SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1861 Remarkable Old-Worll Prophecy; Ever eine the discovery of America by Columbus, it has been popularly believed that Seneca and Plato had plainly predicted that event, so important to the interests of hu manity. In Bacon's Essays' there is one en titled "Of Prophecies," which refets, among other examples, to portions of the writings of Seneca and Plato, which, in his time, (and, we may add, since,) were considered as espe cially bearing upon this instance. Seneca's lines are as follows Venient ant& Ftnoula serie, quibus °mantis Vinonla mum laxit, et ingene Patent Tonne, Tiploys:que TIOVOS Detegat orbes ; neo Ent torrie Ultima Thule. The literal translation is : cc After the lapse of years, ages will come in which Ocean shall relax: his chains around the world, and a vast continent shall appear, and Tiphys shall ex plore new _ regions, and ,Thule shall be no longer the utmost verge of the earth." As Ultima Thule is understood to have been the Faroe Islands, in the Roman estimation, the above indicates that the new continent was to appear in the West. Before Seneca's lines were written, Plato had narrated the Egyptian legend that, en gulphed in the Ocean, but sometimes still visible, was the Island of Atalantis—supposed to mean the Western World. Bacon, although he says that all kinds of predictions should be discredited, enumerates a great many which actually were fulfllled—as if, with the credulity of his age, he believed them, but, au a grave philes9pher, woo bound to deny them. A learned friend, whose, signature is V. W. X. Y. Z., and who need not here be named, has sent us a remarkable prophecy, said to have been written centuries ago, which seems cu riously and emphatically to refer to the present condition of affairs in this country. He pre faces the original and translation, with this in troduption The following Monkish-Latin verses (of which I have attempted a translation, with what /MOM others shall judge) are, indeed, to say the least of them, wonderful as deeoribing so accurately and minutely some of the events transpiring in our own day and country. The structure of the origi nal Latin is such (I need not tell you) as was fre quently practiced in the middle ages, more par ticularly, and in the religions houses of Conti nental Europe, and many parts of Great Britain and Ireland. Indeed, snob Leonine or Monkish- Latin verses were much in fashion front a very early period of the Christian era until the revival of olassioal literature. To what particular age or ocuntry the Leonine now under considera tion belong, it would be difficult to eoniseture. They would am, however, to be assignable to a period somewhat prior to that when the Latin language lost much of its idiomatic beauty and conciseness of expression. The elision of the vowels (the terminating vowel of one word before the succeeding beginning vowel in another word) is oleassly observed la the present versei. ' In the sixth line, the word "ejus" is to be pro nounced as though the j were absent, and some what like the English noun "use :" the no of lg.:Jew/li," in the same line, is, of course, elided in rending, as it is, moat generally "ante vocalem." As the verses have never hitherto been pub lished, (existing, as they do, only in manuscript,) I know of no better medium for bringing them into the light of day than the columns of The Press. They may, perhaps, thereby obtain as wide a dissemination among the other journals of the country as their literary merits arid prophetic accuracy entitle them to. The Latin verses, rough enough to be old, are as follows Antequam Tres Deoemque Genjuneti Trip=ant sink parte perfumed, Aquila, belli felgure strata, Dooidet stele &decimals. Qaum Sexaginta flatus aril linusque loeum ejus oeoupaverit, din= fratreo, fra.tribno sneeenfi, Mnitnm tribuent =Timm egotism. Sad si alba alba, et nigra nigra manent, Conjuneti, iteram, fanatique olarent. Quando inter Oast Gras apparebit, Nun= tins inter Gas videbit. Oar friend's translation, accurate as well as flowing, we now subjoin: TRANSLATION Before *Thirteen United Shall be thrice what they are, The Eagle shall be blighted By the lightningi of war. When fSlxty is ended And One takes its place, Then, brothers, offended, Shall deal mutual disgrace. If t white remain white, And black be still black, Onea moss they'll unite, And bring happiness back But whenever the §Cross Stands aloft 'mong the stars, They shall gain by their loss, And thus end all their wars. He has appended a few Notes, which may fitly close his very curious •communication ; * This undoubtedly refers to the thirteen origi nal United States of America. Tay mast moan when the year 1580 tenni 'mire, and 1801 begins. $ Tho meaning of this may be, as certainly as white is white, and as certainly as black is black, once more a Union feeling will prevail, and con sequent happinooo bo tho result; or oho it ay possibly convoy, under its mystic meaning, an al lusion to the propriety of letting the " nigger" alone, and leaving the white man to attend to his own affairs ; or, perhaps, of making a discrimina tion between the two races, . 6 the white and the block." This, most assuredly. means, if the Banner of the. Cross stands aide by side with the " Star- Spangled Banner; " or, in other words, if the masses of the peope become Christianized, then, and then only, shall they become a united a vie torious, and happy people. The force of the allusions must be evident to all. They would have startled Francis Bacon. *Works of Francis &eon. 'Brown & Taggart's Boston edition.) Vol. xii.

Godey gives a very pretty frontispiece, entitled " Buttercups and Daisies," which is a little more to our taste than " Heart Confessions," in Peterson's. Godey's doable plate of fashions is striking, (the pea-green riding-habit is outré In color,) but, on the other hand, Peter son's Parisian fashions, though occupying less space, are quite artietical. The face of the girl on the balmy, in this plate, is quite a study for those who like to watch the effects of light and shade. Both Magazines have numerous other engravings, which female readers will be pleased with, and also original mnsio and readable letterpress. Mr. Godey, we notice, still follows the example of Jel laby, patroness of Borrioboola-Gha. She went no farther than Africa, but he travels all the way out to Tounghoo, in Borosah.

We do not mean, by this caption, that sincere prayer to the Sov . ereiga Ruler of the Universe le not always proper, in the way of secret cum amnion, (there is a sense in which the believer is to " pray without ceasing,") but there are momenta —when other duties supersede its outward mani festations. Suoh a time was reaohed by the chil dren of Israel in the hour of their greatest peril, when, led forth from their bondage In Egypt, by the hand of Jehovah, under the leadership of MOM, they stood upon the margin of the Red Bea, hemmed In by an impassable barrier upon either hand, and the rustling host of Pharoah in the rear. In this hoar of perplexity and fear, instead of advising a prayer-meeting OH the spot, Moles le expressly commanded to refrain from any such demonstration " And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore orient_ thon unto me ? Speak unto the ohildren of Israel, that they go forward." Tne result of obeying this injunction we need not dwell upon. The lesson to be drawn from this is, that the present juncture with us Is one of action, and that while all may not be allowed the privi lege of engaging personally in the contest before as, there is a• sacred • duty deilohang upon all good citizens to be performed towards "the powers that be," and that this, loyalty should be manifested in some practical way. There is no one living under tne flag of our . eountry today, be he matt or sinner, who hes not, In some degree, sheared the benefits of our Government, which is nowjeopardized. While; therefore, disloyalty is a Crime, ingratitude is a reproach. Every , one can 'do something, either 'direotly for his 'coitiiiiy,'or for the loved ones of those who are going forth, it may be to be immolated upon its altar, in defence I of our liberties This, then, is a time for action! One of the moat thrilling reminiscences in the =trials of the Anienioan Revolution is related of General Peter Mulilenberg, whose (whet' repose in , the burying ground of " The Old Trappe Church," in Montgomery 'county, this State. When the I war broke out, Muhlenberg was the rector of a Protestant Episcopal Church in Dunmore county, Oo a Stinday rooming he administered the communion of the Lord's Supper to his charge, stating that in the afternoon of that day he would preach a sermon on " The duties men owe to their country." At the appointed time the building were orowiled with anxious listeners The dis course, if we remember correctly, was founded upon the text from Solomon—" There is a time for every purpose and for every work." The sermon burned with patriotic Ora ; every sentence and intonation told the speaker's deep earnestness in what he was saying. Pausing a moment at the close of his discourse, he repeated the words cf his text, and then, in tones of thunder, exclaimed: " The time to preach as past; THE TIME TO FIGHT HAS COME! and, suiting the action to the word, he threw from his shoulders his episcopal robes and stood before his congregation arrayed in military uniform. Drumming for recruits was commenced on the spot, and it is said that almost every male of suitable age in the congregation enliated foith- It would, of course, be improper to assume tbet ministers, or even laymen, were in all cases bound to imitate this chivalric hero of the olden time; on, the contrary, due respect should be paid to conscientious scruples, where they honestly exist. The Society of Friends, in the Revolution, although loyal in feeling, were, by their principles, re strained from entering the army ; yet Waehington was too wise to recommend their coercion. Since then, however, (we judge from the sentiments of individual members,) Quakerism has gradually grown more militant, More than year ago, the writer hoard one of their number, who etands high in the Hiokeite tchool, expreas herself publicly, that "her Quaker principles were of the Boanergea order, and that the day for unsheathing the sword was near at hand," That "order" will hardly hesitate " for conscience sake" now about entering the contest before us; yet it Should not be over looked that there are those, and that among our best and most loyal citisene, who do. It is rot probable, however, that any regulation upon such, except for contributions, will be made, while there are thousands more standing ready to re spond to their oountry's , eall than are likely to be required. For months peel, the troubles of our country have been a sort of stan-:ing theme in our pulpits, and in not a few, mutt ingenious, but evidently mistaken, Bible logic has been employed to prove that, however imminent war Peened to be, that dire consummation was certain to be overruled by Providence. But the issue is now upon us. From the fact that the news of the attack upon Sumpter did not roach us until &Midas , morning, and WOO even then by many discredited, the War question was not extensively referred to by the clergy on last Sunday. To-morrow, however, the Gospel battertee will no doubt be universally opened on this all-absorbing subjoot, and it is to be hoped that the trumpet of these " watchmen on the walls of Zion," from the greatest to the least, will give forth no uncertain sound. TORE OF TEE RELIEIOI7B PRESS The American Presbyterian T. e.), in an edi. tcrial, discussing the causes and fads of the war, says: There is henceforth room but for one course of action : our Government must be Sustained; outgo 'ons of party or of private opinion must be laid aside; all party lines most be obliterated, for all questions are now reduced to this : Shall our Go vernment be sustained ? Bhall the power given under the Constitution and laws of the land, which, under God, assure us a peaceable and galet life at home, and respect and immunity abroad,. be upheld in this emergency, or shall. civil and social order be broken up, and mob-law or military dic tatorship be suffered to take its place? Shall ihe majesty of law, in a land where the restraints of law are retreat and lightest, mid, therefore, moat needful to be maintained, be vindicated or be sacrificed? We thank God for the unanimous and mighty response our fellow-citizens, of every shade of opinion, are giving to these questions." The following we clip from the current number of The Independent : " The war is begun—such a war as we have never had since that in which Washington led our armies. It is not, like our laat, a war of corquint and acquisition. It is a war to defend the life of oar nationality, the sacredness of our Constitution, the permanence of our Union, and the being of our Government. The principle is to be established , for ever that arbitrary and armed secession is neither a constitutional proceeding nor a peaceful one; that the obligations or the Union, and of the Constitution by which it was compacted and de fined, are not to be thrown off at pleasure; that the violent subversion of a peaceful and righteous Go vernment is a game too costly for ordinary demo• gogues to play at ; that the luxury of treason must be dearly paid for ; that the lawful property of our Government, wherever situated, is as altered as any other property, and that the men who seize it, by stealth or by force, under whatever pretence of authority from revolutionary committees or eon venlione, are nothing else than thieveis and robbers, and - are to be dealt with accordingly." The Boston Paot (Oath°lio) has the following " The unhappy condition of our noble country is now expressed in action. Booming cannon end exploding . shell bare taken up the disoussion, which originated in the triumph of a political party, pledged by all its antecedents to attempt to control the industry and enterprise of the South, and to exclude the venturous portion of its people from the common territorial of the nation. For fourteen years it was a war of words, written or spoken, but it has culminated in bloodshed, and the end must be the disintegration of the nation. The slave States will all go together, with Wash ington for the capital of the new Confederacy ; but, on the other hand, it is very doubtful whether all the free btates will adhere together, for the New England States have interesteeeparate and distinct from those of the West." The New York Ultastian, Citrons* says : " There Is but one feeling now through the North It is for vigorous, energetic, and deoisive measures, not for aggressive warfare, for no one here contempletes or deeirea it, but because the best peace measure now is the exhibition of such strength on the part of the Government as will pzevent further aggressive measures on the part of the South. Deeply as every patriotic feeling has been outraged by the unprovoked attack upon Port Sumpter, we have none but sentiments of the Most profound pity for the misguided people who have been led by unprincipled party men into open' rebellion.' The Christian Chronsela of this city (Baptist) prefaces the bill passed by our Legielateire for the punishment of traitors with this comment: " We earnestly hope that it may be carried out in all its provisions and penalties to the very letter. We have about us at every step many who are indis creetly, and some perhaps unintentionally, by their conversation in public, places, giving counte nance and support to treason. We hope that they.and others more guilty will take heed to their ways."
