Bow PBAOSI WILL TEIIOI4IPII, an Address before the American Peace Society, at its Twonty-ninth Anniversary, Boston , May 26th, 1857. By .Rufus P. Stebbins, D.D. This address is worthy of being circulated and read, throughout the land and the 'world. It ably pleads the cause of religion and humanity, and presents evidences of progress, and grounds of hope most cheering. Wars shall cease. They are now far less frequent than formerly, and greatly mitigated as to cruelty. Non belliger ents are respected WI to their persons and-prop erty. Captives are treated humanely. Difficul ties' are often settled by mediation. The good offices of friendly powers are tendered and ac cepted. It is the Gospel .'bf peace which is pro diming the change, and the Gospel spirit is to pervade the earth. The nations will then learn war no more. Peace: Societies are one of the means of influence; but the main instrumentality is Rut forth by the evangelical spirit, in Church ordinaidei, Sabbath Schools, Missions, Bible and Tract Societies, Ito. Let Christians, both politi cally and ,religiously, do their proper part, and the day .of' triumph will hasten. TINT LljiE ur THE HOLY LAND. By William C. Prinze,: Author. of "Boat Life in Egypt and Nubia," •'!Phe Old House by the River," &e. 12m0., pp. 498. New <York: Harper 4• 13r05., Franklin Square. 1857. Much as we were pleased with Mr. Prime's "Boat Life in Egypt and Nubia," which we ad mire for its fresh, sketchy, and effective descrip tions, we are still more delighted with his "Tent Life in the Holy Land." There are two ways of 'writing travels. A Tourist who Passes through Europe may supply himself with Murray's Hand- - books, and a good Gazetteer. By the aid of these works, an ordinary writer may, after spending a few hours in each locality of note, set forth a, wondrous array of antiquarian, biographical, his torical, and topographical knowledge which Will surprise the thoughtless reader. All this, how ever, is fully comprehended by educated persons who are aware of the facilities which London puts within the reach of travelers.. Another 'way, and the one adopted by Mr. Prime, is to make no pretence of inordinate information, but to pour out 'lds impressions as they were felt when he looked upon the scenes, which he de scribes. This work on the Holy Land is a sequel to that on Egypt, and we have great pleasure in commending them, both to our, readers as well worthy their perusal. Our readers may remember that in noticing Harper's Magazine, a few months since, we adverted with digtinguished approval, to an article on Palestine, in which there was given the most valuable Oland-plan which we had ever ueen of the " Holy Places " in Jerusa lem. This plan we are happy to find, was taken from the volume before us, and will be found at the commencement of the seventeenth chapter. There are Strange coincidenoes in literature, as well as' in other things. We remember several years ago being puzzled with a description of the church erected at' Jerusalem, by the Empress Helena, written by: Adamnan, the abbot of lona. The narrative is given by Bede in his Ecclesias tical History, Chap. XV. Modern readers, whose Ideas of churches are fashioned by what they see in this country and in Britain, will find the nar rative utterly unintelligible; but Mr. Prime's book removes the difficulty, and makes the whole matter plain ; and thus it is that an American traveler in the nineteenth century, unintention ally throws light on a most valuable relic of an tiquity from the hand of an Irish Monk, the com panion and biographer of Columba, who labored among a barbarous people more than eleven cen turies ago. • Again we commend this , book to our readers. ' TeX PUBLIC Olt-ATiONS of DEMOSTHENNS, in two Tole., 12mo. Edited by Charles Bann Kennedy. Yel. 1., pp. 820; Vol. IL, pp. 418. New York: Harper t Bros. 1867. Here we have two volumes additional of Harp ers Classical ;' , Library, displaying, if possible, more of that high literary excellence and pro found classical research which have character ized the former volumes. The first volume con tains the Olynthiacs, the Philippics and his Let ters. There, are, five Appendices given on sub jecta connected with Athens and Greek affairs, in the days of •Demosthenes. The second volume is occupied with, the Orations on the Crown and on the Embassy. Jon valuable Appendices are given in this volume, and we do not hesitatein saying that we lave, never seen such scholarship dis played in, the, editing of any work. THE Paorrasoa ; A Tale. By Currer Bell, au thor of " Jane Eyre," "Shirley," " Villette," &a. 12mo, pp. 330. New York; Harper 4- Bros. 1857. We have never hesitated to avow our contempt for the great mass of ordinary trash which, in the form of novels and tales, is continually issu ing from the press. At times, however, a work of power appears, which, from its merits, com mands attention. Such have been the produc tions of the Brant° family: With glaring-faults in taste and construction, still they, have arrested the attention of grave and learned Reviewers ; and now that their authors have passed away, they have made the old parsonage on the bleak hill side of Haworth, in Yorkshire, famous. The fact is certainly worth noting, that so long as these talented sisters drew-on their imaginations, they could find no publishers for their works ; but as soon as they began to, embody the strange incidents of their own, extraordinary lives, and thus approach to the actual and real in life, they fontidzziot.only'men to publish, but thousands. to read their productions. Tan Fonrcros or Gnat:moan. By Charles Lever, author of. t 4 The Daltons,9 Bvo., pp. 180. New York: Harper f Bros. 1857. The success of Lever in delineating Irish char acter in connexion with military adventure, has been unbounded. In' his '.prefice to this work, he confesses that he has aspired to success in another department, and accordingly we have a fiction in high life, in which ditilomats, ambas sadors, and public functionaries prevail. Lever can write nothing without force, but we are in clined to think that the public will prefer him when he keeps to his own department. Tire Beaux! RYZ. A Sequel to " Lavingro." By George Borrow, author of "The Bible in Spain," "The Gipsies in Spain," &c. Bvo., pp. 141. New York : Harper i f Bros. 1857. The reading public are familiar with the pecu liar style, and strange wanderings of Borrow. The work before us we have' not bad time to ex amine, but we see that in:the Appendix he en deavors to set the Duke of Wellington in what he thinks is, the right place, namely, below Nelson, Napoleon,mand several oft Napoleon's Generals, but considerably higher than the English Whigs and Radicals estimated him.

For the Presbyterian Banner and Advocate Intemperance—Another Remedy Needed. MR. Enrrou :—A. few months since, your truly talented correspondent, W. M. F., in peculiar perplexity, asked you as a Doctor to prescribe for hina ; and it is hoped that your admirable preseription may effect a per manent cure. Having' succeeded so well in one instance, you will not be displeased if I also should ask for your attention and pre seription; the more especially as your cor respondent and myself attended for many years the same humble log.school, before we left the paternal roof, and often spread our mathematical calculations on the same slate, and, had the same hills, and valleys, fields, meadows, and shady play-around, to give us our incipientimpressions "valleys spread forth," and "gardens by the river's side," and "trees,; of lignaloes which the Lord bath planted," .and " ; cedar trees beside the waters." . : {See Num. xxiv : 6. Churches sometimes become fearfully dis eased. I will now present before you the case of a diseased church. You mast not, however, believe that I am trying to give a perfectly accurate picture of any particular church -known to me : you must take it for granted that memory and imagination have each a hand in the painting that'now passes before your eye. Suppose that a young minister settles in an old and large congre gation, and a village of about six hundred inhabitants, and before he reaches the'place, he has heard of its peculiar intemperance. He commences his pastoral labors. He walks out on the cold and stormy evening, and finds the hoary father on the side of the road, bent down in the mud, unable to walk any further, who a few hours ago was able to walk to the drarnshop in the village; and on another evening sees the young man riding out, scarcely able to keep himself on the horse. One of his elders assures him that a great portion of his church use alco holic drinks aLmost daily, and that some of his, members ,can scarcely ever be found completelysoberiand that he must be very care ful how he touches the subject, or they will be offended. He seeks a conversation with a whiskey-vender, and this man assures him that his own members, yes his elders, are doing more to support intemperance than any other class of men. He seeks conver sation with the Tilling men of his church, and learns that there is scarcely one young man in the village who does not go to the dramshop. In such circumstances, you will, of course, say . that it is his duty to lift up in the pulpit, the voice of earnest warning against the teniptations to intemperance." He preaches; and his members, some of them, go away mad from the' church, and assert that a few more such sermons will burn 'the church down. He finds among his members an ignorant prejudice in favor of intoxicating drinks, of which he some some months ago. had no suspicion. His preaching has stirred up many to discuss the subject; hut the drinking in the church does not appear to be checked. Most re spectable, men assure him that his members still continue to drink, until their walk is almost changed into a stagger. He feels that the rod of discipline must be used on his members. Still he would not, have his members breught before the Session for trial, if it, is possible to apply a milder remedy. Itmourns to him that it may be the most prudent muse to forget the past, but assure his members from the pulpit that such drinking cannot be suffered any longer to escape diecipline. The church appears to him to need some expression of correct sen timent, ftem the Session, on the subject of temperance- He has never yet had one doubt but that the majority of the Session cordially stand by him in all his preaching andprinciples. Ileconsequentlypreparessuch a document as, the following, calls his elders and deacons together, and asks them to put their names to it. Now attend, -Mr. Editor to every virbrd. "The 'officers of this - Presbyterian - church, the elders and deacons, feel them selves required by their present peculiarly trying circumstances, such as the. most de- • plorable prevalence of drunkenness in our community, the popular favor which appeafe to encourage the evil rather than rebu it, the wretchedness which it is causing in many families, the most dangerous tempta tions which it is placing before our beloved youth;the bad name which it, is giving us abroad, and the ` insinuations that many of our church-members are deeply involved in the guilt, to explain to the public what is the ground which they occupy,, and which they believe the church ought to occupy on the subject of temperance: " We believe that an article may not be forbidden by any law of health, or any ex press injunction of the Bible, yet Christian charity, or a kind regard for our neighbors' welfare may cause Christians to feel it ,to be their duty to abstain from any use of it. If there was '"a, strong probability that a brother wired be offended or injured there by, the Apostle Paul would never either eat flesh or drink wine. "We believe that even if it could be proved that the use of the present popular intoxicating drinks does send some little streams of health and comfort through socie ty, yet it must be obvious to every ,one, that it produces a thousand fold more crime than morality, and disease than health, and de gradation than refinement, and perdition than comfort, and it is supreme stupidity to bring on ourselves one thousand curses for only one comfort, when each one of the thousand more than overbalances all the com fort. That use of intoxicating drinks, which is considered by its friends, as social, moderate, and polite, if we consider the evils that grow out of it, and that could never commence without it, must be condemned. "If we may believe able physicians and physiologists, it is unquestionable that no dram of fermented and distilled liquor is ever taken into healthy stomach, without in jury to it and to the' vital functions generally. It produces an unnatural ex eitemang, and the system must suffer. There-is no health or enjoyment or comfort in society,. which requires <the existence of dramshops or taverns supplied with whiskey. Leonard TEE PRESBYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE We have torrents of woe from our drinking ' places, without even one drop of benefit from them as 'drinking places. " It is, accordingly, our most decided judg ment, that the members -of our church should most conscientiously abstain from all appearance of countenance, or support to the present use of intoxicating drinks. By all• that love which the Christian has for the kingdom of God, and the perishing souls of men, we do urge it on all our members, that they never enter a dramshop or tavern to obtain a dram, and that they forbid dram drinking at their houses—that they never mingle their conversation, jests, and lauglia or smiles with the company of men engaged in 'drinking, as if they could find it pleasant to be in such company—that they set them , selves against the furnishing of liqudr when I sheep are washed; that they never admit one drop of liquor to the harvest field,; and that, in all possible ways which are they express their abhorrence of intemper ance. • We ought to be willing to endure an immense 'self-sacrifice that this evil may be removed, but there is no self-Sacrifice in all that we are now asking. iSiottling are we asking from you except to abstain from scan dalously indecent conduct,. and show your disapprobation of such conduct. If you cannot do this much for the cause of Christ, consider it as most doubtful whether your hearts have ever known the love of Jesus. We desire to see our churoh wash herself pure and spotless from this abomination ; we desire to see her cast out all guilt in this matter from her bosom, as the HebreWs cast out all leaven from their houses at the Naa r over." "signed.." The youthful minister now says to his elders and deacons r This paper is now sub mitted to you; perhaps some things should be substracted from it, or added to it, or changed, but I do want some such :a paper as this, subscribed by you, to read from the pulpit, and prove that you hold up my hands in opposing intemperance. The elder to whom all the others look as their leader, objects strongly to, the statement that able physicians and physiologists testify that a healthy stomach is always injured by a dram of fermented and distilled liquor. The min ister, then explains that , no wine mentioned in the-Scriptures, was ever alermented and distilled liquor, that new wine contains no alcohol, and old wine is fermented but not distilled. • He then brings several books into the meeting, and reads to, them the fol lowing, and many similar authorities : The testimony of Sir Astley Cooper :-- "If the poor could see the white livers, the , dropsies, and the shattered nervous systems, which I have seen, as the consequences of drinking, they would be aware, -that spirits; and _poisons are synonymous terms." Suppose that the minister reads to his elders and Aeacons, many such authorities; and gives them the evidence of Dr. Beau inont,in relation to the evil effects of spirituous liquors on the stomach of Alexis . St. Martin, and then reminds them how peculiarly deist= germs intoxicating liquor now, is, if, the're ports are true, that strychnine and, other poisons are used in its preparation. Is not the • minister now pursuing a' judicious course to bring the elders and church to feel and act as they ought? Can you,. Mr. Editor, think of a better remedy for a church that needs reform ? Think not, Mr. Editor, that all this is im agination's sketch. Traveling in' the West a few weeks since, I heard of a church, the life of which depends on a distillery ; and a minister who preached boldly against the distillery, could not preach again. If our churches are coming to this, is it not high time that we open our eyes 7 Give us the voice of earnest warning from your lofty place on Zion's walls. M. IL M. ler t4e "fottltif(+ Par the Preabyterian 13anner and'Adiocate MY REAR LITTLE COTIEINS:--It has been my intention, for some time past, to write one , of my familiar letters to you; but my time has been occupied so constantly,. that I have not had an opportunity of so doing. Well, Spring did come once more, and the Summer begins, and the trees are green, and seem to feel so hippy when the wind plays among their branches, and the sweet little birds , sing their morning and evening songs in their lofty boughs. Children do you ever think that the trees are living objects—that they breathe and drink as you do ? Perhaps some of you have never heard of this. I will tell you' about it. Trees and plants are fur nished with roots, which creep along under the ground, and their use is to furnish food or nourishment for them, while growing. From the root there comes a stem, and after a while the green leaves begin to show themselves. The use of the stem is to sus tain the leaves and branches and to com municate the light and air to the roots. , Botanists say if a plant is watered with any colored liquid, it will, after a, while, show that the fluid has ascended into the stem. The,leaves are the lungs of the plant; they convey the air to all parts of the plants, and also throw of all gases which are in jurious to them. Did you ever hear of the " Banyan tree,, of Northern India ? Travelers say that the branches that grow from the trees, after they become of a certain length, bend down to the ground and take root again. Thus, from one tree, after a while, a whele, forest arises. The Hindoos think it is a holy tree, and plant it near their temples. I have heard of some cases where it has served for a temple, it being capable of ac commodating several thousand people be neath its wide branches. I will tell -you of a friend of mine who has two boys, and a little. girl, :who are passionately fond of flowers. These children were in the habit of going into the garden and watching the gardener as he took care of his beautiful flowers and vegetables. George was very kind to them, and used to answer all of their questions, and would often give them some choice flowers for their Ma, who was in delicate health. • One morning the children came into the dining-room in great excitement, to ask a great favor of Papa. Harry, who was, the eldest, wanted to be heard first, as did Paul, who was two years younger. Little Ella, who was sitting on her father's knee, opened her large blue eyes in astonishment, wonder ing what they wanted in such great haste. "One at a time, my dears," said. Papa. ( 4 Well, sir," said Harry, "we want to know if you will please be so kind as to buy some hoes :and< rakes, and a shovel, and a wheelbarrow, for us? George says we may have the ground behind the kitchen window, for a garden ; and we cannot do any thing until we get these things." " Well, my sons," exclaimed Mr. Grant, "how do I know whether you will use the articles, after they are got, in a right man ner? You will get tired of gardening, I fear, and your gardens will all wither." ":Well, Pa, I'm determined to try," said Paul. " And' so am 1,” said Harry. I must not forget to tell you that these children were in-the country, spending, the Summer months at their place, upon the East river. Their father went down to the city, every morning, to his business, and re turned in the evening ) ; consequently they had to wait a whole day, until near dark, for the things which they had asked for. Their kind Pa told them he would pur chase these things, and bring them home with him at night. After bidding them good-by, lie left them to go to the cars. The boys, full of their garden schemes, went out to consult George, as to where they should plant their respective seeds. The day passed merrily away, until the time came for the cars to arrive at the depot. After obtaining -permission from their Mother to go down, they put on :their hats and went to the station, and there patiently awaited the coming of the train. Soon the train, came on at lightning speed, and then stopped. A few minutes more and they f *ere on their way up to the house, followed by a porter, carrying, the coveted articles. The next morning they were out very early to try what, or how, and where the things should be planted. George gave them some early lettuce and cabbage plants to set out, and then 'they planted some peas, and potatoes, and beans. A few days . after, some of their friends came to see them, and they took great pleas ure in showing their garden to them. "Paul, if you.' will come over to our house, I?l1 give you some of my tomatoes, and cauliflower plants; to set out." • Paul thanked them, and profnised to go. A few days 'after ,they took a basket, and 7 went over to. Mr. West's,. who was the father of their friend. West invited them to tea; and. after they had stayed un til it was time to return, they started for home. Before they left, they, were supplied with,a large boquet of rare flowers for their mother; and some, strawberries for little Ella. Paul and Henry' had quite a collection of plants for their garden and several slips of bushes to plant in the back yard. L must stop now, and I will tell you in my next how they succeeded with their gardens. You must ask your parents to let you study Botany for I ana sure you will be very fond Good-by. With much love, I am, •as ever, your •affectionate cousin, ANNIE ST. AMITON. .Philadelphia, June 30, 1857. Vottri. Selected for the PFeebyterlan Banner and Advocate Trust in God.

' Canomburg, May 19, 1857. ta i istellantons. Gethsemane. Lieut. Lynch of the United States Ex ploring Expedition to the River Jordan, and the Red Sea, in - 1848, visited the Garden of Gethsemane about the month of May. He says "The clover upon the ground was in bloom. The garden in its aspects and as sociations, is better culculated than any place I know, to soothe a troubled mind. Eight venerable trees, isolated from the smaller and less imposing ones which skirt the Mount of Olives, form a consecrated grove. High above on either hand, towers a lofty mountain,with the deep yawning chasm of J ehosaphat, between them: Crowning one of them is a living city; on the slope of the other is the great Jewish Cemetery— City of the Dead. Each tree in the grove, cankered, and gnarled, and furrowed by age, yet beautiful and impressive in its de cay, is a living monument of the affecting scenes that have taken place beneath and around it. The'olive perpetuates itself. • From the root, of the dYing parent , stem, the tree springs into existence. These, are accoun ted one thousand years old. Under those of the preceding growth, therefore the Say lour was wont to rest; and one of the present may mark the very, spot where he knelt, and prayed, and:wept. No caviling doubt can find entrance here.- The geographical boun daries are too distinct and clear for a mo ment's hesitation. Here the Christian, for getful of-the present, and absorbed in the past, can resign himself to sad, yet sooth ing meditation. The few purple and crim son flowers growing about the roots of the trees, will give ample food for contemplation, for they tell of the suffering and ensau guhaed death of the Redeemer." How TO BE BEAUTIFUL. — If a man Or woman either, wish to realize the full power of personal beauty, it must be by cherishing noble actions and purposes—by having some thing to do, and something to live for which is worthy of humanity, and which, by ex panding the capacities of the soul, gives ex pansion and symmetry to the body which contains it.—Professor Upham.

Lively, innocent, ingenuous, unsuspecting full of kindness to brothers, babies, and everything. They are little human flowers, diamond dew drops of the breath of morn. ` Don't Keep the Bow Always Bent I have been employed these last three hours with John Elliot and other boys in trying how long we could keep up two crick et balls. Lord Minto caught us. He says he must send me on a mission to some very young monarch, for that I shall never have the gravity of an ambassador for a prince turned of twelve. He, however, added the well-known and admirable story of Henry IV., of France, who, when caught on all fours, carrying one of his children, by the Spanish envoy, looked . up and said, "Is your excellency married?" "I am, and have a family, wad' the reply. " then," said the-monarch, I am , satisfied, and shall take another turn around the room ;" and off he galloped, with his little son, flogging and spurring him on his back. I have sometimes thought of breaking my _ self of what are termed beyish habits but 1 reflection has satisfied me that it would be very foolish, and that I should esteem it a blessing that I can find amusement in every thing, from tossing a cricket-ball to ne gotiating a treaty with, the Emperor , of Qhina. Men who will give themselvee' en tirely to business and despise (which is their term) trifles, are very able in their general conception of the great outlines of a plan, but they feel a want of that knowledge which is only to be, gained by mixing with all dames in the world, when they come• to those lesser points upon which its successful execution may depend.

Last week all the old books, papers, drafts, checks, letters, 4c, that had been prederved on file as vouchers in the long course of the immense business of the United States Bank, were sold in a heap in Philadelphia, and purchased by "_a paper-maker, to be -re ground and manufactured into new stock. The whole mass weighed- over forty tons. Ten tons of this vast amount is of correspond ence—autograph letters of the first states men, politicians, and financial men of this and other countries. Draftstipon the Roths childs for hundreds of thousands of dollars, certificates of stock transferred to the leading bankers in Europe, checks and idrafts from Cabinet 'officers, Senators, Congressmen, edi tors of newspapers, Sze., ile scattered, ready for the important transformation into clean, unsullied, white paper. This huge mass of books and papers strikes the visitor with as tonishment. A faint idea may be formed of the colossal character of the institution which at one time occupied so important a part ; in the history of . the country. What a vast storehouse these'papers would be for • in dividual. histories and perchance they w i ould illuitrate some unexplained passages in the history of the political parties of, the day. A msTrriGuasHED CHEMIST, in a recent lecture, while showing that all species of moving power have their origin in the rays of the sun, stated that while the iron tubu lar railroad bridge over the Menai straits, in England, four hundred feet long, bent but half an inch under the heaviest pressure of a train, it will bend an inch and a half from its usual horizontal line, when the sun shines upon it for some hours. He stated that Bunker Hill. Monument is higher in the evening than in the morning of a sunny day; the little sunbeams enter the pores of the stones• like so many wedges, lifting it up. THREE hungry travelers found a bag of gold; One ran into town where bread was sold. He thought, I will poison the bread I buy, And seize the treasure when my comrades die. But they, too, thought, when back his feet have hied, We will destroy him and the gold divide. They killed him, and partaking of the bread, in a few moments.all were lying dead. o world ! behold what thy goods have done ! Thy gold has poisoned two and murdered one. DISTANCE OF THE HOLY Larn).—Such is the rapidity of travel nowadays, that the Holy Land can be reached in less than a month from New York.

By this plan of treatment, the advantage of Medicinal and Sthenotrophic Inhalations is added to that of appropri. ate internal remedies, to renovate and sustain the strength of the general, system, and these with -such mechanical means as the case may indicate, joined to proper attention to exercise, diet, bathing, friction, etc., &a, will not only afford more or lees relief in almost all cases, but will effect permanent cures in many cases, in which only partial and temporary relief could be obtained from any one of thet above measures singly. But although manyotherwise fatal cases of consumption may be thus relieved, there are` still many which have passed beyond hope; and those who are in any way inclined to a disease so insidious, and so fearful ly fatal as consumption, cannot be too careful to give their cases timely attention. The delay eyed' of a few weeks may, in many cases, turn the scale against the patient. Where it is possible, we always prefer to make apersonal examination, and thus ascertain the precise condition of the Lungs as we wish to undertake no awe where we have not a chance of doing good; and we wish no one to consult us who is not ready to hear the truth. Those unable to visit UR will, in writing, be careful to state their cases fully, answering, at length, our published list of questions„ which which will be sent to any requesting it; and the necessary remedies, as well for diseases of the Lungs and Stomach, as for Pemale.Diseases, maybe sent by Express to almost anSipirt of the United States.
