COMMENTARY ON ECCLESIASTES, WITH

Dr. Hengstenberg has long occupied a promi
nent plea° among the interpreters of Scripture.
His' voice has been' loudly 'raised against the
Rationalism of Germany, and his works are held
in high estimation among Evangelical expositors
of 'the Bible. In ;the present work he exhibits
bht usual Mean'', compreheniiveness, andpower.
With vigordus hand he gives us his view of the
time at which the Book of Ecclesiastes was writ
ten, the circumstances that called it forth, its
actual import, and the lessons to be learned
from it. This Commentary, like all the
anther's works, is highly suggestive, so that
it will be greatly prized even by those who will
not agree with every sentiment found in the
volume. In addition to the Commentary on
Ecolesiaste,s, it contains valuable Treatises on
the Song of Solomon, the Book of Job, the
Prophet Isaiah, the Sacrifices of Holy Scripture,
lew'S aturthe Chrietian'bhurch, that add
much to its worth.

of the infidel, to establish the wavering, and to
strengthen and encourage the weak and timid.

Mr. Annan has been long known as a clear and

state of the Arminian Methodist controversy.

For the Preebyterian Banner.
Itebolleetions of Foreign Travel.
BY REV. J. J. MARKS, D.D
When I left my own country, I had been
for many years in feeble and declining
health, and it became evident that I must
for a season seek repose and change, or die.
Those in whose judgment I reposed the
greatest confidence, advised a voyage across
the Atlantic, and a visit to the wonders of
the old world. The hope of visiting those
venerable historic lands, and of renewing
my youth in the stimulating scenes of for
eign countries,,,relieved the.despondency of
sickness, and prepared me 'with less pain to
bid farewell to friends and home. I have
no intention to recall the painful experi
ences of the Atlantic. I came to Old Ocean
for relief, and passed out of his hands. fee
ble as an old man, tottering and leaning on
a staff.
First I visited that, most balmy of
all lands, Ireland, and experienced a generous
hospitality, which I can nover_forget,. _
all the countries;rturope, Ireland will
be most likely to benefit, an invalid. The
air is bracing and healthfid, the food
simpler mid. nutriciois.• The scenery of
the Island is beautiful, and, sometimes
grand. 'Brit the great charm of Deland is
its 'inhabitiAnta—gay in poverty, contented
and happy in rags. ; Credulous as children,
they live in their own world of marvel,
lerrend, and myth. The very " bulls" of
the Irishman are only the utterance of a
nature full and rich beyond others. Gifted
beyond all other men with, eloquence for
word-painting, for dratuatizing a scene, for
taking off a character by .a look and ges
ture of the hand, for keeN repartee—wild
and impulsive as a child, superstitious as
an Arab—in nothing is this man eornmon.
If we preached as eloquently as an Irish
man begs, thousands would listen to us with
tears. If we had the dramatic powerwhich
an Irishman displays for the benefit of his
wife and children, or.in front of the village
tavern, the world would applaud us as the
greatest Of actors. Every hill, has its
legend, every river and brook its story or
song, every mountain its saint and hermit,
every lough and bay its adventure and story
of wonder. Of many of the streams of the
Green Isle, St. Patrick drank, and the
lakes became rivers' folloWing the wave of
his staff. Many of the streams gushed
forth :At the stroke of the Saint's wand, and
its "holy wells" have more miraculous
power than the, pool of Bethesda.. But the
story and legend are nothing, except as told
by an Irishman •; coming from him, they
are irresistably rich. I have great reason
to be grateful .to the Irish,'and I bear in
lasting remembrance their unselfish inter:
est in a stranger.
Frorn Ireland I went to. Scotland, wan
dering through most of her noted places—
" doing the lakes," as the English say—
lingered fora time in Edinboro', and went
thence "'from 'York to London, and from
London to Havre by way of Southampton.
In Havre, myself and daughter were most,
kindly received by the Rev. Dr. Lacotelle
and his family. My plan at this time was
to place-my daughter at school in Switzer
land, and pursue my travels in Asia. I
was in no' condition to venture the dangers
of an Asiatic travel alone, but I could hear
of no American traveller in the places
where I had been, turning his face East
ward. I met those who would spend the
following Winter in Palestine and Egypt,
but the intervening. Summer and Autumn
in Germany, S*itzerland, and France. My
desire, however, *as to first see the Orient,
and then visit the countries of Europe on
my return. I was too unwell tujustify me,
in the judgment of my family and friends,
in venturing alone and eompanionless into
the great wilderness of desolations, where the
future was dark to me, and I knew not whence
to turn. By an event apparently most
trivial, the gate of the East Svcs thrown open
t 6 ine. I had made arratigemeritilo leave
Havre for Paris. on a - certain day. All was
ready at the time for starting, 4 P. M.
But my laundress could not be found, and,
many garments were in her hands. Ser
vants ran in all directions, but she did 'not
make her appearance until too late for the
train =that day, .In consequence of this
delay, I accepted an invitation to dine with
Captain Johnston, an American gentleman
residing in Havre. At his table I met
several American Captains, and emote ,
these Captain Dixey,. of the ship, H
Dixey. Captain Dixey was at this time
engaged in 'the French service: "and-'his
ship; as ereployed in carrying the material
of war to the Crimea. During the cenver
salon at the dinner-table, Captain Dixey
learned that. I wished to visit Jerusalem,
and spend some months in the =Eastern
Isles, and also visit the points of intereifon
the sheres nf, the Mediterranean, With
that generosity which is preeminently
characteristic of sailors, he invited me to.
come on board his ship and go with him to
Constantinople and the Crimea, promising;
me all the care that was possible.. My con
versation with the Captain convinced me
that he was a'man of eminent worth eand
piety. Before we arosefrom the table, thie
arrangement was definit6ly made, The ship
was to sail in ten days. Thus the disap
pointment of the morning changed my
programme of travel, and was the hinge• on
which turned all the movements of the fu
ture for years,. After this I hastened into
Switzerland; plaeedray.daughter at school
in Gene Vii, and returned to Havre before
the day of departure.
I was the only passenger in a new and
beautiful vessel. Captain `Dikey had been
a sailmfrom his boyhood, and his earliest
memories were of scenes on tho ocean.
His father was a sea captain. He had been
many times across the Atlantic, in the
North and South Pacific, and bad been
often to China and India. From all these
lands he bore away reminiscences of ad
venture. As a class, sailors retain the
freshness and vivacity of their youth in
their age, and of all men they are the most
interesting story tellers. Their yarns are
often threads of gold. The first mate,- Mr.
8., was from one of our Atlantic cities, the
son of a sea captain, and .the only child of
his parents. He had early broken away
from the restraints thrown about him by a
pious mother,-and had become a wanderer.
He had been a sailor before the mast in
many seas; for a time a miner in Califor
nia; then the captain of a steamer on one
of her golden streams... A. • man of magni
ficent frame and herculean Strength, a
trainedhoier, he had venturedeverywhere ;
won - money in gambling saloons in San
Francisco, and fought his way out when
dirks and revolvers were as numerous as
shilialehs at an Irish Pair. From the love'
of adventure Mr. B. • was • agaial on , the'
ocean, and on his way,ttr a sea over which
he had never sailed. Ifehad the greatest

When all the bloody .noses and tooth
lamenting worthies were arraigned before
the police judge to answer for their misde
meanors and it appeared in 'eVidence how
impartially Mr. B. had demeaned himself,
he was generally dismissed with smiles and
compliments, and received an invitation to
dinner on the following day. On ship the
first work of Mr. B. iris to decide the
question of supremacy by knocking, down
each sailor in order. The earliest possible
opportunity ,was seized to give to every
man an abiding impression "of the re
quired submission. These interesting dis
plays of power were invariably made when
the captain was not on deck, and it is a
point of honor with a sailor "never to com
plain. I have seen eminent surgeons,Who;

from .head to foot, were evidently, thinking
that you were a fine specimen for the dis

his own mind where that man could be
struck with the best effect.. When a new
company of sailors 'were piped up and
marshalled before him ' and as he , surveyed
them man by man, he , decided where it was
best to give each the coup de main," and
from that moment it waw only a'question of
time. This man was by no Means a savage
brute. He had received an eiCellent edu
cation, and read many books; would min

During the last fourteen years, scone 'four hundred patents
have been grunted on inventions designed to lighten the
drndgery of family Sewing,• and Mitre Same time to produce
' a macb me that. could be profitably usedi for t manufacturing
purposes; but strange to say, out of this large number of
Sewing Machines,- only' some half dnzen have been proven' to
he of practical value; and of this small number, not one has
combined the of a family and Manufietuilirg
, 14 ,,,hine, There are ;large, heavy, noisy,-,cumbrous, and.
coMplicated machinw, designed for heavy work,, hat answer
the' purpose very
: well; while them are others of light
mechanism and delicate adjustments, which perform on light
work . to advantage;-. and while the former' are exclu
eively.-.conbned to heavy work, the. latter are ef . little value,
erldrint on light fabries. Therefore I take great pleaeure in
stating the important fact that Mr: How", the original in
ventor of Sewing . Machines, has recently perfected his Shuttle
Machine' scras to dornbine, in a much smaller space' and' with
fat lean machinery, the strength and durability of the mann
! fabtaring machines, and at the same time possessing that
delicacy of , movement and ease of operation peculiar , tot the
family machine, and which renders this the only machine In
market capable of working equally ideib the tiOittat dnif
heaviestfafrrice, and is tkereforel designed:for

they will be fully warranted for one or more years:. They
will etich, hein, tuck, cord, bind; gather, and fell, without

great beauty. strength, and elasticity, and which, cannot be
