To the student of the Bible and Church histdry there aro few current subjects of more absorbing interest, or of deeper significance, than the events now almost daily transpiring. which point to the repossession by th e .° Jews of their own lapd. The tide of pro ,, ress after a lapse of centuries, may be said to have fairly turned in that direction, and the prayer long offered by that chosen, but now scattered people, that "Judy may be saved, and Israel dwell securely; and that the Redeemer may come to Zion," is undoubtedly hasten iUg to fulfillment. The Sultan of Turkey is encouraging Jewish emigra•ion to Palestine, and is offering to sell them us much lard as they choose to buy, and it. is said has even expressed his willingness to dis pose of the Mosque of Omar to them, which, it will be recoll e ct e d, stands nip. on the very site of the Jewish Temple on Mount Sloriah. The mosque is one of the Mahommedans' most celebrated shrines, being scarcely inferior in na tienal importance to those of .Nietea ard ' Medina. Politicians and statesmen look upon these indications as a legitimate consequence of the liberalizing influence of Mohammedan intercourse with Chris. thins, and so they may be ; bat to the reader of the yet unfulfilled pages of Revelation, they also point to ‘vhat, as it respects theJowish nation, "prophets and kings" have long waited :Or, "Ma died without the sight:: That the Mosque of Omar should be in a fair way : of passing into the hands of the people ' to whose fathers the site on which it stands was once given-in an everlasting covenant, is what no reader of secular history fifty years aga could even have dreamed would ever have come to loss. Some of the hills around Jerusalem have already become Jewish property, and it is by no Means improbable that some"of the present generation will i see the entire city of Jerusalem again in the hands of its ancient owners. That mighty revolutions will hollow in the veale of such an event is probably as Artain as that the Jews will return; at all events, affairs in that immediate re giqn of the test must ere long become an engrossing theme among the nations of the earth. An able discussion of this vast theme, and the- steps toward the fulfillment of prophecy as they transpire, will constitute a prolific field for the religious press; and those ovine mg the greatest familiarity with the subject will doubtless find their en , lightening disquisitions sought after wall aridity. A Second Tell, ta.the Mooting Line. —Mr. Fred. Whitehead, of St. Louis, is astonishing the sharp-shooters with his marksmanship. A tew dars since, Mr. T. F. Lennox stationed himself off at the distance of tcn races, and placed a common-sized lemon on the up of Lis head. Mr. Whitehead took a pistol and popped away at the lemon. The ball entered fairly in the centre and eat the lemon in two. During the perform ance, Mr. Lennox, on whose head the lemon was, stood with his arms folued and coolly smoked his pipe. Had ho moved an inch, or had the skill of Whitehead failed, his soul would have been sent instantly to eternity. We scarcely know whom to admire the most, Lennox, for his intrepidity, or the marksman for his skill. Carrying "Rails."—lt used to be said of a person who had been imbibing pretty freely, that ho was carrying " brick," or more, according to the amount indulged in. That phrase has now, in the march of ideas, given place to one equally if not more•expressivc. At Chicago " rail" was substituted for " brick," and now it is said of a man under the influence of liquor that he has got a " rail," or more, on , his back, ac cording to the quantity lie has imbibed.

N. H. The Key to the Weather. A letter of M. Conninek to the Cour rier doe Mlles is exciting great atten tion in Franco. It will be remembered that Marshal Bugoaud proclaimed the discovery of an ancient Spanish mane! script, in which the natural laws which govern the atmosphere were so clearly laid down that nothing was left to chance, and projects could be made with the greatest security. These cal culations, based upon 50 years' experi ence, comprising (300 revolutions of the moon, had enabled the author to foretell the (coathnr to a nicety, and the Mar shal, struck by the confidence with which the - theory was broached, after taking some little trouble to practice the same rule of calculation, found it unerring likewise. M. de Conninck now comes forward with his experience also, and at length we can boast of possessing a key to the pranks of the moon, winch will hence forth render them completely harmless. The weather, eleven times out of twelve, is exactly the same during the whole moon as on the fifth day it on the sixth day it resembles the fifth, and nine times out of twelve it is exactly the Liaise as the -fourth day if the sixth day resembles the fourth. This rule, say M. de Conninck, is found invariable eight months in the year. - The excep- tions have hitherto been October, Feb ruary, March and April.

The Piedmont Independent says : She was in company with several other ladies and gentlemen, but. the water was high and the currents of the two streams so swift that rescue seemed impossible.

(rage.—Tho present Legislature 'has consummated a work which was began at, the organization of th 3 Republican party, and which, interrupted. by acci dent or design, is now ready to be sub mitted to the people. We refer to the alteration of the constitution, so as to adridt negroes to free and equal suffrages with. white citizens. The question has been repeatedly determined by the peo ple upon a direct vote; and upon the adoption of the constitution of 1846 it was negatived by a vote of 228,836 against to 85,306 in its favor. _ “What was characteristic in thisvote was that the counties on Long Island and the Morison, woro a considerable portion of the colored population re main, were hostile to such admission, just in proportion to tho number of this class among thorn; whilo the counties on the northern borr:er and in tbo west', which do not harbor any of this class, were strongest iv tho exproEbion of a desire for this association. " Wo believe the judgment of ad/ people will ho declared now on the side of those who spoke and acted from a knowledge of the unfitness of this class for citizenship. They will recognize 14 az tho first step in an attempt to intro duce an inferior race into our militir4 our jury list,.our common schools and our public offices. If the white electors could overcome their repugnance to such an association, they would still hesitabe from motives of policy and patriotic duty at arming with political power an exceptional class of the popu.- lotion, whose prejudices and sympa thies place them in an attitude of hos tility to the constitution.
