THYATIRA.
Fvery fact that elucidate the fulfilment of
prophecy Is worthy the attention of all stu
dent! and observing men, Tho developments
are sometimes almost startling and always in
teresting and profitable as matters of general
knowledge. This site of one of the seven
churches of Asia, was built by Selencua Nica
tur, perhaps about two hundred and ninety
five years before the Christian era, during a
time of peace. After he had achieved many
triumphs over his enemies, he iormed an alli
ance with Sandrocotbus, an Indian King, in
connection with whom ho conquered Antigo
nns m a final battle, called the battle of Ipsus,
which was fought about three hundred years
before Christ. Syria and part of l'hrygia, and
all of the provinces, finally, between that and
India, fell into his hands.
lie then built many cities and expended
large sums to promote the arts of civilization.
And among others the above named city was
bnilt a few years after the cessation of war.
The modern name of what remains of it is call
ed Ak-hicar and it is situated on the river lly
las, on the borders of Lydia and Mysi.t, on a
plain about twenty miles wide, between Sar
dis and Peragaruus. Like other cities in that
part of the world, it was sulject to such chan
ges as war and earthquakes effected until the
time of our Saviour. It is not certain by whom
the gospel was introduced into Thyatira,
whether by Paul from Ephesus, or upon the
retnrnof Lydia from Phillippi, whether she
did not first announce the glad tidings like tho
woman of Sarnaria, and thus became an instru
ment to lead the people to enquire after the
truth. The narrative ot her conversion is ex
ceedingly interesting, anl there is no doubt
but the seqnel of her life was full of interest
ing events connected with the spread of cbris-
tian?tvt. .Tbs J.-xn hnH r''-" for
rending the law and prayer,in the places where
they were scattered, and accordingly in rhil
lipi they repaired on the Sabbath to such a
place, and Paul generally resorted there to
preach the gospel. Lydia, who, perhaps, was
i proselyte to their religion, was also thera,
and heard the Apostlo, whose heart was opcu-
" ed to the truth, as her conduct alterwarda
clearly evinced.
Thyatira was celebrated for the manufacture
of fine fabric, and for the art of dyeing the
most beautiful purple. It entered largely iu
to the coloring of thj royal habiliments, and
the certain decorations of costly buildings.
Lydia had not moved to Philiipi for a perma
nent residence, bnt was there, like other east
ern merchants, only temporarily. Upon her
return to Thyatira, she may have made known
tho Gospel, and then they, as heathen villa
ges now do, may have sent for the missionary
of the cross, to preach to them more fully
the gospel of salvation.
Of the former bufliings of note there is on
ly one edifice left standing. Tho present
Turkish name of the placo lTieans The White
Castles, probably on account of Jbe great pro
fusion of white marble which ia strewsd around
and of which tho buildings aro erected. T!?ere
are eight Mabomedan Mosques in Ak-hicar in I
which tho most of tha inhabitants worship.
There aro thirty thousand inhabitants, all of
whom are Turks except about three thousand
Greeks and Armenian christians. Bibles in
modern Greek have been distributed among
them to eome extent, and they have two
churches, one for each denomination. Here,
as elsewhere, in this country, the pure primi
tive Christianity of tho scriptures is unknown,
and its claims are as strong upon the churches
of this country for Bibles and Missionary la
bor as any part of Heathendom.
The surrounding scenery of this city is ex
ceedingly beautiful. The mountains on eith
er side ranging with the wide plain in which
the City stands with their beautiful undula
tions covered with Cyprus trees, presented to
the eye a fine view of a few miles in the dis
tance, while the City itself is litterally embo
somed in trees and groves of Cyprus and Pop
lar. Ths buildings being of white marbie,sur
ronnded and overhung with the deep and pa
ler green foliage of those splendid arbor trees,
present altogether the most delightful view.
There is no place in this country would pre
sent any resemblance except New Haven or
Cleveland, and t. cy only some slight resem
blance in regard to the trees with their green
foliage. When the letter waJaddresscd to the
ancient church in this city, it would seem ".hat
idolatry was 'influential and had to some ex
tent sednced some of its members, on account
of which the judgment was threatened unless
there should be speedy repentance. But the
Divine testimony is that this church repented
cot, and accordingly the candlestick is remo
ved out of its place. Like the other places
mentioned, this is a standing monument of
Divine displeasure, and a testimony to the
Kew Testament scripture.
There is a melancholy and yet hopeful feel
ing steals over the imagination in the contem
plation of those once splendid and populous
Cities, now all dilapidated and wasted, if not
entirely overthrown and d-stroyfd. While
we linger npon tha scenes of falling cities, a
they pass away before invading armies, wojt
iag pestilence, or overwhelming earthquakes,
as direct judgment of Heaven in fulfilment of
threatlngs revealed ; we may anticipate the
advantage of the fact in futnra attempts to
"Tread the Gospel in those cities, that mona
xneuv testimony stands all around asserting
the imraal)je trutQ ot t,e 8Crij(tures; and tra

An old Carolinian once said, I was orn
the last day of the week, very late in the day,
and have always been behindhand. I believe
It would have been fifty dollars in my pocket

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.
The following waif, afloat on the "sea of
reading," we clip from an exchange. We do
not know its paternity, but it contains some
wholesome"truths, beautifully set forth ;
Men seldom think of the great event of death
nntil the shadow falls across their own path,
hiding forever from their eyes the traces of
the loved ones, whose living smiles were the
sunlight of existence. Death is tho great an
tagonist ofiife, and the cold thought of the
tomb is the skeleton of all feasts. We do not
want to go through the dark valley, although
its passages may lead to paradise; and, with
Charles Lamb, we do not want to lie down in
the muddy grave, even with kings and princes
for our bed-fellows.
But the flat of nature is inexorable. There
is no appeal or relief from the great law which
dooms us to dust. We flourish and we fade
as the leaves of the forest, and the flower that
blooms and withers in a day has not a frailer
hold upon life than the mightiest monarch that
ever shook the earth with his footsteps. Gen
erations of man appear and vanish as tho gras.'i,
and the countless multitudo that throngs the
world to day will to-morrow disappear as the
footsteps on the shore.
In the beautiful drama of Ion, the instinct
of immortality, so eloquently uttered by tho
death devoted Greek, finds a deep response in
every thoughtful soul. When about to yield
his young existence as a sacrifice to fate, his
beloved Clemanthe asks if they shall not meet
again, to which he replies: "I have asked that
dreadful question of the bills that look eter
nal of the clear streams that flow forever of
the stars among whose fields of azure my spir
it hath walked in glory. All were dumb. Eut
while I guze upon thy living face, I feel that
there is something in the love that mantles
through its beauty that cannot wholly perish.
Wo shall meet again, Ck'manthe."
A.v "orfcl draught." An old acquaint
ance of ours in the country indulges in a very
exaggerated style of description and illustra
tion, in his ordinary conversation. Tor in
stance, when describing the effect of an alter
ation of his kitchen chimney, which he had
ordered his mason to make, ho snki that "be
fore the chimney was altered, it drew the wrong
way so powerful, that every flock of wild geese
that flew over the town, for ten years, was
sucked down into his fire-place, but since the
alteration has been made, the draught was so
strong that if he should hook one cud of a log
chain in the middle of tho kitchen floor, the
othereni would stand quirtringnp the chimney.'

his son's absence from school, the school
master received the following intelligent re

In defiance of calumnies the most airooioui.aad

from the dayof its origin. Its means of serving
the pubiic h.ive been augmented in proportion.
Instead of a single editor with one or two assist

body of writers each fitted by special accomplish'

attempt was made to interpolate slave-hunting in
to its creed, we sternly r?istei that imposition;
when, at the close of "the last Presidential can

preferred to defeat their own party rather than
allow its Anti-Slavery wipg to share its triumph,
cvt-n under a conservative Chief on a Pro-Slavery
platform, we knew and proclaimed that the Whij
parly was no more. Subsequent events, including
the 1 ise and calumniation of the Know Nothing

the whole force of Pro-slavery Whigism, only con
