reached, In the following or

rough travelling, arrived at Jerusalem, the city of
tea thousand holy memories; but, alas! how al

the church holy Sepulchre, and numerous
other pasts of interest, in which were In.

laid; the rook which was rent at hie crucifixion,
aid even the hole in which the cross stood. Dr.
Barclay, an American resident here of nine years,
showed us an immense quarry or cave, discovered
by himself immediately under the city, a thousand
feet long; also, the tombs of the kings hewn in the
solid rooks of marble. As we emerge from St,
Stephen'e gate, on the east aide of Jerusalem, we
descend into the Valley of Jehoehaphat, formed by
the brook if edron, and passing by the spot pointed
out as the place of Stephen's martyrdom, we ascend
the Monet of Olivet', visiting the garden of Oath
eemane as we prooeed—an enclosure of about one
hundred feet square, containing some half•dozen
olive trees , of, apparently, very great age. Re
suming our ascent, we reach the summit of Olivet
and the Mosque of the Ascension, within the wall
of wbioh is shown a very small enclosure in a rock,
upon which the impression of afoot is designated
as the place from whence Christ ascended into
'heaven.
Last night we visited Bethlehem, an hour's ride
south, and entered the convent walls, where, in a
beautiful church, is shown the spot In which our
Goyim was born. There, too, are shown the
places of the manger, and where the wise MA pre.
sented their gifts, all within a space of twenty
feet, and all apparently in 'a cave hewn in the
rock, making a considerable descent necessary to
reach it. The same is true of Joseph and Iltary'e
house at hiaeaveth, and the house of Ananias at
Demotions, all of which are some twenty feat be

TUR OLDEST GREEK ISIANTISCTUPT OP THE BIDLII
EXIANT.—Abont a year ago the Government of
Russia sent the celebrated Professor Tisehendorf to
the East for the purpose of instituting a thorough
search in the various Greek, Syrian, Persian, and
Abyssinian monasteries for ancient manuscript re
cords supposed to exist there, and to secure them,
if possible, by purchase. Prof. Tisehendorf has
returned to Russia, and brings with him, among
other rare remains, the very oldest Greek mane.
script of the Bible extant. Besides the Important
and valuable contents of the Old Testament, of the
same text as that used by the Apostles in their quo.
tations, the manuscript contains the whole of the
New Testament. The various European lib, .ries
all possess many MS. copies of the Bible, but not
a single one of the few written before the tenth
century that contains all the New Tota2..llit.
The two hitherto regarded as Gm 61(10Ft:hid lest
complete, and held in the highest estimn Geo, are
those in the libraries of Rome and London. But
the former wants four entire epistles of St. Paul
and nearly the half of another, as also the Book of
Revelations ; while in the latter the whole of the
Gospel of St-Matthew is miming, as well as some
parts of St. John and the Pauline Epistles. The
manuscript discovered at Mount Sinai, and now
brought to St. Petersburg, is not defective, even in
the smallest degree ; on rho contrary, it contains
two works oxen In addition, ono complete, the other
bat partially so. Of one of them, the Epistle of
Barnabas, nearly the whole of the first loaf has
been wanting until now, in the original Greek
text; whilnof the ether, only one very imperfect
copy was WO to exist up to three years ago.
The dote of the manuscript has been fixed by Prof.
Tischendorf at the beginning of the fourth century.
No other. copy of the Bible is of higher antiquity
then this ; indeed, the far.famed Codex Vatioanas
is the oily one that can at all put in any claims of
competition.

Last fall a farmer in Mecca dug a well, and at the
depth of about twenty feet, struck slaty rock, from

in considerable quantities. The well was further

Persons famillar.with the Pennsylvania oil regions
of Oil Creek say that the "surface show" for oil in

given a charming fete. Pretty women by scores
were present, and the loveliest among them was
Mad. T., always eminently "the fashion." At
the commencement of the ball, a young gallant,

first to ask her to dance. " With pleasure, sir."
replied she ;"it la twenty francs." " Madame ?"
replied the puzzled cavalier. "I said twenty
francs !" "I beg your pardon, madame," replied
he, smiling, " there is a misunderstanding ; I had
the honor to ask your hand for a waltz." "Ah !
you are right," replied the lady, quickly ; " there
was a misunderstanding; I thought you asked me
for a quadrille, but since it is a waltz it will be for
ty francs." More puzzled than ever, the gentle
man waited an explanation, which she gave with a
gracious " Do you not understand, sir, that
lam dancing for the benefit of the inundated ? It
is one louts for a quadrille, two for a waltz, and no
reduction in the price." At this rate Mad. T. had
no lack of partners, and bravely and charitably

occurring last week in that 'vicinity :
" Last week an occurrence took place which is

this country. In his last letter to the Dublin
Telegraph, ho soya:
4, For the lirst time since I mime here, I felt, on

siderable length, embellishing his theme sa he progress
ed. with oft-repented allusions to ancient and modern
history.
The second address of the evening was by Mr .
Charles Murphy, on " Practical Intellect." lle opened
by saying that man was not only a Progretaire being.but
a' being of perpetuki change. The revolving mental
sphere,. he thought, resembled those of the heateniglM.
Mee. Ms midmost' was fall of.Eurntes, tropea,amt wades,
but the general drift and thought of the address Were
;nachos). The mission of man upon the earth was
sublime, and was rendered so mainly by his possession
of intellect. tinder the ban of ignorance and supersti
tion what countless millions had teen swept into perdi
tion! With the advent of Chu/dietary there bad come
a succession of the most Important changes ; and it was
only of late that the world began to see that tt waa one
of the rnieeions of the Christian religion to ennoble
man's intellect and elevate labor. Our nationality, be
was happy to know, was free from the errors which
dogged the more ancient system,. Never bad the high
way of intellect and genius been so effectually dammed
for its gramma velocity as now. Practical intellect was
a tower of strength in time of need. The possession, by
the speaker, of a severe cold, detracted materially from
the effect and appreciabibty of his address, especially to
persons to the More remote Parts of the hall.
Mr. Edmund Wrigley was the nest speaker, his sub
ject being " Noses." This was a poem, and its humor
afforded a happy transit from the gravity of the pre
vious exercises. It was not remarkable for its poetry.
it is true, though it was not devoid of points of real
wit, and abounded in satire and philosophy. We may
add. however. that in the matter of delicacy and re
fined poetic sentiment it was doubtless not intended to
be particularly suggestive of
The bards sublime.
Whose dortaat foot/gape echo down
1 be corridors of time."
The poem was well read, and elicited marked and
frequent applause. The speaker evidently baa a fine
talent for the composition cif satirical poetry, and dis
played no small amount of originality in the seleotion of
his theme and the manner in which he treated it.
The fourth address noon the programme was de
livered by Mr. J. Milton Mays, on the " Dignity of
Labor." Mr. Mays opened with the thought, that
wherever a aurae was entailed there was a correspond
leg blessing, a position which he proceeded to establish
by oaring that the fall of man had best effected his true
relation to the material universe, and in which we bad,
he thought, furnished to us the key to the true dignity
of labor. His thought seemed to be that if man had
not sinned there would have been no work for him to do,
aid as work was neeeasary for his highest develop
ment, the so-called curse pronounced upon the race was
mrtuallY a blessing. The speech was. to some respects,
a rather novel 1181/90/1 upon Genesis. although the
speaker's comments upon the relative position which
labor bolds to science. literature. and art were forcibly
conceived and eloquently delivered. Labor heregarded
as a divine sift to man, and one that more than atoned
for the curse brought uPOS him by his first disobedience.
The fifth and last address was made by Mr. Samuel
G. Thompson, who had for his theme "The Bitter."
Although Mr. T. thus accepted the office of executing
"the bitter" end. hie speech was not any less palatable
than any of its predeoessors.
lie said he had chosen (this subject, Locum of its
familiarity to all. The bitter facts which are constantly
occurring in life it was that he wilted to considerlThe
delusions and disappointments which too often blight
the energies and aspirations of young men were the
first to receive his attention. Neglect of worth had.
io multitudes of instances. crushed it into sloth and in
difference, and thus caused
" Full many a rose to blush unseen
And waste Its sweetness on the deiert air."
The current of public opinion was a tide which but
few ever had the coa Inge 41 stem. The most noted in
evinces in the history of the world of the noble heroes
who have blest the race with their discoveries and
intellectual achievemente, and themselves been doomed
to persecutions were referred to at length, among which
the tames of Galileo, Milton, and Fitch were promi
nently introduced.
The exercises were protracted until nearly half past
ten o'clook, the audience being evidently interested to
the close, judging from the applause bestowed upon the
addresses in the course of their delivery.

Allusion wan made in my letter of yesterday, to the
(hot that Daniel Fanshawe, who died on Monday last,
was the oldest employing printer in the city of New
York. There are two incidents in him career that en
title him to honorable mention and remembrance by the
craft. He wan the first to adopt the use of rollers in
stead of balls in an taking apparatus for the hand-press,
which he did against the 117012, opposition of the
journeymen-pressmen. He was, alto, the first to em
ploy printing machines, adopting the Treadwell press,
driven by mule power. When the Amencan Bible
Society was established he became and continued its
printer until the society established its own °Mee.
He had been in 'slimness, at the time of his death, forti

Quite a_patriotio little Doane wee enacted at the Aca
demy of Music last evening, after the performance of
the second act of Sonnambula—the ringing of the Ga
ribaldi Ratestan, composed by Signor Mime. in honor
of tho Italian bgro. All the principal artists of the Aca
demy. including Bazzaniga, Colton, Brignoli,
Amodio, and J linen, end the full chorus, participated in
its execution. It Vat received with great a Minister=
and promptly encored. After the encore, the composer
was called out, and appeared upon the atage with the
leading artists. The Italian tricolor was supported by
Signor Bimini, who served under Garibaldi.
After the termination of Maretsek's unprecedented
success at Havana, on the 26th inst. he proposes to mate
a tour of the island, and return to New York via the
Prineipal anise of the South. About the middle of April
it is reported he will commence a short season at the
Winter Garden. Mrs. John Wood is now the reigning
favorite, end diverts large audiences, who come to hear
her exquisite and unctuous imitations of the leading
operatic artists of the day.
The movement of bong bakers, who a few days since
held a meeting for the purpose of puttinx down Mr.
John Hooker's enterprise of supplying the city with
Meaner bread, which he is able to do by the use of ex
tensive machinery invented by him. and now in sue
cessful operation has resulted, as all combinations must,
where mere human einews are brought into oompetition
with steam. Mr. Hacker's machine, an engraving of
which I hear will soon appear in one of our illustrated
ewes, is capable of baking two hundred barrels of
flour per day, in the Very beet manner, It has the same
advantage to tusking that it steam erase has over an old
Ramage prate in printing; and the men who make
broad by the old hand-mode bad best make up their
nitride at once for machines, or abandon their bunions.
I saw one of the entailer machines in operation to-day
at Wilson's_ great cracker-bakery, in Fulton Street. It
wee then running at the rate of seventy barrels per day,
and doing the work with a rapidity and precision that
was really wonderful. Mr. Hecker hes been many

The Rending Convention.
Late despatches from Washington oily inform
the public that the progrireme for the Beading
Convention has already been made cut 'there, and
the people's repro/mutating ment only to give it
effect. In the gut place, the delegates are to be
instructed for Breokinridge for Prendent. and in the
second plate Senator Bleier gene to Charleston as
MIS of the delegates. Who the nominee for Corer
nor is to be has not yet been determined, bat we
are graciously informed that the President will
quietly Indicate his preference when the time
comes. That the programme there arranged will
be carried out to the letter no one who knows - the
power that proepective depots marshalships carry
with them will doubt. Eitherto the people
have innocently supposedl that their delegates
were to meet together for the purpose of consult
ing on the best neuron to be pursued for the moms
of the party, and to nominate the man who would
best promote that end. If there be any who yet
labor under that delusion, let them at once die
abuse their minds of such silly notions. The Na
tional Administration has conalutied to entirely
relieve the people of all Inch labrrions duties, and
not only will the assent at Washington take care
of the people's interest" at Reading, bat also have
they prepared a platform for the Charleston C,in-
Yention. We are surprised that the masses do not
burst forth in spontaneous expressions of gra
titude at these manifestations of solicitude in
their behalf. But seriously, base net these indi
cation's of a centralization of power, something
alarming in them ? save the voters of the party,
become incapable of deciding on its principles? Is
the voice of Pennsylvania to be raised for a man
who, standing as he does upon the doctrine of a
slave code for the Territories, could not come with
in a hundred thousand of parrying the popular
vote of the State? We fear the tionolusion is a
foregone one. That there will be a bard, of inde
pendent men at Beading, as delegates, who will
raise their voices against this outrage, we do know,
but they will be outnumbered and poselblY gagged.
Our reliance, however, is on them. If they be few
in number let them remember the great
"'iterate which are scudded to their care.
Let them remember that the whole body of
the De mocrac y of Northern, Northwestern, and
Eastern States, hare planted themselves on the
doctrine of popular sovereignty ; th a t th a t -d ee ,
trine is as certain to be a portion of the Demo
eratio creed this year, as that the Charleston Con
vention meets, and at Douglas Is &Saute to be the
candidate of the party as that he exists, and let
them stand arm. Although they ho in the 'minori
ty et that Convention, the time for the recognition
of their ' wriest .in :the ri t, for the lest three
years, is approaching rapt , and let them not
ginah when the hoar of V dory ii -- darreing.—
