of the original Greek of the. Sermon on the
Mount, by one of the ablest, expositors!of the
Word of God, and oneof the most accomplished
scholars.of which Germany can boast. It is a

In England they cost $3l per annum. The
.Edinburgh Review is the oldest of the four re
printed by the Messrs. Scott. It is the old Whig
organ, started'some sixty years ago by Jeffrey,
Brougham, and Sidney Smith. It is still con , -
ducted with great vigor, being at present edited
by Mr. Reeve.' The London Quarterly, cit pres
ent under the management of the Rev. W. El
wyn, Was originally established and carried on
by Southey, Scott, Lockhart, &c., to. fight the
Edinburgh with its own weapons. It now de
fends conservative principles, and upholds the
Established Church of England. The West
minster Review is conducted with much ability,
and its notices of contemporaneous literature are
especially valuable. It is inimical, however, to
Evangelical and orthodox religion, and even to
Christianity itself. The North British Review, in
its' religious aspects, is the antipodes of the
Westminster. It may be looked upon as the'rep
resentative of Free Church Presbyterian ortho
doxy. Two or three years ago several articles
by Isaac Taylor and others, which were deemed
to be of a somewhat latitudinarian cho.rader,
were admitted to its pages, but their publication
evoked a storm which ,resulted in the Review be—
ing transferred from the editorial care of Profes

• OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
CHAPTER, I.
Our neighborhood is about three miles
from the village, which is situated near the
centre of the township. Said village con
sists of a meeting-house, an hotel—it a
huge sign-board swinging between two lof
ty posts
. is to be credited—a school-house,
which by virtue of a cupola • and bell is
called the Academy—two stores, a tinshop,
a blacksmith shop, and about twenty dwell
ing houses of all .sizes. It was a great
place in the view of•those-who lived in the
outskirts of the township. An election
day, or tovirn7meeting, spent there was a
thing to be remembered.
Our neighborhood was sometimes called
the foui Corners, in -- Conseqteriee the in
tersection of two roads. there.'. The ham
let - which formed its, centre, contained a
tavern—Dobbs' tavern was'. its ~neme=---it
did not aspire to the dignity:dell - hotel—a

boartten which was painted a bottle and a
glass,, the - beer - making its way from the

and three dwelling houses; There were
quite a. number of, farin-houses in the vi
cinity; so that' our. neighborhood could
muster a Considerable.p . Opulation......We
had one thingin which. we Were superior
to the village. Welled within a glint-tern
of a mile of the hamlet,, a. Forge. It is
true, that, during:the . Aintes of which I
write; , it was not often in ' active , operation. '
The - owner had begun -to .speculate in
mountain lands. In consequence thereof,
the ftres of the forge were allowed to go
out,-or -were kindled .only occasionally.
When it was in : operation, .it was a delight
to the boys of-our. neighborhood. When
. it - was not in. operation, it was a conveni
'ent-place of resort, whether a .piece.of. old
iron was wanted, or a meeting was to be
held to decide Upon some , plan of amuse
. meta:
The tavernwas not much:frequented by
travellers. Though it profesSed to furnish
"'entertainment for man and .beast," yet
the entertainment chiefly demanded by
customers was strong-arink. 'lt *as rare
indeed that a stranger sought lodgings for
the night at Dobbs' tavern. It was not
situated on a road that was travelled much;
if it had been, it is doubtful if its appear
ance would have inspired sufficient confl'-
dence to induce wayfarers to stop for
anything but.liquor. The open windows
in Summer revealed unplastered chambers;
and the paper and woolen substitutes for
glass, suggested to the Winter traveller the
idea of abUndant ventilat;ion,lf•" J.
NotwithStanding these disadVantages,
the tavern was seldom without customers.
Their custom was confined to the bar-room;
but there sortie of them were almost always
•
present.. There were three who rarely al
lowed i• day to pass without:meeting:
PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.--SATURDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1860.
Giles Baker, usually called Old Baker,
though he was, not at the time that my
narrative commences, over forty' years old,
was the leading man among the frequenters
of the bar-room. In early- life 'he had
spent some time with a lawyer, in What
capacity was not known—and hence he al
ways claimed to ,belong to the legal -profes
sion. Before his habit ;of intemperance
had beconie so confirmed 'that he was rarely
seen sober, he used to manage cases before
the Justice's Coint which was occasionally
held at the tavern. It was thought in our
neighborhood that he did know a great deal
about law, before he took to drinking, and
in a great measure destroyed hi' mind.
I said he was a leading 'man among the
topers. They
_always received him when
he entered, with some show of deference.
If it was Winter, a place was made for ;him
at the fire, which blazed in the - huge fire
place. If any dispute arose, he was com
monlY referred to for his Opinion.
Daniel Miller was 4 next to Baker the
most important person among the steady
customers of Mr. Dobbs. He was com
monly called Brown Dan, from the swan_
thy color of his face. He was said to be one
of the Hessians •who came over'in time of
the• Revolutionary war. He, had, a good
many war stories to tell, which ,were lis
tened to with great interest till his mind
became so .much weakened by drink that
he could no longer give a , command nar.
rative4 '
Isaac Dingy was the next most constant
customer of the bar. He was a , good lis
tener and a deep drinker. It was believed
by some that he had the best, head of the
three, and that he could talk better thin
Baker, if he had a mind to. Like many
other persons, he gained a reputation. fbr
wisdom by not uttering folly. The're: is
great wisdom in, silence.
In harvest time, nearly all the farmers
got a daily_ or weekly supply of New-
England rum. from Mr. Dobbs, who sold
by the gallon as.wellas by the dram. There
was p° one in our neighborhood wi:41)1;0A
it possible to work ia. the haryeet field
without a jug of rum. There were among
us, two or three members of thechurch at
the village, but they were sincere believers
in the necessity of, rum, to the .farmer dn
ring haying "and harvest.

Recollections of Foreign Travel.
By REV. j. J. MARRS, D.D
In my previous letter I spoke of, land-,
ing on the shore of Asia, , at the mouth of
the Dardanelles, of the journy to the vil
lage of Kallessi '
and introduction to the
Sheik. I found him as 'I , said, surrounded
with ten or more Asiatics, smoking, and
each one talking with the most earnest and
impetuous fluency.
After the most elaborate obeisances CM
both sides, we were finally. re-seated, Arid
then began a very animated discussion in
regard to the relationship existing between
an: Englishman and an American, and the
national peculiarities of each. The Eng
lishman was the grandfather of the Ameri
can, but more arrogant-'the very father
of fists!' The American was much more
courteous and affable—the man of toWs and
graces, like the Greek. I asked the Sheik
to hire us horses fora journey to Mount
Ida, The price for a day's hire , was ten
piasters, (fifty cents.) The Sheik said'he
could find us horses for five dollars each,
a day. As he said Ad's, helooked intently
into ,my face,
expecting, me to become
angry, and to hear me exclaim with vio
knee, ".that to such an imposition I would
not submit!: In making all 'bargains the
Orientals .enact a scene, but Whenhe saw
that I was unmoved, he took for granted
that I was either ignorant or very itch, and
hence•careless about money. He "begged
pardon—he could not afford to hire horses
for five dollars a slay', but for seven." I
I was still placid. -'He !spoke to !his friends
in Arabic, and then boWed;begging my
pardon .again—" it. would, ruin him to hire
[Phorses . 'for seven dollars a day. The war
had drained the land Of - horses ; but for'
nine dollars!, a .day ;be would. :promise ,us:
splendid BtZeas‘;"he *muld obtain them. for
us if he had to send to Constantinople, and
take them from the Stable of the' ! Sultan."
I told him I would consult my ,Trienda;
This was my first lesson in , the•mishrink•
-
ing, rapacity of the Orientals. There is no
fixed price for any' article in the market.
Advantage is always taken of ignorance,
necessity, and-weakness, , ,„
In `front of "that Shop wag - the' buihiery
of the town. The 'carcasses of a goat., a.
lamb, and a hare', we're suspended on hooks
in the wall of the, opposite house. The,
entrails of the slaughtered animals were
lying - in the 'street, and a host of :hungry
dogs• were pulling them in, contrary three-,
tions, and growling and fighting over their
prey. The method. of butchering is'novel,
and possibly' Merciful. There - stands
the street a large , bench; on this is secured
a:long heavy knife, revolving on a hinge.
The animal to, be killed is bpund andplaced,
on the bench a, small m aperture cut above
the knee in the hind leg of the animal, in
this the end of, creed-is placed, and the
bUtcher's boy, blowing into the reed, the
skin is, gradually inflated, and, the animal
sinks;; into a sleep so ,profound, that to
awaken him is impossible. The same; ex.-
perinient has been tried upon min, and it
is found that when the mucous membrane
becomes inflated with air in this 'manner,
human Skill and power' - are vain to awaken.
When the goat is fuly asleep, the large
knife - working's upon a pivot, is, brought
over the neck, and the head. is severed from
the 'body, and the skin is very easily drawn
off. They practice , this method to preserve'
the skin front iujury.by the knife, rather,
than from humane notions. The skins are
used as bottles for oil, wine, and water.
From this villa,ge 'looked - down on the
fields-of Troy. The streions described by
Homer, still flow through the plain, but
not a fragment marks the site Of, the ke
nowned city of Priam. On the sea 'shore
about ; two miles from Troy, are found Sev
eral lofty mounds,' like 'the Indian mounds,
of the.Oreat West. , Two of these mounds
are-supposed to be the:total:lo.of 'Ajax pad
Patreeles. About - five miles from . Troy, or
Bournar-bashi, as it is now called, is a
tumulus, called 'the tomb of Eneas, now a
Turkish burying ground. Here is found
another tuniulus, supposed to be the tomb
of Hector, from the_ circumstance of its
being a barrow-of-loose stones, such as is
described by Hinder:
At' present the site of Troy and the
ground aroundit, iw owned by the British
Consul of Conn Kallissi, and in the streets
of the ancient city , and where stood the
palaces of kings, is now growing wheat,
cotton, tizbacen, and rice. ;This is ,one of
the most interesting , spots in the •worla.
On these hills Xersps was snrounde.d
with his, millions, on the-way ,to the con.
quest .of ',Greece, •and here tradition
affirms thaeafter the review of that I. spler
did pageant;he wept at the'thought that .#1
one hundred years "not one of—those
many thousands would be alive." Here
Alexander the Great wept at the tomb
of Achilles, and put on the armour for
the conquest of Asia. It was on these
hills that the Grecian conqUeror beheld the
Xewish High Priest dressed in his priestly
robes, welcoming him to the dominion of
Asia. To this place came Julius Cmsar, al
ter the battle of Pharsalia.. In the waters
which pour out of the Hellespont was
fought, in the age. of Constantine, one of
the great naval battles of the world.
The ' charm of this region is not only
classic, but sacred. I looked,on the Islands
of Imbros, Lemnos, Lesbos,. and Abe hills
around Troy, with a ,deeper interest, for. on.
all these had gazed the great Apostle of
the Gentiles. And he had left such foot
prints on these:sands that many . a weary
pilgrim lin& joy fbr himself, and hope for
the world. 'ln this region scoured some of
the, most interesting and far reaching
events in the ministry of Paul.
- Under the shadow of Mount Ida, about
three.. Miles from the ruins of Troy,
is found
_All that remains of the ancient
, city , of.Troas. To this place the Apostle
came on - his way to Bythinia, or Northern
Asia: • It does net appear that the Apostle
had thought before this time of extending
his jonrny beyond Asia. There were
great cities, such as Chaleeden and Byzan
tium .to be +isifecl. , Btit.' in , the . Same ;seen e
where Alexander :was called to the con
quest of Asia, Paul, the „man of Asia was
called to be the conqueror, with .different
arms,. Em:ope. There:, 'in a vision •of
the :night, he, sane a i an of Macedonia,
stretching out his hands, and saying,
" come "over and ',lhelp "-ue,"
. like.` one Isla
with a deadly, malady,'en entreating the aid of a
physician. This vision._ was followed. by
plans and toils 4 reOst momentous fbr Eurepe
and the world. •
From here . Paul sailed into Enrope, and
in two”days was in Philippi - , , and :laid the
foundation of. the Church which appears to
have been to - the end a crown of
,lejoicing,;
and afterward followed his labors in
Athens, Corinth, Thessalonia, , &d.
Paul again returned'to i'Troas on 'lila way
to Jeruielem, and tamed for seven days,
and at this time occurred the events re-.
corded in• the 19th of Acts, and he left the
cloakS, book, and parchments," with - Cris
pus, which , heiinstructeA Timothy to ;bring
with.him•to Rome.
There occurred. the long Treaching of
Paul,- -" ready-to'depart- on the . morrow,"
the deep_sleep of Eutychus, the ;fall from,
the upper window, the scene of grief, the
miraculous recovery.
For along time Troas continued to be'
one of -the most important cities of Asia,
and Constantine the , Greatthought serious, 7
ly of makingit the capital ofhis Eastern
Empire-, But, often, taken_an;cl. sacked. by
Goths, ISaracetisenetians; Grusadera; :and
Freebooters of many mimes, it is now a mis- ,
erable ruin, and prosents"but few !fragments
of ,ancient grandeur. ,
The scene as presented to the eye on the
hills over Troy, is one..of the finest visions
of, natural beauty dn, the• world. There
rises • in the Northwest " many wooded
Ida frte the North "snowy Olympus, the
throne of Jupiter," liftS' its head far .abo've,
all the hills, and in, the sunset the icy
crystals -onitSliroiv glitter like a' eiciwn of
diamonds. -Far off to the West rises out
of the sea, Mount Athos, the monarch of
all the scene, lifting its head ten thousand
feet above the ocean, and casting a shadow
in the.' .evening sunset of eighty-five miles.
This mountain one of the great sculptors
.of Greece proposed to hew into a statue of
Alexander;, a river flowing out of . one
a
hand, and' city resting on the , other, with
his feet in the sea, and his head in the
clouds. Such` a 'Mountain Could only TeP
resent the greatest , ofinen. •
On one of these evenings when I stood
on these hights, the sun was sinking-in the
ocean, and the scene had all the novelty
and . splendor of the orient, all nature was
hushed--and -at rest, lying like a lovely
child asleep on the lap of its mother, re
posing in.:(lreamy,t niystie languor. The
hills- looked venerable, and stooping with
age, as if -weary with the -weight of cen—
turies. ''''The Tales,. like - great - birds - With
folded wings and asleep, shadowed here and
thei'e'the waters of the sea. The sun sink
ing in the distant deep, was turning on, the
world the look of the deepest love, burnish
ing with gold the clouds that gathered to
curtain his yepese, and was spreading over
the heavens all rays of splendor and hues
of glory. The •ocean, "like a•sea of glass

THE AMALGAMATION OF
LANGUAGES.
•
There is a growing tendency in this age to appropriate the
most expressive words of other languages, and'after a while
to incorporate them into our own; thus, the word Cephalic,
which is from the Greek, signifying "for the, bead," is, now
becoming popularized In connexion with Er. Spaiding's
great Headache remedy, but it will soon - be used hi a more
general way, and the word Cephalic will beconie as common
as Electrotype and many others whose , distinction as fpreien
words has been worn away by common usage Until they seem
"native and to the manor born." •

Headache is the favorite sign by which nature, makes
known any deviation whatever from the : natural [dad of the
brain, and viewed in this light it may be looked onus a safe
guard. intended to give notice of disease which might 'other
wise escape attention till too late to be remedied', -and itsin
dications should never be neglected. Headaches may be
classified under two names, viz.: Synitometic and Idiopathic.
Sypitomatie Headache is exceedingly common, and is the
Precursor of a great 'variety otdiseases, among which are
APoPlexY,'Hont. Rheumatism and all febrile diseases. In its
nervous term it is sympathetic of disease of the stomach, eon,
stituting sick headache; of hepatic disease, constituting bil
ious headache, of worms, constipation' and other disorders of
the bowels, as well as renal and uterine affections..' Diseases
of the heart are very frequently attended with Headaches;
Antemia and plethora are also affections which frequently oc
casion headache.' Idiopathic Headache is also very common.
being usually distinguished by the name of nervous bead
ache, sometimes coming on suddenly in a'git'ate of apparently
sound health and prostrating at once the mental and physical
energies, and in Other instances it comes on-slowly, heralded
by depression of, spirits or acerbity of temper- In most in
stances the pain is in, the front of the head, over one or both
eyes; arid sometimes provoking vomiting; under this class
may also be named Neuralgia. .
.For the treatnient of either class of Headache,. the Cepha

the most acute' pains: in a few minutes,and by its"siihtle

CONSTIPATION OR COSTIVENESS.
No one of the "many ills flesh is-heir to" is so prevalent,
so little anderstood, and so much neglected, as Costiveness.
Often originatingin carelessness, or sedentarjhabits, it is re
garded as a slight disorder, of, too little consequence to ex
cite anxiety, while in reality it is the piecursor and 'corn
pardon of many of the most fatal and dangerous diseases,
and unless early eradicated it will bring the sufferer to an
untimely gra've. Among-the lighter evils 'of. which costive
nets is the usual attendant, are Headache, Colic. /ileums-.
tiara, Foul Breath, Files. and others of like nature, while a'
long train of frightful diseases, such as Malignant . Fevers,
Abscesses, Dysentery, Diarrhoea, Dyspepsia, Apoplexy, Bpi
lepsy, Paralysis, Ilysteria, , Hypaehondrlasig, Melancholy and
Insanity, first indicate their, pres.ence .in the system, by this
alarming symptom.' Not mnfrequeritly - the 'diseases named
originate in Constipation, but take on an independent, ex
istence unitse the cause is eradicated at an early_ stage:
From all'-these consideratiOns, it- follows that the'disorder
simald receive immediate attention whenever it occurs, and,
no person should neglect to 'get a - box of Cephalic Pills 'on'
the ; first appearance of the complaint, s their timely use will
expel the insidious approaches of disease, and destroy - this
dangerous foe to human life.

T , wenty Million of Donitro Saved.
Mr. Spalding has sold two millions of bottles of his cele
brated Prepared Glue 'and it 'is, estimated that each 'bottle
eaves ateleast ten dollars-worth of broken'-furniture, - thus
making an aggregate of-twenty-millions of.dollars reclaimed
from-total loss by, this valuable-invention. Haring made his
Glue a houSehOld word; he now proposes to do the world still
greater service by curing:nil. the aching heads with , his
Cephalic Pills,-and if they are as gond as his Glue, Headaches
will soon vanish away like snow in July.
OVER EXCITEMENT,
,
and filaments' care and anxiety incident toeless attention to
business and study, are among the numerqus causes of Ner
voualleadacite- The disordered state of usind and body in

energyand ambition. Sufferers by this disorder can' always
obtain speedy relief from these distressing-attacks by using
one of the Cephalic Pills-whenever the Symptoms appear: R

always accompanies and aggravates the -disordered condition
of the brain.
