How thank fld should we berythatme live under good government; utirlollow diligent and conscien tious in tlieliiti t br Means to' Preserve that government in.lti Christian and moral' in tegrity ! The; .author of these ; letters evidently writes•omder great excitement; but; still, his;statetnent of facts may be regarded -as relinble. BEIRUT, SYRI.A,' , imO, J 15; 1860: The war referred to in; i 4 last communi cation is still devastating this beautiful hind, and villages, convents . ' 'and hamlets, which were last month 'the - henies . of a quiet and industrious people, are' now smoking ruins, and their Cormier occupants. who have escaped the sword of the enemy;: are burrowing in eaves and tombs in a starving condition. Many wars have. °centred between the Druses and„Christians of Mt. Lebanon, but the pre.sent struggle is unparalleled in• the history of these people, for its horrible atrocities. The blood of every spectator of the shocking barbarities which characterize this revolution, runs cold with horror, and every American would be glad, to see a Eu ropean occupation of the country, if by such means peace might be restored. I have already ieferred to the Moslem rising at Sidon, and the cruelty of the 3lds lems in shutting the gatesof' the 'citY, when several hundred' Clristian fugitives sought admission, and' were murdered 'in cold blood before the walls of the town. Tyre has also been the scene of great excitement, though a. 9 yet the Moslems have not risen, inhabitants, holiever, so great is the alarm, throw themselves into the sea, and those who have not fled te Beirut, sleep in boats' upon the sea. The American Vice-Consul has requested leave of the Consul-General at Beirut to abandon his post and come to Beirut, as life is not safe, and no protection is given by the Gov ernment. An English yacht, containing the family and crew of Mr. Hervey, its owner, lies off Tyre,. and, has done good service in prevent-. ing au outbreak. As it belongs ;to the Royal Yacht Club of England, it is al lowed to carry cannon, and its crew, armed with revolvers, have protected many panic stricken Christians who haVe applied for refuge. The Consuls at Beirut'continue to hold daily consultations to provide for the safety of the Franki, dud the' relief of the die= tressed and persecuted Christian refugees who are hunted down like dogs. Through their efforts five menof-war have come to Beirut, to protect the Europeans, and to save the 'city if possible. *An English war steamer has- been' sent twice to Sidon and to Tyre_, and yesterday a French gunboat left ior Tyre. We have, now.a Russian and. a French• frigate and- English corvette, besides - a French and -English ganboat,.•so that in. Beirut we feel pretty safe ; for the..Moslems know full well that an insurrection- here would bring the guns of the fleet upon the ; town, and lay it, in ruins. , . But the inland cities are in the, uthiost, danger. Damascus, Aleppo, Hum, and llainoth, are trembling in the balance, and it is believed that every Christian inthese densely populated cities will be killed as soon as any act of intervention -is seen 'on the part of the Europeans.. The fall of Hasheyia,-an. American mis sionarys station, would furnish.ample mate-. rial for a book of horrors. It -contained-;a large Protestant coinniimity, - • and • a •fine church edifice. It is situated near the source of the river Jordan, 'and hid several thousand inhabitants. It was for some' time besieged, •but the contest commenced in earnest on Friday, the-Bth, and contin , ed for three days. The Druses-were• de feated and- driven beaky and the town• was wholly occupied- - by - the Christians. Then came in Turkish treachery: to give - success to the Druses, The; commander of. the Turkish troops stationed.at that place, un der a. pretence of aiding the Christians, induced them. to- feign -. a retreat toward the castle, : promising, to, fire upon ~the . . liruses with his , cannon. The Chris tians did us they were ..desired; the commander fired blank cartidges only twice, and then ceased. The retreat be came real, and the deceived Christians sought refuge in: the mistle,• T.Tpoa their arrival the commander' reqUired them to deliver their arms, which they surrendered to him. He then allowed them to enter alter compelling each one to say, -" May give success to the Sultan."' He gave , ' their arms to some muleteers, under , the protenee, of sending them to Damascus, but- goon after put them in the possession of the Druses. The unarmed were then turned over to the tender mercies of the Druses,. who butchered a large number, and , burned the town, in cluding,all the American church property. Several hundreds of the Chris tians sought rettige with OA Moslem Emeers of Hasbeyia, who were 'enemies of the ;buses. They remained in the palace for several days, when the Emeers were obliged to surrender for want of PrOVisions. Thirty of the Emeers were killed, and more than eight hundred Christians were led out and slaughtered like sheep. Rashcya is another • Missionary station, and contains a Protestant community. Thiy following letter from the Greek Patriarch of Damascus will explain the state of things there. This letter was -addressed , to the Consul of Damascus : -- To the V COnSitixit Damaimis : Stn:—You must 'Lrie Weard of the com plete destruction of the Christians of Rasheya, as it clearly appears from the let ters received yesterday from the remaining portion of them, a copy of which is herein enclosed, from which you may learn the true fitots in the case. 1 beg ofyou,, in the, name of Jesus our Lord, to use .your Chris. % tian zeal in aiding those 'pain' Christians whose lives are in danger of Drusea and starvation, as you see from their letter. This is the time of compaision, the time of inerby, the time of Christian Zeal. we beg you to' help them. The Christians of letbeiya - have been also attacked by the Druaes tinitittt Sunday, arid they are now besieged by - theth. If they 'receive no help' 'they will perish. Dantagrus; Jitne'9VlB6o.

What a fearful horrible record is thisl Information was received the following day, that all had been killed, and ihe Christians of Rasheya have, been blotted out of existence... . HAD.3I. BEMUT, thne 16, 1860 The plot thickens—and- I fear that , the doom of this 'people is sealed. About one , hundred of 'the Hasbeyini - arrived' here yesterday' with blood-Stained garments and with a bloody history of 'their sufferings . and 'the 'fate of their companion's. COD' coaled quiderihe dead bodies of . more than. twelve 'hundred of their friends and .rela— fives; they spent a long and terrible night; —and, after the fiends who had accomplish ed this awful tragedy 'left the' spot, suppo sing that none had . escaped` to'the tale,, these fugitives reached the coast near Tyre, and came to Beirut in boats. It waa a'sad story they told ; and as they, counted over to ;our devoted missionaries the'names of the Protestants whoin theY saw butchered in cold blood,. the hearts of these pions men sank within them.: But two of the entire Proteitant community were living when the refugees left Hasbeiya, and these were dreadfully wounded,perhaps fatally.. The American church and all the Mission property was''- consumed, and those benighted natives who had been brought to a knowledge of the truth by the American, missionaries, 'and so instructea by them as. to-be able to sustain:their, own pulpit and , sehobls with native preachers and teachers;,'Were all "cut ''down and the Protestani misaion blotted' out 'How mysterious are the ways of ,Providence Hasbeiya contained about six thousand inhabitants, and was . governed' by a. family of Aloileuta Princesof the great' Shdhaab family. Seventy Princes of this name were also.: murdered, together with 1 the Moslem Judge, his son and about thirty other Moslems, who had incurred 'the—ha tred of the Druses., The large distriet of IVleij Ayum,. West of Hasbeiya, contains. ; a ,number of Chris tian : villages, and is governed by aMetouali Chief. known a s Mohammed Bey: The Metinialis are followers of, Ali, the grand son of Mahome't, and are - .often at enmity with the Moslems. They have allthe cun ning and the, treachery of the latter, as may be seen in his treatment of the Chris tians. This Chief promised to protect the Christiani of his district from the Druses provided they Would pay him the',sum of one hUndied thousand piastres, which they collected'afid paid. • He then'coolYinform ed thein'that'he had received' orders from the Pasha not; to resist the Druses 'nor in terferiivith them, and they rinist take care of theuiselves. It is feared that they have shared the fate• of the Hasbeyans Or this. The convents that have heretofore afford ed so much aid and comfort to weary- pil grims and travellers, have been plundered• and burnt, and, those comfortable looking old monks have been slaughtered without Mercy. Deivil Convent of Salvation, which stood upon,a peak , of Leb anon near. Sidon ' was not, only attacked and plundered, but literally pulled down, and forty-five of its inmates murdered. , The Priest . Basilius, in his letter of ap peal to the Consuls, says: " Gur Convents have been plundered and burnt, and prop erty that hag remained in the possession' of our order for more than one hundred and seventy-five yaara, has been carried away, and bur monks have been 'slaug,htered' like, lambs, and none have 'been saved' but those whose life is destined tn belong: These' things are pleasing neither to God, nor al lowable-by the, justice of governments!' The Drimes •of the Lebanon range of• mountains, which ,look down npon the sea, are one Or two degrees ,removed: from bar= barians—but their' - co-religionists` from the llourani are fiends incarnate. A body of these 'Wretehes, while on the march frank their, district to the : siege 'of Zahleh, stop ped at the village of Kenaku, near'Damas ens, for refreshment: On 'learning. that abbut one hundred Christian refugees had sought the protection of the Sheiks of the village, Sheik Kange, the Drineleader, mended them to be brought forth, and the Moslem Sheik; trembling for his own like, allowed them to take fifty, of tliefighting, men out in front'of the place -add there in' sight of their wives and children, saw their heads cut off and thein bodies muti lated. The bloodthirsty Sheik Kange then pro ceeded on his way. He is also reported to haVe -planned the massacre . of Hasbeiya. However thiSlmay be, he was 'killed- in 'the attack upon '..Zahleh, and -his troops were completely/ ranted:. 74ahleh,l , tlfe- , unconquered, ,is now the only stronghold •of the - Christians. From all the neighboring. villages, men, women and children have "sought refuge in. thin mountain city, awl-hope 'hangs suspended upon the result of .this siege; ..-, Twice have the Christians re pulsed the besiegers . r.but still:they gather in greater numbers from .every Druse dis trict around that, devoted city. If it falls, the ,Christiau power will, be, crushed.
