There is no certainty about these ; and the spots regard. lug which there can-be no mistake; are so intsfesting, tliat' the mind and heart of the traveller turn away from such as are fab ulous. About the site of the t :Inple there is no doubt.; and beyond the walls one meets at every, turn assuOtice of being where Christ walked and taught, and where the gieat events .of Jewish history took place. , Let us go over what ! found in one ramble ; and then my reader will see what it must be to take walks in the neighbor , hood of Jerusalem. Leaving the city by the :Bethlehem gate, we descended into the valley of Mutton], or Gehenna. Here there are many tombs cut in the rock, with entrances like door ways. When I speak of Bethany, I shall have occasion to describe the tombs of the 1 Jews. It was in this valley, and clue by the fountain of Siloatn,tha‘ in the days of Jewish idolatry, children passed through the fire, in honor of Moloch. This is the place called Tophet in Scripture, fit , to be spoken of as it was, as an image or hell.— Here, in this. place:of corruption and cruel ty, where fires hovered about living bodies, and worms preyed on the dead—here was the imagery of terror—"the wotm that (Beth not, and the fire that is not quenched," The scene is very different now. The slopes are terraced, that the winter rains may not wash away the soil.; sad these terraces were today green with springing wheat; and the spreading olives and fig trees east their shadows on the ,rich. though stony soil. Streams were lea from the pool of Siloam among the fields and gar dens; and all looked cool and fresh in the once hellish spot. ()a the ,top of the op posite hill was the Field of Blood—the field boaght as a burial place for strangers, by theprieins to whom Judas restored his bribe. For the burial of strangrs, it was used is eabsamhent ages ; for p ilgrims who died at the Holy City were laid there. It is now no longer enclosed ; but a charnel house marks the spot. The pools all round Jerusalem are beau tiful; the cool arching roof of some, the weed-tufted sides and clear waters. of all. are delicious. The pool of Siloam is stall pretty--though less so, 'no doubt,' than when the blind man, sent to 'wash there, Opened his eye!, on'its sacred stream. The fountain of Siloam 'ls more beautiful than the pook-Jrt lief deep` in a tave, and must be reached by broad steps which wind down in the shadow. A. woman Sat to-day, in -the dim light o( reflected sunshine, washing linen in the pool. Here it was that in the days of old the priest came down with his golden pitcher, to draw water for the 'temple service; said hither it was that the thought of Milton came, when he sang of— We were now in the valley of Jehosa phat ; and we crossed the bottom of it, where the brook Kedron must run when it runs at all ; but it seems to be now mere ly a winter torrent, and never, to have been a constant stream. When we had ascend ed the opposite side of the valley, we were on the Mount of Olives. The ascent was steep—now among the tombs, now past fields of waving barley, flecked with the shade of olive trees. As we ascended, the opposite hill seemed to rise, and the city to spread. Two horsemen in the valley, and a woman with a burderon her head, mounting to the city by a 'path up Moriah, looked so surprisingly small as to prove the grandeur of the scenery.

Dwellers in our climate cannot conceive of such a sight as Jerusalem; tree from the summit of the Mount of Olives. The Moab mountains, over towards the Dead Sea, are dressed in the softest hues of purple, lilac, and grey. The hill coun try to the north is almost gaudy with its contrasts of color ; its white or grey stones, red soil, and crops of vivid green. But the city is the glory—aloft on the steep— itslonglines of wall cleorly defining_it to the sight, and every minaret and cupola; and almost every stone marked out by the brilliant sunshine against the deep blue sky. In the spaces nnbuilt on within the walls, are tufts of verdure; and cypresses spring here and there from some cottvent garden. The green lawns of the Mosque of Omar are spread out small before the eye, with their groups_of tiny gay moving people.— If it is now. so glorious a place to the eye, what must it have been in the days of its pride ! Yet in that day, when every Oh looked for the exulting blessing, uPeace within thy wane, and prosperity within thy palaces," there came, instead * the lam entation over Jerusalem, that killed the prophets add stoned the messengers of Je hovah, and whose house must be left deso late. The disciple, looking hence upon the strength of the walls, the massiveness of thetemple buildings, then springing 480 feet from the bed of the brook below, and the depth and and ruggedness of the ravines surrounding the city on three sides, might well ask when those, gtings should be, and how they should be accomplished. On the fourth side, the north, where there is no ra vine. the Roman army was encamped.— We could now see that rising grouud, once covered with the Roman tents", but to-day with cornfields and olive grounds. The Romans encamped one legion on the Mount of Olives ; but it could not do any harm to the city ; and the only available point of attack—the north aide—was guarded by a moat three walls, _The _ was_ Fong ; so long that meats hearts fail for fear, and at least one famished woman ate her own child : and at last the city was taken and nearly destroyed ; and of the temple, not one. stone was left upon another. Now we were in the midst of those scenes to-slay ! We stood where the doom was pronounced ; below us was the camp of the single legion I have mentioned ; oppo site was the humbled city, with the site of the teaple courts; and over to the north was the camp of the enemy. Here was the whole scene of that "great tribulation, such as was not known from the beginning of the world." From the summit of Olivet, we went down to the scene pf that other tribulation —that anguish of mind which had perhaps never been surpassed front the beginning of the world. "When Jesus had spoken these words" (his words of cheer after the last supper,) "he went forth," we are told, "with his disciples. over the brook Kedren, where was a garden." The garden we entered to-day from the other direculm, and left it by crossing the bed of the brook. It is a dreary place now, very unlike what it must have been when "Jesus ofttimes re sorted thither with his disciples." his a plot of ground on a slope above the brook { cock's. ed with fences of lose stones, and occupied by eight extremely old olive trees--the oldest, I should think we saw iu all our travels. Ido not mean that they 'could have been growing in the days of Christ. That is supposed to be impossible ; though 1 never could leant what is the greatest age known to be attained by the olive tree. The roots of these were supported by little terraces of stones, that I neither trees nor soil might be washed dowd the ••slope by the winter torrents. But little remains of these once fine trees but hollow trunks and a few straggling branches. It is with the mind's eye that we must see the filling up of this garden enclosure, when "Jesus oft. times resorted thither"—its orchard of fig, pomegranate, and olive trees, and the grass or young springing corn under foot. From every part of it the approach of Judas and his party must have been , visible. 'By their "lanterns, and torches, and weapons," gleaming in the light, they must have been seen descending the hill from the city gate. The sleeping disciples may , nothave heed ed the lights and footsteps of the multitude ; but step by,step as it wound down the steep, and then crossed the brook, and turned up to the garden. the victim knew that the hour of his fste drew on. By the way the crowd came down, we now ascended towards the city, turning it, side, however, to skirt the north wally Id stead of returning home through the streets. N9t to, mention now other things that we saw, We noted much connected with.the siege : the nature of the ground--favora ble for the encampment of an army, and the shallow' moat under- the walls, where the Romans brought tvro great wooden towers on.wheels, that the men in the tow ers might fight On a level with.those on the walls; and throw inissibminto Abe. town.— This scene of conflict is very quiet now. A crop of barley, was -ripening trader the very Walls ; and an Arab, with a eat, mild countenance, was Whet his water‘skine at the pool, called the sheep-pool; near tho Damascus gate- The proud Roman and despairing Jew were not more unlike each other than this Arab, with his pathetic face, was unlike them both. As' he stooped under the dim arches of the rock, and his 1 red cap came into contrast with the dark grey of the still water below, and the green of the dangling weeds over his head, our' thoughts were recalled td our own day,"and a sense of the beauty we met leek in ev ery nook and corner of the Holy Land. From this ramble, my readers may see something of what it is to take walks in the neighborhood of Jerusalem. DEATH IN TUN PULPIT.—The Boston papers notice the sudden death of the Rev.
